4:53 "Fight me" - aight. Let me give it a shot. The Spy > Pyro take is one of the worst ones i've seen in a couple of years. Outside of 6s (where you can ARGUE spy's situational role is more rewarding) there's no possible way in God's green earth he's better than pyro. Taking your points: - "Spy is hard-countered only by pyro". No, spy is hard-countered by anyone in team with a brain. If anyone turns around and see the spy, they call him out, their team spam him out and he's dead. If he does get a kill, he WILL die afterwards nonetheless. Why? Cause he sucks if the enemy is coordinated. -"Pyro has a bad match-up against nearly everyone"...so does spy? Pyro at the very least has a shotgun, 175hp and airblast - in any DM scenario, he does better than spy. "Oh, but spy shouldn't fight ppl upfront" - so shouldn't pyro. He is best played when glued to another teammate so he can deny enemy damage and contribute with consistent DPS. Yeah, it's boring as shit being a limited support class, but at the very least i am one of the most capable of holding my ground when some cocky soldier wants to get on the point i'm guarding. Would i change the class too? Absolutely (specially his flamethrower), but it does have its merits. "Dragon's Fury sucks in practice" - Yes. Specially if you compare him to other power classes since that's what the class is "supposed" to become.

@Mixxium

Yeah, pyro is really good, even in 6's you can't argue spy is better because pyro is more common and can actually contribute to a fight. Spam from flares and reflects are dangerous, and afterburn is nasty on healing. One good reflect can turn an entire push, and discourage soldiers from shooting at your direction at all. I think people just cling to the fact that pyro can be annoying to fight, and doesn't have great range, but the flare gun is plenty enough, and it's far more annoying to get deleted by an enemy you can't fight or flank.

Pyro on defense is kinda ridiculous even if he is a bit mediocre at offense. The offense need to be offensive to win.

Another idea to think about: what if instead of each class getting a weapon slot for each distinct weapon type, they got their current weapon slots, and then an extra one that you can equip literally any weapon for that class into? For example: Soldier could equip the Rocket Jumper to his 4th to get insane mobility without sacrificing his primary slot's damage output, or take a shotgun and banner for the versatilty you listed here. Engineer could take the Widowmaker for regular shotgun and use the Frontier Justice should his sentry get taken down, or put the Gunslinger in his 4th to make mini sentries while still getting Jag bonuses. Heavy can equip two lunchboxes and still get his Minigun, or take two miniguns for different situations.

I think a year or so ago Blue called Engie the weakest class in one of his videos, which seemed odd to me even then, because if nothing else you can always run around as a worse Scout with 150 HP, while Spies are heavily depending on the enemy team's lack of experience doing most of the heavy lifting. For a new player dropping into one of the more sweaty servers like Uncletopia it'd be likely more easy to generate some value as a Spy than Pyro or Engie, simply because even the worst Spy will get the odd stab if they flank enough, but that's about it.

4:52 Ya wilding and out of line with that take 😂. Especially considering how easy it is to counter spy, even the classes he's supposed to "counter" clap him with some common sense, like engy and sniper. But atleast it's gonna make an interesting video discussion(please do make a video about why you think Pyro us worse class then spy, it's gonna be super interesting to hear your thoughts on it) Although I'll give you props for acknowledging Engy is hard counter to Pyro, far too many ignore this and pretend as if only scouts complain about Engy and how scouts should just deal with it when engy hard counters both scout and pyro on top of countering all goofy classes like trolldier 😢

Honestly gives me a neat idea for a modded gamemode, where everyone spawns with a pickax as their melee (just the model, it would function as a stock melee). Then there would be rock props around the map your team could mine, then take their haul back to their base to exchange for new weapons or permanent buffs. It could function like an RTS mixed with, obviously, an FPS. Maybe you could even spawn minions in the form of robots (or just bots) to send to your enemy's base. The actual objective could be to destroy your enemy's base (either through using Payload Race maps, or having a prop you need to deal damage to at each base).

Fun video, but MANN are you sleeping on airblast if you genuinely think pyro is weaker than spy. It hard counters soldier and demo, the most popular classes in casual, and literally half of the team in a 6s game, and is the only ability in the entire game that has any meaningful way to consistently interact with ubers. A pyro can completely negate an uber push with relative ease. Any class with an ability that can counter the most powerful ability in the game can't even be considered for any serious discussion of who the weakest class is.

