E: Oh I actually thought this topic was about underrated players. Now I'm sad :(

Double E: I guess I can think of someone who was overrated. Maybe wltrs? He has had an amazing history from the early days of TF2 and carrying that momentum to Epsilons golden age for example, but in his later days he was absolutely not what he used to be and probably rated too high for what his actual skill was. This was apparent in the fact he was kicked pretty fast from kaidus' Reason Gaming project in early 2015.

Demoman nerf back in late 2014 made this game fucking awful to play demoman

zoob is back PogChamp

rip vani ;_;

The mantreads buff looks cool. I'd assume anyone rocketjumping with those would be extremely hard to airshot, might be useful when bombing medics.

Nerfing medic (by banning crossbow) will just make medic less desirable to play. Definitely not something anybody should want at this state

I remember when I got kicked from my first team after playing in it for 1,5 years. I'm pretty sure I cried ( I was 15 then :D) but then I joined a team with other friends I made during my time in the first team and everything turned OK.

I'd say time will heal. If you have any teamless friends, try to make a team with them. Or perhaps you could join a multinational team (or pure Finnish team if your team was multinational). A change of scenery might help you find peace.

There was a potential team going for i58, but they ditched the idea after the team decided to play OW instead.

Also, my stats after a long motivation break

Hopefully Cardinal will be good. Phi seems to have a grasp on how to make working competitive maps.

Just to add on Coalplant: From what I've heard it's not as big of a sniper map as viaduct, which is a big plus. I'm not sure whether it has the fundamental flaws like viaduct (defending the point is the losing play). The map in Demoman's perspective looked really hard, without any good positions to hold from and no good traps from what I saw.

We played in it vs Sweden in a scrim where they had a worse lineup so it really didn't give a lot insight for me. The match vs Norway wasn't really anything, however for practice's sake we tried to always hold from our own high ground/sniper deck, which was really problematic for me as the underground passage seemed like a very easy way to flank me. I think I could have died on many occasions if the DM was there. Maybe if I watched some NA demos (hehe puns) I could see how it should be really played, or at least the most efficient way at this moment.

I don't think it will be added to any ETF2L seasons, as from what I've seen it's not really popular in NA either. It kinda worked for this lan as any koth map would save much more time than a 5 cp map (no 30 minute games, no golden caps). Actually, koth_warmtic was originally in the map pool alongside Coalplant which would have replaced Snakewater. This attempt from Heny was denied by pretty much every player from the tournament :)

Thanks for bren/beater/turbotabs for letting me sleep at the cabin even though you hated it being crowded. It really made my night (literally). I only managed to sleep 1 hour at the super cold Dreamhack sleeping area so getting a much nicer sleep was so awesome <3

also thanks everyone else who played, produced, organized or watched.

Actual preview

I hope sideshow will have time for guest casting ;_;

I think my max dpm is like 600-700 from trying to carry a tf2lobby. But getting 1200, most impressive.

Funny thing is that if you want high DPS, you need to have awful teammates but also awful enemies so you can 1v6 them.
