KingsdenComing from a Dota/CSGO standpoint (so like actual esports) seeing shit like this is downright cringey
snip
No sorry, I come from an ACTUAL esports background, from an ACTUAL esport (Top Dota 2 player in the Americas, amateur tourney experience)
Damn dude I wish I could be a top player for any game and only have amateur tourney experience. Considering I googled you and found like nothing at all I think its safe to say your bullshitting right now.
The TF2 team is tiny, this game has had extremely questionable additions balance-wise. A great number of people are overreacting to stuff, but in all honestly this whitelist is pretty fucked up when you consider that valve won't get around to fixing things very quickly. At the very least I think everyone agrees that the base jumper, atomizer, jarate, and rescue ranger are all fucking stupid and need to get banned again asap. Good cases are being made for the cow mangler, loch n load, gunslinger, beggars, air strike and natascha. I really want to see this shit reworked because I fear for the health of the game and I am sure many other people share that sentiment :/
