yeah so b4nny hasnt signed up to the szn and the new team registration ended today this game is dead now

please tell me the b4nny med for this season is a joke

We can endlessly point out upset wins against froyo, but I think pointing out the individual wins in groups or scrims is insignifcant. I only named the winter cup loss in groups because the core of that roster (iirc) was the predecessor to asdf / GCI and, as we have known it in recent years, wG NA. Hence I think we don't need to mention any more froyo losses in random ass scrims or offis. No hate to your post though, I respect it.

If a good team like froyo loses though, they will always adapt. I haven't been around that long to know how the atmosphere was like in the esea days. However in rgl's case, e.g s3, the whole underperforming habib problem combined with the midszn roster switches between b4nny roamer and yomps scout proved to make them struggle against the mid table invite teams. This gave ascent the possibility to outshine them, but in an ironic tone, they were also constantly switching their players between roles (botmode specifically; no slander tho I love him alot). It wasn't until jay arrived in the team that they had finally solidified their roster for the szn. As per froyo fashion, they were back in high gear, but asdf and eventually wG proved to be "too much" for them. I believe so atleast.

Ceejaey made an excellent video observing this period of froyo's history (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BDyh_QRRVc). I heavily recommend watching it.

Preceeding this was the DreamHack TF2 Community Clash 2021 in NA where the asdf mix beat froyo. As per Liquipedia this was their first 2nd place since 2017.

And I mean, if we want to go deeper down the froyotech upset loss rabbit hole, then balls cup team in the RGL Winter Cup the same year. Froyo dropped like a 1-4 loss to them in groups. I still remember the hype around aim's stream back then...good times.

i got to d1 playoffs in 6s by using a soundboard instead of a mic, so anything is possible in tf2

haha niagara balls

Both songs were in my opinion pretty powerful with their messages and in general pleasant to listen to. I preferred the first one however due to it being more upbeat and pop-esque. James Brown's words were withoutdoubt meaningful as well, but I didn't personally enjoy him "talking", if you get what I mean.

Pretty smart approach considering RGL also has "RGL pugs"

The BO3 cause of the miniseason is understandable, but having a minimum of 1 map being played in a "finals" feels very dissatisfactory and more petty than anything. Imagine working hard only to play a potential of 1 map lmao

At that point just give the UBF team free power over the 3 maps played instead - this has the possibility of being very powerful aswell and enables more gaming which I'm sure everyone would want :)

rgl s9 aswell with the games between froyo and g6

Respect to a legendary dynasty. I'm glad to have supported the Aussies going to Denver
Godspeed to everyone involved

varnu undisputably
I'm the only other Estonian player who could come close to varnu, but I only play one class and have been hardstuck Div1 for 2 years (the reasons of which people I'm sure are aware of). Even if I were prem, I think their experience in general on Scout and Soldier just dwarves mine. I don't think I could come close to their level I'll be completely humble about it.

honourable mention John Cena

For the love of God, if this league does end up actually being real not some shitpost, then change the match format into something that does not include halves - that is completely unnecessary. It doesn't even matter if b4nny cfg or something else replaces it, just have it GONE.

Also change Pyro and Sniper class limit to 1 immediately. As if 1 sniper isn't already tedious enough, but 2? Outsh'allah brother

This all sounds very exciting and I hope things work out the best, but how would the international aspect work? Aren't these LANs typically meant for RGL playoffs, i.e the top 4 teams of invite (not including the Open tournament)? Won't this secret international team be something big and recognisable, or some smaller team looking to have fun? Perhaps it's too early to speculate like this but I am quite curious :D
