It's fucking AIDS. If I have uber, hearing that weapon scares the shit out of me since I know I can drop to it completely blindly if I've taken any kind of spam damage.

It would be balanced IF:
- Double donks did less damage
- There was some kind of visual indicator that shows how close how it is to exploding (cannonball changing colour etc.)
- Hit radius was reduced since it's big enough to be considered a small planet right now

snapchat's more popular and very easy to use, you can save your own snaps, but not others (videos at least). If I do it then I would try and remember to save them all so that a youtube highlight thing could be made.

edit: by the way shade, I saw that you added me back on snapchat. This isn't necessary, if someone adds you then they can see things posted to "My Story", so just let people add you and send all your snaps to my story.

I might make a snapchat account for i55 if I spec. Not sure if I could get a lot of content out if I was playing
edit: I am speccing so will doing a snapchat story over i55. ADD: i55ayogurl

solid cup

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I really doubt any of them give a shit. If you can't get 6 that day for whatever reason then that's fine. But if you gave a shit about the tournament and how outsiders perceive tf2 in general then you would determine whether or not you could play early (i.e. not the night before), prepare for the tournament or contact the organisers so that you don't just no show and make the tourney look like a complete fucking joke. This coupled with their reluctance to play showmatches for a fundraiser that would give them money for a free holiday (as well as hyping up i55) just makes froyotech come across as arrogant dickheads. Maybe I don't have the whole picture, but this is how it comes across to me.

Full tilt are signed up. I encourage others to do the same!

The current schedule is really too early. It could easily be made 1-2 hours later, I think a 19:30CEST start is perfectly fine. This gives people time to get home from work and will mean you only play late if you make it to the finals. Random seeding isn't great but I assume this won't be used in the future, so I won't stress that point too much. Moving the schedule back should increase signups too, since 19:30CEST is only 30mins earlier than normal practise time for Europe.

Thanks Dilusive for being so responsive to feedback and I look forward to future tournaments.

There are currently only 5 teams signed up to the european cup tomorrow. Most of the top teams aren't able to play tomorrow so if you're a high team or even lower then this is an opportunity to get some free money. If you're scrimming tomorrow night I see no reason why you wouldn't play in this tournament and support Razer since they are one of few companies supporting tf2 right now and you have the chance to win FREE MONEY.

SIGN UP

Does this include ETF2L ruleset? Will you be following their ruling on the new weapon pickup mechanic introduced in the Gun Mettle Update or will it be allowed? I only ask since viaduct is in the map pool for the tournament and it is especially broken on that map.

A lot of this is bad advice and/or down to personal preference. There are high-level players that use default hud, viewmodels on and/or change their sensitivity every other day et.c. Find a setup that's comfortable for you.

I'd really advise against blindly picking a main class without fully understanding the meta and the roles of the different classes in 6v6. Play the newbie mixes on a few different classes and get a feel for 6v6 before setting your heart on one (however, in my experience players from a cs background tend to favour scout). Even then, plenty of people change main class after years of playing one.

Also, you don't need a mentor. It may be useful to have someone to answer any questions you have. BUT I don't think someone spoon feeding you 6v6 will actually help your understanding. The simplest way to learn is simply by playing, and every time you die. Question it. Think about why you died and the mistakes that led to it, as long as you don't assign it to some bullshit out of your control (omg I lagged; he's cheating; what an idiot; blahblah) then you will improve.

it's 90% bollocks

Regardless of how dreadful our pug team is, I think this clip demonstrates how broken this new update is with regards to mediguns:
http://plays.tv/video/5597dfb05100763620
Even with the barely existent coordination of a team in tf2pickup.net we managed to have 2 ubers ready to push last. If a real team did this then it's pretty much impossible to lose a last push. Even if we completely fucked up the uber exchange in the first push there would still be an ubercharge that could be used to block second.

The only way this addition of dropped weapons could be unfucked is if
- Weapons from a previous life disappear when u respawn
- The timer for it to disappear is massively reduced.
- OR there is a reduction in the amount of uber in picked up mediguns (100% gives 50% when picked up)

The last option might actually increase the pace of games since it just accelerates uber advantages and kind of eliminates time in which you are stood around building waiting for uber. But then again it completely fucks up counting ubers and removes that part of playing medic.

I don't know the best way to unfuck this but Valve feels some compulsive need to fuck with the metagame of tf2 and we kind of have to adapt to it somehow.
