I play worse when I'm uncomfortable, pretty sure most people are like that

It's not that they don't care, they just fuck us over because literally everything but 6s has higher priority to them. When they make updates, NONE of the content is competitive related, and they don't seem to test anything related to comp. For example, the BASE jumper would crash random players something like 5-10 times in a match, but since it only happened in tournament mode, valve somehow missed it and didn't get around to fixing it for a few days.

If this was crashing pub servers it never would've been released like that.

reputation is important, but I'm pretty sure that anyone that matters to you knows dflame isn't you.

i actually like using the soda popper so i've been trying not to use this in case it gets deemed an exploit or it gets fixed and i have to unlearn to use it.

as much as i love the idea of matchmaking with both or either of the comp formats, i'm not exactly excited to play against the Pomson/short circuit in any of them. valve has more to do than just making a lobby system if they expect it to be fun.

Neither. The i5 2500k is two generations old, and the i5 3570k is one generation old. They're no longer in production, and their prices are going up. Get it i5 4690k, the current generation i5.

If you have a microcenter you can buy from, getting a package deal of motherboard + i5 4690k would be an awesome value. The best thing here is that they don't sell incompatible package deals, so you don't have to double check everything.

EDIT: If you're buying a motherboard separately, you're looking for a LGA-1150 socket, and most likely Z87 or Z97 chipset. Something with an H chipset won't be good for overclocking, and a gentle overclock is a great way to improve your TF2 performance.

If you don't want to overclock, you can buy a non-K version of the processor and an H-series motherboard that still has an 1150 slot. That'll save you a decent amount of money, but the overclocking potential is gone.

wouldn't it be great if it was both?

seriously just try her out, the minus frags are from a few stupid forum posts and have no bearing on her as a player

I wouldn't recommend trying out for them. There were only 6 people on a team and two of them were soldiers... I don't think they understand highlander very well.

this is good info but watching some random guy pub as mini sentry engineer on koth_nucleus while listening to it made me feel dirty
