Tourettes Chessclub, commonly referred to chess, are the current ETF2L highlander champions, and are with their back-to-back titles in ETF2L highlander season 7 and 8, the only team other than SNSD to have won the title more than once.

Although being highly successful, the team is infamous for their ever-changing roster, with the only two players to remain on the roster since the beginning being the founders Scissors and Khazul.

Founding of the team

Much like Colony, the original Tourettes Chessclub roster also consisted primarely of pubbers from the Rocket Blast public servers, with mid-season replacements such as Sprayer and Yoshi being recruited from TF2Lobby.

DeutschLAN Roster

This was a much altered roster that played at the first Highlander-only TF2 LAN, DeutschLAN. The team was named "checkers", and contained current Chessclub members Scissors and Khazul, as well as former members quintosh, Yoshi, BreakfasT_JR and Deox. CeeJæy & Raptor from the team Strong Opinions, as well as Kylähullu, would make up the remaining part of the roster, last mentioned as a last-minute replacement for LANdodger Nik. The team went unbeaten (8-0) in the group stage, winning 26 rounds and dropping only 1, to Fair Enough sponsored by TF2Pickup.net. In the Grand Final they came up against Fair Enough again, winning 2 maps to 0 (Lakeside 4-2, Gullywash 5-1) to take home the trophy and prize.

ETF2L Highlander season 8 roster

This was how the roster looked for the majority of the season, as Scissors left the team(he would eventually return however) shortly before the playoffs, main demo at the start of the season huhy quit TF2 due to availablity issues, and notably former ETF2L anti-cheat admin quintosh getting banned for the season for having leaked confidential information regarding anti-cheat work. Fair Enough sponsored by TF2Pickup.net pyro Lex stood in for Scissors as a merc during the playoffs and finals, blub replaced huhy on the main spot as demo, while ondkaja stepped up from substitute to main soldier in the wake of quintosh' ban. Before the start of the season, atomic, uubers and long-time chess member Sprayer were supposed to continue playing their classes from the previous season where the team had taken home their first ETF2L Premiership championship. Due to a highly controversial kicking of medic Sprayer however, fellow balt uubers decided to leave the team, which in turn prompted his long-time friend -atomic to do the same.

ETF2L Highlander season 7 roster

The roster used in the playoffs and the finals for this season was slightly different from the one above. Engineer b4n4n4man and sniper tracker were highly controversially demoted to substitutes after the main season, according to the team due behavorial and availability issues. For the playoffs and finals, the team moved main demoman quintosh over to the engineer spot, while newly recruited inso took over the sniper spot. This roster would eventually go on to bring home the team their first ETF2L Premiership title.

Although ending with a very satisfying result, this particular roster had many issues over the course of the season, and as a result, changed main heavy no less than 4 times. Main demoman Kaylus was also kicked after having infamously gone AFK during the UGC Platinum Grand Finals, being replaced with quintosh late in the season.

Trivia

• Tourettes Chessclub were briefly known as Chessclub Techniques! during ETF2L highlander season 5, as their heavy, famed Kritzkast host and Team Fortress 2 content creator Ruskeydoo, could not play in a team with a potentially offensive name like "Tourettes Chessclub", having his professional image in mind.
