"the Demo main is the arch enemy of the Engineer" Spies: the moment I lost my identity

[@szarekhthesilentking7043]

Spies got sappers. They can disable and destroy buildings yes, but an engineer can destroy them easily. Now, if an engineer has no short circuit, he can't really do much against a pipe. Kills faster, from longer range, and has AOE. The perfect counter to sentry nests. What does spy have other than a sappers to destroy the buildings? Nothing. He can kill the engineer, sure, but the engineer can figjt back at such a short range.

[@szarekhthesilentking7043]

[@sirreginaldfishingtonxvii6149]

I never considered the whole sticky spam thing being a part of the demo journey every player goes through. Thought those were just relatively experienced players who know what works. Since the meet the demo video shows him using it exclusively for traps, and since that seems to be the intended use of the weapon (you can lay several up to a certain amount, they've got an arming time, they all detonate at once from any range, etc), _and_ that many weapon tips seem to treat it as a weapon meant for laying traps, I always just thought everyone used it as a trapping tool at first.

When I started playing the game, I tended to not use sticky spam as I saw the hate certain people had to it and thought to myself not to do it so that I wouldn’t be an asshole. I used secondaries such as shields, the jumper or the scottish resistance. Of course now I use the stock anyway as it’s generally - you know - pretty good. Of course now I realize I am great with pipes but somehow bad with sticky spam.

[@vyor8837]

You have to learn the distance at which stickies become armed *just* as they reach the target. They're more viable the longer range your targets are and are perfect for killing sentry nests.

[@peterisawesomeplease]

Sticky launcher is the most complex weapon I have ever encountered in an fps. It is a pretty decent weapon even if you don't practice much with it. But at moderate levels of practice people do way better with other tf2 weapons like say the rocket launchers. Its only at very high skill levels that it truely shines. Its not just the arm time you have to get good at. You need to get good at sticky jumping, the radius ramp up, the trade off between arcing for range vs charging for range, pre charging, charging while other stickies are still in the air or while detonating, the tradeoff between going for damage or going for a juggle, Its just endless.

[@theverydankghost9225]

Same with me

[@shallow7060]

Same. I delete scouts and fly over upward but can’t put a single sticky down

[@dragonsmith9502]

I find that demoman mains often make really great pyro mains too, at least when it comes to reflecting. They can reflect ANY grenade and hit just as insane airshots as if they were playing their main. This is a great tip for pyros, too; If you wanna get better at hitting reflects, play more Soldier and Demoman. It's really good practice.

[@hiveknight7416]

One problem: At high levels of gameplay, demos don't put down their sticky launcher. In fact, using it is almost mandatory in a competitive setting. Some of the best demos in the world use the damn thing as their primary- it's straight up better than the pipe launcher for area denial and straight up damage

[@lukelofquist3734]

I agree, but its main downfall is its speed and effectiveness at close range, as well as airshots. Where the pill putter is the king.

[@hiveknight7416]

@@lukelofquist3734 so the lesson is both of demo's launchers have their own important use, and neither of them should ever be underestimated

[@shemshem9998]

I think it was tokfty as well who researched this, they use the sticky louche primarily but defiantly is not like they "don't put down their sticky louncher" they use the sticky 60% of the time and the pipe 40% (not counting meele of cource). I every good player uses their pipes a lot, maybe not as much as stickys but they still use it a lot and more then they ever will use the secondary of any another class. I am actually a pipe main, I usually play very aggressive so it is no suprise that I use the sticky jumper, shields and quicky louncher as my secondary. But I use the iron bomber about 60 to 80% of the time depending on how the game is going. The iron bomber still has the option of using its explosion as a good way to jump up stuff and because of the 20% less detonation time they are better for close combat. And because they roll in a straight line and can't get akr blasted they are very useful to keep pyros at distence, that is something no sticky can do.

[@riamfligby4695]

It’s strange, I find a lot of people saying they started with sticky spamming and only retreating to grenades when they run out. But when I began maining demo I couldn’t stand stickys, I was always using grenades only using stickys for traps or self defence if i ran out of grenades. I had to pick up using stickys in head on combat a lot later when I finally felt confident in my ability to land grenades consistently.

[@greenlight579]

Same

[@ivarsnok1977]

Yes! Same! I have like 250 hours on demo, and for the first 120 hours i used iron bomber, tide turner, claid a more. I was a hybrid knight exclusively. I also used sticky jumper at times. I never even tried stickies, but then i started getting more used with the game and started understand it alot and i realised that i need to try stickies, so i tried them and since then i have used them. Now i believe stickies are demos best weapon.

If you're gonna make 10 steps of a pyro main, remember that pyro had 2 steps, discovery and wacky/cursed cosmetics.

[@william3371]

I think it shows that I’m still at stage 3 or so (despite having less than 50 hours on demo) because I literally said out loud at this part: 3:20, “wait, charging stickies makes them launch at a faster speed?” I had a little bit of an edge by watching LazyPurple’s videos, so I cleared stages 1 and 2 about 3 times faster. However, I spam the grenade launcher because I’m trying to improve my aim, not because I think it’s my only option.

[@Eitbitman]

My personal journey as demomain is that around the first 20 h of installing the game, when I was in that weird phase where unlock=autoequip. I get the scotish resistance before I even had played demoman, so that gets me to play it some. I started playing back in 2013 so certain weapons like the loch and load and later the tide turner were radicly diferent. Better times. Thanks to the scottish resistance, I essentialy skipped the sticky spam stage and became both good at pipeing and laying traps (2 stickies in quick sucession in a tight corner for smaller classes, 3 for big ones. top of stairs, behind doorframes, and low ceilings) At the point the iron bomber was introduced, I was so glued to the loadout that I didn't feel the need to try it, given that even roller are considered, so a weapon with no rolling and no blast radius was a lose lose.

So crazy that he mentioned my load out 😂 i use the Iron Bomber + Charge n targe + Eyelander.
