So i've been a console gamer since like forever.  Around 2011 I learned about CS:S from some CoD (lol) youtuber I used to watch, and that led me to playing CSS and then TF2.  I joined a pub community called IFA and pubbed pretty much all day on their 2fortdesert server.  Eventually I learned that they did Highlander games every Sunday and started playing spy in them a lot.  From there I liked the format and I tried out for their steel HL team by playing in a stacked lobby (lmao).  I didn't get the spot, but at this point I was part of another community called TF2R that was essentially a raffling website, and they were making a team.  I ended up playing spy for their team in S7 HL and we did pretty bad (I think we ended up going 2-6).

After the season I was LFT and my friend Pea told me about a team that was lf a spy, Smitty Werberjoaurlsjfoaurlsdf.  I ended up backing up for that team for about half the season before going back to TF2R for the rest of the season in Steel and we went 2-6 again.

After S8 I went LFT again and after making a team called Skill May Vary that failed, I joined Antihero Collective which included ash, safrix, and gabiduo.  We made playoffs and ended up 11th in Steel Red.

The team kinda died after that season so I ended up "sandbagging" steel with Right to Kill which included rev and market (we (rev) were (was) going to get Max to mainclass in our last match before the admins killed our team, lol) in s10.

Throughout all of this time I had been playing in IFA's 6s pugs a lot and decided to get into it.  I tried out for a team called Evolution Gaming in Steel and that was the first season of sixes I had played, with burning, harvest, xelios, saturn, and biga (apparently chunkey and cloudmaker were on our roster too but I don't remember playing with them ever).  We went 4-4 in that season.

S11 of UGC I ended up making Skill May Vary for real in Silver with digi, safrix, gabiduo, and bear.  We ended up going like 1-7 in silver before the team died.  After that I played on the iron team of another pub community I had "joined", GDL, for like a week because I still wanted to play.  I couldn't actually join their roster though so I had to ring and the other team got pretty pissed about it despite us losing anyway.

After that some people from Evo (mostly myself and harvest) wanted to get into open so we made an open team, Disney Channel Celebrities, with myself, harvest, guru, saturn, periphery (RIP my dude), flashback, and fern.  I had internet problems, though, so I had to relegate myself to backup with guru taking the spot on roamer.  I ended up playing UGC 6s  instead with some of the people from GDL on Cult of Bill Cosby (what a fucking name in hindsight) including rhy, market, bunilla, tmoney, and phone.  We went 6-4 in Steel S13.

During that season I also played Gold HL S12 with Pretty Pretty Princesses.  We were pretty fucking bad though, and the team went 2-6 and then died.

Somewhere along the line (UGC's website is fucking garbage so I can't keep this straight) I rejoined CosB (now mountain dew republic) in S14.  We went 6-4 in Silver of that season.  I also played with them partially during S15 where we ended up getting third place in Gold.

Alongside CosB in sixes I played with Poor Hit Detection in S13 of UGC Gold.  We were okay, I guess, and we ended up going 4-4 in Gold.

After the CosB seasons in UGC though, I thought I was good enough to actually do something in Open, and I ended up trying out for Champagne and Cocaine with muma, saam, super, tipsygnostalgic, and dolphin rider.  We made playoffs and ended up in 10th place.  I got cut for sneakypolarbear after that season (who ended up going to play for another team anyway lol) which put me back on the LFT train.

During the season with Champagne and Cocaine I also played with their HL team, Muma and the Moomoos, in Gold S14 for half the season.  We ended up in second place Gold but the traumatizing effect of actually playing HL somewhat seriously made me quit that gamemode forever (not before trying to LFT for one last season and ending up as a plat backup in S15).

I ended up joining the pseudo-GDL open team for S18, alongside bunilla, phone, moolkey, term, and market.  We went 10-6 and barely missed playoffs in S18 (had some roster issues in that time).  Phone, moolkey, and I kept the team together for S19, adding plinko, row, and lvl4 (for some time) to the roster.  Lvl4 (famous shitposter eee) burnt out somewhere along the line though and we ended up getting forgets on pocket for the rest of the season.  We again went 10-6 in open and barely missed playoffs.

Aliasing Lefty parted ways after S19 and I was LFT IM.  I got picked up by a last-second team forming to save IM somewhat, Bruiser Brigade, alongside couch, throne, smashy, zz, dnk, and ryugawa.  We were originally playing with extracrispy but he left on a two week vision quest before the season started.  dnk left soon after too, which is when we picked up ryugawa.  The team went 5-11 that season and some players quit or left to play in open.

So I ended up on another last-second team for S21, creative juices, with phone, KevinIsPwn, spades, logy, and dnk.  The team didn't do very well and a lot of people left the roster around six weeks in, leaving kevin and I to play a bunch of embarrasing 5v6 matches in order to keep the roster alive for next season.  After those were taken care of I joined chefs in open and made playoffs with them (in 16th seed though lol).

I made another team with Kevin this season, alongside vari, throne, emkay, and smitty.  I'm hoping the team at least mostly sticks around for next season so all of us don't end up having to play on last-second teams again lol.
