Thanks for your patience, ily

EDIT: We're also doing a hat raffle during the cast - if you donate $1 with the comment "hat" over at http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/he...e-uk?c=pledges you'll go into the draw to win Bulk's Stormy Storm Tippler's Tricorne!

Because it's not like I'm logged into IRC all the time with my alias. Also, I haven't booked a server for few months now ;[]

TBA atm. Trying to get that sorted ASAP (preferably in the next few hours).

Both teams are Australian, so yes.

Hi all!

It's been a while since you've heard anything from us, so we thought we'd come out with a bang, and give you guys something entertaining leading up to our trip to i49 in the UK in August. After some deliberation, we’ve determined that the best way to provide an excellent event for the community is to represent the entire community. This representation is going to be achieved by creating a head-to-head competition between the best of Australian Highlander and 6’s, with some bias to a format which will be the most exciting for spectators.

On Sunday 30/6 at 01:00 EDT (15:00 AEST), there will be two best of 3 map series’ (played with standard competitive rulesets) between velox Destruo and team immunity, with an opportunity for 3 generous individuals with a passion for tf2 to contribute their skills to the contest.

Series 1: 6v9

The first series will be played directly as iM(6) vs vD(9), where it will be interesting to see if the classic competitive format can overcome the 3 player disadvantage on the following maps suited to pseudo 6v6:

cp_gravelpit
cp_snakewater
koth_ashville

Series 2: 9v9

It is through the second series that the community can make an impact. In the interests of creating a more equal playing field, the iM team is offering the 3 remaining positions to the three highest donating individuals from the time of this post until the end of the first series. This is a great opportunity for 3 members of the community to jump straight into the fun, and get their name up on the big stage. The 9v9 will be played on the following maps suited to highlander:

pl_swiftwater
koth_arctic
cp_gullywash

This event has a community focus, and while there is an opportunity for those who are feeling generous to assist us in our i49 endeavour over at i49au.tf, the purpose of this event is to bring the two halves of the competitive community together in a fun environment and share it with the rest of you.

These games will definitely be casted/streamed, and we hope to see you there!

PS: Look for the first video from our stretch goals soon!

The demo that ruwin looked at is about a year old that's not even our current lineup. I was also playing scout, not pocket (usual class).

I'm sure I could find a more relevant one or two if Ruwin desires.

He probably requested them hidden, which is fair. After all, they're videos of himself.

scout op nerf pls

But in all seriousness; as boomer said, there are too many variables to say "which class should win the fight". Element of surprise, health(overheal also), ammo loaded, position, map, players that are alive, time left on map. Different factors often will have you play differently depending on the situation

I mean after all, if you have an overheal and surprise a soldier, even if he has a healbeam - if you hit two meatshots + some point blank, he will probably die due to self-damage etc.

Just to clarify - you mean roguelike, not lite, right?

re: never heard of roguelite, so no idea what you're talking about unless it's a typo.

I'm having too much fun with this.

Yeah, because 9 times out of 10, the new hero is imbalanced. When I played and when these heroes came out: yorick, vayne, ahri, graves, jarvan, xin zhao - were are stupidly balanced. It really is soft pay to win, or play 500 games to get the "new imbalanced hero". I don't care whether it's their "business model" and that it works for them. I'm concerned with the fact you either need to play a shit ton + bank up some points or pay money to try a new hero that should be available whenever! Not only that, having multiple rune pages is almost essential if you want to get anywhere in that game. Else, your rune pages aren't diverse enough and you're weaker at a role in a ranked game because x player picked y role, and your z rune page just doesn't cut it.

Please don't try and do the same thing with TF2, as we all know 99% of the unlocks are side-grades at best.