Wow, you're telling me that demoman, an already incredibly broken class, is broken with more weapon slots? Shocker.

Heavy and Medic getting extra slots would be a nice addition. Shotguns aren't *that* useless for Heavy (maybe a Spy catches you running back to the frontlines idk) and Medic being able to use the Overdose for movements speed or the Blutsauger to use as a minor healing item for running away. Also I say the Short Circuit and the Wrangler should share the same slot. Giving a "utility" slot could help depending on the mode/map.

Blue, I legit spent a half-hour trying to search where those coordinates are. I ultimately landed on “Reskin Elementary School.” *You made me waste time just for the sake of an in-joke.”* Clever bastard, and I say that out of respect.

Phlog wipes teams in seconds. Detonator/Scorch Shot by themselves chip away at light classes and Medics. Airblast shuts down mindless projectile spam. Thermal Thruster lets you dive almost anyone you want. Spy is almost always obsoleted by Sniper (for instant picks) or power classes (for destroying Engie nests).

2 things to note: 1. With the base jumper being a back pack and it’s use button being the space bar, you could argue it would be in the banner slot instead of the shoe slot. This doesn’t mean much for soldier, but it would make demo even more OP by allowing him to negate fall damage and have permanent 200 hp. Combine this with the eyelander and… *Jesus.* 2. There’s a serious case to be made for the gunslinger as, while it’s still a wrench, it’s the only ones of Engi’s items that gives him a new building and changes his fundamental gameplay. Having 25 more hp and a disposable sentry like in MVM would make offensive engineer the bane of everyone’s existence, especially if you also give him his pistol for mid range harassment.

i'd say the case for the gunslinger is same for the direct hit, which gives the soldier a new rocket launcher, the loch 'n load, which gives the demo a new grenade launcher, the enforcer, which gives the spy a new revolver, or the etc. etc. etc.. even if the gunslinger giving you "a new building" is on the surface a lot spicier than equipping a weapon over stock giving you that new weapon ... it's still just kinda replacing stock with a new thing that still fundamentally functions like stock but has distinct traits. neither of the two engie melees that change his buildings do anything more unique than just making the slot double as the loadout slot for alternate buildings the one major exception is how it's one slot, but there are _two_ building slots that can be swapped out depending on the melee. so there's _something_ to allowing use of both the gunslinger and the eureka effect, but any other wrench and your build menu would look like you were just running the gunslinger solo

me beforre watching the video: spy will change literally nothing. me after watching the video: see? nothing. but as a pyro main, the idea of not having to choose what I want in my second slot because I already have both the jetpack and the detonator ready available sounds so broken I am actually terrified. oh, and also the gas passer is there, so it's a positive for the gas passer I guess. I mean, at least now it don't handicap you.

i feel like the ranking went from "how much stronger the class would be compared to how it currently is" to "how strong the class would be in this hypothetical scenario" halfway through the video, sure engie wouldn't be the strongest class overall but letting him use both the wrangler and the short circuit at the same time would give him much more than just a decent improvement

One problem I noticed is that splitting the Banners and Base Jumper makes Soldier have 2 Back Weapons in different slots, thus making the Base Jumper unequipable as you always have a Banner. So instead of "Banners" and "Passive", it should be "Backpack" and "Boots", with the Base Jumper being grouped with the Banners, while keeping the Gunboats and Mantreads together. For consistency, this should also apply to Demo, splitting "Passive" into both "Backpack" and "Boots", but it's not neccecary and probably over the top as there's only 1 for each (not counting a reskin). But then again, you did the same for Pyro.

I think you got lazy on spy to be honest, its function is completely different to the other watches to the point that the only similarity is that it lets the spy turn invisible, like how compared to the sniper rifles the huntsman's only likeness is that it can headshot. Having the ability to fake death and turn invisible when you want makes it a million times easier to get behind enemy lines whilst still having an escape tool, you've basically got a DR full time whilst also having the utility of the invis-watch. Also I don't think the Claidheamh Mòr would actually be the go-to for the 5 slot demo, considering you aren't really hybrid-knighting, you're a full demoknight with all the benefits of the boots, you're basically playing both demoman and knight at the same time with none of the drawbacks, if anything the Claidheamh Mòr might even be the worst sword to use since it doesn't really shine as much when you have the boots. I'd say the half-zatoichi or eyelander would be the go-tos, but pretty much any of the swords would have play other than the persian persuader, the age of the big butterknife would be over since it wouldn't really offer that much benefit for leeching all your primary and secondary ammo.

