Hey,
First post on the forums (I think). Been playing TF2 for quite some time (got my first day as soldier coming up ) and I was just wondering if there's any good sites that covers competitive TF2. And are there games you can watch live (like hltv) or is demos the only option?

Cya on the server

You're a day too late.
Yesterday was one of the most important matches in this etf2l season. It was the title deciding match between the current top 2 european TF2 clans.
It was broadcasted live via SourceTV (=hltv) and 2 broadcasting stations as video stream. One of the broadcasters had more than 9000 people watching.

Well, the best place to start looking is always the etf2l, the most important european TF2 league. You can download a lot of demos from there.
http://pwnage.tv/ and http://www.quadv.com/ are the two main TF2 broadcasting stations. They also provide a lot of archived streams.

If u know the exact date u can also watch it live through TF2 ingame, just open ur server list and click spectate, it will list all available souretvs. Most passwords are: tv

Thanks a lot for the responds!

...and you should follow sites like http://www.cadred.org and http://gossip.krus.dk. Both sites announces the top matches and coverage details

Cadred also has probably the most demos available.

www.gotfrag.com focuses on the North American Scene which has some good teams as well (eg Complexity, Pandemic, Sway Gaming, Ocean 6 etc.) and has a large demo-base with NA top matches (you have to create a free account to download them though).

If you like watching Live Matches, I got a hot tip for you Next top match is tomorrow 21:00cet, Trademark Gamers vs Weapons of the Rebelion, another 2 top European clans. Cadred will most likely announce the stv ip and www.pwnage.tv will broadcast it (i prefer pwnage.tv because of the commentary )

You can of course also watch the most epic team EVER, ie SpecialAttack's warteam #1 ( ), loosing epically against a ETF2L Div2 Clan (= very good) tomorrow at 2100cet
