When to Use Kritzkrieg (TF2)

[@christopherdenzilsmith1358]

Some of the best TF2 content on youtube. Mr Slin you're a badass cause you put the high level stuff into easy to understand explanations. You're invaluable to the community. Keep it up

[@marxmann3662]

he got community sparkle medigun for that

[@yosht6110]

why do i even go to arrayseven for medic tips.

[@FlamingAomeba]

Joe Lim Cuz he's funny? I personally like his personality.

[@isoforonce7845]

He made fun of billy mays death :(

[@sphee4149]

The kritzkrieg can heal the medic using taunt

[@bumbelplayerjeske1534]

Bec he doesn't use painting Programms

[@kamilnowakowski3917]

because AS has tips for newbies in edible form while here you have tactics for comp?

[@jimpa7011]

This is a very good strategy except when your whole team sucks. lol

[@joanaguayoplanell4912]

And since my team almost always sucks, in one word the times to use the Kritzkrieg is NEVER.

[@issintf925]

issue with crits. I can't uber taunt...

[@MLGProMaster-tu9tz]

Lol

[@connorthompson66]

I find it incredible how simple changes to the standard Medi-gun can have such an astronomical impact on the game! The Kritzkreig is one of the best examples of a simple weapon being so complex! I love using The Kritzkreig when the enemy team is trying to push via means other than Ubercharge(such as a banner), so I can literally blow them up when I have beat them to Ubercharge!

[@evanmacarthur-waltz1795]

you might also mention the idea of pop or drop, that if you are forced into a tough spot, then you can pop über, and save your life, but with crits, that won't save you.

[@zelda12346]

That's right. Disable random Kritz.

[@BallstinkBaron]

I like Paint bcs it removes it from the game, makes it easier to learn.

[@PeacefulJem]

Thanks, now I know as a med main when to run kritz!

[@AFKNinjaCat]

you sounds like you would make an amazing friend steve :) loving these uploads, not only is your content teaching me more knowledge about tf2, but your positive makes me happier. thanks

[@touchportyl]

Very insightful as always. I like the idea of a kritzkrieg rotation, it would be hard for newer teams to grasp and get used to though.

[@mmasters180]

Really got to say I've never known when to run kritz before and either stayed true to stock or randomly pulled out kritz if I felt the team needed to force the uber (and usually got wiped because we sucked and they had advantage XD) Thanks for finally teaching us how to use it! :D

[@doswallo]

What happens if both teams try to surprise the other with a Kritzkrieg? Are they just balanced as if they're both using Stock?

[@ke-ok8eb]

Yeah I guess.

[@doswallo]

Hakim Azizul I see

[@medlockjodengrad6231]

no, its basically a hardcore pocket mge. because its going to do ALOT of damage.

[@doswallo]

Medlock Jodengrad I see

[@dovydasgrigas441]

never understimate the usefulness of paint

[@Epicwindow3]

well krit rotation sounds really dangerous since 1.first krit to trade their uber=you can die if they use the uber just to kill you/teammate then they can push in with numbers/heal advantage and they get out of last(or even mid if you died) 2.defense advantage aka Demo"s traps which may shutdown your krit and you but well it sounds like a good plan on gravelpit where you have no points to lose

[@LJThePerson]

I feel like I'm watching TF2 Khan Academy

[@joelkirk8120]

Thank you for all of your video's. It's so nice to be treated like a real person and a serious player and to not have to wade through a million stupid jokes to get the information

[@uncledemocracy8723]

I've thought about this but didn't think like you did... Thanks again!

[@JustASnack]

If I'm spawning in the middle of the round as med, and the entirety of the rest of my team is holding somewhere, is it a good idea to send a scout back to the med to help the med build on the way to the hold point?

[@dashyz3293]

Clearly. Not only should someone be around you basically almost all the time(to protect you, help them stand their area longer, and other stuff), but it is very important for medics to be on constant full build rate.

[@Hakasedess]

Always. Krit > *

[@if3660]

3:40 why am I imagining my 6 year old girl narrating this?

[@DontsubscribetothischannelCool]

Because mr.slin is secretly a little, 6 year old girl. She uses a voice changer. Quite impressive imo

[@if3660]

+Don't subscribe to this channel really, then that is some damn good makeup that 'she' uses.

[@zedacht8389]

well she is asian they all ... okay im not finishing that joke

[@Zipped44]

So the Kritzkreig is good when you have even present or uber advantage

[@user-dr2ph4ec4g]

Really loving this regular uploads slin! keep us up please!

[@moustache5557]

I'm a roamer, so don't hate me for asking this if it's stupid, but should you also run crits if, as an example, there isn't enough time to build normal ubercharge, like on product or something?

