i consider myself a reasonably good player on any 6s class and in that regard am pretty well off in advanced, however i'm not exactly the most recognizable player. ive never been huge on pugs so theres still a ton of people who dont know me. that said, it feels awful to be pushed into playing medic (really nobody should be pushed to play something) simply because a more recognizable player wants to play something else. its partially me not being known thats the issue but its kinda a catch22 because in order to play what i want (at least sometimes) i have to play a ton of medic pugs and then boom im known for playing medic. id rather just wait, added up to a different class and potentially not get picked, to eventually get a game on a class i DO want to play than to even add up to this system anymore.
fuck tf2center but its the only place i can really play what i want now in a semi competitive format
edit: also want to add that it doesn't help that i can't change my name on faceit without paying and then playing some. makes it even harder to be recognized. not an issue from the system but instead from faceit itself
