Sooo... I thought it could be funny to try participating in the coming ETF2L 6v6 league. Just need some more interested people.

I set up a team called "Cartographers" on ETF2L.org. If you're interested, go look it up and write below which classes you have the greatest interest in.

I was thinking of making it a casual division 6 team, as i am quite busy at the moment, and have a feeling that i'm not the only one.

As far as i can see, a team is allowed to have quite a lot of substitues, so i'm thinking that we should just get a good amount of people on the team. Then it should be a pretty stress-free experience for less Committed players.


Note that this is a 6s league. Click here to read what the feck that means.

There aren't any restrictions on any countries. The rules specifically state that people from all countries are accepted.
The only thing is that all the servers will be in Europe, and time schedules will be in European times, so that would be a bit tricky to work around.
Regardless, depending on playtimes and scheduling of matches I might be able to do it, don't count on my word though. I play either roaming soldier or scout, so you can put my name there for now.

I would like to join, but I'm a sucky on competetive TF2 and I noticed that most of you players have more experience than me (and of course, I'm a such "newbie" on tf2 mapping). It means that it's better if I stay away and watch your results for the matches, if the team is ready to roll out.

Good luck!

Doesn't really matter what your skill level is as long as you have some form of mic and are able to speak and communicate on mumble with us.

This is probably the best way to sum comp 6s up for anyone tl;dr'ing:
ETF2L: "Most teams run 2 Scouts, 2 Soldiers, 1 Demoman and 1 Medic most of the time. Scouts protect the flank and dash in and out of combat to get finishing shots, one Soldier roams and acts as a “bomber” while the other Soldier protects the Medic, the Demoman deals out most of the damage and controls territory, while the Medic keeps the team alive and often serves as the team’s commander.

This is considered the “standard” class layout, a solid balance of speed, versatility and firepower.

Don’t let anybody tell you your team can’t play with a Pyro instead of a second Soldier though.
Just be aware that Pyro/Heavy/Engineer/Sniper/Spy all come with serious downsides and situational upsides, so you may find them tricky to use in a gamemode centered around speed and positioning. The more you play with it, the more you’ll learn when/where to use certain class and when/where not to use it. Remember that even now, after four years, 6v6 is still far from being “figured out”."

If you think you have the time and mic then for all means join the team! We're certainly not expecting very many people to apply so the more the merrier, even if you don't think you're any good. It's the lowest division, and it's meant for people with no comp experience. Have fun with it!

I'd being willing to play pocket, but as a yank I'm not sure how well my ping/timing will work out. Also, what dates does the season run for?

I mostly play as a Scout and Heavy on cp_badlands and plr_hightower. I have also played as a huntsman sniper, mostly on 32 slot servers. I do have a mic, but my english pronunciation is crummy. I'll might only say which direction I'm going to, providing simple but helpful information about the situation.

But I'm interested to give the role as a Div 6 Scout a shot.

interest gone

i'd only play pocket if you'd play medic <3

edit: i just practiced my rollouts for demo and I think I'd be fine with playing that, and i'm always up for playing pocket really - so just put my name down for all the classes (except medic) b/c i'd be fine with playing any.

I would love to join in as well but I mostly play either battle engie or regular engie, so I'm not sure of how much use I would be.

If you want any mentoring or run downs on each of the maps I am a division 4 6's player so I can help with that, but alas I have my own team so I wont be joining your team in anyway