[@MRSLIN]

Technically yes, you should run kritz if you won't get uber, but you can't guarantee that you won't get uber, especially if you can disrupt or mess up the enemy team's plans. If you're able to successfully do that, suddenly you're on this inferior kritzkrieg when you could have a full uber charge so in these situations it's typically safer to run uber even though kritz would theoretically be the correct play.

[@karabiner002]

+MR SLIN Kritz is awesome when defending

[@joshsmil3768]

Finally, the answer to my question! (New to medic)

[@HCutie]

Power of paint!❤️

[@TheNewMaxico]

The msp diagrams are great

[@nerdokiddo8106]

so the kritzkrieg is better for more offensive plays when you're (for example) on payload 1st

[@osvldo]

some footage would have been better but this was still good

[@nospoiler]

Well thats an ideal scenario. For example in the kk rotations the red med will pobably be healing more hurt players=faster uber

[@chickenish9339]

no, he put min time, such as if they had a Boston Basher scout.

[@sigmundfreud7903]

I always thought krigzkrieg is the high risk, high reward strategy as Crits do not benefit against sentries or Uber, and the enemy is capable of killing the pocket even during Uber.

[@metroidfannumber1234]

It really is for defensive strategies TBH. I think in general use the stock uber would be the best use for offensive plays. If you and your opponent both have full critz what's the best plan of action for any of the points? If I had to pick a map for example it would be granary.

[@topikauppinen7728]

Krits a good sniper crit noscopes 1shot meds and scouts (no buffs) if buffed smg them down

[@BattlebearsRoyale]

Wait, whenever I spy I disguise as the enemy med to check the medigun so unless I'm missing something, I've never been surprised

[@HermesSonofZeus]

Great video!

[@manspider1928]

+MR SLIN I love you man, you're so cool

[@noway2831]

You mentioned playing around kritz multie times here - how? And how do you counter kritz rotations?

[@medlockjodengrad6231]

good scout and a good medic can build uber real quick.

[@YanYanicantbelievethistakenffs]

Mr Slim what is your vision in krit a scout into wiping the enemy medic? I am planning into starting competitive tf2 and i play medic a good amount and this was one of the things that i tought so i wanted some opinion. Lets put the scenario: 2 medics at 100% due to not having the oportunity to catch the enemy medic, Most of the team buffed. ¿Is it worth to go flanking with the scout with krits to try to catch the medic and wipe him out in one crit boosted scattergun shot and pick the enemy medigun? so we have a normal uber for the next fight or if done quickly a ~10% uber advantage due to pikcking the enemy medigun.

[@lyell63]

Well, this is a late response but if it is successful you just wiped a med and an uber. If you fail, you loose 2 players and probably drop your entire team. I guess the risk reward depends on which cp you are fighting for. Uber stalemates can also be broken via sniper, which is technically safer since if he dies you are only a plaer down and you don't drop your med

[@YanYanicantbelievethistakenffs]

@@lyell63 pretty good point

[@vanilla8956]

So 6v6 Kritz is the reverse of Casual Kritz? Interesting. I think the main reason is the presense of level 3 sentries

[@nn3534]

Run a Kritz when their med has a uber advantage... Right? (Haven't watched the video yet) Also, I love the MS drawing videos. It's much easier to follow than gameplay personally.

[@tomenright4400]

not always, sometimes you want to use kritz if you have equal ubers sometimes because you can make enemy med drop, and get number advantage to cap

[@namelastname2674]

When to use crusaders crossbow. I have a lot of problems with that.

[@xza1111]

if youre talking about when to equip it: always if youre talking about when to use it: either when someone is really far away or when someone doesnt have crit heals but need a really quick health boost im not a med main so my statments may not be true, but this is mostly what ive seen medics do when i play

[@MrMineHeads.]

+Martin Sun this is true

[@christopherlombardi6924]

Thank you!

[@villenilsson7182]

I like it, *hands over banana*

[@frodobaggins1423]

The correct time to run kritz is all the time.

[@bakenbacon1103]

this ms paint reminds me of Marxist videos

[@TheUKNutter]

XD lol ikr

[@percy8036]

oh may grudd the math

[@brothersaturn3937]

i think i learned more cuz of the paint XD

[@medlockjodengrad6231]

dem, i knew this strat as a non-medic main

[@Chancechancechancechancechance]

"That's critical to know" Kappa

[@konstaConstant]

that's right

[@timothygao9442]

Really?! 40 minus 32 is 8? WOW!!!!!!

[@nerdokiddo8106]

a strange kritzkrieg is WAY too overpriced

[@shtuffs]

Too much math my brain hurts now

[@ChaseDucc]

Rip MS Paint

[@realJtropical]

this is cringefull, but very educational

[@garciarodriguezluis6103]

lol

[@salsberry8287]

did you seriously just use the word cringefull and try to call this video cringey?

[@reginaldpool5485]

+berry yeah i watch Mr slin too
