@@coocato you could also argue that if a scout is able to put in the time and effort to travel all the way around a flank route, avoiding the entire enemy team and probably dodging most of the snipers shots from well outside his own effective range, then he deserves the kill rather than being quickscoped at point blank range. Valve needs to increase the time it takes to scope in, so that if a sniper wants to attempt a quick scope at close range there’s less chance (but still a chance) that it succeeds. If you’re going to make him really good at long range, he should at least be really weak at close range.

I really think an unlock for Heavy's primary slot that synergizes with shotguns would be a welcome addition. Perhaps a tactical vest with a shotgun damage buff, an option of explosive or incendiary shells, either a small health boost or damage resistances like Demo's shields, and an overall small movement speed boost now that you're not lugging a minigun around. TL;DR, I want Fat Scout to be an official subclass.

It's nice seeing my favorite and main class getting some love! Great video as always, and like you said heavy's biggest weakness is his own positioning. It's a hard thing to learn that can only be done with practice, like learning how to weave unpredictably while shooting and what optimum positions provide ample cover (like the payload) because heavy does shoot out of his face. He is most effective as a team player, but the second banana seriously does open up the solo heavy playstyle if desired (and it is very fun). If positioned right, heavy can be a menace, but if done so poorly, he may as well be the fifth spy on your team. Another thing I'd like to add is that although the tomislav is silent rev, there is a very distinct sound after immediately pressing M2 so jump revving constantly with it may give away your position as quickly as the minigun anyway, but it definitely is a great sidegrade. Also yes the GRU are in a great state that reward intelligent play, and the speed is so beneficial I actually run it way more than the FOS unless it's a very open map and the engie is keeping teleporters up.

I played this game long enough to see all these updates happen, and still laughed out loud when I saw the original tomislav spinup time again. I had completely forgotten how ridiculously broken it used to be

man, I LOVED the Tough Break Eviction Notice. Playing mainly pubs, the GRU's Marked for Death would come back to bite you even more often with a random Scout or Spy appearing as you're walking towards the front lines. The Eviction Notice let you escape that, plus it worked as a decent way to escape from Pyros, Spies, or even some Scouts who got up close when you didn't have a rev ready. Just bap 'em once and fly away towards your team. And then they slaughtered it, treating it just as a mini GRU and shoving the same health-decreasing penalty on it, but halved. Being TF2, however, it was bugged so that it took something like 2 times longer to return to a full 300 max HP than the GRU did, which effectively meant that not only did the GRU get you places faster, its downside faded faster. But that's Jungle Inferno for you.

I prefer it that way, since it meant that founding out the meta wasn’t as quick or easy, and you didn’t see meta loadouts as often, both in TF2 and other shooters.

Most skilled players still do. A guide can only teach you mechanics and tools, they almost never can teach you how to mix someone up or get into their head. Adapt to someones tutorial stat and they won't know what to do.

“We’re very wary of keeping a class’s weaknesses” And then the Bushwhacka was born, removing the concept of “Weakens with proximity” by letting you deal full fucking crits for free to people who you’re supposed to have a hard time with. People complain about Kukri random crits but it’s like if that had a 100% crit rate when he throws a jar of piss or uses his cleaner’s carbine.

Thorought this video, i hear the echoes of the modern era, "heavy needs a rework!" Yet he used to have things SO much worse x_x This was awesome! Could you do an Evolution of Scout? I think the nerfs and buffs of his weapons play into that evolution

The update history of the heavy is the definition of a mixed bag, with an almost equal amount of positive and negative changes spread out through many years (which can be said about tf2 updates in general, Funny that heavy even embodys the update side of the game he represents) but I wholeheartedly believe that the chain ended on a highnote thanks to jungle inferno's minigun buffs and the second banana. I hope we see a dedicated heavy exclusive update someday but even if we don't I think heavy is in a okay spot as he is

Hell yeah Plok! Boss theme. I remember playing TF2 shortly before Love and War I had 10 years back then and now 20. It's always how you portrait the events of the updates with footage of back in the days, I didn't know a lot heavy before unlike the Pyro video. Good work👍

It's really interesting to watch the back-and-forth balancing of the Heavy since he's arguably the class most affected by the state of the game. I do think that makes it difficult to introduce new weapons to his playstyles which are already pretty niche. Still, I think it would be interesting if Valve introduced some other viable playstyle compared to needing a medic 24/7 or being a quick-switch in comp. I genuinely wouldn't know how to balance a new minigun but for secondaries, something like a new shotgun that ramped-up in damage and/or speed if you landed shots could require more skill to use while giving enemies some extra time to react compared to jump-revs which are annoying enough to face, especially with the heavy's movement tools like the GRU as you mentioned in the video. It would still reward your tracking skills which a good Heavy needs, and this could open up alternatives for miniguns that are more supportive, either for yourself or your team to make up for the lack of a portable medkit. It could also mean the creation of a primary more mobility-based (more so than the Tomislav) that needs to be paired with the shotgun to be properly useful. Definitely not a dev but there's such a weird line in balancing this class and you did an awesome job showcasing that. Looking forward to the future videos :)
