Good game, great cast as always. Elchi got my vote. Well done organisers, I can imagine it took a lot of effort.

Cheers, was definitely a good game. Maybe you’ll see some more in the future if I can be bothered again.

As far as i’m aware, the USA pro team lost Badwater to the pub team and had a close game on one of the other maps. It’s not as easy as you think for the pros. Remember we are used to playing against another standard team. Playing against a permanent spy is extremely fustrating (especially a pub spy) not to mention always walking around the corner into a level 3 SG that you didn’t expect.

If the pub team gets a single pick on your medic and kills a few players, it’s not uncommon to get simply brute forced all the way back to your last and lose the round simply because you don’t have the damage or survivability to kill that many players heading towards you.

Occasionally a couple of the pub players really shine and could easily be considered mid+ / high level competitive players, it mostly depends on how their ‘pick’ classes perform, such as the sniper and spy. The care free pyro is another one to watch out for.

Word, we did the same once within our community, HH regs vs -HH2- and it wasn’t pretty, the numbers sure weigh in quite heavily at times (though some of our regs could easily play div5 so.. :P).

Anyway, good job Shintaz on getting this organized.
