Touche'
Holy shit if you think envy was bad...I'm just blown away. Actually it is you, so it doesn't suprise me quite as much, but still.

Does anyone have the spiridian demo where he came away with like 50 MAs in a match against Ill?
i've seen all the old 5150/c22 demos.

tbh none of them are even remotely impressive.

my theory is everyone sucked in comparison, but they still sucked. thats the only way i can justify seeing such garbage win consecutively.

just watch one of their demos.

however, they were pretty good for the amount of time they played the game. Good teamwork and such. they just aren't this amazing team that everyone makes them out to be.

I'd love to see it, really I would.


I was watching the demo of him on FORT against 5150, and he didn't do a single constructive thing to help the team for atleast 8 minutes. He's a TERRIBLE heavy offense, and even worse LO. About 4 or 5 minutes in he has a chance to chain out their capper who's at 30% health. He fails miserably, and ends up getting owned and the capper just falls onto the flag and caps it as the capper kills him. I mean, it's just horrendous. The entire demo is so fucking terrible I had to quit 11 minutes in, because I just couldn't bear to watch it anymore.


Shitty HO routes, No aim, zero awareness. you show me a demo that reflects skill and I'll change my mind. But I'd be happy to watch the demo with you so we can discuss how shitty it is.
When I mean shitty routes, I mean absolutely terrible heavy O routes, fucking slow as dirt pathetic routes.



Fucking random mortar shots into no where, he could have just let Julius do all the work since he was the only HO doing anything. How you miss a capper thats 20 ft in front of you at 30% health as a HO with NOONE around is beyond me.

lately it has been rather boring....but coming from someone who also posts on a forum for a game he hasn't played in god knows how long isn't all that much better now is it?
I'm pretty sure the demo I saw of Envy was on spiridian, it was badass.

posting idly from work is one thing.

Watching old players demos and critiquing their gameplay this late in the life of the game....priceless.

It's quite clear that you need the community to stroke your ego and tell you how good you are blitz.

Blitz was the best player in T:V history, bar-none. Will that stop the endless tirade of nonsense? I doubt it but it's worth a shot

I saw this one too and was impressed.
there is a demo of dm and i playing defense together on fort. he had his echelon tag on and i had my black chapter tag on. just throwing that out there.

you know, i never found dk to be that good either when we pubbed, but that was pubbing. i like the god fearing guy now b/c he likes soccer. and he was fun to play with in tf2.
are you fucking retarded

you stupid fuck

envy was one of the best players, dude didn't even pub that much after a while and just played match to match and still dominated

you should be slapped for making such a dumb fucking thread this is the dumbest shit i have ever read in my life

Well please share. Obviously I am mis informed, nor am I drawing any comparisons to myself (eso) and I would VERY much like to watch a demo of an old school player that doesn't completely blow ass.

maybe you should actually watch the demo(s) that I am referring to before you fly off the handle like a twat .

I have seen envy's spiridian demo. Pretty sick. I have no clue if he was good outside that, but it is easily the most impressive demo I've seen.

Mainly because almost all demo's suck. And no one good demos.

Thank you.



Punanie, get out of the big boys thread.
shut your mouth blitz. you lash out at anyone that doesn't completely agree with you.

I wasn't all that impressed with that demo. Although I didn't watch the whole thing because I got bored. Not to say that I'm better then him because I'm not.

But 50 MAs is impressive in such a long match? I didn't pay attention when it started but is it safe to say half hour?

Most of the people he MAed weren't paying attention to him so they weren't dodging at all.

But he did do a great job protecting his capper and did what he could to defend his base.

Darklord. really? gay cap tactics.

also, no degrapple and 15 graps. This demo made the problems with that really obvious. Ima agree with whoever said that you all suck. I didn't see anything amazing.

You all suck and those of us that aren't as good as you suck even more. I've seen better in T2 and T1 and that's sad because TV is supposed to be the easiest.

edit:and i've never said this before but, who are all of you? I didn't hear about any of you when I played T2. Granted I played arena and never competed because of a shitty 56k connection and pos comp.

quit holding on to any delusion of grandeur. You're all nobodies. The elite of tribes left TV before it even started.

It's "prime" was just a bunch of mediocre from the other tribes. And now we're left with the shitties.

envy-36 midairs after 25 mins.


honestly, all i saw was odio dueling.

no attention to the flag really at all....every time the flag dropped next to him, he was busy trying to scale around a MA to pick it up.

