I am now firmly convinced that he will be better than rui hachimura

1) given when you started playing comp, competing in main/div 2 seems pretty fine. of course there are gonna be people who move up the ladder faster than you, but don't compare yourself to someone else today, compare yourself to you yesterday. I realize you're also worried about your lack of improvement, but keep in mind you also moved up vs better people, and a lot of it could be them punishing you for mistakes that went unpunished before.

2) much easier said than done, but get out of your own head. I've played against so many mge lord scouts that are terrible in game. sometimes it's because they have no gamesense, but a lot of the time it's literally them not coping with the pressure of hitting their shots in real games compared to a controlled practice environment. being mentally strong won't make you an invite player, but it absolutely does help with some of those 'beef' moments. it sounds like you also turn inward a bit when they happen and think about them for a long time, which is not healthy- focus on the next fight.

3) worst comes to worst, take a break for a week to refresh or spend it playing other classes. playing multiple classes will help you see the game from multiple perspectives and help skills translate over. also, and not everyone will admit this to you, if you REALLY feel like it's not helping, maybe a long term switch to soldier, demo, or medic wouldn't be the end of the world. if you're a high sens player who feels like your accuracy isn't improving, but your gamesense and comms are good, scout may be the class that emphasizes your weaknesses more than your strengths. that being said, I've also seen a lot of garbage scouts have everything 'click' and improve rapidly, so I wouldn't foreclose on that as a possibility either.

this took me on an emotional journey

yeah they never test vaccines, good point

do country names even have synonyms (other than myanmar and burma or things like that)

not to mention vietnamese, turkish, iranian, brazilian, nigerian, any sort of eastern european, filipino, indonesian, etc etc etc

which is to say, maybe 19 year olds on an american video game forum aren't the best arbiters of food!

the fact that american and british are beating french (and that american is beating korean) is a crime against humanity

I camped my own spawn 8 years ago, youngsanity wasn't even alive yet, you can clown on rkt a little longer for this

wow we got a downfrag mob running through this thread

more stifling eu regulations to hinder MY individual liberties

first I can't get unpasteurized cheeses, then I can't give facebook all my metadata without my consent, and now I can't play pyro!

if you suspect someone of robbing your house, ask them to return all the stuff they took

the steel in steel should be called "steel"

the irony is, because we have done a good job keeping this tiny scene alive for years, we're gonna keep having OK HERE'S HOW WE MAKE TF2 A REAL ESPORT threads all the time as newer players reach a certain level

it's literally a good sign that more people with stars in their eyes are coming into make these same naive arguments!
