When the flying gullitine could combo with the sandman's stun, it was my absolute go to loadout. You could stun enemies from a distance with the sandman and get a guaranteed crit with the flying gullitine. A brutal combo that used to be able to end fights before they even begun!

[@IamStrikareaYsALT]

My own idea would be that the Sandman would slow players as usual, unless it’s a moonshot (a shot from the furthest range), which would be the good ol’ stun

[@sev1120]

@@IamStrikareaYsALT especially as it's a projectile with a fairly steep arc. You'd need to be an aiming god to hit a moonshot. Have it be where up close it's simply knockback, mid-range is a slow, and a moonshot is a stun (not too long. Long enough where, if you're fast enough, the cleaver will hit just before the stun wears off)

[@IamStrikareaYsALT]

@@sev1120 it’s kinda like part of the ‘Skill, Luck, Knowledge’ trifecta. This new Sandman would lean into the Skill part since the better aim, the better stuns you can land.

“Makes you jump a bit higher” The winger allows you to make jumps not before possible. 45% is not “a bit” it is absolutely terrific. I survived situations not before survivable. Use the winger for once 9:00 also, never use the winger as a damage dealer unless your opponent has a sliver of health. It is a utility

[@ItsLeah43]

I say people undersell the damage potential of the Winger. It's not good, but it's still a pistol. Still does good damage on approach to soften up enemies, still a good finishing tool even if the lower clip size makes it really important to land your shots. It's a utility secondary that can also be used offensively if need be and I think that's something I enjoy about it, I always have a hard time using Mad milk or Crit a cola because I just like having the extra bit of insurance with a pistol, just having something to fall back on even if that fall back isn't as good.

Really underestimating the sheer versatility and movement potential of the Winger's higher jump height there. The damage bonus is just the cherry on top. I agree with ultimately choosing between stock and the PBPP, since the Winger is somewhat situational (depends on the map how useful it is), but in a situation where it is useful boy oh boy does it deliver. You can basically go anywhere you want on the map. So many new and unexpected flank routes open up, and if you ever get into a bad situation you can often just jump away to safety somewhere. It's really underrated.

[@OlaftheGreat]

I love the soda popper even without the hype meter gimmick. Its potential for hit-and-run burst damage is simply fantastic. Perhaps it's not quite as consistent on high health classes, but you can often use the pocket pistol to mop up any remaining HP.

The pistol covers you on getaways if you get hit, allowing you to speed up and also heal, and the wrap assassin is a good start to building up your boost, allowing you to exponentially increase your speed and make you a more mobile target over time. The baby faces has less capacity, but encourages a more aggressive playstyle. I loved your load out and I'm gonna try it right now!

[@unbreakablem7130]

@@prediculous8059 "pyro is a scout soft counter" man thats the words of someone that only sees scout getting killed by flare gun combos, exp scouts not only beat pyros but also truly counter them since scout can always stay away from pyro effective range till he pulls out his seccondary and make himself vulnerable to free meatshots( unless he uses the shotgun or panic attack) the only thing that pyro can do to kill scout is using airblast to ambush scout into corners besides that i agree the sun on a stick can be usefull to avoid fire dmg

[@daniel_naaden]

my loadout is Scattergun, Pretty Boy's Pocket Pistol, and Atomizer. I often switch the stock Scattergun with the Force-A-Nature, but in a lot of situations I highly value the scattergun's increased number of shots. I only use Force-A-Nature when my team is significantly winning/guaranteed to win. The Force-A-Nature also has an insanely good sound that, even if it was bad, I'd still use it just because the sound is so cathartic to me. While the PBPP has a smaller clip, I love how it can give you a slight health boost. Absolutely sick. And like you said, the faster shooting speed is HUGE. I'm so glad it was the first gun I unlocked when playing the game, never going back to stock pistol as Scout ever again. Atomizer... it's a level 10 bat, and boy have I died to it so many times because of that dang triple jump. super sick. I'm so lucky to have unlocked so many good items and haven't bought anything (atomizer, PBPP, widowmaker, eureka effect, etc.). great video, glad I'm playing with the best loadout ever!!

This was an interesting watch! I've always been terrible at FPS, but TF2 is still fun for me even though I always have more deaths then kills. Right now I switch between stock and the Shortstop after hearing about it from another channel. I like being able to hit sentries more safely and being able to fight at a longer range better I switch between the pistol and Mad Milk for secondaries. Getting health from the milk is nice since, once again, I'm terrible at FPS XD But after hearing about the slight health gain from the pocket pistol I'm gonna try that as my go to! For the melees, Atomizer is my go to. I suck at aiming and hitting my target, but I'm decent at being annoying and distracting. And this helps a lot with that! Plus it's really fun. You can win one of the CTF just with that if you're careful (I can't remember if it's called Crossroads or Crosspoints) Wrap Assassin is the other one I love. I haven't used it in awhile though

[@Ultamik3y]

The Candy Cane I would probably put between B and A, it gets better the better the player is more than any weapon on Scout, possibly in the game. It pairs well with the Winger and Soda Popper because those two items give you mobility, making it easier to dodge explosives

[@JeffarryLounder]

It's certainly more viable than the sadman. I would put the sadman in an easy E tier just because the health tradeoff for a mechanic that barely works and is useless most of the time isn't worth it. Probably the only melee worse than stock.

i can agree the set is pretty decent. with using the bleed weapons at the start of a fight, it refunds boost if you get hit a bit. i still dont really like it since newer players that arnt the best at dodging and hitting shots so getting that two hits at the start can be a struggle for them. i think that there should be a small buff to the cleaver and wrap assassin to grant a mini crit or slightly more damage since all you get right now from hitting a cleaver and ball is like 50 damage (havent played tf2 in a bit so i dont remember) and 8 damage a second (i think its a second, once again, dont remember) or some sort of primary boost buff (like granting the bfb 25% more charge or granting the soda popper full charge. just an example)

You don't need to fire at once for the soda popper or force a nature. Just turn off auto reload with a toggle config

[@alexandershen4343]

Or you could do the comments suggestion and stop missing like 40% of your shots.

