>completely disregards engie nest utility
If you're a better Sniper than Spy then ok that's fine
>compfag
ahh, no wonder

More like more boring. Getting 1 kill a minute is not fun.

>completely disregards engie nest utility
sorry couldn't hear you over the 6 stickies
>compfag
????

people like you and assholes who start maining pyro is the reason why I camp as heavy on spawn and taunt everytime i kill a bitch in banana bay

You blow it up, I build it again.
And sweetie, there's this little device called a wrangler, which ensures that I blow a nigger sized hole in the wall.
It blows away those pesky stickies too :)

flyro
its like trolldier but without the skill

the argument is Sniper can do everything Spy can. Yes Demo can take out a nest, but then you're talking about two different classes, where the utility for instantkills AND taking on buildings are both in Spy's kit.
The video is on competitive viability, he's explaining why the meta is the meta and nobody steps outside of it.

There's a reason none of this is viable outside of valve 12v12 playpens, user.

>the utility for instantkills AND taking on buildings are both in Spy's kit
Too bad he's effective at neither of them nor is he a jack of all trades because soldier does it all better.

>compfag

It's viable, but nobody dares to break away from the THE META™ in comp. The same cookie cutter shit over, and over, and over again.

>Not playing casual = comp
lmao

Soldier is Soldier, he's a class all of his own.

>spy main can't deal with the fact his class isn't effective against anyone above the age of 6

You can't possibly imagine ow mad I am about sniper. Every time I get hit by 150+ damage hitscan from across the map, I'm fucking livid. And you know, I can't even blame sniper players because they're just using a tool in the game. I'm just baffled that some designer decided to include a fucking sniper class in the first place. It serves no purpose besides bringing the server's overall fun level down for everyone.

Scout

I'm not talking about 'in game comp.'

Neither am I, shit for brains.

You're kind of assuming the Spy will always reliably be able to perform his intended role. The enemies are going to be keenly aware the moment you do anything, someone might even switch to Pyro, the enemy is going to be on alert for basically the rest of the match. Just that severely limits your options and viability of a Spy at any given time.
Conversely the Sniper suffers none of these problems, is a safe distance away and only really countered by another Sniper. And it's almost guaranteed someone will be playing a Solider or Demo, both of which are better at safely disabling sentry nests.

Blame yourself for playing on valve pubs where nobody knows how to keep a sightline clear.

Then what the fuck ARE you talking about? Fucking community servers? lmao

>be backburner flyro
>drop behind a heavy/medic combo
>if the heavy isn't used to my shenanigans yet, I can actually get them both
GG valve, it sure was smart to give a rocket jump to backburner.

>quickscoped across the map
>quickscoped close-quarters
add a minuscule delay to scoping and have reverse damage fall off to fix this low skill ceiling class

Quit Dota and sometime find myself thinking in going back just to play as him again

>look my meme loadout works on 12 year olds
ok

>die instantly the second any class and i mean any class gets a beat on you
>rely on lag compensation and exploitable literal-box hitboxes to do anything

It's required 0.2 seconds to headshot for years.
>reverse damage fall off on the hardest shots to hit
lmao

Nope, it just works in general. Sorry that you have to consider pyros an actual threat similar to soldier/demo now, you're gonna need to get used to it.

...

Scout

When they fix Pyro's flames, he'll be back to gimmicky trash tier.

Scout

Honestly it's unlikely that they'll do anything more to particle mechanics. They'll just flat out nerf the numbers if necessary.

The Sniper class should be removed from the game.

>play scout
>kill a medic healing a heavy
>run for cover to reload
>come out and kill the heavy

And then when you come across a heavy that shreds you in 0.5 seconds, you subconciously accuse him of hacking.

If the enemy switches to Pyro to Spycheck, then good- one less guy to take the objective. As long as I'm distracting people enough where they are unable to fight, my job is done.
That being said if one side of the field is savvy to my presence, what's stopping me from going somewhere else? Front lines are busy? Go to their base- I'm sure taking out the enemy teleporter would help tremendously

>play a spy in randoms
>so ineffective at my job I seem like I'm someone on the other team who's so ineffective at their job
>perfect blending technique

You guys wouldn't believe what an ubered pyro can do nowadays. That damage, good god.

I quickly learned Pyros are just as valid of an uber target, if not more than, a soldier or demo.

>love the idea of spy but have no experience
>every time I try to learn, the team is already stacking spy and I have to nope out to soldier or someshit

>distract enemy
>spy on my team goes for the backstab

Always funny to see.

fuck...using Lina or Lion's ult to kill them after they try to murder you

Yes. There is nothing more satisfying than a spree as the scout. The rush. The fever, the rage, the feeling of power that turns good men... cruel.