I would like to mention that the BASE Jumper is in the Primary Weapon slot for Demo meaning that he would have 6 slots

@artifactU

6 күн бұрын

so are the booties & great blue considers both of those to be passives, tho its argueable that the base jumper should get its own backpack slot

Just an Idea: First, for your "Fixing Spies Bad Weapons" video, the Red Tape Recorder should have a mechanic were it's slower to sap than stock, but the more buildings your sapping the faster it works. So sapping 1 or 2 buildings is slower than stock, 3 is like 10% faster, and 4+ is much faster than stock. It would allow you to deal with large Engie nests.

Pyro being able to run degreaser, flare gun, panic attack, and axtinguisher would just about buff combo pyro back to its 2015 state.

I really like these "what if" videos. It's super fun to think about how it would impact the whole game, well... for most classes. I have to say tho, I thought of something else reading your title, tbh. Still a great video.

"Pyro is weaker than spy" Meanwhile pyro gets 6 slots for how many ways you can change his role, spy gets the standard 3. Great Blue youre smarter than this.

Love this video format. Keep it up Blue! We all love your content.

When it comes to hypothetically giving Heavy an extra slot, in my opinion the usefulness of the shotgun isn't from switching to it being faster than revving up, but from not slowing your move speed and still being able to fight outside of melee range. Sometimes you can't really rev up the minigun and do damage without dying because you're a sitting duck, but with the shotgun you can actually move around and either run away, dodge, or just jump on something. As someone who plays a lot of unironic shotgun heavy (not fatscout although that's also fun) I suggest you give it a try, the shotgun really lets you be more versatile in a fight, because sometimes you just need that 70% move speed or whatever heavy has.

Great video! The fact what it gets completely cut off from 4:52 to 4:55 is bizarre though.

Conch is way more valuable because of how quickly it fills, and consequently how much more often you get to use it compared to other 2 banners

Hey, great video!! I've thought and complained about this 3-slot limitation oh so many times!!

One thing you didn't consider when giving Pyro both the Shotgun and the Flare gun and Jetpack is that in a good hand, you would just be like playing Doom. A decently good Pyro could just jump in flame and then flare then shotgun and it would instantly deal more then a light class health and instantly kill them.

Some of these seem like they'd be more streamlined if it were kept to Primary, secondary weapon/gun, Utility item, melee Like for Soldier got a rocket launcher, a shotgun, then your pick of boots or backpack Demo keeping similar where both launcher and stickies, then utility of a shield or boots then melee Engie Primary shotguns, Pistols, Utility (Wrangler/short circuit (The short Circuit is more of a utility item to sacrifice resources to protect your buildings or yourself/team like a disposable mini building tbh ) ) then melee and the pdas. Sniper is over bloated should have just Rifle/bow, smg, Utility (Jarate or backpacks) then melee. having access to every category at once seems a bit too much and overly complicated. Or heck just go bonkers crazy and make weapon loadouts be like cosmetics pick any 3, wanna go Sticky jumper, beggars and a shotgun? Be kooky with no melee to fall back on but it'd be something weird like a pick your own randomizer

I have long awaited this video, and pondered this question even longer. That being said, a very aggressive pyro loadout of the Dragon's fury, scorchshot, panic attack and backscratcher would go hard i think

these kinds of videos are always so interesting, though one that i'd perhaps like to see would be 'what weapon/item type(s) could you give/adapt to a different class that would most create a new distinct playstyle for them', like if heavy could maybe equip demo's shields, or medic could build dispensers?

I think the two that absolutely would benefit the most from this is heavy and ESPECIALLY pyro.

The mad milk and jarate combo would be insanely annoying to be the target of

One small thing that gets ignored with the syringe guns is that if you know how to use the arc right you can shower engie nests in needles at such a pace that by the time the engineers realize what's happening, though you can in general use it for a lot of things in terms of making a cloud of moderate damage on enemies who don't have line of sight to you, that's the most consistent one. Of course, it's niche and demands a lot of practice and understanding of the projectile physics before it becomes particularly useful, so of course no one is gonna learn the neat but niche needle gun party trick when they could learn the much more useful and consistent "just use the crossbow as intended" trick. I think similar to Heavy's shotguns we might see a lot of new usage cases come up simply by eliminating the opportunity cost of running the much more relevant and on-meta items. Also I think Engineer should've gotten his two "Rifles" split into their own category. Even if they have the same loading/firing mechanic the single projectiles feel very fundamentally different to the shotguns, and considering it means being able to use the Rescue Ranger + a weapon that threatens at mid/close range that can matter a ton. I'd say considering the previous point on opportunity cost the Pomson even becomes situationally useful (not by any means good but better than useless) on tighter indoors maps or situations where you have to fight more spies if you don't need to give up a shotgun for it.

