I quit this game around a year ago. Played in ESEA season 21 and afterwards quit. During the end of that season I stopped looking into competitive news and what was happening in TF2 in general. I started playing again and was curious if anyone can give me a recap of everything that has happened in comp tf2 and the game itself. (any major weapon changes?? class changes? has valve helped this game yet?) Also i noticed a bunch of ex invite players are now playing overwatch, why:(

im going to get hate for this but from the standpoint of a serious competitive gamer that is trying to make a name for themselves or win money, Overwatch is a better platform for doing that in every single way.

valve did make a casual mode and i like that since i can skip the usual annoying pub problem of friendlies in my dm shooter
only problem is when i uncheck maps i dont want to play theyll just recheck themselves after a few games anyway so it looks like im playing thundermountain, borneo, standin, and steel

- all 6s leagues use the global whitelist which unlocks a lot more weapons (especially for esea). off the top of my head the standard ones are lnl (seems kinda equal in usage compared to the iron bomber/stock), rescue ranger (not as powerful as some were expecting) and jarate.
- top scouts are kinda moving away from the flank/pocket scout roles in favour of being more flexible
- a quirky team won high with muuki on 'flex' (playing constant offclass basically) with the new whitelist
- rewind lan is happening in cali on the 20th with the top EU and OZ teams (se7en and jasmine tea)

fahrenheiti can skip the usual annoying pub problem of friendlies in my dm shooter
Pretty sure friendlies haven't gone anywhere... Casual doesn't do anything to punish them (and no, not gaining useless XP doesn't count lol)
If anything, Casual made it even easier for them to queue up together and kill team composition more effectively than ever.

And would you really rather trade having friendlies ruin the game like 1 in 20 times for having no more quickplay, waiting in queue for like 5 minutes, shit autobalance, and half the time no one on on team?

Hell yes I would! Casual is a total shitshow. But it's the way the other Valve games do it so it has to be the right way for TF2, right? Right?!

valve has shown they're not interested in our version of 6's and appear to be looking to create tf2 competitive how they think is best.
that means no class limits, no more generalists and specialists, no weapon balancing, and of course CTF and PL played in 6's.

Viperwe unbanned the atomizer and the base jumper for a very short time
I get why the atomizer needed to be banned, but what was overpowered about the base jumper? Was it just annoying to play against?

you could spam it and basically deny people airshots that they would have most likely hit had you been falling normally
