there was a youtuber by the name of ned who occasionally uploaded tf2 rocket jumping clips among other things. apparently he deleted his account today and that really sucks because he uploaded his own song. in fact, it was his most recent upload. i really liked it and when i went to listen to it again today, i found that i couldn't because he deleted his account as mentioned previously. i'm not aware of any tf2 rocket jumping forums so this is the best place i could think of to post this. please un-delete your account, that "i've reached the top" song is awesome.

idk if that's how you spell their names, but star mentions them a few times in his old videos, and i can't find anything about them on youtube or google.

wasn't saying we are wrong to use 6, i was asking why the difference existed at all and IF people think we should use a different amount.

so most competitive games have a team size of 5 but tf2 has 6. how did we end up with the extra player? were we right to reach this conclusion? what makes say, 4s or 5s less good? if bans were lifted, what would players likely gravitate towards in their team formations and strategies? i've always had the nagging feeling that tf2 competitive should totally gravitate towards what is most effective, rather than banning broken things for stalematiness or whatever other problem. on one hand competitive might be a bit more shit but on the other hand maybe valve would put some more effort into balancing the weapons rather than not doing anything for the longest time, since players would be subjected to the poor balancing.

thank god. i never found out if they did something about his "coaching" until now.

i haven't been playing close attention lately. is that still a thing that's allowed?

the solution needs to be thought of from the perspective of tf2 as a whole, and not just the 6s meta. points cap faster but cap progress can be instantly reverted by defenders, so attackers AND defenders need to both be stronger. cut down max cap time to 5 minutes so if a team wants multiple chances, they can't sit around forever. in the end though half of the class roster is built around stalemating so that needs to be changed.

i said before that you can't say for certain if crowns would have won without kaidus coaching. the point of this is to talk about the future of competitive tf2.

i should look harder next time lol

never said you're bad or anything but a 7th person is an objective advantage cut and dry. would you win without kaidus? don't know and never will, but the fact remains that it's a resource that other teams don't have access to.

i can't have opinions because i'm in a tf2 mod group and i never posted anything?

i would say yes. not everyone can afford to fly a coach around, and it gives the team with a coach an advantage by allowing the players to focus almost entirely on DM and following instructions. yes this is in response to crowns winning.
