don't worry after tonight we'll leave you guys alone (provided the other games we don't get cancelled/rescheduled)

edit: added the 130ms vs Paradise Cafe game on thursday to the op

Hi, we are going to continue our coverage of this season's IM matches this season and in this thread I will provide info about week 2 casts (badlands week hype!)
Casters will most likely be myself, dreamboat and cornpop16, with tino/drshadowpuppet doing camerawork.
If you would like us to cast an upcoming match feel free to post in the thread to give us a heads up. If are interested in casting or doing production/camerawork add me or post here as well. Atm tino is our main cam/production guy but his internet has been buggy so if anyone else is interested in helping out it would be much appreciated.

Go funs!

The sniper class still exists even if their demos dead so probably a good idea to have your teammates watch out for that but I agree with you for the most part. Maybe I'm biased as somebody who plays a lot of pugs (or used to at least) but I feel like playing the 6s in general helps with your ability to read the game. Perhaps it's more helpful to main class and play more serious games at a high level but when you're starting out especially I feel like there's a lot of simple things about the flow of the game to pick up on. It's also pretty easy to main call and tell your team what to do in pugs so that's something to practice as well.
I feel like playing any class so long as you are thinking and don't turn your brain off and run forward blindly can help build awareness and give you a better idea about the flow of the game.
With regards to demos I think it's probably more important to hear comes so if you can find stream vods or YouTube videos of high level medic povs with mumble included. IIRC nursey and shade both have a few on their channel, dunno about any EU meds but I'm sure there are some out there. Not always that helpful because different teams have different playstles so what works for one top player may or may not get you killed because your team doesn't protect you as well or whatever. Always take things with a grain of salt and don't read too much into what others are doing at the end of the day it's what works with your team that is most important.

Hi, we going to try to do some coverage of regular season IM matches this season and will be using this thread to promote the casts. Casters will most likely be myself, dreamboat and cornpop16, with tino/drshadowpuppet doing camerawork.
Note: some teams have yet to play their week 1 matches so I will probably be making another thread for matches happening later week on badlands (the map for week 2) to avoid confusion. Hopefully things will be less hectic in the future and these posts won't be quite so last minute.
Edit: going to make a new thread each week to make things simpler

definitely agree with what others have said (esp condom, watching demos and thinking about specific holds and pushes can be super helpful) but i want to emphasize that if you want to get better and medic and play pugs you should try to play other classes as well, as luxor said.
playing medic all the time only gives you one perspective and from a scout or pockets POV for example, you can experience first hand the effect of a good/bad medic if you get dropped in an uber or something like that. Scrims and matches are of course the best way to get experience and practice but watching demos (both of yourself and other good medics as condom said) can help you iron stuff out.
I like to do jump maps cause I feel it helps with movement and muscle memory (did it at i58 to get used to the desk/mousepad even though I was playing scout) but surfing is good for practicing movement/mouse movement if thats what you enjoy

p sure I'm gonna just play open with offclassico so I have time to do casts and stuff so u guys can stop bumping this

You can still definitely strafe cancel accidentally mid air on soldier and lose your momentum with null movement scripts. I feel like for medic there's a good argument for using it so you can AD mash and try to dodge scouts, but for scout I feel like it could mess with your ability to strafe aim if you randomly strafe the opposite direction instead of slowing down. As people have said it's preference but IMO it's a lot easier to justify for medic/soldier than scout.

sleeping life told me that one of his old highlander teammates made the same mistake as you and ended up ordering muma a new PSU which is allegedly sitting in its original box unopened under his bed
