How to fight every class in TF2 as MEDIC and WIN!

[@Treggles]

EDIT: 16/03/23 The section has now been unmuted. This comes after a CLEAR and affirmative guideline change from the official channel, “Creator Insider”, (kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJmsqoN3qZKreqM) with this specific quote: “Content using profanity, (moderate or stronger words like “fuck”), after the first 7 seconds will now be eligible for green icons, unless used repetitively throughout.” In alignment with KZbin's policies on swearing and monetisation, I've unfortunately had to mute a portion of the video near the beginning. Please know this was never my creative intention, but a necessary change. For clarity, the line was "how to quickly remember every line from Meet the Medic and repeat them ad nauseum in casual servers until you get kicked and ultimately banned" with a teammate swearing in the background.

[@Scratchy__The_cat]

Bro KZbin has rules where a video that has continued swearing, it would be age regulated, right? BUT, there's a story where ONE swear age regulated a video, even though it was hardly noticeable too -_- (it was about the history of speedrunners)

What I love about playing Medic is that if you see another Medic and neither of your teams are paying particularly close attention, most of the time the switch just flips for both of you at once from healing to violence. Whenever I see another Medic, it's usually just on-sight violence.

[@missycat7598]

RIGHT When you see another medic, it’s ON SIGHT as long as neither of you are with your team. It’s very funny but also incredibly frustrating when you lose a medic fight and have to remind yourself not to go hunting the other medic down.

As a medic main (with over 5k hours) let me just say to anyone using this guide that while the playstyle of “don’t die no matter what, even if it’s boring” is absolutely an integral part of learning how to play medic properly, and is absolutely the right idea to perform the best for everyone, but after honing that, don’t feel like you’re obligated to stay stuck with this “scaredy cat who at least gets the job done” playstyle. Once you know what you’re doing, you can start to do more ballsy things. Following your current heal target past your team line for a bit. Going in for a kill on a weakened enemy. Being a more active part of the front line that assists with their own bit of damage on top of the healing. Using an escape uber to fight your adversary instead of just running away. That kinda stuff. Yeah, none of it’s incredibly smart, but even just a little more risk adds a lot more fun to medic, and helps break the staleness of his meta.

[@TF2CrunchyFrog]

And competittive Medics, when separated from their team, have on occasion used their Übercharge to not flee but defend the capture point until their team had moved back in. KnoxXx back in the 2010s managed to stab _two_ enemy Soldiers to death in a 6v6 match while Übercharged, thereby constantly stretching out his invulnerability time, and defended mid on cp_Granary while weaving in and out between the containers, baiting the Soldiers until they ran out of rockets and then tried to get close to him with shotgun. Big mistake for them. But KnoxXx used to be one of the god-tier Medics before he went over to Overwatch competitive scene (back in the Beta and early days of Overwatch 1, when Blizzard actively aggresively lured TF2 KZbinrs and TF2 comp players away and over to OW. (Until the Overwatch League switched from teams of skilled players who competed for a prize money, to an e-sports contract model where the OWL players were actively employed and paid by Blizzard but had to spend x months/year at a training camp and follow their contract to play tournaments. That's when many of the older comp players were sorted out (and replaced with teenage S-Koreans) and went back to streaming.

[@rq96]

The risk/reward is a fine line to toe upon, especially as Medic, but with items like Ubersaw which reward you for being aggressive and engaging in fights (or at least a sneaky stab and run), it can take your Medic gameplay to the next level. No wonder the Ubersaw is meta, there’s so much potential to be found within it

[@anthonyradford8605]

Something I want to add as a Scout player when it comes to dealing with Medics is that we KNOW you do more melee damage than we do, and we’re constantly afraid of that random crit melee (if enabled). A good scout will NOT engage you in a melee 1v1. If he runs out of shotgun shots, we swap to pistol. If we can’t do that, we will reload. Our movement beats yours, and a good scout can fend off a medic long enough to get his shots back.

