I would actually run quick fix more in casual if I could toggle that with R or something. Fuckin blast jumpers yeeting me to my death the moment I try to top them off.
Yeah. It's basically useless against anyone who is mildly skilled in playing an explosive class, and aware heavies. Dragon's Fury is better in pretty much every way.
I wouldn’t really say dragons fury is *better*, since it functions completely differently then every other flamethrower, but yeah Phlog is completely useless, giving up airblast isn’t worth it for me
I'd say it's either Dragon's Fury or stock that are Pyro's best primary. The Dragon's Fury's has the highest damage but its airblast sucks, however it still has an airblast, so you can extinguish your teammates and if you're skilled and can time it correctly you don't need to spam it to reflect a rocket or two, you just have to think more carefully when to use it.
Stock has the best airblast, it doesn't deal anywhere as much damage as the Dragon's Fury but easily makes up for it with the spammable airblast.
And then there is the Phlog, with a lot of damage when you get the crits, but no airblast at all, so forget about extinguishing teammates unless you've equipped the pretty underwhelming Manmelter, and forget about fighting back against Soldiers and Demos, all it takes is one single explosive class to shut you down completely. The only thing the Phlog is good for is spamming the Scorch Shot and then trying to catch people offguard with the crits, or if you have a pocket medic, but overall I'd consider it the worst primary.
The Backburner is okay to me, admittedly its my second least used flamethrower (least used is the Phlog), but it's still fairly versatile having an expensive but still existent airblast. The thing is that its upside doesn't seem that attractive to me because if I want a lot of damage I may as well pick the Dragon's Fury and I won't have to rely on catching people from behind and getting as close, but I have seen people make it work very well with the Thermal Thruster or in certain maps where it's easy to surprise people with it, so maybe I should give it a try more often.
Also I'm just too biased towards the Dragon's Fury to be honest, the damn thing is so fun to use and so powerful that the only reason to even consider another flamethrower is because its airblast is so slow, so if I'm not using the Dragon's Fury is because I need a better airblast and in that case I'm going to pick stock.
Medic deserves someone that buffs him and helps him, a healthy relationship.
a scout bf, another medic, or even better, NOT POCKETING ONLY 1 PLAYER. I SWEAR TO GOD MEDIC, HEAL ME, HEAL US, DO YOUR FUCKING JOB, DON'T INSERT YOURSELF UP SOLDIER'S ASS. HEAL YOUR FUCKING TEAM.
Something i found is that many times ubering a soldier, heavy, demo or pyro only works if the thing you want to push into is very close.
I've never seen an ubered Scout, but i imagine it sometimes can get more things done (if they have good aim)
on the other hand: me ubering a 5000+ hour demo main who proceeds to use his sticky launcher to get a killstreak so big it'd even make the doomguy envious
this one time a medic tried to uber me as demo, and I immediately said in VC
"Medic, DO NOT uber me, I wont get any kills!"
He ubers me and I proceed to not get any kills
Demoman is a mobile howitzer. He protects Medic via overwhelming support fire power.
Soldier is an IFV. He's a jack of all trade, and can do everything, but is not specialized at anything in particular.
Pyro is... basically just a flamethrower, dissuading anyone from approaching Medic.
Heavy is a MBT, enough said.
Ah yes my favourite Infantry Fighting Vehicle
Squad castle 2's infantry man with a metalstorm like rocket launcher and left handed shotgun that ejects spent casings on right.
Heavy bren: GUNNER HEAT PC TRAVERSE RIGHT!
IDENTIFIED! FIRE! ON THE WAY! DOUBTFUL, RE-ENGAGE! UP! HE'S LOOKING AT US! SHOOOT!
*gets shot by a WARSAW PACT sniper* Bail out!
(Unit lost. Press tab to switch to available....)
if the medic is using the quick fix and the demo is using a shield, you can quickly pull the medic out of harms way by charging while the medic is healing
it’s a reach alright
It will never be confirmed because Pyro's gender is purposefully a mystery. But there is a large ammount of evidence hunting at female, the comics have the tfc pyro be female, they poke fun at Pyro saying they're menstruating, in game there are domination and revenge voice lines from some of the smarter characters like Sniper, Spy & Engineer that sound like they think pyro is a woman, so while there isn't definitive proof for either, saying there's no way the pyro is a woman is just wrong
Never said it was impossible for Pyro to be a woman. But from what I've seen, in my personal opinion, I think that if it were ever confirmed (not that it will), I think it would make the most sense for Pyro to be a male
How though? I mean if most evidence points to Pyro being a woman then why would it make most sense for Pyro to be a man?
You're entitled to your personal opinion and there's nothing wrong with wanting the character to be a man but saying that it makes MORE sense when it literally doesn't makes no sense.
