Yes, just make sure you don't watch either of the me vs RemY matches.

Not enough guides.

Damn...you closed the door any hopes I had of instigating e-feuds. . JK. Or am I?????

The psychology of this game is practically taboo. Tutorials hash and rehash most aspects of this game frequently. The psychological aspect is really the foundation of online game play so it is great to see some dialogue regarding that.

I can attest to the reference to adrenaline being a factor in comebacks. I got a little sauced one night and getting beat time after time (was on some bad teams) I got real angry and felt the adrenaline rush. I spent the next 2 games of vctf using the shock rifle to butcher people from any distance. These were people that normally humiliate me. It was pretty surreal. Afterwards I was pretty exhausted and had to cut my night short of playing. Adrenaline allowed me to fine tune my focus to a level that I didn't know existed. Sounds silly but its a true story. Now getting teammates on that level with me.......that would be amazing.

Sometimes even the worst teams can rally up and pull off some pretty unbelievable stuff, and its all from that adrenaline. Keeping your teammates pumped up could quite possibly be the difference between your team, and the opponents. What’s the point in playing on a competitive level if you're not playing to win? Take this a little seriously. A positive attitude works in gaming the same way it does in the real world. Take charge, be loud, and be excited.   This part is so true... and players should really consider taking this advice.

Indeed
