Thank you for your horrible sacrifice, Zeno. I hope you're able to recover from this 130 day tragedy

i love how the match number screen perfectly depicts his mental state throughout the challenge, as things are chaotic from match 15-79, yet he seems to still be in an alright yet tainted mental state, but after 80, shit just goes downhill real fast. numbers mean NOTHING anymore, and it's just rapidly deteriorating sanity, until 92, when he finally sees the light at the end of the tunnel, slowly but surely growing as each passing match crawls closer to the promised land of number 100. Once he reaches the promised land, all of his memories of the past 99 matches come flooding in, reminding him of all the turmoil and sheer difficulty he powered through to get to the end. The end wasn't very satisfying though, and neither was the journey. so it was pointless. but even pointless things have meaning. for example, this pointless thing is giving you MAD VIEWS right now, keep it up man!

I remember playing Comp once when it came out. The match did not start until 10 minutes in because people kept leaving and when it started we got rolled and everyone but me disconnected. Beyond infuriating and it is downright awful to see matchmaking still is in this state. Great usage of the Isaac OST tho and I think I spotted a Keychron keyboard, so that's a big W

I put this video on to eat and expected it to be background noise but this was one of the most entertaining TF2 vids I've ever seen. Your commentary is great and this is clearly high effort. It's worth the effort, this is hilarious.

The greatest part of my TF2 Valve comp experience was the moments that made me remember that games are meant to be things to help you pass some time and/or to have fun. TF2 comp can be very fun in every way a game can be fun, just less often. Overall, not the worst thing in the world.

High quality coverage and commitment for the most undeserving game mode you could think of.

I was wondering the other day where this channel went, since you uploaded three videos and dipped like you went to get some menthols from the corner store. Glad you're back, hopefully this suffering wasn't in vain, since at the very least it can serve as a teaching tool for why we do not ever use valve comp when someone asks about it. Great music choices.

a more challenging title would be “I PLAYED 100 Competitive Matches” You’ll never get a game today

I dont think i ever will play valve comp, but this was a journey and Im glad I got to watch you go on it.

Actually had quite a bit of fun with it back when they reworked ranks or whatever, and the mode had something resembling an actual playerbase for a limited period of time. But the insane waiting times nowadays would drive me crazy, and the bizarre way it handles what matches get to start and which don't just suck too much. Even with the cheaters and shit I'd probably play it from time to time if getting more than one completed match a DAY was more likely.

The modern day Dante's Inferno.

I had no idea you still made videos, glad to see an upload.

100/100 review. Great overall. I like the transitions from match to match.

As a daily player of Valve Competitive, i feel pity for you. Also im in the video! amazing!! A note about that [[E]] guy, he is a very good spy - but will lose his marbles if the server contains a person that is gay or something that pisses him off. ALSO: when you crash while joining Valve Competitive, it is because it forces you to play with DirectX 9 (probably due to skins or something????) and with VERY specific settings. I assume your config force DirectX 8 or try to set a high FOV, causing TF2 to die when joining comp (when it tries to switch to DirectX 9)
