Looking back I kinda wish I had finished all the ESEA seasons. :(
Its still possible but I have no motivation at all to put in the time.

The flaw never was the 6's playstyle. It was / is the only option available and there is sadly no better way to play this version of Team Fortress.

The flaw is the way TF2 was designed from the beginning. Team Fortress was always a CTF dominated play style that was proven to work on all levels. Every class had their roles to play and CTF always offered the proper flow for match environments.

By comparison, 6's is a terribly slow style and helped to breed the "stalemate" gameplay you see in every 6's match. Sacrifice plays, leap frog tactics and parking the bus are all a result of slow gameplay.

It also didn't help that no valid CTF maps were created for match / league play in the beginning of TF2.

You calling me a dunsky?

#1 would have been the old excuse used years ago that "He didn't cheat at LAN so he's legit" but COVID took care of that one for us.

I believe it is really just as simple as knowing when the sticky explodes, the blast will typically throw the player in the opposite direction. That way you can aim your pipe to where the blast should propel the player. If you look at every example, this is consistent.

Some might be luck or just random but he is a good enough demo for this to be natural aiming for him.
Doesn't work all the time but when it does, it looks fancy as shit.

the desperation in the Help! Help! yells is so great. I literally spit up some of my coffee watching this clip, rofl

I don't comment on many LFT threads but I remember playing this guy often during Season 3 in scrims/match.
He was easily one of the best medics in the division and is probably one of the most solid medics LFT right now.

It would be a huge mistake to pass on this player. He literally only wants to play medic, what a rare thing.

This sounded fun to dissect, so I will give an honest answer.

In this scenario, you don't indicate there are any larger team oriented goals so I am going to assume this is just a general FFA fight, either live or die situation. If team goals are factored in, the answer could be different.

The only choice is to first shoot the enemy who is currently looking at you, in this case "Player Bob". He is the highest threat because he is looking at you. He can react to your presence faster (visually) than Player Joe who cannot see you (sound only).

Additionally, it is highly likely that Joe is also going to shoot at Bob because he is facing Bob's direction. Your combined attack will frag Bob and Joe will still have his back to you. Also, Joe will have a slower reaction time because he still has to orient his aim and turn to face your attack.

You should always have some advantage over Joe because he doesn't face you but things between you and Bob are fairly even, he is the larger threat.

His age meant nothing to me, he posted a clip he wanted to brag about that was really bad. Thru the years, I've been critical and supportive of tons of clips in this thread.
Honestly, I have/had no idea who this kid is or any history. I've seen a few clips of him in total but if he gets ripped a lot then what you say is fair enough for me.

The amount of terrible in this clip is amazing to me. Did a pencil jump into 6 enemies, all of which ignored you, and managed to miss 2 point blank rockets somehow. While still being ignored, you missed 3 more point blank rockets afterwards on the follow-up kills because of your aim problems. Ended this gem by chasing a scout and jumping him with 0 rockets loaded. The only thing that should be "nooked" is this clip from existence.

Pretty stupid to click it in the first place but what Air said is what I fell for.

You can complain all you want. The bottom line is that RGL has the entire NA 6's community by the balls because no other viable leagues exist.

Until an alternative appears, RGL can continue to add and enforce idiotic rules like this on the player base without worry. They literally have a rule to police scrims as if they own the players, servers and I guess the TF2 program installed on your computer.

a lot of lower div / inexperienced scouts can learn a huge lesson from this short clip. I'd bet that 9 out of 10 try to chase that medic down after he 2 shots the demoman.
Instead, this dude has situational awareness and takes out the most important threats instead of going for a useless medic frag.

Really great clip IMO, doesn't hurt that this dude only missed 1 shot out of 17 either.