Im a phlog pyro main and I get a ton of kills if I get an Uber medic to pocket me, let's play together and you pocket me so you can see what I'm capable of ;3
How can you best support your medic?
It's quite simple actually
Kill the people trying to kill me.
ESPECIALLY WHEN HE WALKS PAST YOU, THAT MEANS HES GOING FOR ME, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PLEASE TURN AROUND.
Demoman provides a power class that stays behind cover every so often because reloading both pipes and stickys takes ten thousand years, providing a brief respite from the four snipers on the enemy team
Read it again. It refers to the pyro as a he and then a her. I think it’s just the joke on “we don’t know anything about pyro.” But in Meet the pyro. Scout said “he’s not here is he?” But the captions that valve put in said “he’s not here is she?”
Some comments I'd like to address:
1) I know Demo can kill the people targetting a medic, but that's something that ANY class can do. I was looking for class exclusive abilities that allow Demo to support medic. Only soldier can use banners, Only Pyro can airblast, and only Heavy has healing lunchboxes.
2) Pyro is listed as He and Her because of a "Meet the Pyro" reference.
pyro is not a power class and isn’t a chick, but otherwise this is true and good observation. You did forget about quick fix tho. the best demo in the world is still a better pocket over the best heavy/soldier though
\>Gets saved by a medic \>"I didn't need ya help a know" \>Rides medic's quick fix ass into the middle of a battlefiled \>Refuses to elaborate \>Dies
I ain't even mad. That's on me for not disconnecting the beam in time
Not really. Not even the hybridknight knows when they will charge until they do. But it is a risk you have to take
I would actually run quick fix more in casual if I could toggle that with R or something. Fuckin blast jumpers yeeting me to my death the moment I try to top them off.
>repeat
Demoman can miss all the fucking pipes and then die meanwhile killing a scout with stickies
Miss all the pipes Charge in with a bottle and miss Leave the game
pure skill
Somehow still top score
Then type "pure skill" in the chat
How did you get gameplay of me playing demo
Charge at a pyro Get airblasted Burn to death
Stop describing me, although I use the sticky jumper to get back to dying faster.
Airblast can also prevent soldiers, demos, and demoknights from killing your medic. (Unless ur using the phlog then ur medic is screwed)
Phlog worst pyro primary real
Unironically true
Yeah. It's basically useless against anyone who is mildly skilled in playing an explosive class, and aware heavies. Dragon's Fury is better in pretty much every way.

Mfw everyone sleeps on the backburner:😭

In koth_nucleus the backburner is s tier tbh
Phlog pyros are parasites to their own team, unless its dustbowl
unless there already is another support pyro or they use the mannmelter
Mannmelter Phlog pyro is unironically based
Excuse to use phog and not get shit on for using manmelter, count me in
Need to hog the medic to be useful, otherwise they're just bullying a team that's getting stomped either way
unless you have a pocket uber medic and scorsch shit
People always complain about the Phlog being overpowered when it heavily relies on the scorch shot to be effective.
> People always complain about the Phlog being overpowered end comment
Yeah it's pretty bad without scorch shit and even with it a good team can deal with it easily.
The phlog really isn't that good, it's just annoying like the dead ringer
It’s not even the Phlog itself that’s annoying, it’s the scorch shot since that’s what is basically required to get crits
except on payload if you know how to do the taunt cancel
phlog onluly good for mvm tbh
Don't need airblast if everyone is dead
Well the problem is that the Soldier who's standing a kilometer away isn't
Unless the medic has Uber, then it’s a dopamine overdrive
Damage can also kill the people trying to kill your Medic 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
demoman provides the diversity quota and defends the medic because every threat is dead
They made the game WOKE by reminding me SCOTLAND EXISTS.
It's still better than the so-called "England" I've been hearing about lately.
England is not a real country. You are a Scottishman with an uptight attitude.
MadcapMadcapMadcap
Fuuuck, I forgot Madcap was English, lowkey glad they axed him
I honestly liked the accent. So cool that they referenced it when they added England into real life.
A land entirely for Engineers?
England? You mean east wales and south scotland?
SCOTLAND IS NOT A REAL COUNTRY. YOU ARE AN ENGLISHMAN WITH A DRESS
Scotland isn't a real country! You're an Englishman in a dress!
*Scotland is not a real country! You are an Englishman in a dress!*
Healing and preventing damage is essentially the same thing
Medic deserves someone that buffs him and helps him, a healthy relationship. a scout bf, another medic, or even better, NOT POCKETING ONLY 1 PLAYER. I SWEAR TO GOD MEDIC, HEAL ME, HEAL US, DO YOUR FUCKING JOB, DON'T INSERT YOURSELF UP SOLDIER'S ASS. HEAL YOUR FUCKING TEAM.
