For the third consecutive year, KritzKast presents ÜBERFEST LAN! This year it's not just the players who'll be celebrating! Viewers at home (or wherever you enjoy top-tier European 6s esports) will have cause for merriment! Anyone who tunes in and watches a few hours of the event live stream will receive an exclusive in-game viewer medal!
The goodies don't stop there! In-person players, supporters and top teams win unique medals, and first place will receive a massive trophy created by Arkan, based on a design by David, the winner of May's community competition.
We hope you visit Germany's summer sun for beer* and BBQ. Grab your tickets if you'd like to play or just want to stand behind the players who do! Either way we'll see you for the long weekend in Stuttgart, September 10th - 13th 2026!
*Please note: the beer is not free.

Announcing the RGL 6s Newcomer Cup with training intensive by TF2 Coaching Central!
RGL, the largest North American competitive TF2 league, is running their next 6s Newcomer Cup September 4-6! In conjunction, TF2 Coaching Central (TF2CC) will run a four week training intensive, where eligible players with no to minimal competitive experience will be put into teams and assigned a coach to teach them the basics of 6s! Coaches will help players learn the maps and strategies while preparing them for their first competitive event. Similarly to TF2CC's previous Newbie Cup events, players will spend the training period scrimming with teammates and reviewing with their coach before facing off in the cup operated by RGL.
Signups for the training intensive are open now at the TF2CC Discord! The deadline to apply is August 8, 2026. Players are also welcome to sign up and participate in the RGL cup independently without the training program. TF2 Coaching Central will have coaching, learning resources, and pickup games available to the public.
