Thanks to big efforts from admin Jarrett and many others this season saw about 10 newbie teams playing ESEA Open. That's a lot! I don't know the fate of all of these teams but I wanted to give all the newbies a big shoutout for showing up and playing hard, especially to the teams that made it through the entire season. That is no small feat for lower level teams and it's something you guys should feel good about. You guys are true competitors for going hard and standing back up after getting smashed a lot, as expected. Extra-adoring shoutout to the two teams that I worked with this season, "HalfLifeMod NoLifeSquad" and "Newbie Invasion". Both teams had a whole host of problems come up during their season and roster shuffles but they kept it together and made it through. You guys are all awesome and it was a joy to see you improve noticeably week after week. I hope to see many names back at it next season as you guys continue to explore 6v6 tf2!

newbie invasion is guaranteed at least an 8-8 finish and might even be able to go 9-7. Pretty impressive for a newbie team!
Newbies are what will keep this game going, you're the next generation, keep up the awesome work.
pyritefish was a blast to play with back in silver and im glad her open team lasted longer than mine
That's crazy.. when I used to attend Newbie Mixes a couple years ago, this would have seemed crazy at the time. And Mixes were still super popular back then! I'd chalk this up to the people who run it these days. They're the unsung heroes! Keep droppin names imo
The fact that newbie mixes (and now the newbie team drive) is still churning out solid players makes my heart so happy! Couldn't ask for a better group of people to be running these things.

my first esea season on a newbie mix team has been one of the best experiences ever, hands down. I've had so much fun playing and making friends. seeing my teammates improve alongside me makes me feel so proud that we've made it this far.
ty to our coach neeko for putting in the time to mentor us, ty to my teammates for sticking together the whole season, and of course, ty to the people running newbie mixes! I hope the newbie team drive keeps on going! I'll never forget this treasure of a season <3
