Who in their right mind would donate 100€ to get casted by a potato?

If a good team needs a soldier, I might go.

nvm

This is incorrect. Don't use it under the false pretense that it can't be detected.

I went through over a thousand profiles (!) to make sure that players didn't have too much experience in other leagues. So yeah, the rules are being taken seriously and they are being enforced.

Of course, there will always be slips, but if you suspect that anyone is alt accounting or cheating, don't hesitate to report it to us: http://etf2l.org/help/support/

The first script won't do anything because it is incorrectly written. It should look like this:

alias +sc "+showscores;net_graph 1"
alias -sc "-showscores;net_graph 0"
bind TAB +sc 

Wouldn't surprise me if he was just using offline mode for the last thirty days while bragging about his "vacation" on Twitch chats.

Medic is overpowered in the same way queen is overpowered in chess, he is the most important piece of any team constellation and it is necessary to keep him alive. However, this is what makes TF2 interesting, the medic dictates the flow of the game and you have to play around that class. As I said, without the medic TF2 would be just another arena shooter.

Diversity is not necessarily a good thing in competitive FPS. Quake and Counter-Strike are examples of games that are not diverse (i.e. repetitive), but are good competitive shooters anyway. Overwatch may have an alternative solution, but that solution completely changes the game; it is simply not the same game anymore if you applied it to TF2.

Dunno about the ammo pack, but the railing soaked up bullets and rockets and provided little benefit so removing it was a better option.

Which is an incorrect analysis. It's not a band-aid solution, medic adds a lot of depth and strategy into the game, in how you position yourself according to your uber situation, how you play with the ubers, what you do in an uber fight, when to run kritz etc. Without medic, TF2 would just be another arena shooter.

lol most of the problems i mentioned weren't even exclusive to europe. you are ignorant if you deny the bitcoin mining, server problems, client problems, late seasons etc. keep in mind that the value you get from participating in ESEA (grand prizes, being able to go to LAN) is far better than pretty much anyone below top4 team invite.

This wasn't start-up problems though, since ESEA in NA had exactly the same problems, minus teams folding because they don't have time to play four matches in one week while still playing in ETF2L. It was pure neglect from ESEA to not have TF2 servers ready when the season started, despite it being delayed for three weeks.

ESEA could've gone somewhere because the sign-up numbers weren't that bad for a first season, but I'm convinced they fucked it up massively.
