#13 Talent, skill, and coordination in Q/A Help
Mercyless-SideshowI don't think you can make that argument at all, and it's wishful thinking to believe it.

There are real genetic differences between people's reaction times, intelligence, logical thinking, etc. Even if you discard all of the genetic differences, your entire wealth of personal experience before you picked up TF2 already mapped out how you'll mentally approach the game and how you approach the process of learning and improving.

There is obviously innate talent in people that defines a skill ceiling - look, for example, at the people who DO train as hard in sports, or practise madly in esports, and still fail. They might even train and play better, analyse the game better, but still lose. The same can be applied to sports, where athletes train all their lives in identical conditions and can lose out to training partners or w/e who have better natural ability.

Work and the refinement you achieve hones your natural ability and brings it close to your personal ceiling, but you don't have the ability to be the next Usain Bolt if you just try hard enough. And to genuinely tell people they do is disingenuous and very hard to believe.

In terms of TF2, most people I think should be able to achieve an Invite level or w/e reasonable level you want to set. There's a small playerbase and it's not that hard even if you have little natural talent.

Also your final point is largely bull too; loads of players have not improved since 2014, or are just as good as they were, or have gotten worse, even if some are better. Also, just because some people improve over time (duh) doesn't mean everybody can improve infinitely until they're the best.

I should have made my point about tf2 players improving clearer. I meant teams at the highest levels of play in general not specific players(top play at i49 compared to i55 for example). Otherwise of course some players stay at their level or decline over time.

that's not what the thread is about though

#41 Luca Goers disbands, Aeonic receives spot in News

Indust when he cares is probably still a better medic than Nursey, but without knowing anything whatsoever about the situation it was pretty obviously for non-skill related reasons, indust has had a tendency to vanish for long stretches of time the past few seasons and he generally gives off the vibe of someone who feels burdened by having to play for a non top 2 team every time he does.

That being said, I think people disliking Indust has made them rate him much lower than his actual abilities, I would still have him as a top 3 medic at least if not higher.

#62 ESEA Update (moveups, invite) in TF2 General Discussion
Nub_DanishphobiaslemnishI'm friends with the guys on dog2 but I voted for them because they're actually a solid team having watched them and playing against them, so I'm not sure what makes you say thatI just feel like uncharted has a better rosterthey do have a better roster, but dog1 has more untapped potential also they're not nearly as well c-jerked

this, except they don't even have a better roster sooo ye

#56 ESEA Season 22 Invite team list announced in News
lucrativemustardoverlordI do think dog2 is overall the best choice tho

breaking it down:

experience together- dog2 prevails

main calling- dog2 is better

rosters:

sureshot and hellbent are SIGNIFICANTLY better than froot and rolling, that's uncharted's biggest advantage

ex and blues are overall better than mu and split

mausy and mae are really close, mausy has the invite experience but mae is improving really quickly and could be better by the end of the season

cookiejake is better than luc

it basically comes down to if you think froot on pocket is enough of a dumpster fire to negate the rest of the stuff in dog2's favor, which I don't

can you actually just go away with this biased dogshit everyone knows you have a hard on for hating me so just fuck off and die in your basement already

have you considered that maybe there's a reason that, for like 5 seasons in a row, everyone says "mad lux is gonna be top 3 in IM, probably win it, their roster looks so fat", and then you guys end up being disappointing?

and that everyone I know who has played with you bitches about your 2008-style calling constantly?

I have never met someone better at making teams worse than the sum of their parts

I have always been amazed at how people still don't know to head over to logs.tf as soon as they see these, which has implications

every single vote for getawhale rodeo club, for instance

#32 Brutalix leaves core Jasmine Tea roster in News

It's sad because what Paulsen says about his arrogance helping their team cohesion is totally true, Jasmine was at their best when they took like total 6v6 no uber vs no uber fights and just used their DM and focus fire to win all the time, and I don't think you'll find a more decisive caller than Brutalix for better or worse

Still glad that this means termo is more likely to be at i58 tho
