#21 NHL off season trades/rumors in Off Topic

Lecavalier to the Leafs.

Pls :( need a center, hopefully not a long term deal

Also Ference would be a nice add, or Lydman.

Is Brad Richards going to be bought out by the Rangers or will he stay

#85 The Unpopular Opinion in TF2 General Discussion

Valve thinks highlander would be easier to support because it's closer to pub play. Highlander is easier for pub players to identify with because : there's a lot of people, there's all the classes, there are all their loveable unlocks and its played out like a pub with some communication.

6s was created through years of experimentation which included allowing the unlock changing metas that Valve loves. Unfortunately some of these unlocks change the game to the point that it's either slow, does not require skill or are just down right stupid. Valve wants these unlocks in their competitive lobby, but 6s does not work with them. Therefore Valve turns to highlander. The only way for 6s to possibly get this lobby is to change the format, which means hit the restart button and do it all over again, which I for one do not want to do since we've already spent years doing it.

Valve will not support 6s because they do not understand why the meta is so stale and predictable. The reason that they don't understand is because they do not A) play it, and B) watch a lot of it.

Robin does not like 6s because his weapons are not in it and he does not get to see mini sentries everywhere or sydney sleeper snipers tanking head shots and wranglers tanking damage while auto aiming at other people.

So the conclusion is, Valve favours highlander because it has a better chance of attracting pub players into their new lobby system. The lobby system is probably a way to attract more players, and that means more profit. This looks like a business opportunity to them.

Yet Valve is ignoring years of work from the product that the 6s community has created. This 6s community was able to give a $20,0000 donation for two teams at I46, and draw 4000 views for matches there with NO SUPPORT FROM VALVE.

Valve is ignoring the successful part of the community for some reason and is supporting the highlander format.

Now I'm not saying highlander is bad, I'm just not understanding why Valve chooses not to support the 6s format which achievements (see I46, ESEA LANS, ETFL2 LANS) are much better then that of the highlander scene.

Valve promoting this highlander lobby might lead to more players playing competitive, yes. They'll be playing comp highlander which is highly unlikely to get a LAN (due to number of players required). These pub players who love their unlocks would not want to go into 6s without their unlocks after playing in this lobby system that allows them to keep their beloved jarate/caber etc.
They'll just keep playing the format the lobby introduces them too : Highlander.

Valve is ignoring 6s, supporting highlander, which will slowly lead to less 6s players and the format dying out in favor of the "easy simple solution" which involves getting pub players to play highlander which is basically the same thing except with communication.

It is true that 6s is completely different from pub play, but that does not mean 6s cannot be the GO TO competitive format.
I don't offer a solution to be honest, I just offer my opinion on the situation and how I am seeing things.

I mean, all Valve really needs to do to help comp tf2 grow is a god damn notification that a match is going on in ESEA or a link to comp leagues like ESEA, UGC, ETF2L, and other leagues.

Even a TF.TV link would help.

PLZ.