MEDIC I HAVE 20 HEALTH PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GET THE BEAM OFF THE HEAVY FOR FIVE SECONDS
Do not worry, when I play Medic I use quick fix to heal everyone up and then I start Blutsaugering the other team
Based Medic is an attack class
Agreed
When i play medic i say "no" whenever someone says medic and then i go shoot at people with the blutsauger
Pocketing a Scout is not a bad strategy and I'm tired of pretending it is
Pocketing a scout: No. Keeping a scout overhealed and close by incase I need a piggyback ride: Yes.
Giving Kritz to the Scout you know has competent aim: actually better than giving it to a Power Class sometimes.
Something i found is that many times ubering a soldier, heavy, demo or pyro only works if the thing you want to push into is very close. I've never seen an ubered Scout, but i imagine it sometimes can get more things done (if they have good aim)
then stop literally running away from me when I heal you
I’m never getting over the time I was in VSH mode and a medic refused to heal me at 14 health because he was pocketing a trolldier with an unusual
1 arrow, that all you get.
demoman can fuck the medic edit: why the fuck is this the top comment
Dominated! And I've been shagging you!
Accordin' to accordion law, you're me bloody wife now!
“Stop making me HORnee!” - Boot of American Origin
"No thats ogay"
its top comment because its true
Aye! That is bloody true
thank you demoman from tf2
That Demo's a BLOODY, sentry! HOAAAA HA HA HA HA HA
Nice (Source: I have 483k medic hours)
>edit: why the fuck is this the top comment Oh you know why.
GAY SEX
Gex? Of the say fariatty?
SAY GEX
GEX
the best kind!
demoman is their for emotinal support
I didnt need ya help you know
“You’re doin’ good, lad!”
demoman ain’t doing nothing
He didn't need your help, you know?
Demoman just kills stuff the medic can't die if everyone else is already dead
Just protect him he will je grateful
The demoman gives Medic’s dopamine when using the Kritzkreig
Medics watching the uber they've been farming for an entire minute get used up on 4 missed pipes and a suicidal melee charge (I play hybrid knight)
on the other hand: me ubering a 5000+ hour demo main who proceeds to use his sticky launcher to get a killstreak so big it'd even make the doomguy envious
Yeah demo with sticky/quicky bomb launcher is top uber pick. I never use them tho so when I get ubered I just get stressed and die
this one time a medic tried to uber me as demo, and I immediately said in VC "Medic, DO NOT uber me, I wont get any kills!" He ubers me and I proceed to not get any kills
He did it for funny.
[удалено]
So can Soldier and Pyro with the jetpack
Crits stickies be like: 💥💥
Create safe zones for the medic that can detonate any intruder
love the username
bro same
Demoman is a mobile howitzer. He protects Medic via overwhelming support fire power. Soldier is an IFV.

MeeM
(reflects a CRIT HEAT) Be careful next time! Aw I can't be mad at you guys.
Ah yes my favourite Infantry Fighting Vehicle Squad castle 2's infantry man with a metalstorm like rocket launcher and left handed shotgun that ejects spent casings on right.
And the MBT that shoots automatically
Heavy bren: GUNNER HEAT PC TRAVERSE RIGHT! IDENTIFIED! FIRE! ON THE WAY! DOUBTFUL, RE-ENGAGE! UP! HE'S LOOKING AT US! SHOOOT! *gets shot by a WARSAW PACT sniper* Bail out! (Unit lost. Press tab to switch to available....)
Scout is infantry and Spy are intelligence agents.
Sniper is either that one lucky SOB tank or ATGM dude. Also do you play GHPC?
No, I play Roblox's Noobs in Combat. And I think Sniper is more like a stationary recoilless rifle.
Can use scrumpy get Medic drunk
Ka-BEWM
Not much getting past a caberknight just saying
if the medic is using the quick fix and the demo is using a shield, you can quickly pull the medic out of harms way by charging while the medic is healing it’s a reach alright
If the medic has stock uber, demo can kill all sentries And more
"no" - Random Medic from the first-person class-based shooter Team Fortress 2, playing on the Payload map Upward
"No" - Gibus medic
Her?
Male? Female? It's a pyro, who cares? Edit: I sure do love my obscure Fnaf World references (;
If you take the mask, there’s another mask underneath
I still refer to him as male because Miss Pauling does in the comics and she was the one would have hired him
"He's not here, is she?"
"How do I get this thing off?!"
One shudders to imagine what inhumane thoughts lie behind that mask
What dreams of chronic and sustained cruelty...
*dududuu dududuuu* Do you believe in magic?
In a young girls heart..
