The axe is surprisingly effective.

Seriously, it's the only weapon I've been using for like the past week or so.

And once you dominate someone with some crits to the face well.... expect to see a lot more heavies and soldiers....


What unconventional tactics / Strange weapons do you use?

I like to go shovel, baseball bat, and revolver only. also, i like to go assassin with any melee weapon (i.e. hide and jump out and pray for a crit), pretend im a spy to my own team, and go battle medic w/ syringe gun.

If you wanna pray for a crit, use the engineer. Supposedly it's the weapon that gets the most crits.

I knowww. You owned me with the axe the other day.

If I play Pyro, the only weapon(s) I use is the axe, and/or the shotgun.

I only use the flamethrower on Demos who think they're cool 'cause they can blow up the guy who dominated them with an axe by spamming stickies.

I like spamming the engie pistol. I shoot walls more then any thing else, not because I have bad aim, but because I get board turtleing.

Haha, that reminds me of the time me and a friend were bored and decided to join a random 2Fort server. He went axe-Pyro and I went Medic and healed him. Together we actually managed to keep the enemy team trapped in their spawn room for several minutes! It was hilarious.

Kukri gets more crits than a Turtleneer in the intel room, because the Snoipah's doing more damage. Likewise, a RED Medic on Dustbowl gets more crits than over 9000 Wrenches, because if his patient has any hands he'l dishing out loads of damage. Oh, and the Bottle, as every Sticky does 3857638586345986398365 damage, Demo has quite the crate.

Axe seems to get the most consecutive crits though, followed by the Soldier's shotgun.

I only use the axe because the pyro's got a great balance of speed, health, and fire-resistance for meleeing people.
