hello all,

looking to help a few aspiring medics (like 2?) and possibly a low/mid open team next season to mentor. i used to mentor a few friends and their teams before, and i found it helped me stay focused when I wasn't scrimming every day.

i've played about 3 full seasons in ESEA, this season with Playground Tactics and last season with Server Depopulation Squad. I'm west coast and I'm on most evenings. down to do map reviews, demo reviews, spec scrims and whatever if you feel it will help you.

please note: i really don't want to help people that don't want it. there are plenty of people who will ask for advice and simply won't take it. it feels stupid to have to say this, but this is usually what turns me off to trying to help whole teams. just something to keep in mind.

thanks guys, add me and we can talk: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197966146199/

some dated knowledge but still useful. the clockwork videos about scout basics and midfights are pretty good.

also i wasn't aware you couldnt watch demos on a mac. that sucks.

i really enjoy these demo reviews :D

i think its also important to point out that at the low levels of 6s a lot of wins usually come down to DM fights.

meaning there isnt going to be a lot of emphasis on teamwork but more on hitting shots. if you recognize that, then i would even say your first step is getting your DM up to par before really trying to employ strats outside of basic positioning.

the next part is having everyone on your team get their rollouts down on every map: your heal orders need to be correct, your demo needs to hit the right jumps, your scouts need to coordinate where they are going at mid, and your roamer can't get too far away from your medic. your pocket should just be equalizing, but needs to know when to start getting healed so that both of your soldiers have ~300 when getting to mid.

even with those fundamentals in place, you'll probably win most of your matches in steel just by getting to mid quickly and with good health, and then the DM to take the rest of the points easily.

marxist is super helpful, im sure if you guys start scrimming and give him a STV demo to review he can give you more feedback later on.

and now we all know who the idiot is.

gg strat, super crazy fun game to play. i dropped more times this match than any other match this season

i was not aware people still played this game. does anyone know what the format will be? will it be classic tfc comp? ctf 9v9?
