I'm a longtime TF2 player, I first started playing the game way back in 2009 on the Xbox 360 and got the Steam version a year later. So I've been here for almost all of the highs and lows of TF2 throughout the years; the introduction of the Mannconomy, the game going Free To Play, MvM being launched, the Meet Your Match update, the final real content update (Jungle Inferno), the Crate Depression, and of course the bot infestation of recent years and the #SaveTF2 and #FixTF2 campaigns that made Valve (finally!!) take care of it. (If any newer players are curious what the game was like back in the old days by the way, feel free to browse through the hundreds of screenshots I've been uploading since 2011!)
And I'm still playing now, because even after all this time, there's no other game like TF2.

My main class has always been Medic, though I also play a lot of Soldier and Engineer, and fair amounts of Heavy, Demo and Pyro. I like Scout but I'm not very good at it. I dabble in Spy occasionally. Sniper doesn't interest me much. In my opinion he feels very out of place in this game to be honest, and TF2 would be ten times better without this class. Oh well.

I've gathered quite a collection of items over the years. The ones I'm most pleased with are:

* craft number #89 Eureka Effect (15-12-2011)
* Unusual Haunted Ghosts Blighted Beak (31-12-2014)
* Unusual Harvest Moon Modest Pile of Hat (26-9-2021)
* Strange Unusual Neon-ween Medi Gun (31-10-2023)
* Strange Unusual Haunted Ghosts Modest Pile of Hat (10-5-2024)
* Strange Collector's Widowmaker (17-8-2024)
* Strange Original (spelled) (30-9-2025)

I really like Strange items. I have a Strange version of pretty much every weapon I use (including the Kritzkrieg, Gunslinger and Original), as well as of cosmetics for every class, usually with some Strange Parts attached. I've displayed some items and their Strange counts in the showcases and info box below for people that also like numbers.

Since May of 2022 I've started recording my games and uploading some of them to my YouTube channel. It's mostly for myself so I can always watch them again without having to keep all the video files around on my hard drive, so there's no commentary or fancy editing, but feel free to watch if you find it entertaining. Link is at the top.

Finally, a high five for the friendly team players that can sometimes still be found in this game full of hackers, memers, little kids, idiots, trolls, ragers, blatant psychopaths and other unpleasant individuals. You are appreciated.

And if you like my profile or enjoyed playing with me, feel free to send me a friend request. This game is definitely better when played together with others! Scammers don't bother though, don't waste my time and your own. As a precaution I don't accept friend invites from people with a private profile or inventory.
