One kill with every weapon reskin in 15 minutes [TF2]

[Rules below]
Weapon reskins in TF2 have always seemed like a... fun premise for a challenge. I've tried and have seen some TF2 speedruns before, so I thought I'd give my own spin on it a go. This was my first attempt, but if people enjoy it and I get some reasonable competition, I may try it once again to take back the record. Let me know what you think! (And no, I still don't like the weapon reskins meme)

THE RULES:
1 - You must get a kill with every reskin that can deal damage. The exceptions are the following:
The Holy Mackerel
All-class melees, of which you only need to get one
The Lugermorph/HHH Headtaker/Black Rose, which are not needed but can be done in place of the CAPPER/Nessie's Nine Iron/Sharp Dresser if preferred
2 - Queue times are not counted. The timer starts/resumes on the first frame you spawn into a match and pauses on the first frame you disconnect/the match ends. Kills during victory time are not counted.
3 - You may only play on official TF2 Casual servers and casual-like servers such as Uncletopia. Most major modifications to the base game (including gameplay altering plugins, instant respawn, bots, etc) disqualify a server from being used.
4 - While using every possible reskin is in the spirit of the challenge, certain items such as the Iron Curtain and Batsaber may be substituted out for a more easily obtainable option. It is acceptable for the challenge, however you will be met with great scorn.
5 - If you would like to submit a time for the leaderboard, record your run either through a demo or video recording (OBS is the best option) and send it to me either through Discord or by mentioning me on a KZbin upload. Though including a timer is very helpful, due to the complexity of doing so it's not completely necessary (though it can be done easily through video recordings with a program like LiveSplit). Just time the run yourself and I will verify it when I receive the footage.
6 - The intent of this challenge is to be a solo endeavor. You may play in a party with a single friend, however they may not pocket you as Medic. (If they are playing Medic normally without pocketing a single player, that is acceptable)
7 - Normal TF2/speedrun rules apply. Don't cheat, obviously
MISC STUFF I DIDN'T MAKE CLEAR IN THE VIDEO:
- You do not have to do every reskin in class order
- You do not have to get a separate kill with the Lugermorph and CAPPER, one kill counts for both reskins (see the icons I put in the video if you want to know exactly what's been combined)
- If you encounter a lobby full of bots/cheaters, try not to spawn in as to not complicate things. If you do happen to spawn before realizing that the server is full of bots, simply disconnect as soon as you can and subtract the time spent in that lobby from your end time (obviously kills in that server will not count)
Whoever is 1st place on the leaderboard on December 1, 2023 may receive a prize if the time is good enough :)

A better ruleset would be: If you don't own the reskin just do it with the regular weapon

[@IsYeaYesyup]

and if a weapon has 2 reskins or more and you dont have any of them you just get two or more kills with the same weapon

[@egemenozan5641]

"I never understood the Charity of 'let's delete our Golden Wrenches'." - If you weren't there, you don't understand how POISONOUS that whole fuckin' update was dude. Like, people crafted their entire backpacks for a chance to get those Golden Wrenches, and so, so many people regretted it, especially when it turned out that the way they said the Wrenches were obtained was a lie. There wasn't a chance 'every time you crafted' to get a wrench, they were on a Timer. So people would just... delete their entire backpacks basically, to try and get something they were never gonna get. Those wrenches and their 'drop' method was toxic af, and the Charity to delete them wasn't about flexing on poor people, it was about flipping the bird to Valve's method of releasing them in the first place.

[@goldenmansion1012]

Perhaps a rule with the all-class melee’s is one kill with a different reskin per class (getting a kill with the pan on scout then getting a kill with the crossing guard on soldier, etc). Edit: I looked up how many all-class melee reskins there are, and (excluding the gold frying pan and saxxy since one is unobtainable and the other is basically unobtainable) there are exactly 9, meaning that a future rule could be to get a kill with a different melee reskin per class. Example: a bat outta hell kill with scout, crossing guard kill with soldier, pan kill with pyro, freedom staff kill with demo, conscientious objector kill with heavy, necro-smasher kill with engineer, memory maker kill with medic, ham shank kill with sniper, and prinny machete kill with spy.

The "that's within your means" didn't really apply to the golden wrenches because they weren't tradable.

@kinkinkijkin I understand sarcasm you nonce, there was none. You dick riders have to just admit when your favourite youtuber acts retarded. If it was just le sarcasm then explain how you do the speedrun without the capper, you can't because he wasn't being sarcastic, he's just a fucking hypocrite and a stupid one at that.

(Deep inhale) *WEAPON RESKINS IN TF2 HAVE ALWAYS SEEMED LIKE A STRANGE CASE TO ME*

[@Aigis31]

Another good suggestion for anyone else running this: Use only in-game time when timing the speed run, so that way beefier PCs don't have an advantage on load times

[@_indii]

Can we just take a second to appreciate how great blue always fails to make us laugh?

[@Ploxtifs_OldAndDeadAccountXD]

The big-ticket items would cost roughly $85 for the batsaber, ~$80 for poker night reskins, $40 for the headtaker(if you don’t have one) ~$22 for a C.A.P.P.E.R. , $23 for the giger counter, $25 for the big kill, $12 for the shooting star, and $600 for a tradeable black rose And like,

[@Carter-ze8il]

Weapon Reskins in tf2 have always seemed like a strange case to me. On one hand if you like how a weapon works but hate how it looks it's nice to have another option to choose from. But on the other hand, reskins usually look like they would function differently from their counterpart. And I've always thought it would be neat if cool looking weapons like the maul had more of an identity than "Its the Homewrecker but for rich people" So I took a large number of weapon reskins currently available in the game and gave them their own set of stats ranging from "Slightly modified sidegrade to the original" to "Completely new weapon idea that's not balanced at all but a ton of fun."

[@thatoneguywiththatonename]

6:21 is hilarious out of context

[@kyberhazard]

What a strange case, and an interesting challenge.. I'd try this myself if I actually had all the weapons xD

[@MegaTuroc]

A speedrunning strat may be to pick maps you enjoy to get primary/secondary kills, CTF maps for sniper primary, degroot keep for all melee kills

[@modelvp2405]

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

[@timwardo5877]

So the question is, what do you do if you can’t really get reskins like the Iron Curtain or can’t afford it like the geiger counter. I propose maybe allowing something like original Featives since they are technically reskins. Stuff like the Festive Wrangler!

[@rocwolfe2674]

weapon reskin speed challenge 2.0 (impossible): every single war paint/weapon skin also i feel like the ham shank/conscientious objector/crossing guard etc. shouldnt count as all-class melees as it technically isnt all-class being that spy and engineer cannot use them. however, the necro smasher should also be included as while it isnt an all-class, it is a wrench reskin, spy being the only one who cannot use it, and then include the golden frying pan/saxxy/memory maker/prinny machete as they are the true all-class melee weapons being they are knife reskins as well as the other 8 melee reskins
