Please. I made sure Bloodsire got a place in the article.

Yuice is a bright kid. He's a quick learner and receptive to new information. It's evident that through the season yuice got better and better each week, and his potential as a player has not yet been fully realized either. As BLANC had a very Soldier-oriented team dynamic, he worked on his defensive abilities. He's very good (keen) at staying alive before and after fights, providing a team with a security blanket if a push goes poorly. However, he did suffer from consistency issues with his performance, at least on the statistical level. Part of it had to do with hardware troubles, but another part is probably just how uncomfortable he was in this sort of role. If there's anything that I regret the most this season it's that I wasn't able to have 1-on-1 sessions with my teammates more, yuice included. But make no mistake, he has good DM and is practicing on a regular basis (he swears Pyro dodgeball helps him warmup but I dunno).

He's a quiet gamer, so his effectiveness tends to fluctuate based on the maincalling in a given team. When our calls were on point yuice would rise to the occasion, but on a sloppy or less coordinated night his play would weaken. Again, not necessarily his fault, just something to note. The lack of comms is the area of his game that he needs to work on the most. Yuice simply doesn't talk much. He'd comm the bare basics but even that was erratic at times. Sometimes he'd be flanking a group of enemies but we'd have no idea. Or he'd be running away from a fight without saying a word. Getting over this hurdle will be key in his development, regardless of team playstyle / dynamic.

Personality-wise there are very few issues. He's a capable memer which depending on your tastes is good or bad. It was hard for me to judge his mental game simply due to the lack of calls but I believe he hangs in there even when things go poorly His trademark characteristic is complaining about getting his airshots stolen. :P As he himself mentioned, he did have some computer and Internet troubles throughout the season, though that should be a non-issue post-Black Friday with a new computer. Not sure about the Internet.

I'd like to see him on a defensively-oriented team with a very efficient Pocket maincaller. He matches well with a passive calculated style of play compared to an unpredictable aggressive type. All in all he'll be a solid addition to any playoffs-bound Open team (or higher!) that has the potential to develop further. Good luck, yuice.

Where's the TFTV Skype Admirable??

Duwatna joined Froyotech for S17 on, so he was at i52 by the way.

Most of us have never seen a b4nny team not be in Grand Finals. Not anymore.

I'll be watching / casual casting Weiner Bros vs. Blue Elephant tonight. Hopefully it's entertaining to some extent.

Hopefully no more 2Fort shenanigans please.

I messaged tri about the update, hopefully playoffs won't be delayed.

I was also able to join a server after the update, will try a few different servers to see what's up.

What a game. Good luck to tri / Killing when time comes to sort out all the playoff seeds. Uploading the cast to Youtube right now and will update the OP when it's available.

Also, squidd, Crasian mentioned something about a link you had that could help with my audio issues? But he didn't save it lol so if you see this feel free to PM me or something.

Surprise bump! Crasian and I will be casual casting this Open match at 10 EST tonight at twitch.tv/terywj.

Open Winners vs. Not Around Bears
https://play.esea.net/index.php?s=stats&d=match&id=5542114

Given the new H2H > RF rules regarding playoffs, who knows what shenanigans will happen if NAB grabs the win, leaving a few teams at 9-7 and their fates to be determined by ESEA.

I thought the yeremy mainclassing comment was from Knuckles (via STV / chat) or am I mistaken.

What's going on with the heals received, are they counting regen and healthpacks or something.
