Conor "Bulow" is an Irish Highlander player, most recently playing for the ETF2L team itsallgood.

Highlander[edit]

Unlike many other TF2 players, Bulow did not play 6v6 before Highlander. Bulow started playing competitively in 2012 and entered UGC Highlander Season 6. A few weeks later, ETF2L Highlander Season 2 started and he was able keep his team in form to compete in subsequent seasons.

Premiership[edit]

With decent results in ETF2L Division 2 and UGC Platinum, Bulow decided to play a few seasons of 6v6. In late 2013 he and his team went on and played their first season in the ETF2L Premiership division. He, as a main caller, managed to lead the team to third place despite having one of the worst stats recorded in that season.

When Season 6 came around he stopped playing in UGC and focussed all his efforts on winning ETF2L. At the start he made a clear goal of repeating or besting his past results, and set up a strict scrimming schedule. He and his team would spend several hours preparing for each match, writing down reviews and watching replays of other matches.

This paid off, he and his team only dropped 4 points in the entire season, granting a direct spot in the Grand Finals of that season.

Bulow’s hands were so sweaty he could barely keep hold of the mouse, surely this time there would be no specious reasoning to come between him and the prize? There was only one man he feared, his countryman, but he was sure that simply jumping in from 6v6 semi-retirement he’d been schooled by the Highlander pros. He licked his lips nervously, his mouth suddenly dry as the first graph scrolled into view…

His team fell short against a stronger Highpander team, who had the ability to prepare for the match in advance. Bulow consequently decided to take a break from competitive play, later returning in 2016 to briefly play for itsallgood.
