Soldiers are all-in-one. You don't need any other classes on your team. They can do everything; no specialization. Jack of all trades.
As one wise man once said; “The deadliest weapon in the world is a Marine and his rifle!”. That's soldier. Greatest firepower.
Every class is specialized for something, just soldier is good for everything.
Thus [I][B]he isn't OP; He's just useful in everything; thus unbalanced.[/B][/I]
If it was up to [I]me[/I], I'd [B][I]take their shotguns away[/I][/B]. Whoosh, balanced.
You don't need to build sentries, if you have a soldier.
You don't need to cloak to flank, if you have a soldier.
You don't need to sniper, if you have a soldier in fight.
You don't need Airblast, if you have a soldier, that can effectively dodge a rocket and fire 4 back at the enemy.

Damn, box force shield activated.

The shotguns are pretty much essential to a good soldier. When an enemy is too far away for the rockets to actually deal some damage, give 'em some nice buckshot in their face.

And that's my point.
How does that even make the Solly unbalanced?
If anyone is useful with everything, it's the pyro.
Dominates scouts, can reflect rockets and stickies, air blast around a heavy, or just flaregun him down from a distance, destroy sentries with ease, neutralizes ubers, spy checks, etc.
I wouldn't say that the Soldier was Jack of all trades. I'd say that was the Pyro, he can assist players more than any class.
