I'd use Degreaser more often but I'm absolutely smitten with my flamethrower skin and I feel I need the extra few airblasts because I reflect obsessively. There's just so much spam in your average 12v12 game and ammo packs aren't guaranteed like people think they are, especially on certain maps.

Stock is by far the best flamethrower, you can do all the combos just the same including flare punch enemy pyros. Degreaser also neuters your after burn damage in exchange for giving combo pyro training wheels. Good pyros don't need the degreaser or its downsides

Personally, I would only recommend using the Axtinguisher if you're running a low-damage or utility secondary like the Detonator, the Scorch Shot, or the jetpack because the Axtinguisher provides burst damage for finishing targets off. If you're using a shotgun of choice or the Flare Gun then your secondary already performs the burst damage job. The one time when I would recommend pairing the Axtinguisher with another burst damage weapon is when you want to hunt unaware Heavies as a Pyro for some reason. And as much as I love my Strange Specialized Killstreak Festive Axtinguisher, the Powerjack and the Backscratcher are better than it in, like, 90% of cases when you're playing offensively.

I don't think utility based doesn't apply to the scorch shot. The scorch shot is too easy to use to rack up damage.

I know its a super minor thing that often goes unnoticed, but THANK YOU for taking the time to add subtitles to each of your pyro videos.

I just got tf2 last week and only have 30 hours. Stock and dragon fury are the only flamethrowers I have and after watching this I can really feel the slow switch speed, can’t wait until I find a degreaser

I like blending together the combo and flank playstyle, using the detonator as a flanking tool, and the axtinguisher as my combo weapon

I've been watching your content, and may I just say I think you're exactly what the Pyro main community needs. I think you can do for Pyro what Uncle Dane did for Engie. Keep up the good work!

@andrehashimoto8056

I like Pyro, and it's clear the equip combos make or break it as much as any class of TF2 (e.g: go try Heavy with the Brass beast set, a deffensive Minigun with a Lunchbox geared towards flanker/ambusher melee rush with a melee that MASSIVELY WORSENS the damage Vulnerability the Steak applied onto you, every class has some crap combos, Pyros are no exception). What i actually see the Phlog do is be an Option for highly offensive Pyros (eschew support duties (aside Spychecking), go frontline flanker/ambusher to deal punishing blows), the Scorch shot simply is TOO GOOD a synergy with it for most players, good or bad, difference being good players make Phlog tactics work with any other flamethrower, yet i can still see that ANY alternative to a phlog has to readjust the method, Combo pyro (degreaser + Flare or PA) needs to flank, then attack and combo burst the target, but he cannot deal with more than 2 foes, so target flexibility decreases (against a Payload cart with 5-7 enemies it's 100% suicide, a Phlog can burn at least 3-4 of them and massively drain everyone else's HP, even more with a pocket medic ubering him at the right moment), flanker pyros (if using backburner, but most flanker strategies can be run with any flamethrower) will need to run ambush where a Phlog can WM1 (both are situations experienced players WILL take notice and prepare accordingly depending on what the enemy pyros seem to be geared with and they know of) and is just as likely to fail or end earlier thanks to players taking notice of the Pyro , a backburner will usually end 1-2 foes if played smart, a Phlog will be the same unless some of the pushing foes took some damage from your side. Phlog is tbh a pyro weapon meant to be used specifically to either hardblock a cart being pushed by a lot of the enemy team, block a cap of a point entirely through flanking or surprise WM1 attack (a pocket medic ubering is also desirable) or deliver a heavy flank. Phlog lives and dies in the attack, trying it on a more deffensive play is rather suicidal (deffense is where Degreaser or stock should be used instead of Phlog), flanker Pyro is also one of the methods for a Phlog to excel, flank, then deploy it right behing enemy frontmost force is.

Personally the scorch shot is by far the most fun combo weapon the pyro has, the stun and knock back lend themselves up for set ups or funny moments, the bounce can be used for sync jumps which I believe put higher than the detonator but I could be wrong, it gives you the fastest ttk on a heavy with the axtinguisher with a direct hit and two melees, and gives you an option during lulls in fights where their isn't anything going on. Don't get me wrong, the scorch shot doesn't require skill if you want to use it to spam a choke but all of the classes can do that exact same thing. It's how it's used in other ways which gives it its flare gunnyness.

You still get the faster switch speed to it, basically a better shotgun as if you need more then 4 shots you ár doing something wrong.

I blend together Flank and Offensive playstyles I am too bad at aiming flares and defensive playstyle is too boring for me, so i use Dragon's Fury with a Detonator

These videos are the kind of that I'm looking for! Great explanation and editing! I was searching for months for reflect guides, detonator jumps or other things, but found nothing really good or easy for me to understand. Pyro used to be my second favourite class, but after I found nothing on how to really improve I dropped him and started playing Spy and Demo more. Now I can't wait to hop into the game and start practice Pyro again! Thank you for lighten up the flame for me! You earned a new sub!

Looking forward to your future content, the quality of your videos is amazing and I genuinely learn so much from them even after a 100 hours in pyro

WOAH!!! Thanks man, i've been trying to get the hang of combo pyro for a while now and this guide is *really* helpful. Can't wait to see more of your stuff bro.

I'm so glad this popped up in my recommend, your videos are great

I personally use mwheelup for primary, mwheeldown for melee, and F for secondary, it works wonders on all classes. Suprised more ppl dont use this setup

I love ur videos dude, the detonator guide really helped me get into using it for SOO much more! Keep up the good work man!

