Though for the most part this is true, it triggers me when team A wins mid and has 4 up vs the 3 up of team B, but instead of continuing to chase and potentially wipe them, one of the scouts jerks off on middle capping while his team attempts to win the team fight without him. There's nothing wrong with killing them and then capping afterwards, especially given scout is the best class in the game it is pretty useful to chase meds even if it means you have to cap later (or have your roamer switch to pain train and cap it as he respawns).
On the topic of playing pocket on middle, don't think you always need to jump in and initiate something for your team. Especially on maps like gullywash, it's often straight up suicidal to attend. Otherwise to jump into the enemy team because there are usually 6 players grouped up on one side ready to kill whoever feeds into them. That being said, standing on the low ground and spamming/attracting spam to your team can also sometimes be detrimental (for example if your roamer is bombing or something like that). You can bait your roamer a little bit by having him bomb in and you jump in slightly afterwards and shoot the dudes shooting your teammate or who he's shooting. I think there's a few old vods on boinks youtube of technosex talking about double bombs on mid if you're unfamiliar with the concept.
In pugs and stuff when I play pocket, I sometimes find that it's more effective to go gunboats and do a roamer style jump and attempt to make a distraction so your team can push across point and shoot the dudes looking at you. On most mods at least, neither soldier should be taking too many heals (besides arrows and initial buffs) so the role of pocket and roamer tend to blur a little, though at a lower level it may be better for you to try to babysit your medic if you don't 100 percent trust your scouts to hit all their shots/avoid tunnel visioning.

if you are really lazy you can make a .bat file that you double click to switch out your custom folder in order to add/remove prec
so you make one folder and name it custom_with_prec or something and then another named custom_without_prec
then in order to create the .bat file you just open a notepad and put this in and save as a .bat or windows batch file

rmdir "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\custom"
mklink /j "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\custom" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\custom_with_prec"

and name it prec.bat
and then make another one with this instead and name it whatever you want (prec_off or something should be fine)

rmdir "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\custom"
mklink /j "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\custom" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\custom_without_prec"

dr shadowpuppet told me he uses a similar symbolic link for replacing his custom folder in order to do tftv casts but figured out the logic to have just one .bat file that toggles it

if you want to get really fancy you can also make shortcuts to launch the game in different dxlevels (for example, if you normally play on dx8 with prec but need to use dx9 and without prec in order to play matchmaking)
all you have to do is make a new shortcut (right click -> new -> shortcut) and direct it to steam.exe
then open its properties (right click -> properties) and change the target from

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Steam.exe"

to

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Steam.exe" -applaunch 440 -console -novid -h 1080 -w 1920 -dxlevel 81 -full

adjust accordingly if you have steam installed on another drive or to change it to whichever launch options you want, the important part is that the directory for steam is in quotes and afterwards you have -applaunch 440 to launch tf2
iirc having -dxlevel in your launch options after the first time you change it makes it take forever to alt tab (at least for fullscreen) so to use this you would just put the .bat files and separate steam shortcuts (for the launch options you want to change) into one folder and then in order to play mm you just double click the bat file, then double click the steam shortcut and it will launch tf2, then close the game and relaunch it normally from within steam (you may not need to do this if you use windowed)

mae and the meyymeyys vs running from mustard is happening tonight but unfortunately mustardoverlord will not be able to cast so instead it will be me and dreamboat casting with tino on production.

pretty sure i have my accounts linked, i've uploaded highlights directly to yt but haven't figured out how to get clips to
going to probably do what vari said and combine them into one longer video

tyvm friendulum :D

I know it's possible to export highlights to youtube but I was trying to do that from my phone and all the twitch app would let me do is create clips. Is there any way to download the clips/export them to YouTube or otherwise combine them into one video somehow?

If anyone is curious the clips in question are all from an aids pug from the other night in which I got a couple of humorous market garden kills.
Don't want to spam the stream highlights thread with a million mediocre clips but it'd be cool to have a video of them all together (some of them are only funny given I've gotten away with the same stupid jump earlier)

does feeding constantly but occasionally getting lucky and killing idiots count

Megawac sleeping life and I are most likely going to play a bunch of pickup civ games this weekend.
We play with all the dlc and nq mod (gods and kings + bnw should suffice with the mods though)
Anyone interested can add me or sleeping/megawac or pm me on tftv
If you don't know what nq mod is and are curious you can read the patch notes (BORING) or go watch filthyrobot or babayetu because they are some of the top civ streamers and most of the time play with the mod and map. Filthy also has videos explaining the updates and stuff.

Also civ 6 comes out in less than a month so we will probably be playing that instead once it comes out unless it's a repeat of beyond earth and is trash but that doesn't look likely
