What's so scary about Pyro?

[DrunkenQueen]

This video just shows it ran around, burning Unarmed, Surrendered enemies.
Big deal, everyone can do that.

Not everybody can make an entire enemy team surrender on their own.

Thing is, the "Meet The ___" videos are pretty damn innaccurate when it comes to gameplay.

Hoohoo, you would not believe how true this is for Meet The Pyro.

1st- Fire doesn't burn buildings, so it's useless to try to kill someone in that manner.

2nd- In TF2, people have guns. No one's unarmed.

Saw the Scorch Shot taunt kill on that Scout? Yeah, not in this game.

3rd- Pyrovision is only accessible through Pyrovision Goggles and a few cosmetics for Pyro.

4th- Fire doesn't do that much damage. Like, every class's primary bar Medic's can out-DPS it.

5th- Absolutely no one fears the Pyro.

Well, if your team had won the map, enemies would become all unarmed, surrendered looking.

Taunt with the Scorch Shot Equipped. It actually is. Im not posting to be a jerk, just pointing out that it is a fun taunt to hit snipers with.

I mean, a player with half a brain wouldn't fall for that in such an open space, like the one shown in Meet The Pyro.

They don't want to burn, slowly losing 50 HP without water or health. A BackBurner Pyro can turn the Tables. The pyro can cause Destruction with his flames. Destruction of blood...

"not being in the game" & not being effective to a player with a room temp IQ are 2 different things (I get lots of snipers with that attack/taunt). Most of the "action" shown in the "meet the character" videos is 100% production.

Everyone is scared of all the girls that main the class.

Yeah, I guess I just worded that weird.

Except pyro is wearing those cosmetics, you just cant see them outside of pyroland...

I wrote this in 1 o'clock in the darn morning, gimme a break.

Nonethless, it's still pretty unrealistic.

I talked about how only an idiot would fall for that already.
