We all play tf2 in some form or another, but what's something else you really enjoy doing besides this video game?
Personally I've made my art hobby into a real passion, and it's one of the main things I do besides play Tf2.

One of my least favorite experiences back in Open Esea was a team-mate who worked night shift.

He would come into the mumble around 5 minutes before matches complaining, go afk to get an energy drink (at least a 7 mile journey through the himalayas.) then come back having forgot to update his client.
He also had to work right after matches, so if things went on too long he'd just leave.

Maybe it was a pug that left its mark on your very soul, or a real awful match.
What's the worst of the worst you've had to endure.

Ill be real, I used to subsist off chicken nuggets and pizza, but after expanding my diet, I've felt a lot better and more energized.
Recommend me something you've found that keeps your energy up and you feeling good.
Bonus points for recipes people can follow.

Dm certainly is important and you need it, but tf2 is so dynamic that you can make up for your lack of skill in some aspects by just being better in others.
Though if we're down to the grit I'd say 25%, growing upwards with more confident playstyles // roles where you can take fights purely on being the stronger dm player.

If you're crouched against a wall directly to your right or left, look at a slight angle horizontally away from the wall and hold your corresponding movement key against the wall awhile moving forward/back, you'll go faster than normal crouching.

Not a perfect example, but here's it being used.

From Open to Invite, there's always gonna be a few exciting matches every season, whether its the best of the best going for that number one spot, a team getting a miracle upset win, or just teams goofing around for entertainment.

What are some of the best matches you've seen played out over the years?

Back in 2011-2012~ I was running hardware that couldn't even touch tf2, and I remember clicking to join a community server, getting up to make food and coming back a solid 15 minutes later to me still connecting to said server. All to enjoy my 10fps experience.

I know it's Highlander but this genuinely was the catalyst that won our team Grand-finals a week later.
This is an actual official that happened.

Playing on a team generally means you've gotta hangout and play with people you may or may not know, what are some of your best team memories or moments that have stuck with you?

I once had a team-mate text the team discord, a picture of himself in the middle of the desert about 30 minutes late to a scrim because he fell asleep on a bus.

Before my move, I was using the Dell S2721DGF, can be gotten for around 350-400 and goes on sale for lower sometimes.
I will say you'll have to fiddle with the colors but besides that it was really enjoyable. Although you'll be taking a refresh rate downgrade, but I do believe there are 240hz models out by now.

Even if I don't follow the scene outside of NA much, would be interesting to see the insights into the top 100 players in EU.
What makes them "top 100" good, wins, intercontinental//normal Lan appearances and possibly the differences to top players in other regions.

Be it tf2 or another game, is there anything you've gone against or struggled with that seems to crop up and ruin your flow?

For me, if I'm against Loch-n-Load, it does not matter how skilled or powerful that Demoman is, I'm dropping to him.

What music do you use to get the flow going?

I tend to go with a Nujabes mix or something chill on repeat.
