Class Wars Completely Melts My Brain [TF2]

Good ol' class wars, never fails to completely shatter my sanity and leave me begging for the sweet release of death. At least it's pretty fun. I swear this is the last Class Wars video I'm making, people kept asking me to play it again so I figured I'd cap out the trilogy with a finale. Let me know what gamemode you want to see next!

If your cosmetics disappear, touching a resupply cabinet should fix it. Also, I find that crouching usually helps if you roll Spawn Dispenser or Spawn Sentry

[@animatronicmaniac4748]

I've done that before, and it does work sometimes. But other times it doesn't. So whenever the glitch happens, and the resupply cabinet doesn't restore my hats the first time I use it, then I just focus on the game and worry about my hats later. But I did notice that switching your loadouts seems to fix the hats sometimes as well. Although even that doesn't always work

Playing as spy is a literal disasvantage in class wars. In casual, it's never made clear what enemy classes you're fighting unless they show themselves in the spawn exit during setup time. Of course spy will have the element of surprise if he doesn't show himself during setup. But in *this* case, the enemy team already knows what they're fighting. And because of this, it's harder to get the drop on them when they're expecting you 24/7.

[@jerrardaris-sutton7803]

well, and the fact that spys playstyle relys on people distracting others, problem is everyone is trying to get backstabs, so spy is always F tier unless its against engi, only then is it even just a B tier.

The peak class wars moment for me was still the time I rolled Power Play 3 goddamn times in a row. The problem was that it was a Scout vs Engineer round.

Scout Versus Engineer shouldn’t be rollable. That’s the only match up I’d say is impossible. Especially on dustbowl.

dragons fury pyros actually usually out-dps heavies at close range usually because they have to track instead of burst damage which is much easier to get full dps

[@ZorotheGallade]

​@@Spiffyo It speaks to how powerful Engi is if he knows what to expect. Short Circuit takes away from the range and defense utility of the Wrangler but utterly blocks everything a Demo can throw at you, literally. And good positioning and nests covering each other, plus your teammates being able to remove sappers makes it easy to counter spies.

[@yeedog6145]

If you want to kill heavies as pyro the stock flaregun is your best bet since heavies are easy to hit, no damage dropoff and crits with 90 damage when they are on fire

[@Warpzel65]

Shouldnt the scorch be better with similar DPS, messing his aim up and crowd controll potrntial?

[@yeedog6145]

@@Warpzel65 Not really the scorch shot has pretty pitiful damage the heavy can just shrug off, the aim offset only really works on snipers and nobody else and they have access to healing items which they can eat themselves or give to burning teammates. So the flaregun is your way to go since it takes 4 shots with it to kill a full health heavy if the afterburn isn't interrupted between shots.

[@Warpzel65]

@@yeedog6145 As you mentioned the heavies have access to healing items so getting crits while burning will be problematic. You seem to be underestimating scorches damage which isnt that far off from flare guns and the difference is mostly in flares being burst especially because the bounce works on enemies that arent on fire. Also with the messing with aim part i meant a direct flare making heavy bounce up and having to readjust

[@kirbyfreakyt4695]

I remember queueing up for casual dustbowl and joining a Heavy VS Heavy Shotguns only match. You could trade the ability to fight for a healing item or stick to melee, and it was the most hilarious fucking thing ever.
