 Invasion Interviews: The Ronin | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0:32:08

Interviewers: Agro and Ruskeydoo A few notable quotes from The Ronin: “That’s kinda what I do. I try to push people’s buttons” “There’s still value at having that humility within yourself… it keeps your motives in check and your priorities.” “I see a lot of people expecting a lot of stuff that we don’t have… that’s the TF2 community right there” “…dude, you’re fired – you leaked this” All our Invasion Interviews took place as much as a month before the update.  As such some of the answers given were speculative in nature.

 KritzKast #343: Roadhog and Junkrat | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 1:04:01

TF2 has an update, just not the one we were hoping for. Speaking of which, there’s stuff we will not be talking about, and we’re not going to talk about why we’re not. Well, Agro may but there’s no helping some people. Valve say what they’re up to; so it’s okay for them but not us, eh? Some games never die, they just get made into board games, like Portal. Overwatch has more new heroes – Roadhog and Junkrat. Lastly, the Bottom Frag website is kinda born yet. idk, this bit may have been edited out.

We say live. It’s recorded Live. That’s kinda the same thing right? Agro and Tempest spend the weekend at Insomnia 55, the UK’s biggest Lan and Gaming Festival. Not only that, but the home of the only International TF2 Event. Teams Ascent & froyotech came over from the states to show their prowess in thew ring of honor against the Euro might of nerdRage.tf2 and Reason Gaming. I won’t spoil it for you. But I will say that you can watch all of the games as they were streamed from teamfotress.tv. We had a blast and hopefully conveyed that as we talk about the event, the tournament itself and all the people we bumped into over the weekend. We didn’t talk just about I55. Tempest got to say his bit on Pass Time. Lets say its not good. But we also chat about Trade ups and how that will effect the contracts and how we look at them. Plus all of the other weird and game warping bugs that they solved this week.

Secreted away in the PASS time map is a darkened room. Imgurian DaveTB and a “tf2g dude” have shed some light, literally on what the room holds. The 2015 Saxxys have been announced. Time to get started on your SFM entries. Lastly there’s been a rash of new weapon skins, as showcased on this facepunch thread. Make sure you do your bit by upvoting the good ones on the workshop.

Changes to TF2, EVL Battle Royale on the horizon and Hackers being put out of business. Just some of the things we are going to talk about this week…..wha? you want more. Well how about we tell you the astronomically small odds that you’ll open the “Perfect” weapon from a case. Still not enough? How about we let you in on a little info about the next TF2 Comic? Really that’s got to be enough TF2 to keep you satisified. Right. What about this…a fully automated, to scale, level 1 sentry…that is actually….wait for it….A PC CASE!!! FINE! Then have a comic based on Overwatch……or is it? Oh…and don’t forget our video of the week.

 KritzKast #334: Heavy is Still Alive | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 1:33:05

So much content, where do we start? In TF2 land there’s been a bevy of updates, mostly relating to Gun Mettle but also with a few things like new the ETF2L 6v6 Season 21 tournament medals, and Hammer fixes. YM runs a Strawpoll to see what redditors think should happen to the community maps after the event. Tip of the Hats announces their 2015 event date with a countdown timer on the site. Insomnia 55 is to be held in a tent for the TF2 guys this year. If your’e going look for Tempest and Agro, we’ll be lurking near the stage, smelling faintly of happiness. Blizzard do a Q&A on reddit about Soldier 76. Special shout out to Sanc Tuary and Stevoisiak for sending in emails recently. Stevoisiak even takes the prestigious PotW title both for his short Heavy is Still Alive after which this week’s show is titled, but also for his excellent question.
