O hey, it’s Highlander!

It’s been an exciting season this summer but hasn’t gotten a lot of attention. But no worries, we’re here to change that with an all Super match. The KANNONEN take on the JUNIORS!

Super Dickmann's JUNIORS! have had a bit of a shaky start to the season but managed to get themselves the 3rd place spot on the tables. Super Dickmann's KANNONEN! on the other hand got themselves a solid looking 2nd place on the tables only dropping points to Strong Opinions.

Did  Super Dickmann's JUNIORS! pull themselves together well enough to stand up against  Super Dickmann's KANNONEN!? Find out tonight on Kritzkast with CeeJaey and   Zamparonie as your casters and with Wiethoofd on the camera.

Announcing Season 28!

First of all congratulations once again to Season 27 winners Arctic Foxes and Se7en for winning insomnia61. However there is going to be only a short break in the TF2 calendar with Season 28 signups open until 15th of September at 21:00 CEST. Due to the lack of time between insomnia61 and Season 28 there will not be any preseason cups.

Premiership signups will close on the 9th of September at 21:00 CEST

>>>> Sign up now! <<<<

Unlocks and Map Pool

The whitelist will remain unchanged from Season 27, if/when any rebalance updates occur we will provide updated information in a news post.

The map pool however is undergoing a few changes compared to Season 27. Cp_badlands is being replaced by Collaide‘s cp_prolands_b2b. This version brings in a few tweaks designed to make the last point easier to push out of, you can see a full changelog on the TF.tv thread. The more major change is the removal of granary and welcoming back an old friend, cp_sunshine. We have taken this decision because sunshine has had a few changes since we last ran it in a season. This combined with the lack of popularity with regards to granary and its divisive nature have led us to make the change for this season.

This change does not mean that granary is gone for good, we will be looking out for feedback regarding this decision.

• cp_prolands_b2b
