What is TF2's Best Weapon Reskin?

[@fishstickonastick-gaming]

The lack of strange weapon reskin cases in TF2 has always seemed like a strange case to me.

[@dona2985]

Hehehhehe strange case

[@spaceman3008]

[@medicindisquise4271]

Most of the reason why not is probably copyright issues. That said, I would absolutely love a "Clearance Mann Co Crate" that carries a few stranges that are either practically unboxable these days (like the Kritzkrieg) and a handful of stranges that don't exist yet. I want a Strange Thermal Thruster, Hot Hand, Sun on a Stick, Sharpened Volcano Fragment, etc... and lets not pretend this is going to take effort or anything.

Fun fact, the holy mackerel is a direct upgrade to Scouts stock melee. This is because if you hit a spy with it and he dead ringers, it doesnt display as a fish kill, and only shows the picture of the fish.

On the topic of Strangeifiers, I think we need a better way to obtain them in general.

IMO it's time for a MvM update that adds new Missions to the game, increases the pool of Australiums available and gets a new sidegrade Mission to Two Cities that drops Strange parts & Chemistry Sets rather than Killstreak Kit Fabricators.

Weapon reskins have always been a strange case to me on one hand if you like how a weapon works but hate how it looks its nice to have another option to choose from. But on the other hand not every reskin is necessarily better that the weapon its replacing, so sometimes theres no point in even using them. Hehehe okay sorry i couldnt resist starting a video like that. Yeah so with weapon reskins becoming sort of a meme on my channel for some reason what better way to end the year than giving a comprehensive break down of all the reskins in the game. And by that i mean just telling you wich ones i think are the best because theres not really much to objectively break down that i have in another video already so what im going to do is im going to through every reskin in the game compare it to counterpart and pick wich version i think is better. At the end ill tell you how many times the reskins won vs the normal versions and that way we can definitively decide wheter weapon reskins are better than stock. As for how im going to handle warpaints and festives and what not im lumping those under the normal weapon category instead of counting them as their own type of reskin. You might think that would tip the balance in favor of the stock weapons significantly but trust me when i say they need all the help the can get. And the last thing before i begin i feel the need to reiterate that this is just my opinion and the points are more for fun instead of being super serious.

Correction at 11:25 ; The game in question was not ARMA, but rather, a free to play shooter game called "Alliance of Valiant Arms" (A.V.A). The black rose was a promotional item that was in TF2 that was also in the game itself (Iirc you got it for free if you also played TF2). The game shut down in June 29, 2018, so as of now, the black rose is essentially a rare item only TF2 veterans kind of have now. The fact its also marked as an untradeable achievement item makes it so newer players will never have a chance to get this. unless they somehow get their hands on a tradeable one, which, god damn good luck.

The Mario 64 menu music gives me PSTD FROM PANNENKOEK2012 and I love it

[@datsnazzyplumber3498]

FINALLY!! A VIDEO RANKING THE RESKINS!! I've always been a sucker for these reskins over the decorations and unusuals simply because of how colorful they are compared to their stock weapons. I've had my eyes on all the readily available ones for years, and I've even gotten myself the Lugermorph and Big Kill when I probably shouldn't have put the time and effort in, and it started from me wanting the Ham and Skull and finding them for cheap on a trading site. Currently I do not own the Batsaber, Black Rose, the bread items, all the sappers, the obvious Saxxy and Memory Maker, and the metal sandvich, which is the one that bums me out the most.

I wonder how this video would change if Blue didn't care about kill tracking 😂

him saying that weapon reskins have always been a strange case for him has always been a strange case to me

[@pizzaisgoodidk7370]

Being able to hear Wheatley again is one of my favorite things about tf2 and it makes it so much better since I recently finished Portal 2

Personally, I would love it if promo reskins got strange variants and strangifiers. Stock could have simple stats like extra ammo added for no random crits(stock scattergun and grenade launcher get two, rocket launcher, sticky launcher and shotgun get one extra shot), medic primary and melee should have alt fire that does burst healing as a start to give some features to the stock. Valve comp could drop strangerifers, killstreaks, even older collection item drops.

[@drivanradosivic1357]

@@dcp0102 You misunderstand, plus I probably explained it poorly so I don't put in a whole ass book in the comments section. My idea for STOCK with more ammo where appropriate is "you load more ammo, but have random crits disabled until you spend it all and do a normal reload" and yes with no random crits servers that might be OP. However, I want only stock to have that function, as well as where appropriate alt fires like for a obvious example of Scattergun, alt fire switches to and from a two shot mode(no random crits, -10% damage and 50% knockback for what is basically mini Force a Nature as a mode, but you can go two shot switch to normal shot and finish them off. or use the Two shot mode for air dodge tactics. you cannot use two shot mode with extra load, same for stock shotgun(which is more of a burst shot)). A good thing that you mentioned Medics wonderful stock medigun. the Medic Meta is such that the crossbow and ubersaw are most effective, think of it like if stock medigun had no uber and other mediguns did, not very good idea right? Medic primaries and melees need some alt fire that does bust healing, simply give syringe guns and crossbow types what is basically a sandvich(medium heath pack, 30 second cooldown, cannot throw it and pick it up to self heal, when at full health can pick up map health pack to replenish the med pack, gives 5% uber on heal) to throw on alt fire, while the melees get a injector syringe in the left hand that is a melee ranged sort of 20% health on hit that could give extra health and when on it's 15 second cooldown, you have a 25 damage plus 33% faster swing speed no random crits melee that on stock bonesaw gives 5% uber as a upside. stock melees could have a simple "third hit does XYZ", "alt fire does a wind up for minicrit damage" or for the Heavy "on kill: 5 seconds of speed boost" plus a new core class passive I call Rushing Slav for the Heavy that makes it so that with his main damage dealer holstered he is 15% faster with his other slots and it stacks with speed boosts as the new base speed on secondary and melee slots.

weapon reskins in tf2 have always seemed like a strange case to me

[@rileyinscoe3558]

"Accurate demoman simulator" That got me pretty good. I love the weapon but I do get your point about the screen blocking. And damn I love the wrangler resting but I don't think I've ever actually seen someone use it before, which I assume is because it's expensive or something. Only thing about it I don't like is that it's just a big box basically, and the default wrangler has a cool solar panel on it so it's not bad

[@flamingscar5263]

idk if you excluded it due to rarity, but what about the saxxy, I mean you included the memory maker which is only slightly more common saxxy would win hands down, turning people to gold is something only shared by the golden pan, and while I'd say the golden pan is better then the saxxy in a bubble, knowing the person killing me is talented and not just rich makes me prefer the saxxy

[@SpearmintSerpent]

Fr, I have met only one person ever with a Saxxy in my time playing TF2 and I am super jealous. I got to hold it once after they died :o

[@Spidehman]

I think the memory maker is included solely because you can have it unlocked for you through achievement servers (the same ones that give you the necro smasher, frontline field recorder, director's vision taunt etc). So a lot more people than you'd expect have access to it. Including me.

[@TheFrankster943]

nahh bro stock over the big kill is crazzyy
