@GrimAndy
Grim, A pocket shouldnt realy jump over rockets if he’s been overhealed he should ‘eat them’ to stop the medic taking damage but if he’s low and the medic isnt, Go for it.

When learning to play demoman , its crucial that you take into acount that every demo has his or her own style of play and each demo has diffrent strong points that they like to use to his/her advantage, I have also learnt over time that your pipe aim wont be perfect as there are few too many variables to calculate in short spaces of time always espicaly if you have a tricky little scout such as cheeseofdooom hopping your midairs and making you rage a bit 😛
But the key point too take here is that you must develope your own techniques and strategies, you can learn alot from other players but its not a good idea to copy everything from a specific demo.

NB!! Situational awareness is EXTREMELY important, when to spam , when to jump and even when to reload.

Just by knowing a little thing like knowing when to jump as a medic can save you countless times. Often just by jumping a rocket will go straight under you saving you from damage and having to fall back. Little things like this win matches.

For pure overseas pwnage, try http://www.pldx.com.
http://www.gotfrag.com has many tf2 demos and if you look for the ones that are marked “HLTV” you can see anyones perspective, or watch 3rd person at how a PRO team pushes together.
Remember that yes, you do get better at tf2 by just playing it over and over. BUT theory and actually TRYING to learn something more about the game every day is what truly makes you better.
Read guides.
Watch demo’s, i know for some people watching a demo is boring, but just pay attention to your specific class and what he does and it will improve not only the way you play the game, but the way you think about the game.
EVERY CLAN should read this : http://tf2.co.za/news/push-guide-by-sigma/
and EVERY PLAYER should read this : http://www.ubercharged.net/how-to-play-tf2/the-competitive-tf2-guide/

Other than that, don’t be afraid to ask for help. SATF2 is at a point now where all the people that dislike eachother are coming together and trying to better the community as a whole, so don’t think people won’t help you. It does the top teams a WORLD of good if they can make the low tier teams better…

Anyone for demo?

Good point you making there Deacan. Our new clan toxic has that problem. Without a medic knowing the order in which he has to heal his teammates and positions and spots he has to stand, things can get pretty difficult. Luckily we have seamonkey helping us 😀

If anyone wants to learn about being a medic…Skillpig, Andy and Seamonkey are probably the best at the mo but if you wanna settle for second best I’m more than willing to give some pointers or sub in games and talk to your medic. Its a crutial position in any team a lot to the lower level teams need to work hard as a team to improve there medic as well as there team work with the medic. If you can get into pick ups try playing pubs together. Like medic, soldier and demo. Just an idea.