Yo! I really wanted to talk about this in a video too, but never thought of a proper way to introduce this and even discuss. It seemed impossible to objectively rate how each class would do. I think you nailed it very well! So great job, Blue!

Weapon reskins have always been a strange case to me on one hand if you like how a weapon works but hate how it looks its nice to have another option to choose from. But on the other hand not every reskin is necessarily better that the weapon its replacing, so sometimes theres no point in even using them. Hehehe okay sorry i couldnt resist starting a video like that. Yeah so with weapon reskins becoming sort of a meme on my channel for some reason what better way to end the year than giving a comprehensive break down of all the reskins in the game. And by that i mean just telling you wich ones i think are the best because theres not really much to objectively break down that i have in another video already so what im going to do is im going to through every reskin in the game compare it to counterpart and pick wich version i think is better. At the end ill tell you how many times the reskins won vs the normal versions and that way we can definitively decide wheter weapon reskins are better than stock. As for how im going to handle warpaints and festives and what not im lumping those under the normal weapon category instead of counting them as their own type of reskin. You might think that would tip the balance in favor of the stock weapons significantly but trust me when i say they need all the help the can get. And the last thing before i begin i feel the need to reiterate that this is just my opinion and the points are more for fun instead of being super serious. I would still love to hear your opinions in the comments if you disagree but theres no reason to get mad at mine. Heeeeeeeeeeeee okay lets go. - Great Blue - What is TF2's Best Weapon Reskin? - 0:00 - 1:12 - Intro

I think you underestimate how important the choice between the overdose and the crossbow is, as running them both with the quick-fix would make you a fast healer at all ranges and be extremely fast because your über recharges fast.

Though obviously the POINT is to break the game's balance, part of me thinks a fourth "Utility Slot" could be neat for the majority of the classes without being unbalanced. Soldier throwing the Boots, Banners, and Base Jumper into the utility so you can choose between mobility or party support Scout choosing between his drinks or throwables for more damage or sustain in 2 different forms. and maybe having the Cleaver still take the Secondary slot as a damaging secondary weapon. Pyro choosing between Gas Passer and Jetpack (though gas passer is kinda just bad so it's just a jetpack slot) While keeping Flareguns as a Secondary option since it's a Damage option Heavy would ADORE the option to use a lunchbox and would be the perfect change. Demo getting a unique Shield Slot to add onto their abilities. Granted admittedly though it would still break the game. Engineer is awkward since yea it'd fall down to basically that, though we could say that his PDA's cover utility anyway. Medic: Medic is weird since.... I really like your idea, though my particular paradigm of "Utility" kinda falls apart under this definition, seeing as I defined "utility" as primarily non-damaging (or not directly damaging). Sniper would choose between the Backpacks and Jarate, and the Bow would count under Primaries. Spy wouldn't really change at all.

You said to save it for the next video so I won't go too deep on this but I truly don't understand the Pyro take at all, looking forward to your video on it to try and figure out where you're coming from

Heavy: Shotgun and Sandvich Soldier: Gunboats and Painis Spy: Literally no change

This honestly feels like what you would get if you ported the mercs into Overwatch or Paladins - each non-gun being it’s own “ability” so to speak.

scout with force of nature kritacola and any pistol would be insane, thae krit FON combo would deal insane damage and if that doesnt kill the enamy and knockbacks them too far away for a second shot you can just pistol down whatever little health they have left over

I really like the concept, please consider doing an experiment

I like the concept. Enjoyable content as usual

"Keep crying. It won't stop the burning" is such a douchey for the scorch shot. lmao

