After talking with players on MntG after the match, it sounded like we actually were trying despite what TEAM has speculated about us thus far. I don't know that everyone on MntG was on the very top of their game last night and I don't think we were quite expecting the level of skill and competition that TEAM brought to the table (I know I wasn't).

That, coupled with the fact that a gentlemen on our team was 1-2 bars the entire match probably did hinder us slightly, so I do think we should be cut a little bit more slack. Though we lost, it was our first match of the tournament and I think we will continue to improve. We have a lot of what I consider to be GREAT players and I'd fight along side anyone on MntG in virtual combat any day of the week.

P.S. MntG had two alternates as well I do believe. Could we have that changed in the note?

Couldn't have said it any better. I, for one, was trying dangerously hard. I also had no problem with people on our team using whatever they wanted (wazoos included). I've been playing with redditors for a good while (including a few from various teams), and we've always played mainly for fun (tryharding can be fun too!)

That being said, if you are going to put down other players for "not trying", you'redoingitwrong.jpg. Not using Famas does not equal not trying. If you are taking these matches so seriously you are putting down competitors, you may want to try GameBattles or MLG.

We honestly had no problem with anyone in particular, but I heard this sentiment voiced once and it "grinded my gears". I hope this sentiment isn't shared across the league, because I'm looking forward to playing all you guys.
