>fun? not on my server...

But enough about engineer and sniper

I was playing Pyro and had a very nice match against another Pyro since we both used shotguns. And when we fought each other, we could both tell we were going to bust it out. Felt like a Western.

It's EXTREMELY fun if you use it to harass Trolldiers and Snipers on hightower

Game is still fun but it's weird how little some players manage to want to have fun
'oh it's fun to do x and y' people are whipping out their melees for duels and pyros respond with airblast+flaregun way more often than they do actually fight, kind of unreal how weirdly the game went towards a 'fuck you, got mine' attitude because of matchmaking being a thing

>>712903380
>YOURE NOT FOLLOWING THE ETIQUETTE
dont care

>>712903380
Yes, it's because of matchmaking. All of the game's problems are because of matchmaking.

>>712902773 (OP)
It's VERY fun to piss people off with the scorch shot with 0 effort, especially if it's the sniper that's been targeting me the whole round.

>>712902773 (OP)
How else am I supposed to deal with dead ringer spies since valve gave them afterburn immunity? On top of that it's great at harrassing snipers.

Spies and snipers deserve the scorchshot.

>>712902773 (OP)
Ever used this piece of shit back when the x10 meme servers were a thing?

and they just keep saying that sniper has no counters

>>712902773 (OP)
>people always complain about the weapon being annoying/OP
>rarely see anyone using it

>>712908024
Because it's annoying and OP

Fun? Not on my server.
>Dominates 6 players witch pocket gf

I miss degreaser/flare/axtinguiser pyro
It was never broken

>It's OP
Doesn't crit like the normal flair
>It's annoying
Pushes characters back like a couple inches
Are scorch shot haters retarded or something?

>>712902773 (OP)
>btfos snipers and scouts
How does he do it?

>you see its good if im the only one having fun
go fuck yourself OP.

>>712916256
You dumb fat ugly greasy oily retard. You retarded fucking subhuman smelly shit-groveling ape.

>>712912168
The third degree exists fag

>>712917946
It's funny it's called the 3rd degree because the combined IQ of everyone who uses it is 3.

>>712918049
t. his soldier buttbuddy got smacked with a crit and you died for it

>>712918159
Doesn't work here because I've never seen anybody use this thing outside of retards or people who are enamored with its cool taunt sound.

scorch shit is fine on it's own if you just use for it's exclusive intended use of harassment. it's not very interesting or fun to use nor avoid compared to the other flares, but it gets offset with the user's satisfaction of telling the sniper or whoever else to fuck off so whatever.

however, if you use it for getting phlog crits while hiding until you have them you're admitting to be an actual faggot afraid of playing the game. dying is good.

>>712918241
that's why it works dummy. your ego didn't account for the retard with a glowing triangle on a stick and a lucky crit.

>>712902773 (OP)
>getting triggered by pyro
Anon there's a class with a one click kill mechanic that nobody else has and you're bitching about some mediocre flare gun?

I want to use the back burner but air blasting is too much fun.

>>712919032
>Anon there's a class with a one click kill mechanic that nobody else has
There are two of these. It's just that one is long-range and the other is melee.

>>712902773 (OP)
>while not using scorch
I HATE IT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>while using scorch
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I LOVE IT

>>712918915
You can just switch off the beam for 0.2 seconds to avoid the hit, tard

>>712919116
Soldier and demo too, with a garden and a charged caber.

>>712919116
If you get killed by a spy you just suck or he's a top tier spy
If you get killed by a sniper it's cause sniper is fucking stupid

>>712918915
phlog and scorch shot is fine
it's the medic that ruins the balance
medic always killns the balance with his bullshit ubers and overheals
Fuck medic

>>712919912
A garden can't instakill two classes if they're at full HP, and 5 if they're overhealed (assuming no weapon vulnerability or HP changes).
I think, however, that a fists of steel heavy will always die in one hit, even at max overheal, which is very cool. That is, unless they've eaten a Dalokhs Bar, but I don't think I've ever found myself in that situation. I haven't done the math so maybe I'm wrong.
And caber is a one-time explosion, so it's sadly hardly useful

>Backstab you from behind
Psshh, Nothing personal kid.

>>712919769
pocket medics have their medigun surgically glued up their boyfriend's ass. it's gonna take them a bit more than 0.2 seconds to click away, let alone have the thought of switching to their primary or meele.

>>712919769
>medic player
>doing anything intelligent
all medics know how to do is press m1 and then follow their pocket around like a dog on a leash

>>712902773 (OP)
The Scorch Shit is literally unfair to snipers. Garbage ass weapon.

Name a more inexcusable weapon, you can't

>>712922873
the primary of the class you select by pressing 8 in the selection menu

>>712922873
People were screaming too about pyro combos before they got nerfed, who is this image trying to fool?

>>712922873
You only posted this in hopes of someone posting the edit

>>712919051
I only use back burner because needing to air blast is uncommon.

>Ermmm if you use the scorch shit you are making it so no one on the enemy team has fun which is sociopathic behavior
>Why yes I am a sniper main, how could you tell?

>>712919051
>air blasting is too much fun.
standing around passively waiting to reflect things isn't fun

>>712925016
You know you can shoot between airblasts, right?

Pyro is such a shitty class, just let him have this one thing, bros.

>>712924720
respect the sightlines

>>712902773 (OP)
I could say the same for these. almost every fucking brainlet soldier main uses them because it lets them jump in and out at max overheal and get a medic pick or atleast a guaranteed kill

>>712926362
Play heavy or sniper if you want to counter rocket jumpers or soldiers in general.

>>712922873
A grown ass man made this.

>>712926362
Well yeah that's their intended purpose, retard. Learn to shoot the guy in the air.
