Yeah. Snipers also terrible for picking off enemys and Scout is a terrible option for capping the point or avoiding things.

I would gladly post my loadouts but i use the Scarf on all of them :v:

Why would you get a high effectiveness for low effort? That's not really fair.[/QUOTE]
Everyone has their dislikes. I for one really dislike the back burner, I feel it rewards not helping your team and going purely for kills. That being said I have never said anything about it because I know it's just my opinion and really I don't think it's a crutch or anything. Personally I run degreaser, reserve and a homewrecker/powerjack.

I personally don't like the Homewrecker. Since it's more of a utility than a melee, encourages sentry nests, is a direct nerf to Spies, and almost everyone I see liking it has to bitch about how much more useful they are to their team camping around lazy Engineers than people who use the Axstinguisher.

When I posted that the homewrecker sucked because it makes turtling easier and messes with class relationships I got a truck-full of boxes.
I think I made something neat.

I use the Homewrecker, and while I won't go around all "OMIGOD, I'M CARRYING THIS TEAM. DID YOU NOTICE HOW I KNOCKED THAT SAPPER OFF? JESUS GUYS, PICK UP THE SLACK.", I do think that Homewrecker Pyros are more helpful and more team-oriented than Puff n Sting, especially on Defense.
I only have two real problems with Puff n Sting:
1. It has basically no downside other than lessened afterburn. On the list of ways Pyros kill people, I'd say afterburn is JUST above "airblasting off a cliff" (ie. it doesn't happen that often). It's an ambush loadout for a class meant to ambush, which is good, but it doesn't have a counter.
2. Because it's so easy to use (and so effective at basically insta-killing most classes in a fast, cool way), you rarely see Pyros sneaking around and destroying pushes from behind with the Backburner, knocking off Sappers with the Homewrecker, etc. This has gotten better as the Pyro gets more items (hell, even the Phlog is good, it turns the Pyro into a perfect distraction and, if he survives long enough, a powerhouse that can stop an entire push dead in its tracks), but it's still annoying to see.
I don't really get angry about any weapons or anything, but Puff n Sting is the one loadout that gets under my skin just a bit.
[sp]That said, I do hate those self-righteous assholes who dub themselves king of the team. Giving advice/direction is one thing, but being a pompous douche about it is another thing entirely.[/sp]

It can kill every class but the Heavy and Soldier in under 2 seconds of continuous fire.
That is [i]terrible[/i].

Not only that but any soldier and scout can out dps that and kill you before you'd outpace them. And the flamethrower is worthless in anything but short range.

Well for being a class who's primary method of killing enemies is with a very short ranged weapon, and he can easily be killed by Heavies and Soldiers in short range due to their extreme ramp-up, and also being very vulnerable to Scouts and Demomen with their granades in close combat... yes, I'd say that is a bit terrible.

soldier: 100 rocket off the bat, another 100 rocket in 2/3rd's of a second. pyro dead.
pyro: start flaming, deal ~50-100 to soldier. pyro dead.

Heavy can do it faster. Soldier can do it from range. Demoman can do it faster AND from range.
None of them have to be up in the enemy's face.
