Similar to the Direct Hit, I really appreciate that the FaN provides an entirely new way to play the class. The FaN is a little TOO different for me though, and I find myself switching back to Scattergun real quick. Also, never stop the Melee references. Melee is forever

Hello, fellow Waddle Dee.

[@XFanmarX]

Back in pubs I once got put into a Coldfront game where I decided to be a scunt for the day. Quote-binds and all. Immediately an enemy scunt started using his own binds after every kill. Then there was another one on their team... and another one... and then another one on my team! Usually, everyone goes tryhard to be the biggest alpha scunt in the server but for some reason this time there was the silent but obvious decision we would all leave each other alone while we harassed each others team. After a while the chat was nothing but scout quotes and angry team members from both sides. It was a great day that I will remember forever.

The funny thing about the soda popper being way better than the force-a-nature is that it’s canonically a modified FaN( on another note, out of soundsmith’s ten most viewed videos, this is the only one that isn’t a stereotypes episode, and it also happens to be 10th place)

[@Chloemew]

Bearded is very familiar with the depths of those cliffs

[@amaulana090]

My favorite thing about the force a nature is that the first shot typically leads to an easy second shot, even if that means less damage. They fly in a straight line away from you, which naturally requires very little adjustment in aim. And if you couple that with running forward, you may actually run the same speed with the enemy, leading to a second shot that's near them. A solid 100+70 damage.

[@Mate_Antal_Zoltan]

the faster firing speed also makes you fire faster so just saying, you could probably chain 2 nearly point blank shots if you're good

POV: How many Smash references can SoundSmith fit in one video

[@SlingingHashSlasher]

I like to use the FAN against pyros. Blast them out of their effective range then finish them off with your pistol Also its really good in close quarters because the knock back knocks them into the wall making it extremely easy to line up another shot

[@the_furry_inside_your_walls639]

This right here. At its heart, the force-a-nature is a close-quarters shotgun, as one should expect a shotgun to be. If you can aim properly, you should be able to kill a non-ubered/buffed enemy at close quarters with the FAN, and if not then you can usually finish them off with a pistol or melee.

[@PikaARK]

As a FaN Scout main that owns an Aussie FaN with almost 12k kills almost all of the Non-Meme things about this video are true if you use it with literally any non-Stock Pistol secondary. With the Pistol however you can kill a Heavy in less than 2 seconds and chase almost as well as the Stock with all the mobility of the FaN intanct if used with the Stock Pistol, doing the high-jump when being chased by a Soldier can basically negate the splash on the ground forcing them to actually aim at you and give you an advantage by being able to get the highground without a ledge to stand on. Not gonna bother explaining all of the other reasons why the FaN is underrated as hell by the community, but those are a few. FaN is better for independant Scouts that like to move around the map and get a few quick kills then get outta there, Stock is better for larger-scaled teamfights with 2-3 or more enemies to kill at once. Neither is better than the other if Mastered, but most people are biased towards Stock so ima get a shitton of hate on this comment if anybody even sees it.

[@schizoshooter]

Nah I completely agree, however stock is a little above the FaN because of it's fairness. Fighting against the FaN is annoying as hell, there's a reason why people hate on it.

[@PikaARK]

I agree that Stock is slighty overall better, i just prefer the FaN's playstyle which is why i use it over Stock. Yeah i know it's annoying at times but most people respect the ''Good'' FaN Scouts because it's underrated and using a sidegrade to be just as effective as Stock.

[@schizoshooter]

Didn't really think of it that way. I use it for that reason too but I can't help but always feel bad for using it.

[@PikaARK]

I stopped feeling bad when the tryhards that die to it get salty as hell, but i do respect people's opinions about it being ''Annoying''. What i CAN'T stand however are the people that just say you should uninstall for not using the exact same loadout as every 6's Scout/Just straight up call you shit even though you're stomping them. Counter argument to people that say it takes absolutely no skill to use look at Stock, if you miss a shot don't worry, you have 5 more. If a FaN misses a single shot however, you can't kill ANY class in the game without having to reload/pull out your Pistol while the Stock Scout can keep firing and kill several people.

[@schizoshooter]

Yeah I think the FaN and scattergun take the same amount of skill, but the FaN is less respected if that makes sense. I'll always like the FaN more just because of the diversity it gives the scout, even if getting the high ground for free is unfair.

“A Mann’s guide to the force of nature” I see what you did there

[@_zerohour_]

I want to... thank you Soundsmith. If it wasn't for this video, I would have never played TF2. I simply thought that the force a nature looked cool, and well, installed the game. Now, I have almost 1000 hours, got my first stranges a few days ago, am level 76, and have just about every unlock. Ive enjoyed every second of the game, and at one point, used to get mad that I died. One day, something just, clicked. I didn't improve like that, but it spiked for me, I started improving rapidly, having more fun, rarely getting mad. Sure the game's in the shits right now, but its still fun as hell. I know this comment is quite long, but I just wanted to say thanks, you introduced me to the game I love.

3:06 all he had to do was get behind the Heavy also I'm pretty sure that the faster firing speed is there to cancel out the enemy-flying-out-of-range-so-you-deal-less-damage problem, because you can shoot them BEFORE they get out of range

[@TheCasualGamer3578]

Ok, so I know no one will see this on an old video, but can we talk about how in the smash edit section, heavy gets such subclasses as hoovy and fat scout, but bearded expense is its own subclass. This is because bearded expense heavies break the laws of physics.
