Grant "'''b4nny'''" Vincent is a competitive TF2 player currently playing [[Scout]] for [[Froyotech]], known for playing [[Demoman]] for the ESEA-I teams [[eMazing Gaming]], [[Leviathan Gaming]] and [[High Rollers Gaming]]. He is widely acknowledged to be one of the best Demomen in the game, on par with the European Demoman [[Numlocked]] due to his amazing gamesense and DM. Additionally, his ability to play all classes in [[6v6]] at an Invite level has lead to many calling him the best player in the world.

==Biography==

B4nny grew up in Bellevue, Washington. Before he played TF2, he played competitive Call of Duty 1,2, and 4 in his middle school years. He was also interested in Unreal Tournament, which brought him closer to the arena-style FPS games, like Quake, that TF2 is based on. He has been playing TF2 since it was first released on the Orange Box, having pre-ordered the set in 2007.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ea62tL7TSYg b4nny Interview by Tagg</ref>

==TF2==

===Slaughterhouse Gaming===
B4nny started his TF2 career by playing with Slaughterhouse Gaming, a pub community's [[Open]] team. He played with them for 2 seasons, Season 3 and Season 4 (albeit the team did not have a too consistent roster, and he did not play all the matches). In Season 3, the team barely made Open playoffs (at the time, only 8 teams made the cut) and lost to first-seed Harmonic. In Season 4, the team fared better, ending up at 3rd place in Open playoffs, but it was not enough. The team disbanded shortly after.

===[[Don't Trip]]===
After Slaughterhouse Gaming, b4nny was picked up by his friend tyrone to form the first iteration of what would become one of the longest-living teams in ESEA-TF2 history, Don't Trip. The Season 5 roster was integral in establishing the core of b4nny, tyrone, and mackey that would make up a large part of Don't Trip throughout its 9-season history. Playing alongside now-long-time-friends such as blaze and the aforementioned tyrone and mackey, the team won Open in Season 5.

Afterwards, the team made the jump to Invite, and had to restructure the roster. Blaze and jnkx, the scout pair, left, and the young talent yz50 was brought in alongside raf. The medic, karenbear, left as well, and [[Shade]] was brought in, to help create the core of players that b4nny still plays with today. The team got a sponsor and came into Invite under the banner of eMazing Gaming.

====eMazing Gaming====

b4nny's first foray into invite ended up with him making lan, starting a longtime tradition. The team barely skirted into the 3rd seed with a 10-6 in Season 6 and ended up placing 4th at lan, losing out to fourth-seeded blight.own, beginning a long-time rivalry with fellow lan veteran [[Platinum]]. Despite placing fourth, he was invited to play with the ESEA-East TF2 All-Stars team that season. The team defeated the west team 5-0 with b4nny topfragging for the team.

After Season 6, eMg made one more roster change. They cut scout raf for the next generation of Open champions in the form of [[Ggglygy]]
from Nexzil Gaming. Still under the eMg banner, the team marched on into Season 7 and finished third in the regular season, with a 12-4 record. B4nny's second-consecutive third seed at lan gave him a chance to redeem himself and eMg won Season 7 lan, defeating ComplexityTF2 5-1 on [[Granary]] and Coldfront.

The team made no changes for Season 8 but did not anticipate the perfect season of [[CheckSix Gaming]], again getting the third seed in the regular season, this time with a 9-7 record. B4nny's third consecutive lan appearance ended in a 2-1 defeat in the finals at the hands of CheckSix.

====Prophets ft. Dashner====

In the offseason, the team made some changes, cutting ggglygy for [[cyzer]], yz50 for [[clockwork]] and replacing shade with reptile (on good terms; shade decided to take some seasons off). Just before lan, the sponsorship was rebranded under a personal sponsorship from Dashner: Prophets ft. Dashner. Prophets once again won lan, defeating the first iteration of [[Classic Mixup]] in what would become a long-standing rivalry.

====Quantic Gaming====

Quantic Gaming sponsored the team for Season 10. Reptile left the team, forcing Quantic to replace him with CB. Quantic finally broke the third seed tradition and captured the first seed for lan off a 15-1 record, but lost at lan to Classic Mixup. Shortly afterward,
Shade returned, allowing b4nny to reform the original core of the team that had won S7 lan and combine it with new players that helped foster the S9 win to create an incredibly strong team. Mackey had to leave for a season, however, so they brought in [[Dave__AC]] from the former CheckSix team to complete the roster. The team united with a new sponsor, Leviathan Gaming.

===Leviathan Gaming===

Season 11 repeated what had become a trope of b4nny's invite career at this point: finish third place regular season and go undefeated at lan. Mihaly's Flow, the regular season leaders, were favorites at this lan, but dropping two games to LG and [[Spacewhales]] gave LG the chance to take the trophy away, and that they did. The Leviathan Gaming team are noteworthy in that they were the first team (alongside Classic Mixup) to be sent to Europe as part of the i46 TF2 lan. Dave__AC not available to travel to Europe, mackey stepped back in and re-completed the lan-proven lineup. Both American teams shocked expectations and defeated the Euros, leading to an all-American finals. However, LG ended up losing to Classic Mixup in the grand finals and finished second at i46.

Going back to America for Season 12, the roster saw one change in the leaving of clockwork, prompting the team to bring in hero to replace him, and the return of Dave__AC. This roster once again made lan, finishing second place. Shortly afterwards, b4nny, shade, and cyzer all left LG to form a new super team: bp.