[@moutari_]

As a scout that plays 3 pistols and mostly winger i feel the jump height as much as you feel like playing a machine gun with the pretty boy, ti use it almost all the time because of that jump height that gets you to places that not even the force a nature can get you (depends of the map) and the 25% damage makes it as good as other pistols for finishing your enemies (if random spread dont mess you up)

[@enjoyestenjoyer]

My personal fav is the Back Scatter, Bonk, and Atomizer. You can get behind the enemy with bonk, (maybe even out of other classes reach with the atomizer) and when they give up and go back to the frontlines, you run up behind everyone at the frontlines and back scatter them.

[@stonkykong634]

I love the loadout choice, but sometimes I prefer the added mobility of the winger

[@danielbogdanoski4412]

Same lets be honest the best secondary for scout are all of the pistols the other ones are either really situational or totally uselles but the pistols are really good all 3 are amazing

[@jayjaygolden5123]

I just like the long distance damage the winger gives over the other pistols Sure if you miss your damage falls off quicker but you also need to hit less shots.

[@matheusvasiliauskassoares4361]

My though process is: the winger does what the atomizer does even better and you can actually fight back while using it, so, how's this a inferior secondary to other pistols in any shape or form?

[@BrownieKuma72]

My original scout loadout was scattergun, winger, and wrap assassin. The extra jump high comes in clutch. But then I realized I suck at track aiming, so my new loadout is Scattergun, guillotine, and atomizer. I still get the extra mobility, but this time I have better aim with my secondary since I mainly play projectile classes.

I personally love to use the mad milk and wrap assasin. Just cover some one in milk and put a bleed proc on them and presto, a background healing machine while you do the big damage with the scatter gun no matter where you are. Makes you a bit more tougher to kill in general and makes fights against heavies and pyros easier.

[@puzzlepuddles6712]

the winger's increased jump is 90% the reason why most scouts use it. people don't get a feel for how high that boost can get you. it doesn't seem that high, but on some maps with a lot of flank routes, you start to realize that it's just enough to get you some more places

[@ShyGuyDood]

I feel like the backscatter is criminally underrated... I used it a lot when I was a newer player I couldn't aim, the less accurate spread was amazing and mini crits were good too. I never was effected by the smaller clip because you usually kill your target with a minicrit meat shot.

[@zveks2022]

True how can a weapon be bad if it can one shot 4/9 classes. 3rd best scattergun imo, right behind the soda popper and stock.

[@hexashadowdragon6707]

Also shorstop is also underrated its practically the best cause u never gonna get that close and come back in one piece especially if u are new to the scout also other guns are banned cause force nature could be devastating in cordinated team because of the callout also winger is somewhat becoming a meta and soda poper give a scout straight edge over other scout due to faster firing speed same goes for force of nature

[@Trubbsy]

I honestly use the back scatter 24/7. To me, its above the scattergun since i find more versatility with it because i flank more with scout

[@terrypennington2519]

It's because pretty much anything the backscatter does the stock scattergun can do just as fine. Sure you don't get mini crits but you do get 2 extra shots, which for scout can mean all the difference between whether or not you finish off that duel with the other Scout

[@Thescrambledmann]

I have not experimented too much, but my favorite scout loadout is either critical or MADD milk for secondary the stock scattergun and the atomizer because of the versatile utility it has

[@absolutleynotanalien8096]

The wingers jump boost alows you to reach places that you otherwise would need the atomiser (the atomiser also deploys 50% slower) or a charged soda popper to reach and since your soda popper wont Always be charged and the atomiser cant attack att range so you will have to swap weapons to be able to defend yourself the winger is the best option and also the fastest since joumping trice takes more time than joumping twice or if you kombo it with the soda popper you will be able to fly away untill you fall and die. The winger allso alows you to get around places that you already could get around even faster than before.

[@eomaismaker]

He literally explained why the scout has mostly utility for his melee because he doesn't normally hit people with his melee but then says the basher is the best

giving medic free uber seems like a utility thing to me homes

[@eomaismaker]

@@MSCDonkeyKong But that is barely used unless you are in a competitive game and even then I think that the atomizer's triple jump would be more handy and give more options also sorry for the long response

[@aerial_noclip]

But the basher is also a great ultility for movement for example you can use the bleed damage to make you jump even higher than the atomizer i use it a lot on ctf_2fort

[@eomaismaker]

@@aerial_noclip now I don't use the basher much but I think the fact that it could jump higher than the atomizer is just straight up wrong and plus I think using the weapon that was meant to jump is a lot better than hitting yourself in the face causing a small bit of damage and bleed just to jump a bit and even if it is better somehow there are pairings you can use with the atomizer to make it better like the winger the soda popper or the force of nature both give you much more jump height then either

[@slyseal2091]

@@eomaismaker kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmLSmntojbJ2sNE Only the soda popper can keep up with this. Doesnt make me agree that the basher is good outside of comeptitive, but it definitely has more burst mobility than any other scout weapon.

@@zveks2022 flank doesn't mean you will be behind them 24/7, the consistent 6 dmg shots with consistent spread is better than a gimmick. Also flank also doesn't mean you will be suprise attacking the enemy, most of the time you just WATCH the flank and make sure the other team's flank doesn't get through it. And when you are actually pushing the flank, you are mostly the distraction so that the other team focuses you and your combo will enter in for free and cleanup.
