[QUOTE=mooman1080;35845565]A heavy can't shoot around corners, a flaregun can pop and shot for much more damage, and shotgun can deal some damage if a straight up ambush isn't an option.[/QUOTE] No heavy worth their salt is going to allow a Pyro to continuously take free shots at him. He's going to find a way to extinguish and heal himself before he would allow that. Either that or he'll communicate with his team so they can flush you out or chase you away from him. Pyro monopolizes on player mistakes, lack of communication is a player mistake. Pyros monopolize on team's not cooperating, just like the Spy does.

[QUOTE=Cructo;35845588]If he has awareness of his surroundings he'll not go near the corner by himself and if he doesn't he'll jump + shoot and kill the Pyro. [editline]a[/editline] do we have to discuss this every week[/QUOTE] Then we're back to the close quarters fight, or the heavy falls back and the engagement is null. Why does this always happen when ever I mention liking the phlog or something?
I want to be a better Spy. Please help.

So, I just picked up a Max's Head painted black. Named: Batman Described: "They call me weak, I call them an ambulance..." One of the best trades I've ever made.
[QUOTE=Cructo;35845628]Close quarters against a Heavy? The Minigun deals 500 DPS point blank range, do you really think you'll be able to damage him enough in that time span?[/QUOTE] Starting to go in a circle, can we please just stop?
[QUOTE=mooman1080;35845607]Then we're back to the close quarters fight, or the heavy falls back and the engagement is null. Why does this always happen when ever I mention liking the phlog or something?[/QUOTE] Phlog's not a [i]terrible[/i] weapon. It's just terrible against people who know what the hell they're doing. That's mostly attributed to its near-flat skill curve. It's godly when players don't know how to counter it, then it doesn't get much better as the user improves, it gets worse as the enemies improve. For fucking around in a pub server, go nuts, eat your heart out, kill everyone, I don't care. But if you even attempt to use that in a highlander (or if you somehow get a chance to use it in a 6v6), you'll be at a sizable disadvantage against an organized team. That's not to say that it's going to be 100% worthless, the item does have moments where it shines brighter than the other Pyro primaries. It's just that those moments are far less frequent than the overall utility that the compression blast offers. [editline]6th May 2012[/editline] Asdf, why does the argument get suspended while I'm in the middle of typing a post :I
I really think the only decent Grordbort weapon is the cow mangler. Rest of the weapons are just gimmicky and useless.
The only thing I like about the phlog is that its made backburner hate go down. Countless times I'll either kill someone with it, or someone else in the server kills people with it, and I either read/see people saying "at least its not the phlog". Its hilarious.
[QUOTE=Tomo Takino;35845612]I want to be a better Spy. Please help.[/QUOTE] First you have to gain the trust of your enemy team, pretend you are helping them and when they leave their guard down, BAM, everyone dead. Of course they will respawn and will seek for revenge, so better hide.
[QUOTE=Cructo;35845695]The Cow Mangler is the worst rocket launcher.[/QUOTE] I know. When I say decent, that's not saying much. It still blows all the other shite Grordbort weapons out the water.
[QUOTE=Syrix;35845679]I really think the only decent Grordbort weapon is the cow mangler. Rest of the weapons are just gimmicky and useless.[/QUOTE] Those pierce weapons are good in chokepoint maps, but they're too situational.
[QUOTE=Cructo;35845646]Admit that you lost the discussion.[/QUOTE] I'm not playing this argument bullshit, we disagree, leave it be.
[QUOTE=Cructo;35845695]The Cow Mangler is the worst rocket launcher.[/QUOTE] Rocket Jumper is pretty terrible unless you have the Market Gardener. But even then it's pretty difficult to reliably get kills without suiciding yourself into a group of players who want you dead.

[QUOTE=Cructo;35845720]Wasn't really taking the RJ in consideration since it's not used in real fights.[/QUOTE] Clearly you've never seen someone attempt to Kritz a RJ soldier. The thing needs its own model and texture, I've seen too many people confuse the two items because they look identical :v:
[QUOTE=Psychopath12;35845712]Bring the [i]Smackdown![/i][/QUOTE] I'll bring the smack down when I'm less sleepy and not thinking about previous artwork related topics.
[QUOTE=Psychopath12;35845728]Clearly you've never seen someone attempt to Kritz a RJ soldier. The thing needs its own model and texture, I've seen too many people confuse the two items because they look identical :v:[/QUOTE] Same happened with Sticky Jumper.
[QUOTE=l l;35845396]oh sorry dude I forgot to reply, thanks btw I was referring to the picture on your title, it kinda looks like a hippo (besides the teeth)[/QUOTE] Its a dragon. Rrerr.
plog isn't a bad weapon, players who aren't half retarded will know to stay a good distance away from the pyro when he is doing the plog crit taunt. And then safely spam 4 rockets once the pyro's taunt is over. In fact the plog pyro is even easier to kill once he/she as he/she can't airblast and 2/3 rockets will kill him/her. Most people who complain about plog pyro are the ones that stubbornly try to kill the pyro when he/she is doing the taunt(90% damage reduction) and thus get killed 2 seconds later by the crit fire. TL;DR just stay a good distance away from plog pyros when they are taunting and then spam 2-3 rockets/nades at the pyro when he finishes the taunt.
[QUOTE=Cructo;35845748]The Sticky Jumper was useful when you could use the caber without taking damage. The Rocket Jumper is just a piece of shit.[/QUOTE] Rocket Jumper + Equalizer taunt kill = fun for the whole family.
[QUOTE=mooman1080;35845734]I'll bring the smack down when I'm less sleepy and not thinking about previous artwork related topics.[/QUOTE] The smackdown was brought. Just not by yourself, Moonman. This is a haiku.
[url]http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/1602366[/url] Now this is a fair trade. :suicide:
[QUOTE=Syrix;35845679]I really think the only decent Grordbort weapon is the cow mangler. Rest of the weapons are just gimmicky and useless.[/QUOTE] The cow mangler is shit. The bison is nice though. Especially in chokepoints.
I got a $250 dollar offer on my vintage shogun set. I don't think I can actually go through with it though. I'm too attached to them. Le sigh. What's the point of buying rare items if your not gonna sell them when price peaks? There's really no reason to not sell besides "I don't wanna". I need to get out of trading somehow.
[QUOTE=Executive;35845805] Le sigh.[/QUOTE] why
[QUOTE={TFS} Rock Su;35845782][url]http://www.tf2outpost.com/trade/1602366[/url] Now this is a fair trade. :suicide:[/QUOTE] Again, I made you a fair offer
[QUOTE=DatHarry;35845812]why[/QUOTE] Only reason I got into trading was to make some extra money. I got attached, preventing me from actually making money. I should cash out. If somehow the market crashes tomorrow, I'll be down x amount of dollars. Its a shame I actually like, love, my items.

This is why you are now attached to the items, they represent too much for you to sell them for something as common as money.
