HK vs. {TF2F} round 2

This week we play HK for round number 2. The maps were Mach4 and Gravel Pit.

In Mach 4, we started off a little shakey with them getting the first cap. After we established control in the middle we adapted to the 2 Engineer defense they were running. At any given point and time they had 3 to 4 sentry guns we had to take care of before capping the intel. We finally prevailed at removing those 4 times to cap the intel each time. Another good point to add was Shadow completly holding thier sniper at bay in a sniper war allowing us to control the middle. While Voss and Fragimus guarded our intel. We eventually won 4-1 on Mach4.

Gravel Pit was a different story. We started off attacking and again they had to full level 3 sentries up before the round started. One scout capped A while the rest rushed be and we eventually won that round. On defence HK capped the first 2 points really fast. We were able to hold them off till the last 30 seconds when the capped it. On our next attack we grabbed B really fast and moved on to a where it was a mess. We had a really hard time getting A, but managed to cap it with 1 minutes left. We managed to cap C pretty fast. On our last defense, we pretty much let them have A with only one demo guarding the point. Cap B on the other hand was a battle. The eventually take it with an unheard of 3 heavy, 3 medic, 2 solly combo. As they moved on to C the kept the same strategy it never really materialized for them.

final scores:
Gravel Pit: 6 to 5, in favor of the { } clan
Mach4: 4 to 1, in favor of the  { } clan

yep heres the pics

Just for the record, they only had 2 sentry guns at a time, per the class limits

Their defense was definitely tough to beat though, with 2 engineers, 1 dedicated-defense demo, and 2 other demos that played "midfielder". Once we settled into a rhythm with the uber-demo to take out the sentries, we were able to take control. I believe chuckles had a nice spy run with the intel as well. Props to fragimus max and voss for playing the sometimes-boring defender roles, you guys held it down well

I'll have a demo up soon of Gravel Pit, if you don't want random me jumping around, just go forward to tick 17500, or 4:20, that's where the real set-up starts.

Edit: Gravel Pit demo

Also, great match everyone, it was awesome

Yeah, that was really fun.  I was getting antsy on Mach3 though, and although my score suffered on Granary, I was glad to have been able to help on a couple of key captures and defenses.

Sorry for my lack of voice comm, btw.  I had my headset on the whole time, but when using Vent voice chat, everyone's voices were different volumes.  There was no consistency and I couldn't hear some players over the game sounds (which were at a decent level.)

I even responded - I heard, "You have to type to talk to him." and I was like, "I hear you, just not loud enough." - and then of course, someone would say something with 3 volume and someone else would say something at 11 volume.

Any suggestions in finding a middle ground when in-game?

Added:  Hahaha.... I just noticed you have one of my post round kills in that screenshot above.    I had been playing on pubs earlier, and I kinda forgot a few times that we were playing competitive rounds.  That's okay though, they got me back a few times.   I do remember hearing Voss, I believe, telling me to leave those poor bastards alone.  lol

Next time we play Granary, though, it would really help if - during setup - a few of you guys run over as Scout to where I'm bulding the SG and suicide yourselves back to spawn.  This will give me enough metal to have a 3rd level sentry waiting for them when the round starts.

Nice job! Sorry for the absence, here I was sitting playing in a server waiting for the time to come and lo and behold internet and cable tv just shut off. Its always a pleasure to deal with the cable company when your landlord pays everything and not you... hopefuly it it set back up soon.

Again, great job.

Newman...only 40 pts?

Good Job, Ladies ;-D

i was playing solly in mach 4 and when we were attacking on gravel pit. im not exactly good with that rocket launcher

After being asked to, I switched to soldier - but I was so ass-bad at it that I switched to demo.  I like the soldier class, I'm just godawful at playing it.

Nice work fellas! way to represent.
