Highlander Nations Cup #3 powered by Tt eSPORTS: Whitelist Update

With the unfortunate timing of the most recent update, we didn’t have long to decide where the unlocks and taunts would be positioned within the whitelist. After some very brief testing we’ve come to the following conclusions:

  • The Conga taunt if used at the end of a round can glitch hitboxes for the next round. Therefore it will be banned.
  • All the new weapons will be allowed.

It has come to our attention that some of the other taunts can be used to get inside enemy spawns, or clip through walls. We remind you that bug abusing is not allowed and you can be punished for it.

The whitelist for 9v9 has been updated and can be found here.

    Seriosly thought tide turner is one of the biggest “Hai guise I am an asshole xD” weapons I’ve ever seen. It is so fucking obnoxious. This sort of shit doesn’t deserve its spot in ANY sort of league. Please reconsider allowing it ETF2L.

    Weapons like chargin tard and splendid shit makes a little suitable for med picks. Imagine the med picks with the tide turner ;_;

  16. Fuxx: REMOVE said:

    med picks with the targe and splendid screen?

    M8 what kind of retard fest you call highlander are you playing?

  17. Max: Fusion said:

    no I just said it gets EASIER.

  18. Fuxx: REMOVE said:

    no demo would choose any shield over the current stickies, regardless of how OP said shield is

    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  19. ondkaja: IKEA said:

    if any demos seriously considers using the shield i’ll just thank them for crippling themselves

  20. Vlijm: UbeR | said:

    I want to thank not neutral for the best conga official and rollouts #freekonga

  21. Jwso: ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡9 said:

    Is it considered an exploit to look through the corner with a taunt? What about if it’s in a spot where you can see players through a wall (like from the crates on Snakewater last)?

  22. Fuxx: REMOVE said:

    I don’t recall it being listed against the rules anywhere and besides you can the exact same without taunting- just listen carefully and you can not only hear the continuously healing medigun but also pinpoint where the medic is just from that. Taunting just makes it easier.