[@DedicatedTryhard]

The only time I’ve seen scout pull out his melee against me is when I’m playing gunspy….

[@chitosetakaki9385]

Honestly probably the best way to survive a heavy is to just surf using his bullets if you don't know how it's simple just jump and his bullets may push you to the direction he's shooting this can be useful but also a risk but again would you rather fight a near impossible fight with a heavy or rather have a gamble and hope to survive

[@lucasinazumai9873]

Done that many times. Some cases, it works and I get to live and heal my team. Other times, I get launched into a wall and pinned until I'm dead. It also helps that the further the Heavy pushes you, the less damage you'd take thanks to damage falloff.

[@silverdededestruction2197]

iirc holding shift while jumping helps tremendously since crouching makes you more susceptible to knockback, meaning that you can surf your way out of danger

[@lyell63]

Great video, some great points. I have a couple of additional tips as a HL medic. - Dropping is sometimes the better option, if your uber is not going to achieve anything or you are behind enemy lines and will probably die right after the uber expires just drop it and take the extra 8-10 seconds of uber building rather than waste the 8 seconds and then the respawn queue. - Explosive surfing is not always viable, competent soldiers will try to either sync 2 rockets or aim to your body making surfing impossible. Try to surf away from walls to make their airshots harder. - Don't jump when crossing sightlines and kill the beam before. If possible don't test the sniper aim by crossing if it is not necessary. - Sometimes being the target is great. I remember playing a HL pug on a KOTH map and being 7vs5 (us being 5) at overtime (us losing). Obviously I cannot heal enough in this situation to upset the player difference so the best option I thought of was to run to their side of the map and get their attention, I rather distract 3 of their team and have them kill me and even the playing field for some seconds. Obviously it is a desperation play but it is another option you have. -Dispenser armour: while inside a dispenser you can survive insane amounts of damage you have to keep in mind that you cannot surf damage and get out of trouble as easily. - Against spies, play like and owl, turning around every 2-3 seconds (360º). Also--> Turn around 360º before arrowing your teamates, you get sooo many spies like this. - Don't be afraid to drop teamates to keep your uber, just do it sparingly and with good judgment. - This is for HL specially but if your uber target runs out of ammo just drop him out of the uber and use it on someone else, heal the people that will make a difference, not the demoman that is out of ammo because demo is very important class. Use your brain. Also in general (depends of the situation) ubering 2 players can put a lot more pressure on the enemy team than just one (some great combinations are demo/scout, demo/pyro, demo/heavy/scout) but 1 person ubers have the advantage of being a lot longer. - Use your scout speed to roll out and runaway. Crit heal everyone you can as they roll out (another benefit of constantly turning around) - In general there has to be a big skill gap between the medic and the other class for the medic to win, even a competent revolver spy will destroy you in a 1vs1. Your best option is to either run away surfing damage, surfing melee hits... And the most important thing: dying as medic is inevitable, everyone is out to get you. What is absolutely crucial is for you to think of what you did wrong to die there and learn from it.

[@TF2CrunchyFrog]

"Crit heal everyone you can as they roll out" I think you meant "Overheal everyone as they roll out". Crit-heals is a different game mechanic.(*) But yes, in competitive TF2 there's a whole hierarchy on which classes to overheal in which sequence. In 6v6 comp, obviously the Demoman and then the roamers have priority, and explosive classes who are at risk from self-damage in general. (*) When an injured teammate has taken no further damage for 10 seconds, the healing rate of your medigun beam will go way up so you fill them up in record time. So it's useful when non-Medic players know about that game mechanic, so that they will retreat to safely and then wait their turn while you heal higher-priority targets (like people suffering from Afterburn and about to die, or frontline fighters actively under enemy fire). Once you have time and if they havent grabbed a medkit by then, you can heal the people in the "waiting queue" to 100% in mere seconds.

