How is this a matter of "it's your turn". I really can't find a lot of information on GXL, but what I can does nothing to suggest it's in any way worth spending 5000+ dollars on. Maybe i52 isn't either, but if one of them is then it's definitely the latter.

Also it's kind of a joke to say "we can't fund a team to i52 cause now we have our own lan". The funding for Americans to come to i46/49 came from Europeans as well as Americans; Europeans who also had broder, punchline, and other top teams to fund to i46/i49, as well as the 300 or so attendees that had to pay for themselves - many of which attended from overseas.

If no American team wants to go then it's a different matter and everything I'm saying should be completely ignored, but given GXL isn't even confirmed to be anything special yet (based on the post on this thread, like I said info seems scarce) I really don't see how it's a contest. Granted there is more time until GXL, but if it's a bust it may be too late to salvage something for i52 by the time you find out.

Edit: Just read there is no PC rental at GXL. Really don't see how this is going to be possible.

Is it time yet?

Good players still play, good games still happen at the top (fuck season 16). That's enough for most people.

Half of TLR is considering quitting, byte is done so it's 2/6. Even if what you described happened (it wouldn't in a million years), those teams would simply fight it out for 2nd place which is pretty dire for anyone interested in watching.

What? Epsi reforming is sick if another international lan is on the way, but you can't make a continental super team and then be surprised when there's no competition from that continent.

If you already spoke to americans then all you had to say was "we did".

I'd be curious to know if they even made sure an american team was actually going to go to i52 first. If not this is going to completely backfire and kill whatever's left of eu tf2.

il say it again HOLY SHIT RISING

How's that making any sense? You go through a dry spell but assuming you are generating the same revenue each month, after the initial delay it will come through consistently...

Check monitor height. Normally more linked with neck strain but if you are shifting that burden onto your eyes then it can be a cause.

Pretty sure it's the last dis match as well.

Pick/ban system would be really interesting if Valve would implement more than a handful of useful/interesting/balanced sidegrades. If TF2 was actually designed around 6v6 then I genuinely think a modified pick/ban system would be amazing. Sadly it's not, so we have to assume Robin Walker has practically no understanding of competitive TF2 or he wouldn't have made such a comment.