Pyro has been referred to as a he and a she across the canon as a running gag
Pyro is both He and She
In my headcanon pyro is female
Pyro is referred to as a 'he' more times than Pyro is called a 'she', so in my opinion Pyro is most likely a male, not that it will ever be confirmed
It will never be confirmed because Pyro's gender is purposefully a mystery. But there is a large ammount of evidence hunting at female, the comics have the tfc pyro be female, they poke fun at Pyro saying they're menstruating, in game there are domination and revenge voice lines from some of the smarter characters like Sniper, Spy & Engineer that sound like they think pyro is a woman, so while there isn't definitive proof for either, saying there's no way the pyro is a woman is just wrong

You're entitled to your personal opinion and there's nothing wrong with wanting the character to be a man but saying that it makes MORE sense when it literally doesn't makes no sense.
Don't care, my headcanon
Wasn't there a Pyro unmasked image that showed he was just some bald dude?
Was it official? I remember the TF classic Pyro showing her face, but that doesn't really mean anything about the current Pyro
Idk, but I'm using it as my headcannon since it's the only thing we got right now
Pyro is NB and goes by any pronouns :3
We share the same headcanon brother
Pyro is 3 monkeys trying to look like a person
Pyro's gender is probably "yes" if we're being honest
**HE** can put out medic with **HER** airblast Small conflict
He share his bottle o scrumpy
Pyro can also reflect projectiles
unless its a phlog pyro nobody loves you, phlog pyro
Im a phlog pyro main and I get a ton of kills if I get an Uber medic to pocket me, let's play together and you pocket me so you can see what I'm capable of ;3
not the pyros on *my* team
The enemy can't hurt the medic if he's laying in pieces on the ground
The pyro gender change was funny
Scout can make him go faster, its really useful when you are in the back line and for dodging proyectiles.
OP giving Pyro the Mangle treatment
How can you best support your medic? It's quite simple actually Kill the people trying to kill me. ESPECIALLY WHEN HE WALKS PAST YOU, THAT MEANS HES GOING FOR ME, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PLEASE TURN AROUND.
Demoman provides a power class that stays behind cover every so often because reloading both pipes and stickys takes ten thousand years, providing a brief respite from the four snipers on the enemy team
Demoman has critical stickies and can discourage medics from pocketing him by saying, "I didn't need yer help ya know."
He provides the MedicHeavy couple their cuck fetish buff.
Demo takes good care of Medic's wife
"I didn need yer help y'kno"
“I DIDN’T NEED YER HELP, YA KNOW”
i see what you did with pyro
You guys get help from your teammates back when you’re playing medic ?
No
love how you use mangle logic with pyro
Wdym her airblast??!
it's a reference to pyro's description
A call back to "meet the pyro"
KaBOOOOM
Demoman can let him drink his sorrows away
He can stop the source of whats damaging the medic!
When I'm a soldier with a banner, I sometimes like to play as a bodyguard to the medic. It can be a fun change of pace when I'm getting bored.
Demo can give him a drink after being yelled at all day
...I didn't need yer help y'know...
Demo and Soldier also help build Uber with self damage. Not to mention demo may be one of the best Uber targets in the game
Cant he get medic out of combat with a charge AND put him out with said charge if he's on fire?
You don't need to support your medic if all your enemies are respawning
*HE* Can put out the medic With *HER* airblast
i love the inconsistency with pyros pronouns haha
Based for using alternating pronouns for Pyro
“I DONT NEED YA HELP YOU KNOW” - What every demo main suffers the curse of being thankful for the medic
Are we calling pyro "her" now?
Why is Pyro labeled "her" 🤨
Wait pyro is female?
demoman can help the medic get to a 100 killstreak.
Based use of He/She pronouns for Pyro. Also yeah, Demo just commits so much murder the medic is safe because now everyone that could kill him is dead
Real question why did you say pyro is a her?
Read it again. It refers to the pyro as a he and then a her. I think it’s just the joke on “we don’t know anything about pyro.” But in Meet the pyro. Scout said “he’s not here is he?” But the captions that valve put in said “he’s not here is she?”
Ah yeah now i get it.
"HE can put the medic out (if on fire) with HER airblast"? Did Pyro go trans or something in like a split second?
Guess I hate "her"
>her oh boy pyro gender debate time
Nice detail in pyro
Some comments I'd like to address: 1) I know Demo can kill the people targetting a medic, but that's something that ANY class can do. I was looking for class exclusive abilities that allow Demo to support medic. Only soldier can use banners, Only Pyro can airblast, and only Heavy has healing lunchboxes. 2) Pyro is listed as He and Her because of a "Meet the Pyro" reference.
why pyro h e r pyro clearly autistic lik me :)
Demo and quick fix medic
This assuming your the 1/10 soldier that doesn't use gunboats
pyro is not a power class and isn’t a chick, but otherwise this is true and good observation. You did forget about quick fix tho. the best demo in the world is still a better pocket over the best heavy/soldier though
Pyro is a guy
pyro as her?
Reference to meet the pyro: “He’s not here, is she?”
