Demoman is OP!, nerf the overpowered drunk!

Demoman has to be the single most overpowered class in TF2 right now, and ever.

Points:

1) He has no real counter, a good demoman can't really be killed by anything except for a sniper across a map (which isn't balanced)

2) He can take down any class at medium range

3) Stickies are too difficult or impossible to dodge if in the hands of even a mediocre player

4) Spamming rewards the player, which shouldn't be

5) A demoman can take down a sentry gun with ease, with or without an uber

6) Demoman's stickies are supposed to be used for defense, hence the "Defense" class tag on him

7) Has the highest-damage crits in TF2

Counter-points:

1) Demoman can be killed (most of the time) by a pyro at melee range

2) Demoman can be killed by a sniper across the map

3) Demoman has a hard time killing an ambushing heavy

I literally cannot think of a single counter to a demoman. By "Counter" I don't mean "the entire team rushing in on him at once" I mean "This class can take out a demoman with relative ease"

I'm a primeval warrior, and I'm sick of being completely decimated by a demoman. Soldiers can be just as bad, but they're different because they are an attacker class and aren't meant to have a real counter.. as a tradeoff, they have no real advantage over any class.
