AllealRinseYou are at a disadvantage at almost all midfights if you run anything to mid that isn't the QF against the QF. Not to say it is impossible but it is generally not a good idea to fight QF at mid with anything else.
The best way i have found to counter QF to mid is to turtle yard with kritz and laugh as they try to push though a chokepoint. This is neither fun to play nor watch. Unlocks should not be countered by more unlocks.
No you're not. The only reason the QF is required on Gullywash mid is because high ground is a requirement for everyone instead of an advantage for some. You gain no advantage from jumping your med to crates on Granary (which you could do w/o the QF), there's no point to sitting on top of Snake. All you're doing is asking to get counter jumped or the enemy scouts are just going to walk through the empty point to your Demo. Your players have half as big of an overheal and that matters. You will have uber first AFTER the midfight, but any midfight that plays out normally will be finished by that time. It's not a requirement at mid anywhere other than Gully.
the advanatge of qf is that you get to mid quicker and have more heals during the fight. not getting your med on top of things lol
