    Hey there all! There's been a lot of comments so far on this video saying "these weapons are actually really good in Medieval Mode/Degroot Keep!" While this may be true, I'd like to remind you all that a weapon's only positive use case being in a game mode where 90% of class abilities are stripped away and every player is put on nearly equal ground is, in fact, not a positive! That's like saying that someone is an MMA fighter because they beat a 6 year old in a boxing match. A weapon being good on Degroot Keep is NOT a boon to it and does, in fact, indicate exactly the opposite. I hope y'all enjoy the video either way!

    Also, some of these weapons are good in MvM, but they are extremely different both in terms of what you are doing (killing large groups of enemies vs killing at most 3-4 enemies that people go even against by definition) and, due to weapon upgrades, even with weapon balance. They're effectively different games.

    The conceptual use case for the Steak is the reason why it's banned in a couple of comp settings. It's a free speed boost that doesn't lower your base health. Plus it's still a medium healthpack for your medic which is what your sandvich is used for in 95% of situations

Nope, but as far as killing a clueless sniper on Doublecross it does the job pretty well.

    The Caber definitely sucks, but I will say the allure of the crit caber when using the Targe is a bit too much for my ape brain to pass up. A well time crit can kill a small chunk of the enemy team, and even one shot a heavy. I really wish the hit reg was better though, because timing that kind of play is really much harder than it needs to be.

    Funnily enough, the Buffalo Steak Sandvich *does* have a small niche outside of Medieval Mode, that being, when comboed with the Warrior's Spirit in MvM with max firing speed, it can be a shockingly good tank shredder. You'd be better shooting the robots, but if there's only a tank, it's better than shooting your minigun at it! Not like you're using your secondary and melee for much else, anyway.

    (I almost thought you didn't know about the lack of Charge Minicrits on the Caber, but thankfully not) Either way, I'm disappointed that Crit Shields were undersold when talking about The Caber. Despite the Caber Explosion being separate from the Melee itself, it still keeps the properties of being Crit boosted. As a result, when charging with a Crit Caber, it has the capability to one hit kill basically everything in the game with ~390 damage. Sure, it takes a lot of setup, and is very risky due to the reduced turns of the Crit Shields, but if you can get it work, it's very rewarding. Even to the people only getting impacted by the explosion, 150 damage is still scary to anyone in the blast radius of the Caber. It might not seem like much, but it can legitimately be threatening under the right circumstances.

    2:50 "One shot light classes" the Caber can one-shot a Heavy if you get the crit from charging. If you worry more about having fun and less about racking up a KDR, caberknight is actually ridiculously fun for this reason. I've completed entire Demoman contracts with caberknight. The Buffalo Steak is also not as bad as people say it is. It still has the supportive utility of the Sandvich while being an option to increase your movement speed without the health drain of the GRU or Eviction Notice (and is banned in competitive for this reason, as it makes Heavy's rollout insane). I've also had some genuine fun just using it as intended. It doesn't work on a more focused gamemode like Attack/Defend or Payload, but on a map that's very split up where everyone is more doing their own thing such as Banana Bay, you can go ham running people over with your melee before they can even react (which I ended up doing once to my own surprise and delight when I realized I left it on in place of the Sandvich when I'd neglected to swap off a meme loadout at once point.) Also it's useful in MvM for tankbusting. (Also the Warrior's Spirit damage vulnerability doesn't stack with the Buffalo Steak's damage vulnerability.) The Hot Hand, while yes almost entirely useless in most gamemodes, is genuinely good in VSH. The double slap lets you wall climb twice per swing, which is a huge boon to your mobility, and it's excellent as an escape option since the two swings give you two chances to hit Hale, and getting that knockback from hitting him is essential to making any form of escape, which the speed boost also helps with. So there is genuine utility there.

    How I would conceptually rework each weapon: Ullapool Caber: (Same damage stats and swing speed stats) -Explosion does increased knockback to you and enemy -Right click: throw the caber. Can be done with or without explosive charge. If detonated, deals mini crits to airborne targets. If a throw is hit, caber (with charge) recharges charges over 10 seconds. If miss, caber does not respawn at all and requires respawn locker. Gameplay effect: makes caber a high-risk combo tool that requires a bit of skill to use. If you miss, you have NO melee for the next interaction. If you hit, you can continue to combo after a small cooldown. Buffalo Steak Sandwich: (Speed unchanged) -Remove mini crits -100 total health added upon eating for duration of effect -Charge time increased to 60 seconds -Active passive: Eating the steak will lock you to melee for 10 seconds. During this time, you initially get a 75% damage reduction and knockback resistance. Upon taking damage, the damage reduction reduces until 30% damage vulnerability (think of pre nerf bfb speed reduction). Upon kill, speed bonus increases by 10% up to 50%; effect extends for 2 seconds upon kill and 40 health is gained Gameplay effect: Heavy now has a tool clear space around certain points of interest while being able to pick off light/weak classes. Risky, but can snowball if executed well. Hot hand: -Remove weird two hit combo thing and replace with lmb being normal slap and rmb being back hand. Atk speed and damage reduced to axtinguisher swing speed and damage -15% damage vulnerability while active -On lmb hit: fill the “pimp” meter. The higher the pimp meter, the more move speed pyro gets (up to 4 head demo whatever that is in hu). Max speed requires 4 hits -On rmb click: Exhausts the pimp meter fully, but melee does increased damage (1:1 dmg increase percentage to pimp bar ratio) Gameplay Effect: Snowball item, allows for pyros who take risks to gain buffs for using melee. If caught off guard, can exhaust buffs in exchange for burst of damage.