For the pyro section, do remember that they are not limited to close ranged combat. If you try to run away from one, or if you try to engage them from a distance with the crossbow, be mindful that they might pull out a flare gun. The regular one can kill a medic in two clean shots if they can't heal before the afterburn does them away

[@Brass319]

Well, it kinda skips over the fact that the amputator is also a viable melee and gives you different options and problems when dealing with certain classes. Can't really blame 'em much though, and other than that yeah this video is great. Most of the time when you're using the amputator it's because you don't have a competent engineer on your team or because you're playing farther from your team/some other weird strategy. The different problems largely just boils down to having a slightly worse melee weapon and giving an audio cue to the enemy scout of exactly when you are unable to fight back and likely at low health, though the extra chip damage you and your teammates can afford to take gives more leeway.

[@mangckyatmamon]

ALSO against spies, turn on your "Damaged team mates automatically call out for medic" tickbox in your Advanced options. It kinda works like the respawn silhouettes and you can kind of 'feel' if the player is a spy or not. Barring that, you could use it to prefire your xbow at corners.

[@SinkkingTurrtle]

One tip for fighting spies as medic I got from theory Y, turn your automatic medic callouts up to like 95 percent. It helps you notice all your team members easier, but disguised spies call out for health too so it can often give you x ray vision that lets you notice a "teammate" sitting in a corner for no reason or even just helps draw your attention to gamers you wouldn't have noticed were there in the first place and more easily notice a spy before they backstab you.

my best advice for fighting a spy as ANY other class with melee is: act like a spy. they don't see it coming. all they are trying to do is get a trickstab off and trickstabs don't work ass well when its a spy v spy, so, if you position yourself like you're playing spy and try to go for "trickstabs" the spy wont be able to comprehend it.

[@ZackAttackHall]

So about jumping around While it is a important movement tool, it’s important not to spam it, especially when vs scouts and snipers For snipers, jumping creates a relatively simple movement trajectory, leading to a easy shot. Its still may be worth jumping when very close to a snipers, like almost melee range, to help avoid the quick scope. Just make sure to jump away from where he’s aiming, or you might fall into his crosshair For scouts you definitely shouldn’t jump when hes close, Its a similar issue to sniper, being jump spammy will lead to a scout just running into your air-born booty and meat-shotting you. For scouts in particular, when your surrounded by teammates and you just need to survive the life trade attempt, I personally recommend NOT LOOKING AT HIM, keep him at 90 degrees from your pov and spamming your W/S keys or similar movement. For some reason this completely brain melts a lot of scouts and makes them miss what would normally be easy shots for them As for explosives classes, jump spamming is still a bad idea, you need to time the jump to get a good surf, otherwise if your hit on the way down you can get tiny knock-up that leads to a very easy follow up. Heavy is the only class I would actually recommend bhopping for, but only to run away. Crouch jump spamming while running away will cause more knockback so you could get away faster. TLDR: jumping is a very important movement tool that needs to be used with good timing, otherwise its detrimental.

[@noahzahm9860]

Agreed, jumping with Medic should be treated like rocket jumping or any other movement option in TF2. There is a correct timing and situation to surf, it just depends on the situation.

[@Yatsuzume]

Another thing with pyros is that some are really panicky or airblast-happy, and I've made a surprising amount of escapes against pyros in pubs by approaching them very aggressively with my melee and then surfing on their "instinctual" airblast back to my team. Of course this strategy isn't going to work against all (or even most) pyros, especially if they are good players or use shotguns/flare gun, but in some games this gambit has been a life saver.

This is a very good video. Many useful tips and good editing. But I just have one thing to say: I don't understand medics taunting after some kills. I know they do it when feel out of danger, but even so: taunting makes you vulnerable because you are standing still, makes you lose your position because your team might not wait for you or move around a lot, makes you waste time you could be using to heal teamates or build uber, etc. So maybe a question would be: *Why do you do it?* or *When do you feel it is safe to do it?* Because I personally never taunt after getting kills as medic.

