Being a brazilian who doesn't speak italian in Italy, I'll be drinking with more than 30 people who doesn't speak the same language I do.

I hope I will be fluent in italian on my 7th cup.

There are only 2 guys on thid group... Does it mean there is only 1 soldier better in mge than him in the whole world? Holy shit next years invite seems promising. Finally people who can dethrone Platinum and b4nny.

In your opinion, how has the game evolved since 2008? I don't mean by Valves part, but skillwise. Are the top players of 2008 at the same level of today's top players?

Great to see that :D

Great to see this is happening.

Unfortunately I won't be able to watch it due to timezones :(

Meanwhile I came from Brazil to Europe and no snow yet ;_;

I'm putting all my pictures from my trip (which I'm right now) through Europe in a rotation, right now it is:

I'm looking for a headset of around 50 euros. I'm inclined to go with a Siberia v2 (waiting for january to see if its price drops a little) or a Corsair HS40.

Is there anything better?
Also, any shop that ships to Italy besides Amazon?

Thank you

This year will be kind cool as I'll spend in the cold Europe after 23 hollidays of brazilian summer, so I'll be in full christmas mode.

Thanks for the great feedback everyone!

Going with an international cast, we would rather have one in english so we can get a little of international attention for our small scene, but if you want to do a side cast with comp.tf, I'll gladly give you everything you need to make it possible.

@renxzen
I was thinking about that. I even would want to be that guy, but I won't be avaiable. But if the casting team agrees, I will find someone who knows the teams to do it!

Again, thanks everyone for the feedback. After seeing all this interest in doing the cast from many different people, I'll look calmly at it when I get home.

Hello
We down here in South America are trying to revamp our scene after a really big hit it took from DDOSers last year and then lack of people capable and with enough will to organize leagues and events.
One of the things we are doing is streaming matches of the FBTF Cup that is happening right now, some of you must have seen the Esquilado Live stream on the side bar this last month.

The problem is: next week (probably Sunday) we will have the Grand Finals and we, right now, count with 3 people capable of streaming: one of them will be playing the match, the other one will be out of town and the last one (which would be me) will be out of the country.

Would the tf.tv team cast the highest division match? I won't promiss the skill level will be as high as an invite or prem match, as we, as a community, are in a rebuilding stage, but it would be really great for us to have a match casted here.

If I get an yes as an answer, I'll do everything I can to organize this match so the cast can go as smooth as possible.

Thanks.

PS.: Powah is in one of the teams and he may even play the match!

I've recently started being a cameraman when casting South American matches and I'm going full POV, always keeping the camera on the combo in a push, flank in a stalemate and offclass when there is one. When I hear the caster talking about spectating some player, I always check him too. People aren't complaining :D