>Sneeze vaguely on enemies back
>Insta kill them
>Get double points for no reason making spy mains think they're good.
Soldier is the most satisfying class due to rocket jumps.

>see spy about to get a backstab on distant enemy
>whip out my pistol/smg and tickle the enemy's back
>he turns around and gibs the spy

>fix Pyro's flames
What do you mean by that?

They're bugged right now and deal damage in an unintended way. Their hitboxes are also huge or something, you can flail around and everything will hit.

MYM was a mistake

>tfw cranking up my sensitivity as a pyro
TROGDOR

>deal damage in an unintended way
Can you show some videos? I have no idea what you're talking about
>you can flail around and everything will hit
Isn't that how flamethrowers are supposed to work?

Medic, because saving the team is more satisfying to me than that.

>playing the less fun 2fort
God damn I miss ctf_well and ctf_sawmill

>tfw no more 24/7 rotation 5cp or koth servers

What the fuck were they thinking? They could have at least added stopwatch too

>Can you show some videos? I have no idea what you're talking about
No, but try tapping someone just a little bit with the flames and you'll find that it does a shitload of damage.

everytime i think of the spy i also always think about how shitty overwatch did it ala sombra, honestly if they just copied and pasted a bit more she might actually be fun

>want to do pyro contract
>team already has like 5 pyros
>don't want to be shitty so play something else instead

You can literally gas the jew with smoke in r6 siege. Spy doesn’t come even close

>try to play some 2fort sniper
>someone sees a sniper rifle in the killfeed
>suddenly enemy team has 4 snipers
>and then my team gets 9 snipers to counter them
>one team just steamrolls the other because they're too busy jerking off over killing the enemy sniper

>all because xX_4NG3R_SN1P3R_Xx is too shitty to play CS:GO and just plays TF2 Sniper all day

You motherfucker. This happens all the time for me.

What, did they bug the damage in a recent patch? When the pyro update launched it seemed fine. The only people I saw complaining were the same people who tried fighting pyros in close quarters and then found it surprising they lost like they should

>seemed fine
the particles were busted and still are. shoot the ground can now apply to the pyro too

I feel like shit when I play as Spy. Half the players I backstab are lagging like hell and I don't feel like I earned the kill.
Personally I think frontline Engineer is the most satisfying class in TF2. Turtle Engineer is boring as hell, but when you constantly have to deal with people trying to blow up your shit it's a great feeling to hold the line and bring your teammates to the front so you never get overran.

Someone's gonna call me a faggot but...

At this point I don't think it's a bug, it's unironically a feature.
Flame particles now calculate damage according to how long a player's hitbox is in contact with at least one flame particle in contrast to the old way of according to the quantity of flame particles that struck the hitbox.
I imagine this was done in order to make the flamethrower's damage more consistent, but without adjusting the firing speed nor the particle velocity to keep the dps in line, it works too well and pyro can now flail wildly via scripts and deal maximum damage to entire groups.

They aren't supposed to work quite like this.

>massive 3 second lag spike
>suddenly Im on fire and health in the red

>Go in for a backstab
>Game freezes for a couple of seconds
>Come back to see a Sniper laughing in the death cam

I still don't get what you're saying. Do you mean Pyro can now shoot the ground and have the flame particles travel along it, effectively starting a minigame of the floor is lava?
The Pyro update fixed the mojo issue from what I saw. How are they busted?

>not dropping enemies like flies
when my minigun crits I get a boner

the knowledge that a natascha heavy will anally rape you on next respawn.

flame particles rise so if you aim at the floor, people get hit multiple times

I like them both, when a play goes according to plan.

She's satisfying to ERP as

I see. The problem is that one unit of ammo, instead of being fired straight like a projectile, now effectively creates a short lasting laser that lasts until the next shot, allowing spin2win to literally be a circle of death.
I'd take this over the broken mojo from before though. How often is spin2win even viable anyways?

faggot

What the fuck is with that, anyway? It's been happening to me since before Jungle Inferno.

This

every single time

...

like 3 people work on this game part time so the code is a fucking mess I could imagine
the fact that it runs at all on modern machines is a marvel

seriously, just bind a rotation script and rush as a pyro
it is incredible, especially with the backburner, because if YOU turn around, THEY get crit

I don't know which is better, killing the medic and dying to his partner but knowing that I can die with the smuggest smile on my face knowing that in the end I won or just killing the combo.

reported

Wow, that's really weird and gross, where on Earth do you find people who would want to do something like that with you and how do they get in contact

They patched that yesterday

thank god

fag

Killing the medic who assumes the heavy will kill the scout, and the medic wastes his 100% uber. Or crit batting a medic.

>playing a Spy with no Spy abilities
This better be a troll because if not then Overwatch fans have somehow proven themselves even stupider than before.
