Don't. There's a reason Euros are allowing Gunboats next season.

both. ESEA vods will get uploaded to the proper youtube (when it's set up) and anything that I do I like to upload to my channel as well.

here's another video if you enjoy hearing about esports, but this one is more oriented towards quake live. shoutout to oafmeal's video which gave me a related video to this haha. the audio is crappy but its interesting:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0qYOHgi8UM

watched the whole thing. the guy is an inspiration.

damnit...if only you did those screenshots with your HUD off

penis

1:49 PM - Vick: one of the problems I've been coming across is that to a newbie, there are knowns, known unknowns (like DM, specific rocket jumps, strats, etc.) and then there are unknown unknowns
1:49 PM - Vick: to quote my buddy Rummy
1:49 PM - Vick: most newbies I met think they know far more than they do
1:49 PM - Vick: or they don't know something but think they do
1:49 PM - Vick: like a medic for example would say they know how to rollout
1:49 PM - Vick: but then you do your rollout and no one gets to mid with a buff
1:50 PM - Vick: how do you fix that mid pug?
1:50 PM - Vick: how do you diagnose those kinds of problems without playing?
1:50 PM - iM. MR SLIN: yea haha but thats like a denial thing right? its sort of like how people dont like to ask for directions or they want to be independent
1:50 PM - Vick: my solution is to use the time after the pug to work on that
1:50 PM - Vick: yeah
1:50 PM - Vick: I do that all the time
1:50 PM - iM. MR SLIN: well
1:50 PM - iM. MR SLIN: i think the best thing to do would be to have a half time
1:50 PM - iM. MR SLIN: like
1:50 PM - iM. MR SLIN: upload a config with first to 3, first to 5
1:50 PM - iM. MR SLIN: and at half time fix some stuff real quick
1:51 PM - iM. MR SLIN: once the pug gets rolling
1:51 PM - iM. MR SLIN: like you said its really tough
1:51 PM - iM. MR SLIN: its sort of like in scrims theres some things you can fix mid scrim
1:51 PM - iM. MR SLIN: other times you cant fix shit
1:51 PM - iM. MR SLIN: haha
1:51 PM - iM. MR SLIN: cause the game is goin
1:51 PM - iM. MR SLIN: but you gotta limit the halftime too
1:51 PM - iM. MR SLIN: dont make it like
1:51 PM - iM. MR SLIN: 20 minutes long
1:51 PM - iM. MR SLIN: while 1 coach tries to fix 6 people
1:51 PM - iM. MR SLIN: just make it
1:51 PM - iM. MR SLIN: 5 minutes
1:52 PM - iM. MR SLIN: allow the coach to fix the biggest issues
1:52 PM - iM. MR SLIN: answer quick questions if its going well for that team
1:52 PM - iM. MR SLIN: etc

thoughts on a halftime config?

Boink, as someone who has tried coaching from spectator I can tell you that it's extremely difficult. I find that it's much easier if you have a position that controls the pace of the team like pocket.

not yet. sorry atmo. i would have done it but they wanted to clear with ESEA first.

also, as far as the HUD convo goes, you guys should check out the one that i use for my own personal casts. here's an example video (sorry for the 480p quality. will be fixed in future videos now that i've figured out how to download the twitch vods):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_3_RDx9GYg

as you can see though, it's just a modified version of what you saw today. hopefully we'll get it fixed for next time or the near future.

modmic fits your description perfectly. it is also detachable. you attach a small magnetic piece to your headset and you can pull the mic off whenever you want.

zalman clip on is a good alternative if the mod mic is too expensive for you. quality isn't the best but it gets the job done.

Just so you know Jakob, every team at an ESEA-Invite or ESEA-Intermediate level has found a way to take care of their own server, so you need to make a competitive offer in order to acquire that kind of team. An ESEA-Open team like you mentioned in the post above would be a lot more manageable. However, the ones that will "go classic mixup" in open and roll teams probably have taken care of their own server as well.

Mumble servers are even more meaningless because you can typically bum off of someone else's Mumble server if you can't get one of your own. Also, most companies that sell TF2 servers bundle a Mumble server with it already.

Still appreciate your support of TF2 though!

Rude

Actually greaver if you watch from the sourcetv or demo you won't run into the sv_pure 2 issues, and all ESEA matches are casted from the sourceTV

I feel like the medic of ESEA casts.

all joking aside, great match and hopefully i can do more in the future.

shoutouts to arc for the post-match interview that he apparently didn't know happened until the end lol!
