Engis role in life
in tf2 less acual tf2 is being played every day this is leading to over all decrease in tf2 skill scince all people do is derp on mario cart servers and minecraft so if you dont know the basics of the engi class, the hardest class to learn in my opinion on you need to go wacth some other video or guide

but for itermediate even advanced engis will learn at least ont thing from this video it is a work of art




ok now they have an entire section to sentry jumps this is key k onward
sentry jumps
Sentry jumps are important remember you only need a level 1 sentry or even a mini to sentry jump even though it is extremely easy to kill your self sentry jumping with a level 1 and 2 sentry remember there are 2 ways to jump with a level 3

level 3 sentry jumps

1.stand directly infront of it then face the direction you want to jump walk jump shoot at the same time in the direction your going this is the easyest and fastest way to sentry jump

2. stand some distance from your sentry fire rockets at your feet jump as they hit your feet this will propel you upward then strafe around in the air but this rarely works this is only good when your sentry is far away or you are already somewhere where you cant reach and want to go even higher

level 1,2,mini sentry jumps

1. going strait up jump crouch on your sentry then line up the wrangler laser so it goes through you
it will look like it is a tiny bit to your left this is fine once you are in the middle just m1 as high as
you want to go

2. leap jumping going diagonaly in the air you want the laser to be at your neck level jump at the hight of your jump press m1 this will not get you very high but will get you pretty far useful for having to avoid long walks like the bridge on ctf barnblitz


this video will provide even more help

your sentry
hi ok your sentry will be your best bud in tf2 as engi it will make one of the most dangerous players on the team if used correctly now ive seen people rage that sentrys are op and stuff but they are not so you need to know your sentry inside out so ive taken the liberty to take the sentry specs from the tf2 wiki enjoy

try to remember the sentrys health and damage





only thing that isnt there but might be helpful if you are waiting in line is

tele recharge speed

level 1 is 10 seconds

level 2 is 5 seconds

level 3 is 3 seconds

dont wait in line if your tele is level 1 especially if your sentry nest is in danger
Sentry placement on the go
on well known maps like badwater second point on the roof you know your sentry is relatively safe far from the cart it bombards peopke as they turn the corner to push the cart

but as a engi you do not need to die every time with your sentry on big maps when your sentry gets killed pick up your dispenser and fall back but remember time is of the essence

THINGS THAT WILL KILL YOU

this is a list of death that will decend opon you if you are not careful

1.long range demo spam of nades and stickies

2.you will get sniped then your sentry will

3.you get back stabbed well that always happens even to pros

4.the leaping pyro apears behind you burning you and your sentry

5.soilder direct hit spam

6.heavy at close range outanks your sentry

7. AN UBER WALKS IN nothing you can do but pick up your dispencer fall back
unless its a pyro,or retarded hoovy then pick up your sentry and run ´

These are all almost avoidable you need to place your sentry behind cover to avoid half of these
your sentry will work better in a room hallway or under roof avoiding long range demo and soilder spam open spaces mean death to snipers for exaple the sniper decks on 2 fort are almost impossible to make a sentry nest work even though it has the right structure your enimies
will walk out from under the bridge and will be shot before they can shoot because you sentry has the high ground but enstead these are people not bots they are lazy they will spam you from the other fort where out gunned you are and pretty much dead

THINGS FOR A GOOD PLACEMENT

1. protection from spam and snipers biuld in hallways like the one in gorge leading to the
last point where your sentry can shoot the sniper before he can kil you or behind a wall or large object for example truck and crates

2. Give your sentry the advantage biulding on high ground will alow more protection to yourself
and a better angle of vision for you sentry alowing it to attack first a level 3 will decimate a
attacker in seconds remember this image from tf2 wiki



3.biuld near a source of health and ammo this is pretty self explanatory

4.Important biuld near range of choke points corners are amazing advantage to you sentry
combine high ground with corner to get a amazing sentry spot image from tf2 wiki




IF YOU SUCCED WITH YOUR SENTRY NEST REMEMBER THIS

1.if your sentry is not in the way of capturing objective the enemy will stop trying to kill you
and focus on winning meaning you need to relocate

2.if you are in the way and being a pain in the ass you will be dealt with they will team up on you
more spies will come at you ubers will be depoyed no on can withstand an entire team in a pug
trying to kill them no one ifr this happens you know you are going to die pick up your dispencer
and run for it




MOST importantly once you can do this perfectly

go make you base but add a different strat every 4 kills move your sentry remember 200 metal

can heal your sentry many times go ofensive kill kill kill once the enemy knows where you are

move to some where else then reapeat




Help your sentry
if you help your sentry you chances are 2 times higher of surviving remember this is important
it helps to have the rescue ranger so you can do both it will also give the attacker 2 targets
a smart opponent will go after you fall back then foucus down your sentry so if he goes after you just hop all over the place and the sentry will kill him for you remember you should be useing your primary not standing behind your sentry idle only tank in a solider heavy 1v1 if a demo comes by
you need too go kill him if not his stickies will bow you your sentry and your dispencer but a good
demoman will always kill your sentry scince his class is anti engi same with a spy a good spy will also kill you nothing you can do

class macth ups



1. scout vs engi if your caught away from your sentry a good scout will kill you
a ok scout will also kill you a bad scout might not kill you try to
fight scouts in closed rooms hit them with your wrench

if you have a mini throw it down and run to your team the scout
will have to decide between killing you then dieing to sentry or
killing the sentry then falling back

a level 3 will insta kill a scout dont worry


2. soilder vs engi you can out tank a soilder easy wait untill he runs out of ammo
then rush him down with the wrangler or shotgun

if he has a direct hit you are screwed period pick your sentry fall back
if hes spamming you you can mabe hope to tank him out and let your
teamates kill him

if without a sentry triy to dodge his rockets and shotgun him
down if he is good he will juggle you and your dead so i hate to say this
based on his hats and gun fall back throw down a mini play it safer
remember a wrangled mini sentry takes 4 rockets to die

3.pyro vs engi without sentry jump while backpedaling to avoid falme your shot gun
has a higher dps than his flame shoot him down

well placed sentry makes easy work of the best pyros but be careful
your sentry rockets can be airblasted

4.demo vs engi a good sentry spot will only be decimated by a uber demo if this happens
fell good for yourself uber takes a long time charge making you use it
is a fair trade off but always try to pick up your dispenser and run why
if you take the sentry the knock back wil disapear and your distraction will go
with it




5.engi vs engi and medic vs engi

both about the same in combat mostly based on your skill level dont try to
back pedal a medic he runs faster also dont follow an enemy engi he might
be taking you to his nest

if you have a level 123 your sentry is better than these classes your fine

6.heavy vs engi

fat man health battle just tank if he is at a distance wrangle him the sentrys
dps id greater than miniguns at range
if your caught without a sentry or even a mini you are screwed unless he
sucks then remember 3 hits with the gunslinger does kill the heavy because
of the 3rd crit so try to sneak behind him but dont miss



7. sniper vs engi

if you get shot its over your sentry will get sniped biuld in rooms but
at close range dont worry your wepons are better than his

8.spy vs engi

a good spy will destrpy so dont even try to keep your back at the wall scince
he will be wacthing you just try to jump around while tanking dont stand still if
he misses his shank his disquise will disapear and the sentry will kill him
use your wrangler and wrench to spy check not your shot gun
and look around for suspicious activity and most important make a tele
it will attract teamates to your nest making it harder for spys to get near
