You need a place to publicly post the picture then of them getting tabled witha score sheet and sad face but yes, absolutely

@Kieransi our time has come. I must find the audio file (I probably deleted it, but we shall see).

I got Tyson 100-0 at the regional RIGHT BEFORE they put on the bounty, then he gave up podcasting. That's as close as I've gotten :(

And then I found out Gordon from Stay on Target doesn't count either. Double whammy!

why doesn't Gordon count?

Showing my age, but I miss playing the TF mod for Quake back in the 90s. TF2 is a good game, just doesn't have the pixelated nostalgia.

Where do you get custom acrylics like that made?

No really, curled paw does all our stuff and it's fantastic. I don't know Andrew's forum tag so grab him here, but their stuff is fantastic and I can't recommend it enough. If you need anything custom done I'd just message them and mention promo code krayt (note, there is no promo code krayt)

He has a comfy Krayt Kage now. I guess we should blame you?

Oh curled paw does custom stuff? Cool! If I contact them, I'll mention that the Krayts sent me, though I'm not sure if that will lower or raise the price! :P

It would probably be easier for the Krayts to distribute templates in Gordon's general area by packaging them with core sets. I hear he's the worst!

I guess you could. Unfortunately I don't have proof of either incident :)

Edit: Curled Paw IS amazing! I've had some things custom cut there too for giveaways and its top notch!

Also, it looks like we have:

@Kaptin Krunch as Engi.

@LagJanson as Heavy

@Kieransi as Soldier

And Myself as flex, probably mostly medic so I can heal you all. Seems like a solid team comp.

That's not 4 Heavies, an engineer, and a Med. Build a wall of meat!

Or 6 Engineers- Look at all of the Sentry Busters!

We do need a scout for MvM though. I was speaking more in terms of casual play.

Things I never expected - to be the freakin' tank in a party. I still have no idea why moving poorly and spraying bullets in all directions is working for me... Wait.... OOoooooh...

That's what we forgot! Does it count if the Youtuber spent weeks being teased about the Tabling during their weekly Youtube stream (all archived for posterity)? And if part of the commentary track for their local regional was people disbelieving he got tabled by a 7 year old and him having to tell the story again? ;)

We sadly don't play enough anymore for my son to be in full tabling shape, but he did finish fifth/fourth (depending how you rank dropped players) in last weekend's store kit, losing only to #1 (me) and #3.

I should had gotten a picture of Budget when he realized that 1 bank with Yorr was going to put him off three turns later. Sadly I forgot about the bounty and didn't try ultrahard to not lose half points on Han. Git gud Budget.

You aren't a tank (at least in non-MVM games)- Your health is a resource that you can use to trade for kills, using your large damage output, and compensating for your lack of mobility. You can still get rekt really quickly. 3 grenades, 3 scattergun shots- You still die. You play like a FPS equivalent of a B-wing, or a non-engine RAC more honestly.

Oversimplification on my part, intentionally. I was actually drawing a parallel to turrets. RAC being a pretty good one.

In all games, I prefer mobility, I just suck at it.

Try scout when we play MvM. you get health from cash, and can tank pretty well. Just run near things dying, and profit.

Considering a redesign

I think you should go for a desert sand with the coiled krayt bones in white from IV.

I kind of surprised that the krayts don't already have a set of templates made out of very soft rubber or elastic!

Have you not played Kylo Ren? That is basically his pilot ability.

Heavy super cares about his facing, as he does need to aim. He just deals ludicrous amounts of damage when spun up. Even the literal turrets in Tf2 only shoot forwards- They do spin though, and watching a scout run around one in a circle hitting it with a fish as it fails to face him is hilarious.

I'll join too if I've got nothing going on tonight. I'm best with Engi, Soldier, Scout, or Pyro.

Please be scout in MvM. I really want to play medic, or really anything other than scout.
