hey isnt seagull on tf2??

[@getsomezs]

yeah he is. you should watch his old tf2 videos on his youtube channel.

[@Breadiest]

We need a story of Runaway too. They have a pretty epic history now

[@kingor8445]

Seagull actually started playing competitive half life 2 death match then moved to tf2 he played for quite a few teams b4 classic mixup although mix up is probably the most notable. He played demo for them in and then moved to roamer (in the documentary it sounds like he did both at the same time)

[@shottingham]

100% why I loved his beta OW streams. Pharah plays and then Junkrat are the reason why I got so hyped for the release.

[@ClickyCrisp]

His god-like presence in Half Life deserves its own video, not a brief mention

[@Styxz__]

For real tho

[@sHuz_YT]

long live VDuS

[@ducky_]

I don't think you did the tf2 side justice considering how long he had played that game

[@Rifinne]

Im pretty sure that this video is just mostly about how he pushed overwatch and kept it alive and his impact on overwatch in general. It makes sense that they would just gloss over TF2 because overwatch is what seagull is best known for now.

[@getsomezs]

although i do agree with crazpam in that they should have showed seagull's tf2 history more, considering the video's title and how integral tf2 was to seagull's future career. without tf2, there would be no overwatch seagull.

[@Polored1066]

Arvin choi Then it is not the story of Seagull. It is the story of Seagull's involvment with Overwatch.

[@18andAboveV]

Justice?! These people had the audacity to use the OLD AND BETA (and yes, I said B-E-T-A) tf2 trailers as references! They don't care about justice. Not even a single frag video too, just a clip of the announcer saying they won, but they had time to fit 20 minutes of Overwatch gameplay but not tf2. That's a sugar coat for the masses if I've ever seen one. Justice? I don't think so.

[@jaye3]

ikr, the tf2 beta footage doesn't make it any better either...

[@HighDef_Gaming]

I think they mainly wanted to show his more famous presence in OW.

[@jaye3]

@@HighDef_Gaming that's no reason to purposely make tf2 look boring and dated

This video is called the story of seagull and they essentially cut out the initial two chapters of his story, really should've been called "how to gain a following quickly in a new game"

@@HighDef_Gaming no seagull was a beast in tf2. There is no fucking way the would have trouble finding a clip of him wrecking. They got lazy

[@homehome2895]

Seagull had his name in TF2 with the suicidal bomb out of nowhere. because overwatch does not have that fast moving mechanism, a true seagull can't shine bright as himself.

You guys are some of the hardest working channels I've seen in a while. Great content, great overviews of popular gamers. It's hard to think you guys haven't blown up yet. Keep working hard, you're already seeing results.

[@BoundlessLamb]

Seagull inspired so many ow players to take their game to the next level. Its pretty inspirational knowing he even influenced korean players. What a guy, man.

[@R.ach_el]

Watching this video I actually cried. Just brought up a lot of old emotions from OWL. I watched every Fuel game (I'm from the UK so 6am games. not fun) and stage 1-3, it was depressing. But that New York game were we almost won I was so happy just to see that we made progress and might've been able to contend with the big teams. But when it came to the Shanghai game at the start of stage 4 I was so scared to watch because losing felt so possible from my perspective and I didn't want to happen for the life in me. The relief I felt after that game was quite the something. The journey to the playoffs were so scary having to watch London just take a map. THEY WERE 3-0 DOWN, I was so scared. Watching their reactions to the end of that game, was the same screaming call outs and crying when London got that map (my family thought I had problems during OWL, not to mention all the times that I woke them up at stupid times because something happened in game :P). I fell in love with overwatch not by playing the game but by watching seagulls stream, at the time when I got overwatch my friends didn't play it so I had no one really to play with. He always has and always will be my favorite player. I watch every stream he has, if I can't catch it live then I watch the void and even though he doesn't play in OWL anymore I'll still burn blue forever for him. Thank you for the Video :)

[@thomasblack8501]

Being from the UK and being a Dallas fan sucked for the first 3 stages being smashed by any average team and then having to get up hours later to go to college and stuff but sticking with them into stage 4 made it all worth it and watching the last game of the stage before play offs was the best game against la I looked at that game and thought the dream was over and they were just gonna walk all over us but we won and made it to the playoff and from that point I didn’t even care if we lost I was just happy that they were back the old envy who made me love the game

[@TheEmo01]

I'm from germany and had the same problem with the time difference. But I set alarms for every match of Dallas Fuel. I know what you mean with depressing, I went through all of this with Fuel, but no matter what happened, everytime they had a match, I put on my Dallas Fuel jersey and cheered for them. BURN BLUE !

