SAM FUCKING LINGLE

the idea actually sounds kind of neat, no need to be a dick. i still have some old pov's/stv's from past seasons. maybe have something with a couple of players from the match commenting on it and remembering plays from it.

i'd bring up the same comparison to medic in 6v6. everyone thinks they can play the class and that it doesn't take any skill while in reality there are only 3-4 players who are truly good at the class. yes you can play it and be semi-effective but there is still a much higher skill ceiling that is attainable. its hard to explain the things that make a top medic different than just any random high level one, but its normally those situations where the player makes you just go "wow" after pulling something off. its the same with engie/heavy in HL. there are very few actual good ones, and to most people they wouldn't really notice the difference between watching them play. but playing on a team with a high level heavy compared to a new/decent one (looking at you panic) its night and day.

a big reason 6v6 became the more "standard" gametype was more due to the fact that its much easier getting 12 players on than 18, and that lans are much easier to organize/attend with only 6 players. the game and the meta has changed so much since release that maybe it is time to reevaluate the most effective format and see if the same findings still hold true.

gametypes don't determine if a team plays passive or aggressive, players do. the meta for last esea was slow as fuck and it wasn't just because of the quickfix. HRG played a passive style and our team wasn't confident enough to play aggressive against them which led to the whole game being slow.

if people ever watch mTs play they will see our team almost never plays slow, even against teams that are notoriously passive. i will agree that more teams in HL play passive than most in 6s but that is definitely not a fault of the gametype; it is a fault of the teams either being too uncoordinated to play aggressive or just them believing that playing slow is most effective for them.

pretty much what skyrolla said. both take skill, people that think HL takes less skill than 6s probably have never played it or only played at silver level. I enjoy highlander because it lets me practice my calling a lot more than 6s. communication in HL is huge and having your whole team on the same page takes a lot more skill than it does in 6v6. both are fun and challenging in their own regards.

don't think anyone implied that. its like having mix^ vs hrg on and casting two low invite teams. its a disservice to the community and fans who want to watch. im not saying lower level matches shouldn't be casted but the hype matches between top teams should always be a higher priority. anyway i'll probably end up streaming my pov so people will at least have some way to watch it.

you'll probably still have 100 ping, atleast enigma does almost every night.

i had some cool plays that lan besides just blowing myself up :x

marisa and i met online so she is really used to calling me harb.

sounds like an awesome idea. i'd love to see something like this

i did that! but since my fingers are kinda weird the end up bending funny when i throw the ball...
