TFConnect is blazing a trail back like a man flying through the air in a stub-nosed sports car!

Veg-out to a gargantuan, bite-sized 80s’ internet throw-back event. The gnarly agenda includes an interview with Mike Morasky, award-winning composer of TF2’s legendary soundtrack. They also have the most epic server packed to the gills with gaming creators from across the web. Chaos makes a welcome return and there are spotlights showing the best of this community, the TF2 Quiz Show, MvM with Valve Devs, & much more!

The event streams, like totally live, December 7th from 6:30 am Eastern (12:30 CET) on the KritzKast Twitch channel.

Donations are now OPEN on the TFConnect website!

TFConnect has raised over $100,000 for charities including this year’s cause, SpecialEffect. This charity has a profoundly positive impact on quality of life, confidence and rehabilitation of disabled gamers.

Remember what the dinosaur told us, "Teamwork is very important."
