omg that comment brought back so many memories ..... like a diaper

[@idiamondz1487]

It’s all fun with the dumb picks until the enemy just realizes “wait they’re perma down stickies we can just take space”

[@danielsurvivor1372]

Elaborate to us non competitive guys? 😅 Wdym they can just take space?

[@Narrenturm713]

​@@danielsurvivor1372demo usually holds a choke/place from where enemy team can get out of and start "taking space" to then get as many picks so the enemy team is unable to play as offensive, and will give up the capture point. And if there isnt a demo to control one area that would be a passage to a place where his team is, holding anything would be basically impossible since both soldiers have their roles to provide spam on the enemy team in other areas

[@idiamondz1487]

@@danielsurvivor1372 demos primary role is area denial so if that area isn’t denied they can just walk into it and take ground

[@taistealai5523]

​@@idiamondz1487Makes ye think about what if demoman could use both sticks and shield

[@jakubkarel2336]

​@@idiamondz1487 yeah but instead of area control his team has bulky assassin class that is instantly teleporting from place to place, im not saying its better, but you can see it does also work

[@beepistf2]

absolute machine of a player

[@tannietf2]

respect to him and also to his teammates for letting him play like this 😂 my principle is you can play wacky all you want as long as you got results, and oh boy did odin delivered!

[@doklalodka4364]

shut up

[@sinappanis]

Hell who cares if you get results. As long as you find 5 other people willing to let you play that way who cares if you lose every match. It would be so fun to play non meta against other meta teams. Might even influence some changes.

[@DoctorLudvig]

the goat odin representing demoknights everywhere

[@SuperchargedCoffee]

Crazy that this is viable even with class limits. Would probably be way better if you could have the demoknight replace a soldier instead of the demo.

[@Swfit-tf222]

[@sinappanis]

I think that would be a really interesting idea. Bump the class limit to 2 but only allow one to use stickies. I think using the GL instead of booties would be much more viable.

[@Krispo7007]

THE LAST SAMURAI.

[@davidmacdonald1855]

shinning the light on the knights

[@Sizzyl]

while Odin is by far the best demoknight of all time, the follow up from his team is almost more insane than his play

[@MarcusAlder]

We need to change the 1 demoman class limit to be 1 grenade/sticky launcher

[@ammi5311]

Just the sticky part , it's the 6s format expecting 2 sticky trap but not exceeding . Grenade isn't comparable to sticky

[@louctendo1321]

agreed

[@sinappanis]

@@ammi5311 Yes, the GL is just a shittier RL.

[@benshulz4179]

lmao why does demo have class limit but not scout or soldier?

[@sinappanis]

@@benshulz4179 Because before the class limits became a thing, way back in my day XD XD, 2 demos would slow down the game to a crawl. The comp games were already extremely slow and vary rarely did you see off uber pushes in early 6s time. And people don't like change so that's why you don't see many rules being update or tested after a certain amount of time. Personally I want to see this tested more with only medic being limited to 1 and everything else being 2. I think no class limits is a bit too far though as it just becomes silly.

bro they gtta add more swords and shields, the potential for 6's demoknight is huge

[@tadziu2400]

Not really. Only a few people in tf2 are crazy enough to spend time practicing demoknight. This would be a major update for less than 10 people.

at what point do you just have a pyro

[@techwizsmith7963]

Unironically yeah, one of the scouts going Pyro would be decent, but they'd have to just kinda focus the defence against a demo knight dive. It's very defensive, which isn't great

[@ammi5311]

Because 6s neuron can't connect

[@ruzgar1372]

@@ammi5311 Going pyro to counter Demoknight is more retarded than going Demoknight. None of these plays should work versus a competent team.

[@WaterBisquitte]

Playing well as demoknight is really not that impressive…

[@Flourish38]

Against the tier of player he’s playing against, it absolutely is. The positioning and gamesense required to stay alive and get value, *consistently*, is really high. He’s almost as vulnerable as a medic without the shield charge.

[@misakixd9167]

you could have wrote a reason atleast why you think its not impressive?.... especially the fact that he is fighting against very experienced players it is quite impressive how he handles demoknight and his movement aiming skills while still having a good gamesense like the other ones in the lobby, its an absolute gamechanger for the demoknight

[@yesindeed37]

I main demknight with around 400 hrs on him, hes actually hard to be somewhat usable against competent players, great demoknights and probably one of the best which I kind of know personally are inconsistent in your regular casual
