I used to train with an olympic Taekwondo coach, although I never really had the drive or talent to achieve what he wanted to set out for me, it was an amazing experience. Probably gonna check out some highlights here and there.

Although not necessarily related, I still chuckle how the international federation for taekwondo is named W.T.F. (World Taekwondo Federation).

Cloud 2's are just rebrands of the Takstar Pro 80 line, except with a removable microphone. It's probably the best headset on a budget there is, including the pretty good Kingston Warranty. It comes with its own USB soundcard which removes the possibility of EMI static from your motherboard or front ports. It also comes with extra velour pads, if leather isn't your preference.

It's literally a steal if you happen to grab one during a sale.

I'm unsure if I have the time and resources to attend a LAN in the US, but I would totally attend a TF2 LAN in Toronto.

ReEnergized blows up like the battery in a Samsung Galaxy Note 7, although the team is on good terms with each other. For people who need a med on short notice, I'm available to play.

Oh shit, even after a scout dies while you are healing him, you're still getting the speed boost. Hot diggity dog.

If you're getting headphones solely for gaming, the M50x's have a pretty narrow soundstage, which doesn't really help with positional audio queues like footsteps, although it is sometimes blown out of proportion when people give advice for headphones.

I wouldn't get the HD598's at full price, they go on sale every once in a while (I know they go on sale for sure during the winter). AFAIK Sennheiser's G4me headsets are rebrands of some of their other headphones, and while pairing up any headphone with a clip on mic is sometimes even cheaper than getting a headset, some lavaliers (clip on mics) have trouble picking up people's voices and background noise, but a mic on the corner of your mouth generally has less issues (cue ModMic plug, although it isn't really cheap). HD280's have a nice tight fit, which help isolate noise, although some people do complain about the tight fit, which might be uncomfortable if you have glasses, or over extended periods of use. I do believe you can bend them to help ease the tight fit into something more comfortable.

As far as closed headphones go, there's the AKG K550/K553/K545 (Hey, I own these!), although a bit lacking in bass, it's soundstage is pretty darn good for a closed-back. Audio Technica's got some closed headphones like the A500x, A700x, and the A900x's. The A900x's were pretty good for me, although some people don't really like the strange "wingflaps", and how they fit on people's heads.

Good thing to note is that if you get a pair of headphones that requires an AMP, like the HD598's, you might need to buy an amp, or amp+dac combo if you're not satisfied with them just plugged into your motherboard, which could cost you quite a bit.

You could try to find the BEST GAMING HEADPHONE EVER, however, a lot of people are content with their Apple Earpods, and still pound without an expensive audio setup.

The death toll... it's a nightmare coming to life.

Due our starter demo's exam schedule, it seems that he will most likely be unavailable to play for us on June the 26th (Product), and quite possibly the 19th (Badlands). Our current roster is:

Scout - Hubcap
Scout - Techno
Roamer - Bubbzi
Pocket - Eloc
Demo - Ramen
Medic - Diashock

There are quite a bit of things we as a team need to work on, but all of us are playing our first season of open, and are eager to learn and improve as much as we can.

Because of the weird circumstances, I'd be happy to pay for your league fees and premium if needed. Add me if you're interested and I can setup a scrim or something.

EDIT: Errrr, it turns out our starter demo is going to neglect his studies and will play for us despite his exams.

I use a pair of MEElectronics M6 Pro for on the go listening. They feature detachable cables like the Shure SE215's, but are much cheaper (at least where I'm situated). That and they come with a shitton of stuff, like another set of cables, comply foam tips, and whatnot.
