Pocket LFT Open

Hey guys. My name's Cygnus, some of you might know me because I (used to) stream a lot and played Pyro and sometimes Soldier.

I really enjoy Pocket in 6s and played on an Open team for one season, backing up for another the next. While it was tons of fun I can definitely say that my HL scrim schedule + IRL responsibilities really made it hard to commit to scrimming basically every night of the week.

That's why I'm just putting it out there that I'm looking for a very low-commitment team if possible. The trouble is that I definitely am motivated to improve, so I'd really only want to play with 5 doods who have similar goals, but just not a ton of time on their hands. Not sure if such a team exists but ideally I would want to scrim 2 maybe 3 nights a week for like 2 hours a night.

Like I said, just putting it out there, and I won't be mad if it's essentially impossible to find a team that meets this criteria.

I was kind of thrust into the role of caller on my HL team over the past season and while it's difficult and frustrating to do from the Pyro position I really enjoy calling as Pocket and feel it is one of my strengths. I feel I have a solid baseline of gamesense from playing HL very seriously over the past few years and would love to apply that to 6s.

In terms of what I feel I need to improve on:
I think my DM is very average and I'd be putting in more time DMing/MGEing to hit more shots.
I may sometimes over-comm with my own personal agenda. Though I try to relate what I'm doing ingame at that moemnt to my plan for the team as a whole, I may sometimes talk too much.

TF2 Resume:

6 Seasons of experience on a top-level UGC Platinum team as Pyro (Baby Punching Marathon)
1 Season of experience on a low-mid Open team as Pocket ($30k for Bald Kids)
1 Season of experience on a mid-Open team as backup Pocket (Chilling in North Korea)
A lot of TF2Mix pugs and some pugnas.

Thanks for your time & consideration!

Cygnus survived the reformation of the largest roster in Open. This man has my respect.

On a more serious note, Cygnus valiantly backed up under the NK flag last season and was a pleasure to have him ring despite his busy schedule. Seriousness about improvement and dependable output are what I believe his best qualities are.

mirroring what others have said:

cyg has a really positive personality and good mic presence. i personally love when pocket's broadcast (damage given, enemy positioning, etc.), which he does quite well. i feel like he's gained a lot of positive experience just by pugging so much, and could only continue to grow on the right team.

played with Cygy in several pugs, always has a good attitude and is fun to play with, even when we're losing 4-0. He trys real hard to get better and would be a good pick for a team