As an upside though, it should also offset the health drain with every hit you land on an enemy, and a set health replenish granted on every kill. So now, it isn't banned in competitive play, and has more synergy with its set weapons, getting even more health gain. Getting health back on every kill allows you to sustain yourself even better than the other food items in some situations. If you are in a bad spot where you're cornered, no other food item will save you. But with this, you can go on a suicidal rampage and potentially outlast the enemy.

    It's a golden rule that if something has a one time use, it should be consistent. The fact that the weapon has >explosive falloff They should just set it somewhere between 125 to 135 damage guaranteed and be done with it. Good enough to oneshot light classes, it's a one time use, and medics don't have to worry about being oneshot. No other bells and whistles.

    I think the reason the Hot Hand wasn't taken in as warmly as the other funni weapons (Market Gardener, Beggar's Bazooka, Bonk! Atomic Punch, etc.) was because it didn't really have any "OH MY GOD!" factor. The Critical Hit! sound from Market Gardening and that 100% kill on 7/9 classes made Trolldier good. The in-character feeling of being pressed against a wall, so you haphazardly throw three rockets into the clip and somehow kill everyone made Beggar's good. Bonk! is just silly. Hot Hand brings legitimately nothing to the table. It just... is.

    How to make the steak viable : >switch the 20% damage vulnerability to a 20% damage resistence >immunity from crits and minicrits upon eating Melee limiting weapons should only give you buffs , being limited in range is a crazy nerf on a class , range is one of the most important things in a fight : it's why sniper is soo strong , it can just deal max damage instantly even from max distance , while every other class will be unable to do so ... Mobility is also another big one , and heavy isn't it ... So yeah give the poor heavy resistence to crits and damage resistence , like imagine the terror a sniper will feel afther seeing they have to fire three fully charged shots to take the heavy out , it could also stuff the kritzkrieg , or demoknights ... It would turn the heavy in an unstoppable wall from wich all must run away or try to knock back , Lets also not forget : regular damage would still work , it would take 4 pipes to kill the heavy , or 4 rockets , or three seconds from a sentry , or an heavy ... It would make a medic necessary still , but it could have a usecase i reckon ...

    I know the caber is bad, but going full caberknight with either the charge 'n targe or the splendid screen and turning yourself into an (unreliable) ballistic missile is just way too much fun. And with some good timing and luck you can insta kill a group of people, especially on payload or cp maps. The amount of times where I charged a heavy, instantly deleted him off of the map and killed/severely wounded his teammates that used him as a meatshield makes it worth it for me (also charging into a nest and killing the engineer before his sentry can turn to shoot you is also incredibly funny)

    I will admit that the steak has better options, but it is still my main Heavy secondary. I combine it with the fists of steel and just cause people to panic as they tend to forget about the damage resistance of the fists. It also freaks them out when you run as fast as them. However, I also main with the Brass Beast, so I don't normally play with a "good" loadout.

    I feel like while being a reskin the holy mackerel is a successfully meme weapon, A scout choosing to finish somebody off with their melee over their much better primaries already feels humiliating and that melee being a stinky fish enhances that. I think the weapon also has a weird allure that makes Scouts REALLY want those fish kills. Adding cause it's related to the Hot Hand comment, back before the Dead Ringer speed boost I found melee killing spies with the fish & having that kill feed information gave me handy information for whether I should throw down mad milk or not. These days the information is very nice but way more niche. Overall I prefer the atomizer but have considered buying a unusual fish. Despite all it's downsides I like the idea behind the buffalo steak despite it falling flat on its face, definitely a worse weapon contender. I think the health on kill idea is great along side changing the +20% damage taken to a +20% damage resistance and allowing Heavies to cancel out the weapons effects by pulling out their primary. I've seen some Demomen preform well with the caber but it's definitely in a sorry state. I use to use the weapon on stock demoman as a last resort in close encounters but the pull out speed ruins that these days. I think the weapon would benefit from better damage overall, stronger explosive damage and even a long recharge time to restore it that could be sped up by getting 2 to 3 melee kills. Hothand is in the game, I have never used it, the speed boost on hit reminds me of the old eviction notice. Thanks for the upload & thank you for reading.

    I just use Buffalo Steak because I go around punching people pretending to be Saxton Hale. What would I do to improve it? Upgrade speed boost to Scout speed, Instead of 20% vulnerability, give it 20% resistance, 1 hp regen per sec, Heavy gets increased punch speed, Gain 100% melee lifesteal, You can switch back to your primary but you lose the buffs. This might seem very strong, but the idea of this change is to become a melee monster that has to fight to heal, and if you want to heal, the other lunchbox items will do that better. The buff cancel by switching to the primary is so that Heavy isn’t defenseless if he runs into certain enemies that he can't deal with in melee. This would probably cause a little issue in VSH or Medieval Mode, but that's two alternative modes out of god knows how many total modes. I would however remove the ability to throw it, or at least lower the hp value from medium to small.

    A crit boosted Caber dose around 420 damage. If there is a pocketed heavy on a point under sustained fire, charging in with a shield that isn't the Tide Turner and the Caber can almost 1 shot the guy. The caber is pretty much useless beyond that though This last thing may not be too useful, but a close range shotgun hit can put a light class at just enough health to slap kill them.
