Hello!
Does this group of people have an appetite for some competitive csgo? I'm talking getting registered on something like Enemy Down and getting involved.
I've not done this since my cs v1 days - I'd love to give it a go for a season or two at least :)
Enemy Down is no longer a thing. I think ESEA is the place to go now.
That certainly sounds interesting, depending on whether I could fit it into my schedule I would be up for that. I would need to wait until August for that though.
Ok - thanks for the pointer Jewelz. I have a FaceIT account already and I'm looking around for other avenues. Do you fancy it?
Dex - that's cool. I doubt it'll be something we rush into :)
Anyone else with some interest?
Do you even have to ask? You know I'm game. I'll ping some people on steam, so who I can find.
I'd be up for it :boxing:
Would be fun count me in
If I'm on! Count me in!
Definitely interested, cut my teeth playing ED & GBGL(?) leagues years ago when I was any good.
I have a FaceIT account I think but haven't ever played on it.
Have heard good things about ESEA but apparently it is a skill level step up from FaceIT. Never tried so no idea of level required.
I'd recommend starting with some faceit tournaments, we'd be completely dominated in ESEA so I think starting with faceit isn't a terrible plan.
Yeah faceit sounds best to start with. Just need to see who's interested then we can organise teams etc.
It's great that some of us want to get involved in competitive play.
If there's anything we admins can do to help you, just shout.
The only thing we ask, is that if you play with the dMw tag, you remember that you are being ambassadors for the community and behave as such.
Ok - Groovy!
How do we feel about having structured sessions where we go bash some people on faceit? I'm keen to learn some team strats with focus on smokes & flashes and timing plays. I'd like to be part of a team, rather than play with 4 other individuals!
I'm down for this but can probably only commit to say, twice a week. How intense are you planning on getting into this?
Also on the ESEA/FaceIt discussion, pretty sure ESEA is paid membership. I'd rather give it a go on something free like FaceIt, at least to start.
I suppose this depends how keen the other guys are. My csgo nights are Monday and Tuesday nights. I have a band practice on Wednesdays, Frisbee practices on thursdays and on Fridays I get crunk with my homies.
Faceit Fo Sho. I'm not up for paying to play, unless we get REALLY good.
Alright Ladies,
If you want to play on FaceIt you all have to sign up. Short of standing on toes.
Here's the link.

Well said, that should be a goal for all of us :)
Dex has a good youtube video for some smokes and flashes, can't find the link though.
Also if we use TS are we alright to use one of the CSGO channels on DMW?
You are welcome to use a cs channel. We can arrange a specific channel too if you require one

There are a couple of other videos on the channel, specifically for Mirage, Inferno and Cache.
Played our first two games on this yesterday. Myself, Gibbo, Chico, Peter-Pan and Pie got destroyed on Inferno 16-2 although they were very suspect. The 2nd game we swapped pie out for peanuts and lost 16-14 on Cache. Both servers we're abit laggy, but we got left with French servers. Still very good fun though :)
I think the best way to do this short of having a set day, would be just to set it up like we do MM. Grab five people from friends list when you feel like a game and just launch through faceit.

you need uni and pesteh they were the ones who dragged us to victory at the lan ;P
woah... hang on, sure it wasnt my amazing skill? :roflmao:
Won our first Faceit game last night 16-10 I think it was in the end. Myself,Chico,Pnuts,Wheelz and a Random (Was meant to be Pesteh but he managed to do something and not get into the team) Was very easy compared to the other 2 games so not sure what happened there? Maybe we just turned amazing overnight.
Somehow I seem to have taken over the FaceIt team (Sorry Myopic). As it stands I'm still trying to get people in the team. To join the team, you need to make an account on FaceIT then add me as a friend, search for Jewellsy in the top left. Once you are my friend I can then invite you to the team which you then have to accept. I'm waiting on about 7 people to accept invites at the moment.
There is currently no set night for FaceIT matches so the plan is to play on Boomer from 7-9:30ish then after that we'll see where we sit. The main reason for this is that unless Boomer is full, it generally kills the server when 5 people suddenly drop to play elsewhere.
I'd love to play this evening!
There are some good maps on the workshop for learning grenade spots.
Once my exams are over I will be interested in playing more matches. It would probably be handy to focus on 1 map at a time. Provide a thread here somewhere of some simple and common grenade spots and learn those before trying to practice every map?
Wait, once your exams are over? Are you doing a university/college course or something then? (Sorry, its just that hearing an adult say "Once my exams are over" is a little weird for me)
adult?
:roflmao:
Just a little FaceIT carry session ;P Good game chaps!

Is anyone still up for playing matches here?
I still go on now and then, and Swiggs has recently made an account. Just send you a friend request, hopefully catch you on there soon!
I'm on FaceIt too! Been long since I last played. But good to play together with different ranks for all those scared of deranking!
I am also registered. -> drsadako
Think I've said it before but it would be good to get on a map and go through some smokes/flashes/strats etc before a match
Maybe a regular night?
I'm keen as a bean for this still :) Tap me up whenever you're on. I've been a bit lackluster over the last week due to the new season of diablo3, but I'm back :D
im down for any sort of Team you wanna biuld :D:D:D:D:D iv got faceit premium
How about Wednesday night to do some walk through's on a few maps with smokes and flashes etc?
But you'll all be too busy playing Overwatch on Wednesday night :norty:
You mean the overwatch demo viewer in csgo right?
