The best party is the one that happens after the normal people have gone home; before school or work has woken and youâre just hanging out with some chums, having fun.


Saturday 6th Jan @ 2:00 PM EST / 20:00 CET sees the TFConnect Afterparty or âKritzKast Creator Showdownâ, for short. Theyâre doing some unrestricted 6s with the likes of FUNKe, berd, LazyPurple, Solid JJ, Solarlight and many more. First pitting two EU teams against each other. Then two North American teams fight to decide who plays with whom in the ultimate form of mad combat: 12v12* ChaosMOD, casted by KritzKast, HamajiNeo and other friends.


Here your donations to the charity SpecialEffect via TFConnect decide both where the match happens and how tough a time these teams have. Donate LIVE to enable temporary effects; see how well Skymin flies in low grav, how long Dollie lives with one hit point, how dangerous Uncle Dane is with critz enabled, as well as more, far worse ideas. Thereâs nothing this mod canât do!**

Hi!
You may know me as either "the events guy", "the invade ctf guy", or the "no alphas" guy. All are accurate.

I joined this community back in 2017 when I first started mapping. Jungle inferno was hot off the press and I was very passionate about creating things for this game I loved. It helped of course that the community was so welcoming and supportive. In 2019/2020 I hit my stride, releasing a bunch of actually good maps and branching into other areas of tf2 content creation such as...
