sry for being late updating op now

Hey guys, this thread might be a bit redundant since there is already a main thread for this cup BUT Monthly Mayhem starts tonight(8:30 est is when reg ends) and I thought it would be good to have a last minute reminder/push to help this event succeed. There has been a lot of hype around OW lately but along with the upcoming valve MM, this cup is the best thing that has happened to competitive tf2 in a while and it NEEDS our support! If you are a team looking for some last minute players, or a player looking for a team I will add you to a list in this thread and update it throughout the day until Monthly Mayhem starts.

For those who haven't been updated to how the cup's format will work, it has been changed quite a bit from when the cup was announced initially. They completely scrapped the idea of a daily qualifier and instead they are having it once a week. 2 Matches every Weds and, after the first match, you get matched up against teams with even records (1-0 team plays another 1-0 etc). There will be 16 qualifying teams out of this format that will play at the end of the month in a "winner-takes-all" tournament with a $1000 1st place prize. There is also a bonus Sunday Cup every Sunday that has $120 in razer vouchers as the prize but this does not qualify you for the monthly tourney I think. You can find full details and sign up here:

If you want to be listed: post your name, which classes you are willing to play and the level of experience you have(Open, IM, ugc-gold etc.). Or if you are looking for players, just list what class you are looking for and link me to your roster.

edit: if you want to pick one of these players up, just ctrl+f their name in the thread and get their steam id that way. a bit lazy i know, but I dont want to go back and add a steam id for everyone.

TEAMS LOOKING FOR PLAYERS:

i use the tf2 tab a lot

the new change is a lot better, really hope a lot more teams are able to show up this time! the previous format was kinda hard to follow tbh. ascent is signed up now.

And make sure to update the OP so people know its changed.

are these posted in the ugc forums and tf2 reddit? I'm a little worried it won't get enough people, especially when it is seperated for every day of the week.

i want this more than ive ever wanted anything else in tf2

this is awesome. hopefully people actually sign up to play

there is a reason bo1's aren't particularly telling for ANY competitive game. we played very poorly vs tsu(they are a better team on metalworks anyways) and froyo game was so full of server issues, that game doesn't mean anything.

that's the easiest way to bait rockets yeah but you can bait in a lot of way

#4 is best advice so far. you should probably take most in-depth advice on movement with a grain of salt, it's honestly mostly just prediction and positioning. find the range you are best at and try to take most your engagements from that range but as #4 mentioned, sometimes you have to play risk/reward based on your health and you have to get in close for a kill. Usually getting close involves trying to bait out a rocket or even surfing into them

remember that the best spots for positioning (like on top of train, or a pillar) are also the most predictable. usually the goal is to force them to take those hard shots but also you have to bait those spots enough that they can't really know where you are intending to go

edit: nvm flame explained it below

Smuckers is a top 5 song for me this year honestly, every verse in that song is so enjoyable

oh yeah, I forgot about Every Hero Needs a vaillain, amazin album. Ultimate is also easily my favorite song off of denzel's last project

128 tick makes all the difference in the world. even movement is different

for me its been ME AND MY FRIENDS ME AND MY FRIENDS WE GOT MONEY TO SPEND just in my head non-stop.