8:23 I wanna add something to this matter: Yes, you may be right, that it wont 100% fix all of Heavy's problems, but him having 4TH SLOTS is still a major buff, let me explain: Imagine youre playing a stock Heavy, with a Minigun and a Shotgun. Youre role is too deal damage to a group of enemies, while having some type of support from YOURE team, Medic's, Engi's and health packs aswell. The Minigun is great at dealing damages to multiple targets once youre reveed up! But what do you do, when youre in a 1v1 fight position (lets say with a Scout, or Soldier or a Pyro), away from youre team and away from youre health packs (and other type of healing sources) ? a Shotgun of course! since its a good close range weapon that doesnt have to be reveed up! It all sounds great... Untill youre left with low health, and no mobility whatsoever. If you remember that Heavy's "Massive Health Pool" is his only type of survivability (at least thats what TF2 WIKI says about classes survivability, i cant find where specifically, but found out about that in a video called "TF2 - THE HEAVY DESERVES A FOURTH SLOT" by PO10TIAL), and when you dont have a Sandwich on you, nor a Medic or a health kit (like weve established before), with such slow movement speed... its basically over for you. But then, you decide to equip the Sandwich, problem solved with health issues! right ? weeell... you forgot that now you dont have a Shotgun. Wich basically makes it impossible to defend youself alone with a 1 specific enemy (scout, soldier, ect). Before you get a change to rev youre minigun you might aswell be dead. (At least most of the time). And then youre only option is to choose THE TOMISLAV, wich is good at 1 specific type of enemy, with his faster spin up time and no barrel spin sound! that will surelly fix the problem- ohhhh... Right... Noooow youre not as efficient with a GROUP of ENEMIES. Youre basically good at dealing damage to a 1 specific type of class, aaand you get to heal yourself with youre sandwich... BUT because of that slower firing speed, and of its thinner spread range (yes, it actually has a thinner range than a normal minigun has, it is shown in "Weapon Demonstration: Tomislav" video by OfficialTF2Wiki) you'll be less effective against well... a huge group of enemies. thats a problem im sure most Heavys have. You cant be effective at a GROUP OF ENEMIES, a 1 SPECIFIC TYPE OF ENEMY (wich i mean a 1v1 fight of course), and HAVE YOURE SANDWICH AT THE SAME TIME. but AFTER heavy gets that 4TH SLOT, everything changes! NOW you'll be able to deal damage at group of enemies with youre Minigun, have youre massive health thanks to the Sandwich (or Second Banana), AND you can be effective in a 1v1 situation alone with youre Shotgun! you see my point here now?

First thing I thought of when talking about Soldier, was an airstrike build The Airstrike Stock Shotty Buff Banner B.A.S.E Jumper Market Gardener Would shit myself if I heard Buff Banner activate and see eight mini-crockets flying at me ong

Idea for new gamemode, that includes this concept: Mercenaries vs Army (I couldn't come up with better name at the moment)! 9 Black/Brown/Purple/Gray (haven't decided on the color yet) team Mercs *(each member is one separate class)* with all the slots mentioned here + MvM revival box and ability to purchase MvM upgrades for money dropped from dead enemies vs either standart or 32 player count (may even depend on objective) regular classes as an army. Objective could either be any other objective from all other gamemodes (except Saxton mode, because it would be Saxton vs 9 Mercs) or their combination, as I didn't came up with unique objective for this gamemode.

So an Engiener could have a Rescue Ranger, Wrangler, Short Circuit and the Jag at the same time. Fun. Full Demoknights who can still use Loch n Load is also a disgusting thought.

Actually with a food slot I could see the panic attack or family business become very good options for heavy , especially if your main weapon is say something like the brass beast you have a damage now option without giving up your healing or team support

i might put base jumper in with the banners as a shared "backpack" slot both because it makes sense stylistically and you wouldnt be able to equip both at once regardless unless you removed the restriction that prevents equipping multiple items on one part of the body (e.g. no bootlegger and storm stompers at the same time)

I would totally play a 60 player custom server with this mod on it, this would be absolutely SICK to play!!! 🔥🔥🔥

I'd still give most of the classes 4 weapon slots and have the player choose between an active option, say like the mad milk, or a passive like the backpacks. In heavy's case it's a great opportunity to give him a variety of non damage oriented secondaries that could grant him more mobility options or things to help his teammates like by helping them with ammo or something else

dude, nice video idea. looking forward to this video

What heavy needs is more diverse primaries, for example the anti artillery cannon from TF2 Classic. Moderate damage, weak splash damage (which at least allows him to shoot around corners so that way he has even ground against demo and soldiers) and fires slowly. Or maybe a new primary item that replaces the mini gun with an assault vest which buffs the shotgun or lunchbox item when equipped. Diversity is what heavy is missing. All his guns are just bullets.
