no

why? freakpugs was literally just a copy of pugchamp, there was never any difference. Just add up to pugchamp

pugchamp is usually higher level and its hard to get picked when nobody knows u. Freakpugs was an opportunity to play poverty pugs but not call them poverty cuz theyre freaky instead

in-house pugs now https://discord.gg/QfzJc2C

I second the revival of freakers

wtf when did freakpugs die?! WTF

people can try and just add to mixchamp again.

only invite players get into pugchamp pugs.

The problem with PugChamp is after the IM+ pugs happen no one captains the Open pug so none of those players get picked. And then the previous pugs end and rinse and repeat. People just need to captain after the IM+ pugs happen. If you want to get your pugs up so you are able to captain just Medic and don't be god awful and you'll get picked.

Edit: There's also been a lot of players added up recently I don't remember the last time I've seen 20+ people added in pugs before 7 EST

TF2Stadium master race tbh

i refuse to play medic just to get my pugs up

mixchamp is being revived, start queuing up

You refuse to play Medic to get to 25 pugs so then you are able to captain so then pugs will start for people who get fatkidded from pugs above their skill level? And people are wondering why they don't get picked

i see too many players that are only added to medic because that's the only class that theyll get picked as, i have self respect

lets revive mixchamp instead

hey everyone, the site is down, it has always been in beta. We are going back to our old discord in-house pugs, so its not really dead.

The site is what they came for. And it won't return until we have something of our own. Something we've created. Nobody here really cares about in-house.

I'll update it at least bi-annually maybe more

So it's dead.

In-house were never as popular as IRC and websites recently (pugme, pugchamp, mixchamp, freakpugs) had a fair bit more people than IRCs too (relative to the total amount of comp players).

Whether you like it or not a website is just much more approachable and easier to navigate. The invisible barrier to entry is almost nothing compared to in-houses or IRC.

Higher level pugs were all but dead outside of the very very occasional in-house. Pugme had a very very real impact on many of the invite players you see now, and freakpugs offered a similar platform for lower level players

one of my best places to practice

i really feel like theres no where to play now

Mixchamp
Edit: unless u were being sarcastic, if so xd

mixchamp is complete garbage

fucking can we just have 2 or 3 pug groups to dedicate ourselves to? each one having slightly different levels of skill? like it's fucking annoying having 20+ pug groups around and they all die just because we as a community just can't stick to a few

freakpugs was the perfect place for players that fall between the gap of center and pugchamp
now theres just a big ass gap

just make 198 alts

i liked freakpugs bring it back

THERE IS NO SKILL GAP IF LOWER LEVEL PLAYERS STARTED PLAYING PUGCHAMP

no servers