I commonly use Degreaser, Detonator and the Axtinguisher by default. I can't live without the mobility the Detonator provides. But, depending on the game flow especially defending on last or to avoid getting steamrolled, I go Pybro with Stock, Detonator/Scorch, and Homewrecker. Kinda weird but I don't feel like using shotties with a Pyro.

Finally! Somebody who makes videos on Pyro! My personal play style is a mix of defense and combo with a bit of flanking. I just like being able to check for spy's while roaming around and killing at close range. I also use the stock because I like air lasting a lot.

Eyyy lets goo, tsym for taking my request! I love playing pyro and your content really helps me improve. And for diagram that you shown at the start of the video, I’m probably a combo pyro with the degreaser, detonator and the axtinguisher. While swapping to defensive to airblast ubers. Great video btw, music is good with the sections they go with and the gameplay fits pretty well as well.

I wish more ppl would be subscribed to u, ur content is actualy very entertaining :)

I only got tf2 recently, and I've always wanted to have pyro as my main, the idea of taking the entire enemy team by suprise and lighting them all up is addicting. I don't buy weapons in the game so I rely on random weapon drops, my first three drops for pyro? Degreaser, flare gun, axetinguisher. I subsequently see this as fate, and I must dedicate myself to learning the ways of the combo pyro. Thank you for this very helpful and informative video 🙏🙏🙏

10/10 would watch again. From one pyro main to another that was an amazing video

Love ur videos man keep up the great work!

Nice video gamer, keep up the great work 👍

I was around for the glory days of the OG degreaser and Axtinguisher combo, my main was degreaser, shottie/flare (depending on the range requirements of the map), and the Axtinguisher. This was before they got nerfed, it was criminal and hilariously fun. I've returned after a long break and I'm watching this video to get back into my Pyro main, this is a nice refresher course. As been playing around with all the new weapons and whatnot.

i remember you from that snowycoast match! i was casually watching this because why not, and i see myself in the video, what?! this is some good stuff man, keep it up! looking forward for the next videos :>

your helpful guides are making me better at tf2 pyro thank you

Thank you for the tips keep up your hardwork

Nice video, I see that your editing is good quality and shows that you have extensive knowledge about Pyro. The only thing I would add to it would be talking about the Dragons Fury/Scorch shot combo, it's quite underrated and very powerful. There's a youtuber called Lister that has some good videos about it and I think it could change the meta in the future if it gets more attention.

i think it got nerfed & thats why

I'll have to try some of these out. I normally don't do a lot of comboing. I've been using my stock flamethrower and scorch shot/shotgun depending on if I need spam or burst damage. It might be time to learn flare gun and panic attack combos.

holy cow this video is well made, i wonder why doesn't have so many views

Cool video! :)

Ur probably one of the reasons why i actually started to play a bit more Pyro then before

Nice video!

thx for the pyro tips :)

Awesome video. One thing i have to say to newer combo pyros is to not avoid the shotguns, i understand hitting flares is cool and you may think shotguns are lame and unskillful but they are really good and really fun to use once you get the hang of it. I personally prefer the panic attack (though i have been using stock way more recently) and I haven't tried the reserve but it seems good so ill give it a shot eventually.

He made another video!! Let's Gooooooo!!!

3:53 "Where with any other secondary, you will just die immediatly (when fighting heavy point blank) Honestly, an underutilized combo that I've seen takes out heavies fairly reliably is degreaser (30~) to flare (90) to axting (100) to degrease (30~) to flare or axting (90-100) while strafing around the front and crouch jumping over and under the heavy is a good way to mess with the enemies tracking, while keeping up the high damage potential if you can get to the heavy before they see you, whether they're revved or not, I have found this is a good, reliable way to kill the enemy gamer

Finally. Someone who knows that the Reserve Shooter is useable on pyro. I am quite fond of the weapon (although I mostly use it on Soldier). But the benefits you listed perfectly sums up why I like it. Fast switch speed, doesn't have the large bullet spread, and situational mini-crits. The missing 2 clips does sting at times though. Anyways, very good video! I dont play Pyro often but I always enjoyed the offensive/combo playstyle. For a while I thought Pyro was a underwhelming/weak class, but watching this makes me wanna play him more. :)

Great video

pyro is a class that i least played. thanks for this video, mate

Before watching this video, I played the Backburner and the jetpack on Pyro. I had barely positive K/Ds and only on a good day would I get a domination. After watching this video, I equipped the Degreaser, Panic Attack, and the Homewrecker (I love having my Pybro moments lol). The first game I joined, I finished it with four dominations and an MVP. Thanks Pirateer! 🔥

this man made memes and now makes some of the best pyro tutorials

Thanks so much, i just traded for a degreaser and a flare gun and I can't wait to start comboing

Nice one

As a pyro who uses the Detonator for combo Pyro, it’s not as bad as it seems. The burst damage is low, but it’s surprisingly good. The midair detonations can help with landing shots if you miss, or ignite multiple people at once. It seems like a bad pick but if you use it in tandem with the axetinguisher or the backscratcher, it’s still a solid pick. The added mobility boost is also really nice, especially if you’re an expert at detonator jump tech. Try it, ya might like it.

I'd use stock over the Degreaser as I feel like the faster weapon switch doesn't very much come to play as I use the panic attack as the secondary for my offensive loatout and don't feel like it's sacrificing a few airblast isn't worth it for as I'm a relativity a new pyro-main who just hit 100 hours on the game. I'm not the best at airblasting and need all of the chance I can get to deal with soldiers or demonman or help putting out teammates on fire.
