Spy is an even weaker class than pyro, but I think he'd be even harder to rework without making him a completely different class.
I think the main reason that heavy even has so many votes is that hating pyro has become a meme, and people don't actually know why they're hating pyro.

i just got matched to a brazil server, is there any repercussion if i leave? and also is there any way i can tell idiots at valve never to waste my time doing that again

Prof Quickiebomb Kit price has gone waaaay up, check SCM and adjust your price. Last I checked, it was something like $14.
Ryder Roberts
WHY IS THIS STILL HERE
Ryan Bailey
spy's about backstabbing people (and sometimes sentries)
in dps he might be weaker but his role was always supposed to be support
meanwhile pyro is an "offense" class and even before they nerfed him into the dirt last year the only way you could viably attack with him was flare/axe or just babysit an engi
Benjamin Allen
there are no penalties for leaving casual

>Heavy mains are all pub shitters >Pyro mains are all comp wannabes >casual mode doesn't work but comp mode can at least connect once casual mode is fixed I'm sure we'll see a lot more scoring done for team heavy

If it is a casual match, it's fine, you can leave. If it is a competitive match, you will be penalized.
Jackson Myers
casual games don't have any leave penalty now
Eli Perry
What a neato update, am I right fellas?
Lincoln Reyes
ah good "you will not be able to rejoin this match" hopefully for the rest of my life fuckin 280 ping poppycock

sorry dont yell
Bentley Lopez
i hope people cant see my deaths and score and all that shit because sometimes i like to just fuck around and play fat scout or use some retarded loadout but this ranking shit ruined that
Ian Gonzalez
the fact that they have stats for kd makes me think that people are going to go for kills rather than do the objective soon
Dominic White
You've been able to view others' K:D ratio since Tough Break I think when they added the detailed scoreboard.
I don't think anyone actually uses it, and I could never get it to work consistently.
Julian Robinson
when will they add dpm to the stats
Brody Turner
Yeah, about that

I meant the overall lifetime stats I have a lot more kills than deaths right now but I don't want people looking at my stats thinking i'm a shitter

why dont you post this in owg whats the point of posting it here
Daniel Rodriguez
Oh. I hope that's private. I mean, I'm pretty sure everyone already knows I'm a shitter, but I don't want to give them proof. I have a 113:84 K:D right now.
Carter Clark
Are there no dominations in casual/matchmaking? Should there be?
Samuel Jenkins
no yes
Ethan Ross
QUICKPLAY OR RIOT
Ethan Gray
Apparently not. Dominations are part of the game, removing them seems silly.
Julian Carter
so you're releasing a competetive mode, with no votes and an increased incentive to cheat for ranks, obviously you're going to create a real system to report and verify cheaters like overwatch in CS:GO right? you wouldnt just let cheaters do what they please and ruin your competetive mode would you?
Angel Harris
>keep getting put into Chilean servers
Logan Hall
de donde eres ?
Adrian Miller
Random crits are part of the game, removing them seems silly. Same for no weapon or class limits.
I unironically agree with all of these statements.
Justin Brooks
I have never been put in a non-Virginia server. How are you this unlucky?
Jose Sullivan

Nathan King
You are correct, and no. The scoreboard and ones perception is far more indicative of who to focus on than a "ur shit" stamp.
Nicholas Cook
Random crits are bullshit, the second thing would make sense if (almost) every weapon were at least usable and not either ridiculously OP or ridiculously underwhelming. Every single class has its niche role to play, even a spy can be useful in some circumstances in 6v6, it doesn't mean you should run spy 24/7, though.
Nicholas Jackson
>no dominations in casual Seriously? Domination voice lines were the best.
Nathaniel Sanchez
Let's be honest though: If you got dominated by someone, it probably means that someone is good enough that they deserve your focus over other enemies.
Of course, though, there are situations in which a shitter sees a Spy that dominated them and a Medic and they decide to kill the Spy and let the Medic get away.
Julian Perry
t. gets dominated by everyone and never dominated owning noobs and having a big badge next to your name to prove it is the best and should at least be added to casual
Oliver Peterson

