A big question...



So here's the thing that most competitive players TF2 or not ask themselves most about the game; "How can I get better?" As many have asked this question before, many have also answered it. In all of my experiences on the internet I have yet to stumble upon anything that answers this question better then Chance's Quake Bible . Even if Quake wasn't such a huge part of TF2's history it would still be a very valuable resource to discover how you can succeed in any game. Chance lists many useful tips which can help with your success in any game from dota to SC2 to TF2.I shall go over one of the signifacant points, practice, right now.

Practice is the main subject of improving. Be it with a team or by yourself, practice is what will make you better as an individual player. There are many ways to practice in TF2, the trick is finding which ways work for you. The best kind of practice I'm sure in most people's opinions is practice with a team. Of course the best way to be the best 6v6 player is by actually playing 6v6. However if you feel like you are missing certain parts of your play, there are places where you can get specialized practice for your needs. Need an edge in 1v1 skill? Finding your airshots a little rusty? Try a little MGE mod. Feel like your jumps need work? Hop into a jump map server. Feel like you need to just work on your aim and game sense a bit? Check out some DM mod servers. Feel like improving your team play and positioning? Watch some recorded demos. As you can see there are many resources available for players of any class. Remember, it's not HOW MUCH you practice, but HOW you practice.
