I think the problem with this mindset is that while its clear certain past unlocks have no place in 6s, people also mentally block any new unlocks. The Vaccinator comes to mind, despite being a new, unique approach to the medigun, no one has seemed to toy with it and try to expand on its possibilities (that I've seen). Its quick resist miniubers could be used to push through certain areas and pick the enemy medic before they have have a full uber, or even a full kritz...and unlike the krits, the vacc protects the medic as well, and helps heal him.

Its always a weapon I thought could be amazing in high level 6s in certain situations, but very people seem to investigate it. Hell, a lot of top players I've seen on their streams are surprised when they see it in a rare pub, because they didn't even know it existed!

Years of Quake, then multiple versions of CS, and then TF2 have made me a nearly exclusive twitch shooter. Its become a problem because I feel like my twitch shots are slowly decreasing in accuracy, and I've gotten the urge to track...except I've found I am *terrible* at it.

I want to do both. As someone who's always been a pure twitch player, and plays at a very low sens (31" 360), what is the best way to work on my tracking properly?

when did tftv become reddit

we should just have a "funny shit" thread somewhere to dump this stuff into.

plus the dude is a total badass, captain of the ISS, kind of a hero of Canada and generally a fuckin cool space dude.

Unacceptable.

Acceptable.

Acceptable with a Lange combo.

wait a minute, is this Lange @ i49 confirmation?

Not wanting to add to the drama but I wanna post too so I probably will anyway.

I don't dislike VTv but I've never really enjoyed their casting/style near as much as TFTV. Hearing that TFTV won't have any say/didn't get the contract for all the casting stuff does make my excitement for the event take a hit. I don't understand (obviously because I nor most people in this thread know whats going on behind the scenes) why both communities can't work together on this as its an international TF2 thing, and I feel like it shouldn't be locked down between them.

The entire point of getting another US team to i49 was for the betterment of the entire TF2 scene worldwide. Disallowing TFTV doing the online cast, or even casting off-stage matches, only hurts that goal. I hope people get over their egos and realize they are nothing without each each.

Any official word on this yet?

Would it be possible to use different icons for pocket/roamer soldier? Maybe have the solder midjump for roamer, and the pocket have the medics beam connect to him?

Just a random idea.

Its a solid build list if you don't wanna go into the fine details and conflicts. Gets my vote.

Looks like a pretty decent build, but I would suggest getting a smaller second hard drive to use as a main, likely an SSD, and use the 2TB for storage. I would also highly suggest a mechanical keyboard, although thats optional. A tenkeyless mech board gives you a ton more room (and is a pleasure to us), and you can buy a cheap USB numpad to go with it if you really want a numpad to punch numbers on.

My immediate (and most of my extended) family is crazy religious, which I never got into. I always found it a little strange that despite all the "normal" religious things, as well as some of the batshit crazy stuff they believe, they are all absolutely against the idea of the rapture. I added a 4 as kind of a throwback to those old days of adding a ton of numbers to your name in the early net.
