Ranking Every Single Weapon in TF2

[goth (real)]

I decided to try and make a tier list for all weapons in tf2 since I already did one with soldier. So here it is. Keep in mind this is all my opinion and I am not even that good. Tiers are based off both casual AND comp. Obviously not doing reskins

**OPINION ALERT**

To start though, im going to rank the classes.

TF2 Classes

S - Medic

A - Soldier, Scout, Demo

B - Sniper, Engineer

C - Heavy, Spy, Pyro

Keep in mind this is based off both casual and comp gamemodes. Slashes (___/___) mean that I think they are equal.

[Hmoorkin]

I disagree

[trash]

solid

swap backscatter with bfb
panic attack/fb on heavy should be on par with the bar
jag and gunslinger should be switched
move hothand to § tier

^this, pretty much. Also move Pretty Boy's Pocket Pistol to S tier, move KGB to B.

Other than that pretty good list.

GEEZ THIS TOOK A WHILE TO WRITE OUT

[Oliver #MAGA]

To start, I find that Heavy should at least be moved up to B tier. I'll be getting to the other parts I disagree with, but that'll wait for later. Not a bad list, by the way.

[Emurinus]

There's a few I disagree with but for the most part it's pretty solid. I'll give out a list of what I disagee with later on.

[DoctorSchrocken]

Put the gas passer further below. The scorch shot does the same thing but applys afterburn on hit, has direct damage, has knockback and has a shirt reload. Even the manmelter at least can do damage more damage if the flare hits.

gas passer was listed as the 2nd worst one unless ur talking about the other guys list

[Oliver #MAGA]

Some rankings I disagree with and suggestions (some; not all)

-The Flare Gun should be moved down (probably to B)
-Switch places with the Shortstop and the Soda Popper
-Third Degree should be added at C
-Sharpened Volcano Fragment should be added at C or D
-Bootlegger/Wee Boots should be moved to B
-The Jag is better than stock
-The Scotsman's Skullcutter should be moved up to at least B while the stock and Pain Train should be lowered (down to A or lower)
-Buffalo Steak Sandvich is better than the shotguns and should be placed higher than them; probably at A since it's not as good as the Dalokoh's Bar
-Gloves of Running Urgently aren't as good after they were reworked; I suggest they'd be placed at a lower tier
-Vita-Saw is the worst Medic melee and should be at the bottom tier (C, otherwise B)
-Hitman's Heatmaker should be at the same or a higher tier than stock

If you hadn't noticed or you just didn't know, it's called the "Huo-Long Heater ", not the "Huo-Long Heatmaker".

[Mossy Snake]

I'd make a special case for Sniper where he's both S and B due to his prevelance in HL and certain maps, but eh

I'd move Soda Popper to S aswell, that thing is laughably OP
Same with PBPP

Jag should also be A

Panic Attack should be top tier on Pyro, the thing's a literal straight upgrade on him

[eMercody]

I’ll do heavy as that is my lane
Primaries

1. (A) Stock, kinda just min maxing in areas that he sees more play in.
   
2. (A) Tomislav, adds more things to do while being abit worse at damage. Could be overhyped due to a desperation to make heavy more interesting imo.
   
3. (B) Natascha, just the slow is really good and makes you more of a team player. Apparently enjoying it makes you a terrible person, but that’s the opinion of the dead guy.
   
4. (B) Huo Long Heater, Its rings don’t deter anything and wastes that damage upside with the slow startup. The chances of getting more than two pyros aren’t higher than quite a few other classes, unless you’re in jimmy land, slimmer if you expect them to keep your targets lit.
   
5. (C) Brass Beast, long story short, its downsides cut your effective health just for a bit of more damage, the irony. That damage does come into play occasionally.

Secondaries

1. (S) Sandvich, full heal and its bursty nature makes it the best for team play (kinda important when heavy is best at teamplay)
   
2. (A) Buffalo Steak Sandvich, I’m dead serious, that team heal is huge and you shouldn’t need to eat it, but the “just in case” is better than the effect it gets.
   
3. (A) Second Banana, significant decreases in support ability but has a very good self heal, quite nice in poorly organized teams.
   
4. (B) Dalokohs Bar, poor support, poor self heal, just for a little more health, quite nice with the quickfix and only quickfix.
   
5. (C) Shotgun, it’s a shotgun, just not sandvich
   
6. (C) Family Business, less damage but faster fire rate doesn’t really benefit a shotgun, it’s kinda just there
   
7. (D) Panic Attack, only better at point blank, but why not use melee than waste your slot? It defeats the purpose of chasing as well.

Melee

1. (S) Fists of Steel, no competition, take a wild guess what caused that.
   
2. (A) Holiday Punch, Stock but with stun, through uber, basically no downside
   
3. (A) Killing Gloves of Boxing, crits are scary especially for little downside
   
4. (B) Fists, it’s stock, best at punching things, beats gru for the showdown taunt
   
5. (B) Gloves of Running Urgently, run away (despite FoS being able to do that,) go places but handicap yourself.
   
6. (C) Eviction Notice, less intense GRU, speed boost in hit for staying in a grill, less dps, not that great
   
7. (D) Warrior’s Spirit, do more damage only passes one threshold that good luck having it happen and useless in others, take more damage from everything. It impressively manages to be less useful than EN
