Cool guy, really solid DM, decision making is getting better. Really solid pickup for a team looking to land in the playoffs.

I'm only like Prospect III but will gladly play anytime I am on.

Hey there. Plinko/Gamer_Dad here.
ESEA

I had a lot of fun getting a chance to be reminded why I main medic instead of Scout with Chex Offenders this season - as fun as it to cap points and click on things, I'm a much better at healing and dodging than I am fragging.

Unfortunately, during the Summer I don't think I can commit to being available enough to try and play full-time next season.
So, to keep sharp for S23, I'd like to find a spot with a team that might need a medic (and/or mediocre scout) to serve as an occasional sub - preferably at an Open Playoffs+ level, or if you just need a medic ringer, hit me up.

Good teammate, wish he'd been around the entire season with us. Can hit his rockets and comms pretty well.

He'll improve a lot if he keeps playing consistently with a team!

Dish has a lot of DM skill, he was a good teammate and a fun person to have in mumble.

He can definitely improve his choices of fights and offclasses - something I think he can learn easily if put in a situation with some more experienced players around him. All in all, he's going to go places if he wants to.

Ly is super dedicated to the game, he was a great teammate and I am sure he will keep improving and doing well at the game.

I think it would be good for him to get into a situation where the combo communicates well and, ideally, shoulders a fair amount of the calling.
I think having to do the bulk of the calling for Chex Offenders kept him from doing as much as he could as far as his own play went - in a situation where he can focus on his role instead of constantly trying to get everyone else on the same page, he will really thrive.

Apparently so . . .

Bump for the last few days before registration ends.

Hey there, Plinko here (aka Gamer_Dad at ESEA), looking to play a little scout in S21.

I thought I was quitting after a little fiasco in S20 (if you want gory details, ask me privately), but I find I enjoy playing TF2 still, I just don't think I can enjoy medic enough to do it every day anymore. I do enjoy scout and believe I can be solid mid-Open for a team.

I am on pretty much every night after 9:30 EST, but as I do actually have a kid to take care of, I would prefer if there are some nights off here and there.

With a good group of folks, I wouldn't mind what level we think we are, or splitting time if you have someone with commitments.
Heck, I'd play UGC if someone wanted to do something just for fun.

Can pay own fees.

Comments: I think I got burned out on medic and a bad team situation last season, finished backing up for some friends. Lately have had the itch to play scout, though.

Ours as well.

Not to defend the sporadic/lousy feedback, but PUGs are probably only good up to a point for quality map feedback - coordination and comms are lousy in the first place. It's only when teams start scrimming a map that a lot of things they see will start to come out.

Of course, then you get into a chicken/egg situation - no great feedback until league inclusion means it's really hard to get good feedback!

That is to say, having a non-league testing ground for teams to play new maps with something on the line would probably help get good feedback earlier in the process.

Also, couch is awesome.

So, with the extension, when do we think the first matches will be scheduled? The week of Labor Day or the one after?
