ABOUT

It's actually happening! After what feels like an eternity-and-a-half Valve finally revealed the Jungle Inferno update, adding some spicy new unlocks for the fiery maniac, as well as adding a slew of weapon rebalances to the existing weapons.
So how will all of this effect competitive TF2? Will pyro replace soldier? will the reign of scout be over? Should I stop drinking mercury? There is only one way to find out: A grand show-match featuring some of the best players in the game and all of the unlocks being allowed!
Nuze and Buttnose,two of Europes finest tactical minds, have agreed to assemble a mighty team apiece and go head-to-head on two staple maps and perhaps a game on Lazarus, one of the new KOTH maps that was added in the update.
This is a one-in-a-lifetime opportunity (going by Valve's update schedule) to see some of Europe's top TF2 talent figure out how to use and abuse an unlock in real time, so make sure to tune in to essentialstf's stream this Saturday, the 21st of August at 21 CET, and be part of TF2 history as it unfolds!
Thanks to the good folks over at whitelist.tf we will be giving away several cool items for the viewers via raffles during the stream, so not only will you get to see awesome TF2 action, you might also get lucky and walk home with some shiny items to boot!

Due to the unpredictable nature of TF2 updates this was all pushed to Saturday.

I'm awaiting update notes before I figure out which killstreak kits to raffle off during the stream.

We will have two captains pick teams from a pool of players, so you get your wish. I will not announce who those players are, since there's a good chance that the player pool could change now that the match has been postponed.

Buttnose Nuze Sil Kaido Papi Alba Funs Mon Menty Crayon Dr.Phil Ixy

We'll do pug style player picks, as mainclass as we can (sil and alba are pyro mains now)
