Simple/stupid mistakes you know you should never make (but still do) - Games

-Using the Atomizer's triple jump way too much. -Uncloaking either too close to a guy or letting myself get seen while uncloaking -Accepting trades with retarded kids that you can't understand knowing they'll probably have shit for items.

Always missing every single revenge crit. I get so careful with them I seem to miss them all unless the enemy walks in a straight and predictable line. The time I had 28 revenge crits, miss 3 and get mowed down by the Heavy I was chasing....:v:

Heavy-induced tunnel vision. I notice this in tons of other people too, where no matter how loud/clearly/firmly you speak into the microphone to tell your heavy to turn around they sit there shooting at the same shit only to get backstabbed or have no situational awareness of the soldier on the balcony killing them and their medic. I'm trying really hard to have better situational awareness with everyone and I'm sure that people that have ever spectated my cam while I'm playing medic think I'm spazzing the fuck out with my random turns and spins. Playing medic is like being in a goddamn ballet, I swear. Pliez! Jetez! Un plus fois temp, s'il vous plaît!

- As a Medic, checking for spies after overhealing everyone - As a Pyro, using my shotgun at melee range

backpedal into an enemy spy.

Holding on to an Übercharge for far too long before getting killed. It just keeps happening.

[QUOTE=Jack DeRipper;32262544]that's why my "explode" is P, much much safer[/QUOTE] Why do so many people bind explode or kill to P? I do the same thing. Also, I need to stop checking my backpack and doing crafting in the final minutes of play...

Start trading in the middle of combat.

Closing distance on a Sniper despite knowing his melee will crit and will have a 3 meter range is a mistake I always make.

Failing a backstab, swap to revolver, forgot to reload since last encounter. I've got that habit of disguising straight away after killing someone, so my revolver never finishes it's reload animation.

Being the salvador medic I am, I get to heal enemy spies TONS of times by utter accident. Especifically in the middle of a huge fight. I tend to spy check people when it's a calm environment. I play in a server with the "pro-player fever" (Portugal always had this in just about every sport anyway) so the [I]average[/I] player skill level there is above-decent, on stock maps and some customs used in tournaments. Sometimes I'm put up against excellent teams. [sp]While my team mates don't know how to push with a Kritzkrieg/Uber or how to defend a point in Granary.[/sp] And I'm not good at surviving anyway. v:v:v I still manage to save as many team mates as I can. It just REALLY pisses me off when they won't listen to my pleas of help when there's a spy right behind [del]me[/del] us and they just won't listen even if there are no enemies oncoming. [B]JESUS CHRIST JUST TURN AROUND AND SHOOT 2 ROCKETS AT HIM OR MOW HIM DOWN WITH SASHA OR SOMETHING, THE SPY ONLY HAS 125 HP YOU DUMBFUCK[/B] [B]AND THE MEDIC ISN'T NECESSARILY THE BEST CLASS WHEN IT COMES TO COUNTER, WELL, ANYTHING, ESPECIALLY WHEN HE'S PUT UP WITH GOOD SPIES. [/B] That felt good.

Always missing headshots when my rifle is fully charged up.

Even after 2300 hours clocked in, I still have the tendency to deactivate my Dead Ringer RIGHT after it's been activated by an enemy shot. It's not like I do it on purpose, rather it's out of instinct. When I get hit my brain immediately thinks ACTIVATE DEAD RINGER and I immediately click it, only to forget it activates automatically and I just basically wasted my 8 seconds of invincibility.

"Maybe if I don't look at him he'll stop shooting, let me escape... and offer me cookies and milk next time we meet" and as Medic, paying more attention to your healing target's carnage than the surroundings and your back

Charging at Jarate-covered Pyros and Soldiers with the Bushwacka

Thinking as a Scout: HEY, CHARGIN' THIS HEAVY WITH ADDED MEDIC IS A PR0 IDEA! Every time... But it's getting better as I play more though and my general skill level is increasing :v:

I always forget about the arc of the Syringe gun.

I sometimes uncloak from my feign death with the Dead Ringer way too early than uncloaking from a safe spot

Failing to backstab, switch to sapper swithching to revolver when im trying to stab-n-sap Jarating people every time its ready, and never have jarate ready for that spy

Just did this not an hour ago... Get frightened by a rushing pyro and spam stickies at my own feet, only to get trapped in a corner and forced to blow myself and that burning bastard to hell...

Although maybe not that type of suicide.

Attempting to use the bots to get more practice as spy. Those fuckers cheat I swear.

[QUOTE=UberMunchkin;32268224]Rocket jumping to take out a sentry nest while being Ubered. It only works rarely.[/QUOTE] Well, yeah. I've seen people do this before, they get pushed back by the sentry, go out of range of the Medic, and die.

or as any class: jump in the range of a sentry and get stuck in a corner.

Charging into the sawblades on Sawmill. getting anywhere near a pyro on the bridge on double cross. keeping the gate open on attacking stage 2 on dustbowl. rocket jumping back up onto my battlements on 2 fort only to get a sniper shoot my low health ass.

over spy checking and wasting time while we should be doing something about the control points.

Trying to stomp someone with the Mantreads and then dying.

Forgetting to crouch jump when rocket jumping.

Playing Pyro. I'm so laggy that I'm better off goomba stomping than using the flamethrower, because my range is half of what it could be. :(