[@JesseJChick]

Awesome video! I work with teamfortresstv and loved that you guys touched on Seagull's early days in TF2 :)

[@diaco423]

INTERNETHULK STORY/MEMORIAL WOULD BE VERY NICE

[@taiyox7977]

El Avatar Rip internethulk

[@Manimal_Official]

I've been a spurs fan, a cowboys fan, a sports fan in general for years, and never have I cared so much about a single player for a team leaving an organization ever. The dude felt like the heart and soul of Dallas fuel and seeing him go was actually heartbreaking, he's an unbelievable talent, and beyond entertaining. I'm sad to see him leave but I'm even happier than I am sad to see his stream succeed like it is now, he will always be our boy.

[@geoffrey8055]

Why don’t seagulls fly over the bay? Because then they would be bagels

[@Stormsong93]

I still remember the first time I tuned into his stream to watch him slay as Genji on the beta. He got me to play a shooter in the PC for the first. Love this man.

[@MattPilkiePilkiewicz]

I used to play competitive TF2 in platinum highlander and 6v6, Seagull was very much the same person. Loveable, dedicated and a great competitor. He's one of those guys that everyone knew on every team just because of how good his soldier was. As a medic, I was always wary of being jumped onto by him.

[@0u7break13]

Is this the seagull that played half life 2 deathmatch? or different guy

Wow i had no idea that he went pro in overwatch. Pretty cool

[@Deletedvirus404]

hes a gamer. wish hl2dm was more popular but its still a cool niche

crazy i use to watch seagull play tf2, now he is big time streamer.

[@paddy1337]

It’s really good to see someone outside of the TF2 community even bringing the game up in this context. TF2 in my eyes has the single best competitive scene out there today. It’s grown a considerable amount from when I first started playing competitively in 2013. With little to no support from Valve whatsoever. Every single LAN that has happened has been 100% community funded. I believe that the game has the potential to be a bigger esport than it currently is. The game has the biggest skill ceiling i’ve ever seen in any game, and the ex TF2 players almost always go on to be top world players in their respective games, that they had quit TF2 for. It’s really sad that it wasn’t covered more here, but I can clearly see why. It’s not as accessible as CSGO, or OW. And, this obviously drives newcomers away. But hopefully, in the near future my favorite game of all time will be further represented in the esports community. But one can only hope.

[@nerotoxen]

Can you imagine being Seagul? Being a kid playing video games, to people doing youtube videos on his gaming career. Nuts. I'm glad he's got his fame, he makes watching OW enjoyable, nice video guys!

[@georgthesecond]

As someone who played and watched competitve tf2 before, it's always nice to see familiar faces on a bigger stage (in this case - Overwatch).

Seagull is not only one of the greatest players in this game, but he's one of the most kindest, coolest, most down to earth, funniest, and yet most serious overwatch player, and just pro player of all time. Love ya bud

Great vid to add to the Story Of series.

He was one of the first people to stream Overwatch when it was only given to select few streamers for promotion. He was always really cool and super responsive in his streams, he replied to a lot of stuff I wrote in his chat as well as everyone else, I like him since then. His popularity skyrocketed as people who wanted to watch Blizzard's new game flocked to him over better known streamers, simply because he was skilled and great at interaction.

[@eaghra1995]

he didnt leave the nest. he returned to the nest.

[@puffin-onehandedgamer1164]

to be fair to the outlaws, the 5 K @ 10:05 was done on purpose, Rawkus moved into the dragon on purpose to regroup with the rest of the team. I remember asking my sister who plays Overwatch and LoL if she watched OWL and she was like "no, I don't really know many of the players there, I know Seagull, that's it".