It's "ok" at best.


I can't beleive anyone would vouch for this guy on a competitive level. he fucking dueled heavies and spawn who basically ignored him all match. 80% of his MA's were splash damage MA's and he lost his teams flag 5 times by not paying attention, because he was busy going for mid airs rather than protecting the carrier or grabbing his flag.


It's just absolutely MIND BLOWING how ANYONE could argue that he was as good as the pedastool he's placed on.
Blitz you are so fucking dumb it is beyond words. I cannot wait for legions where you can learn your place.

quoted just because it's funny.

If you had put as much effort into T:V as you do trying to make the vets look bad, and posting inane nonsense you might have been good

maybe he was stay home LD, or supposed to just kill offense, and not a chaser?

anyways your point of comparison is stupid

these are matches that were played in the first few months the game came out

it is now 4 years later

would you also like to argue about how the 1976 miami dolphins sucked ass because they ran simple antiquated plays that could easily be worked by any of today's coaches?

slut was good for his time. you were also present during that time, and you sucked ass.

heh, funny to see everyone defend this guy and everyone rags on odio when they play virtually the same position and odio prob has better aim.

dont even say flag awareness....because envy has none.

demo=proof.
I've never played with envy outside of a pub, and i have better things to do than to watch his demo so i shant comment on that.

I'm just here for the hilarity
At this point I am fairly certain Blitz / Shanks etc are just trolling to get a response from some of you...so I'll respond too!

dK I actually agree with Blitz sadly enough...wasn't on the same level as Trem Jules or even Nurp (though I'm not going to start throwing names like Rico and Sound_Guy around)

Envy and slut, I really can't even comment on that...enough has been said.


I do find it kind of ironic that the same guy who defends his social life on TW by saying he drinks and smokes is in the film room critiquing matches that occurred years ago.
any demo vs 5150 is gonna be pretty shaky at best, because well, its vs 5150. good luck being productive there. and envys job on spiridian was pretty much solely to stop their heavies from raping our base while we got theirs down, which went pretty damn well.
if he didn't have routes, then i'd prob just chalk that up to not caring enough to practice, cause i had ho route demos up on the 22 ftp for a lot of the maps we played. we shifted him around a lot between ld, ho, lo, and even podding as i recall

he probably could have done better, but hes envy, he didn't need 100% to get by with the exception of 5150. as anyone who knew him in t2 would know, he was versatile and could excel at anything. easily, easily one of the best players to pick up that game. i'm sure he dominated the shit out of any other team in T:V we played.

can i be present for said learnin'?

i never had the pleasure of playing with envy and company. i did play with slut and dk a few times and they really do up your game as will eso and doubt. the problem is that you're judging on individual skill and not team play value. get a grip blitz, you would've never beat legacy if you didn't have me, fandam (rip), and myst backing up the defense and prodigy and abu running routes.
Julius, are you planning to play legions if it is good?
i have no idea i haven't looked into it at all. are there any downsides to running it on the browser?

currently there isnt any dedicated server support. But its not into the beta yet, and they have recently said that there will be dedicated server support eventually.

No matter how many times someone says that to these people, they will never understand the concept of trusting each person to do each individual job assigned to him. I suggest you get out of here while you can.

it was like 35 not 50. envy had excellent aim no doubt, but ills ho completely blew on that map. they were WALKING along the border ffs, and when they were running a normal ho route they were slow as fuck...no wonder they were in spawn for most of the time. other times they were STANDING there in heavy spamming like noobs. it was beyond laughable. i dont know what they were thinking, i remember ills ho were pretty good, maybe doubt can fill us in. also, most of his ma were the cheesy kind the other person is like 11 inches of the ground and you shoot the ground. then again, he did get a good number of mas on shield pack heavies so it probably evens out.

and blitz take this as a rare piece of friendly advice, not just for this game but every team based game in general: teams whose players play cowboy don't win matches. in a team based game everyone has a role to do. its not about having the greatest aim, awareness, etc..its about being the best at your particular role. granted there are a few Michael jordans but they are the exception not the norm. that said, being able to adjust when NEEDED is invaluable.

naw, the browser doesn't cause any problems at all. You can also run it full-screen anyways (which I'm sure everyone will do). The browser is just going to be the platform, and wont really have much to do with the actual game.