Hunter Cox
>Random crits are part of the game, removing them seems silly Is this Jill from Valve? If so, you are shit. Get back to work and remove that crap already from this game.
Justin Jenkins
Yea, I'm surprised they made 'actual' comp 6v6
Lincoln Torres
sent ;)
Elijah Adams
>"but randomcrits are to "make and break killstreaks"" >They are more likely to be awarded the more damage you've dealt I honestly can't follow Valve's train of thought with this.
Luke Perry
By that logic, a Scout who dominated me through four assists has a higher priority than a Medic. Do you really agree with that? I've got 5,000 hours in the game and I don't believe that dominations add a lot to the game. Use your killstreaks and stranges if you want to wave your dick around. I will concede that I get pretty bothered when I do get dominated.
Angel Rogers
b4nny stack just got matched against slin stack in cp_badlands
Logan Hill
>By that logic, a Scout who dominated me through four assists has a higher priority than a Medic. Do you really agree with that? I already addressed this in that same post with the Spy example.
My point is that Domination badges can sometimes still be good to discern what players could potentially be a larger problem to your team, but they need a good player behind making those decisions to know when it's good to focus the player who's dominating you, and when it's better to kill a higher-priority enemy even when they are not dominating you.
Grayson Cox
>I will concede that I get pretty bothered when I do get dominated. knew it lmao and theres literally no reason to remove them in casual of course it wouldnt matter to you because youve never pubstomped so yeah
Asher Gomez
an update has been released for team fortress 2 the patch notes are as follows: - every time someone uses a lenny face in chat they lose a level - every time your teammate is a fuckign idiot retard they die irl
Nolan Sanchez
what are you supposed to do if you encounter cheaters in matchmaking?
I was kind of enjoying it but running into some very obvious cheaters completely ruined it for me
Joshua Rodriguez
retard detected. 6's is close perfect, besides pyro being useless. although pyro is useless in every format which is why you should vote team pyro. >inb4 autistic "only 4 classes are used!" argument
Camden Rivera
email eric and tell him I said to do something about aimbotters
James Foster
Yeah, where the fuck did these go?
I swear I hear a voice line every once in a blue moon. I remember them a lot 5 years ago. Is there a setting that interferes with them?
Nathan Jenkins
>but they need a good player behind making those decisions So the perception of the players matters more than an arbitrary badge which will often antagonize a player? I'm not disagreeing that dominations can often be a strong indication of who to focus and who to avoid. But, the perception of you and your teammates will never lead you astray in that regard. >and theres literally no reason to remove them in casual There are plenty of reasons to remove them, and only a handful in favor of keeping them. >of course it wouldnt matter to you because youve never pubstomped so yeah oh shit i was baited

Blake Williams
As previously established, dominations can be misleading and antagonistic to casual players.
Joseph Sullivan
shuckle fragging b4nny hard
Thomas Green
i think the cause is people being less open to new players someone that played several seasons in competitive leagues doesnt want having to teach every single thing to a new comer, and would rather not play with him

I've started to try KOF13 trials for fun.
I can't even get 2x qcf move out in the time that they expect you to cancel.

Where does Battle Scarred fit into things? It's like the polar opposite of FN, but it's more interesting than the other exteriors.
Is it the cheapest?

generally yes, unless you get to unusual weapons where it's a wild card
Carson Fisher
Yeah but I remember it being literally every single time.

Tyler Sanchez
I'll take the previous example: a Scout dominates you through four assists. If you followed the dominations, he's a bigger target than the enemy Medic. But, we both know that's not true. >who cares That same argument can be extended to just about every thing in the game. Who cares about balance and gameplay in a casual pub? It's fine if you disagree with me in this regard, but that's an irreconcilable difference.
James Myers
shut up if ur not posting more

It's the exact opposite. I've only seen only 3 #TeamHeavys and fuck ton of #TeamPyros.

I see the opposite really. Guess it's about even
Easton Price
christ do you not know how to cross thread
Alexander Peterson
You're absolutely correct that experience is an immense barrier to entry, which should result in a massive amount of players at the lower levels. Yet this mass of shitters doesn't exist, because nobody wants to enter a stagnant and unenjoyable e-sports scene.