10:40 just before the rocket connects, you hear a regal-sounding man yell “JUDGEMENT!”

[@highmedic2351]

“Only healer in the game.” Fun fact: Every class in the game either has a weapon or an item and/or a mechanic that allows them to either heal themselves, a teammate, or both. Also, a Medic should never put themselves out of position to try and get frags. Just stick with your team and heal.

[@Treggles]

This is all relative. No class comes close to the amount of healing Medic can provide in a round. I made a joke about how Engineer's dispenser can just barely also be called a healer (while also making fun of comments like this), so it's pretty clear that the other classes which provide healing are no where near the level of being called a healer. I never suggested a Medic should be "out of position" to get a frag. I made it clear it can be a viable option to carefully chase a retreating, low health enemy for a quick pick. Did you even watch the video?

[@nade1078]

fun fact: as a demo and medic main i can tell that all demos share a single chromosome and never learn when a medic violently approaches them while trying to kill him with a pipe. a thing that works on 80% of the demos is to go towards him in 45° angle... for example to the right, when you know he's gonna shoot soon switch to left, and rince and repeat. you'll know when to shoot by the "rythm" his grenade launcher does when firing a thing to note that this usually works only when you're close enough to the demo to cause a panic attack, which is not that close as you might think while i'm at it, a tip against a heavy: never fight him, and always jump when running away. the damage he deals pushes you even more forward (like... away from him), making you go fast enough that he only deals 100dmg to you before you get to his chip 3 dmg minigun range

[@mattburrowes]

My advice for spy is, if you suspect or know a spy is in the area, find the nearest wall and put your back to it, doing this causes many spies to stab you wherever is closest to your back, use this to your advantage and use your high melee damage output. Spies get extremely confident and cocky at times, ESPECIALLY when they come across medics. So they will be confident they can facestab you to death. And if you find an inwards corner, stand in it. Sometimes the backstabs hitbox slips by your sides and hits the back. Corners will negate that. And if he is unaware you are there (For example heading towards another person on your team for a backstab) Hit him with your melee.

amazing job for a first video! genuinely thought i was watching uncle dane

1:54 Seeing this man pop kritz on a heavy when there’s a demo _right there_ is oddly upsetting.

[@zecora4241]

I like snipers, the battles you can have with the crossbow vs snipers are way too fun and the fear he brings to the table (Medic Main) ❤

[@ZanderDS]

Instructions unclear, went heavy and did more healing than the medic

[@TheTowerOfGray]

Syringes are actually hilariously good at destroying engie's buildings due to them slowly traveling in curved trajectory. If the sentry is around the corner, really far away or higher than your position it is fucked (as long as engineer himself isn't there or isn't patient enough).

21:21 was so out of pocket lmao. I love this video though. It good

[@fave61]

I play battle medic a lot and the needle gun (or the other primaries) do a lot of damage when the needles connect, usually strafing or shooting people that run straight at you can kill a class effectively, the lowest damage you can do with those is 5, but even then that chip damage adds up well when you hit all 40 shots, up close you can kill a soldier and take more than half the health of a heavy when they all connect, I also use quick fix as well because that quick healing can out damage most sources and be a really good escape tool, unless you get random crit, then you're screwed.

[@jjjenwade1120]

I'm glad this video isn't strictly the usual "if you get into any even lukewarm water, you are the absolute worst medic this world has ever and will see" and realizes that things can and do happen that no 40 unusual medic main can position themselves for anywhere other than spawn

[@flibbernodgets7018]

On the subject of staying alive, I was trying to get my wife to play TF2. FPS is not her thing, but she's really good at healing/support in MOBAs and MMOs so naturally she goes for the medic. She went an entire round without dying. Had several good ubers. Knew spies existed but had no idea how or when to spy check. Sheerly through paranoia and the skills she already had from other games she got over 9000 healing in a single life, and that remains the record on my account today. I can't beat it even when I try.

this helped a lot, thank you!!!
