Since I’m locked away from my main account for some days, I tried to create a new team using an alternate Steam account to try goofing around with some builds. After trying 50 times with “meaningful” team names, I’ve got “name already exists” responses each time. Considering the number of players left on the servers, I’m pretty sure all these team names cannot be taken right? Wouldn’t it be that the name parser checks for character name instead of team name?
in the end, I ended up choosing a non-meaningful team name It’s just for goofing around anyway
