Help Send Witness Gaming EU to Denver LAN 2025!

Donate Here! < updated

We are finally fulfilling our long-term dream of competing at a North American intercontinental LAN! Denver 2025 will be the biggest and most competitive TF2 LAN since Feb 2018, hosting NA, EU and Australia. We can't wait to compete against the best teams in the world and represent the EU region!

Our Team:
For those of you who do not follow European TF2, Witness Gaming EU was created in 2022 to compete at i69 where we finished 2nd, losing 3-1 in the Grand Final. Since then we have gone on to win every European event which we have entered: 4 ETF2L seasons and 2.5 EU LANS (RCADIA, i71, PoLAN).

Our roster for Denver 2025 is:
Pocket Scout: toemas
Flank Scout: ixy
Roamer: hugo
Pocket: papi
Demoman: LUKASTANK
Medic: auto

Our Fundraiser:
We are fundraising to help cover the cost of our flights to Denver in May 2025, and are looking for support from the TF2 community! We are offering a range of Perks and Milestones to generous donators, the full list and our cost breakdown can be found on our indiegogo page

Please read post #5, it explains the Witness Gaming Friend perk.

Our Story and Upcoming Competitions:
Unfortunately, due to some issues we were not able to attend a North American LAN in either 2023 or 2024, which lead to the team taking an extended break after PoLAN 2024. However, with the announcement of Denver 2025 we are back and will be playing in the upcoming ETF2L Season and PoLAN.tf 2025 LAN against Europe's best teams! We will also be arriving early in Denver for a bootcamp to scrim against NA and Australia.

Everyone on the team is really excited about these upcoming months of TF2, but we will need the communities help to get to Denver 2025! We can't wait to participate in the most hype TF2 event of the Decade!

Thanks for reading and CU@

1. Absolutely. There is no place to play high level games outside scrims rn.

2. Maybe couple games got killed bcs lower skilled players picked bad teams, but you can fix that by giving captain roles to certain players. Never really had problems with admins.

3. Elo makes it a bit more "competetive" which could result in better games (ppl not trolling etc.) Its not necessary tho imo. Would look more "fancy" but i understand its harder to create.

4. I think mumble is the way to go, ppl are just used to it.

5. Need admins on higher skill level to understand which players are capable of playing different classes, which players are allowed to captain and stuff like that.
Cant remember rules that were used for tf2online but offclassing for last only makes the pugs better imo. Playing against ppl that abuse 10 min offclassing on sniper is just unfun.

"Do you think creating a new site might fragment the community or harm the existing player base? Would it be better for the TF2 scene to avoid having multiple platforms?"

- About this, I just completely agree with what Cuby said above. As i said earlier there is no place to grind outside scrims and site like this will only benefit higher divs. Players from div 1/2 might get noticed and get a chance in some prem teams, stuff like that.

I got noticed years ago on pugchamp when it was still alive, stomped some noobs like Papi and SVMZI, later they picked me up and it basically started my entire demo era. It opens up ways for new upcoming talents to get recognized.

do you have any other recommendations? Ive seen a lot of good OLEDs being introduced but i dont want to spend 1k on monitor

currently picking between ViewSonic XG2431 and BenQ XL2540K

ive seen good recommendations above on the viewsonic + optimum tech guide, on the other side i read about some ppl having problems with the screen after like 6 months of use (half of the monitor just dies)

looking for monitor upgrade from my 144hz(Asus VG248) would like 240hz monitor around 400 dollars, any recommandations?