===[[bp]]===

bp formed out of the core that had kept Don't Trip at LAN for seven straight seasons: b4nny, shade, and relatively new blood cyzer. They cherry-picked the best talent they could find, getting [[Taggerung]] from The Chess Club and [[Shrugger]] from Pinball Wizards, as well as lansky from GOIN HEAVY. The team went 16-0 in the regular season before being noticed by High Rollers Gaming and getting sponsored by them for lan.

====High Rollers Gaming====

Rebranded under the HRG tag, b4nny and crew took s13 lan without much competition. The same thing happened in Season 14, with another perfect season and another lan win with the exact same roster. The team, after winning ESEA, was given the American spot at [[i49]], and ended up finishing third after being able to defeat the made-for-lan [[Epsilon|Epsilon eSports]] and the [[TCM]] crew. Once again it rebranded under a TF2 organization - the iT servers, run by klanana.

====iT====

iT, still undefeated in ESEA, went under a ton of roster changes in the offseason. Shade, unable to commit, left, and was replaced by up and coming talent [[indust]] from AG. Tagg and Cyzer left as well, prompting b4nny to switch from Demoman to Scout and pick up xalox from the dead Solace eSports as Demo and rr from The Mad Men on roamer. The roster once again went undefeated in the regular season, but in one of the greatest ESEA finals of all time, Classic Mixup managed to break their winning streak and recapture the trophy.

===[[froyotech]]===

With klanana leaving TF2, the iT sponsorship was lost. b4nny and shade (now returning) decided to rebrand under the team name froyotech, creating something of their own esports organization with a website and all. The team reunited several players b4nny had played with in the past, getting blaze from his Slaughterhouse days on roamer and clockwork from Prophets ft. Dashner, Quantic, and Leviathan on scout. They also pulled in dummy and ruwin on Demo and Pocket respectively to begin the season. However, after Ruwin quit tf2, the scramble was on for a new pocket, and b4nny brought in old teammate lansky to replace him. Now looking like a reunion of bp/HRG/iT, the team went perfect in the regular season, but after a disappointing loss to Mixup in the TFTV Invitational, b4nny swapped with dummy and went back to his old main, Demoman. They won Season 16, but with that win came another trip to Europe for i52. Dummy, finally getting a lan championship and unable to commit to a European trip, left the team and was replaced by breakout Demoman [[duwatna]]. The team started out Season 17 looking strong, but surprisingly b4nny lost his first regular season match in over two years to Exertus eSports (now eLevate TF2). The team made the voyage to Coventry, England, to compete in i52 against the Euros and Australians and surprisingly did not drop a single map, becoming the best TF2 team in the world.

'''AsiaFortress''' is an Asian community website, hosting Team Fortress 2 [[6v6]] events for the Asia region. It is filled with insensitive pricks who do nothing but insult each other's mothers all day and are hostile to new players trying to enter the competitive community. They regular spam lenny face ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) and dongre ヽ༼ຈل͜ຈ༽ﾉ while insulting newbs with words like tryhard and uninstall when newb try their best to improve and using inside circlejerk jokes to assert primate dominance such as "banana bus", "ryan bangbus" and "curry". Their curry is bad and does not taste good, unless you add salt.

If question the pros, they tell u that rage is good for u and only then u can improve. Otherwise u suck mother donkey. However getting players to top of SG scene by telling them to punch sand into 10/10 sand sculpture is not the way and they require nurturing and kind word to let them reach the top. Yes some
people improve by being rage at but others improve by jumping into a pug and sucking while the pros just tahan and tolerate, and the said player will decide on his own whether he wants to improve because he himself (usually) realise he suck, but in the end become pro and airshot u with cum. Dun tell them uninstall and call them pantat nobo when you were there in the first place.

Do this:
1)Make asiafortress academy more regular so no newbies get raged at in veteran pugs.

2)Make mumble COMPULSORY so that newbs can comm and be commed with instead of everyone go lone wolfing CMI. This is why other communities are better.

3)be nice, put on your fake smiles for the good of this stagnant community. The game is dying and not everyone can play it to their fullest potential. Life comes first, people try to put in effort to improve after hours, late nights after work or school. Just cause they never play since 07, you rage. U insult them, they rage or ragequit and are banned. Please. Just try.

Fuck you hirasagi, i know you're much better than me and you beat me 20-11 in mge but that doesn't mean i'm bad, i've been burning my ass off trying to improve and all you say is "DOWN" in caps when you beat me. Fuck off you little scrub, i got a few nice kills on you and just because i'm not in the competitive scene doesn't mean i'm a scrub or pubber, i've pugged before you dumb shit, eat a dick

And fuck you "going merry" or "enel", go watch your retarded anime for losers, you beat me 20-19 but it was close and i bet i surprised your dumb elitist ass by airshotting you and hitting you with good rocket and shotgun shots even though i havent pugged in a long time, i dont care how many hours of soldier you have i managed to kick your ass several times, i bet it hurt that a "pubber" managed to get so many kills off you, so you said "ghey", and beat me 20-11 in the next match because i was worn out and you played gay yourself and killed me by doing nothing because you were better so you got away with it. Well i came close to beating you so get off your fucking high horse you piece of shit scrub and eat a dick

one day i will be the best i already went from 1600 to 1802 mge rating

At least other comp players are nice to me even if i beat them so stop being elitist fucks

Tommy: lai lai
Tommy: i just realised how gay splash is
(You always did you dick, learn to counter it)
TommY's PUG Match
TommY's PUG Match
