I checked his logs during the upper brack and lower bracket. Only once was he the player who received the 2nd most heals, and out of the 10 maps he played, he was very solid on 9 of them, usually being the 3rd player with the most heals, which is as you say normal for a pocket scout.

So I think saying b4nny was the worst scout in top 4 is pretty unfounded.

That's not really the question here to be honest whether kaidus had a big impact or not on Crowns' playstyle. It's just that in some people's eyes (including me), having a "7th player" as they call it is unfair. To me, maincalling is a mechanic that one player (or more) must master in this game, I don't find it fair to have a coach here to do the work an actual in-game player should do. So if coaching is to be allowed still in the future, I hope it will be only during pre-game and between maps.

I was mostly referring to OW's community actually, I don't know much about their other games, so you have a point here.

Yeah right, I honestly hope i58 is the last time we'll see coaches allowed. Crowns are incredibly talented, Stark is EU's best scout, kaptain best EU's pocket, Raymon best EU's med (sorry kos heh), but without kaidus I'm not so sure they would've won. Might honestly be the first time I think a victory is undeserved. Yes I am salty.

Congrats to Crowns nonetheless for bringing EU a victory after 2 years of domination by froyo, well played to Full Tilt, unfortunately you fell too short in the end.

Well at least they listen to their community, while we're still stuck with a shitty matchmaking system full of cheaters that forces settings on which I run the game on my shitty laptop at 30 fps at best.

Yo it's a fucking meme, don't take this so seriously

[edit] wanted to edit my first post, sorry for the double post

I thought that Full Tilt were gonna choke and that Jasmine Tea were going to get pounded. Too bad their results in scrims came from a Jasmine Tea with 60hz monitors and shitty internet, they ruined my predictions but I don't mind, they offered us some great TF2 :D

I expected XENEX to be the surprise of this lan, with AMS being very strong on lan and their fat scout combo, but I was mistaken :/

I might have a chance to have my Crowns and Froyo prediction correct perharps, we'll see tomorrow

[*] I underestimated them and believed in their magic as of yesterday. I thought they could win it all, but the curse was too strong. </3

Yeah, implying one team that chooses a coach to maincall would pick a retard who knows nothing about the game. When you choose a coach to maincall, I guess every team is going to choose wisely, no way you wouldn't benefit from it.

Some teams have been formed and sometimes not a single player among those teams was a maincaller. In CS for instance, the brazilian team Tempo Storm (now Immortals) had no IGL, which is why boltz decided to take over the IGL duties in spite of having little experience in this domain, and he did great (zews is the IGL now, but boltz did lead for some time). Same goes for FalleN actually I believe, and he's the best IGL in the world.
I might be wrong here, but I even wonder if kaidus' first time maincalling wasn't with BFF in season 14, because until then he had been on teams with established maincallers (Zebbo in season 13 BFF I guess, probably Byte in TCM...) I did some research but can't confirm my claims so perhaps the man himself if he reads me can tell if I'm in the right or not.

Kaidus might have built something with Crowns before he had to retire, but when your maincaller leaves, either pick a player to replace him who has maincalling abilities, or have one of your current players become the maincaller. It's not impossible, it takes work, and a lot of dedication (and a bit of talent), but that's how it should be, that's another component of the skills you have to possess to play TF2 at this level. And you can't just rely on an external person to do this work for you. Like fuck, Epsilon had numlocked and KnoxXx, literally both of them were maincallers, don't go telling me not a single Crowns player has the gamesense and knowledge to actually maincall, to pick up from what Kaidus left behind him.

Maincallers aren't born, they're made, that's why in my opinion coaches shouldn't be allowed to maincall. However I have nothing against coaches if they do their work outside of the game.
