{TF2} Bad Box How to Killstreak Guide

[@moonblaze2713]

I think that what makes the Black Box so appealing to players who don't main soldier isn't so much a fear of dying, but that it solves the problem Heavy faces as a power class. Uncle Dane talked recently about how Heavy's big advantage is his health, but unlike other classes' advantages no amount of skilled play will give you more health. Meanwhile, sure Black Box Soldier has his rocket jumping ability hindered, making it more difficult to play his pick style. But in turn, patient play makes him a power class where landing your shots rewards you with more health. Actual Soldier mains aren't going to call landing a direct a high skill play. But to a new player, or someone switching off their main, Black Box Soldier offers an alternative to Heavy for gameplay that dosen't feel too taxing, but actually rewards you for playing well.

Different motive that I suspected but same result. S tier comment man!

​@@An_IanThanks, I appreciate it. There's always a reason someone is using a weapon, and it's almost never to ruin your fun. Unless you did something to piss them off, heh. Something worth keeping in mind when considering motivation. KZbin served me up your channel a few months ago, and I clicked out of curiosity, but that game you were covering before didn't interest me. Not entirely sure why KZbin served it to me, never heard of it before. But now that you're covering a game I actually like? I'm not gonna fluff up your ego here, you're not an S tier KZbinr. Currently. But you've got potential. If you explode I look forward to telling people I found you before you did TF2 and your subscriber count was only 4 digits. And if don't, well hey I'm happy to have the equivalent of an underground indy band no one's heard of. Hehe. Keep it up, man. You've got some talent.

Exactly this. Using the black box makes me feel like an actual frontline power class. I get heavily punished for missing my shots but when I land the blows I can tank a lot of damage.
