SICK SCOUT STRATS

lazer beams

Haven't tested it, but if short stop scout becomes the 'new meta', then pocket FaN scout would be hilarious (assuming the FaN's push back is increased by 80% on shortstop targets).

Scout comes near -> FaN shot -> Scout enter orbit -> Medic safe.

this is so rofl holy shit I am almost certain valve released this update purely to troll us

FaN meatshot sends a shortstop scout from shutter on gray to choke

really interesting stuff.

scout 1: Force of Nature.
scout 2: Shortstop

scout 2 jumps
scout 1 shoots him
scout 2 goes flying

Already proven to launch scout 2 from shutter door on grey bridge all the way to choke.

On the other hand, I could see some really cool jumps/jump movies of flying scouts....

edit: god damnit owl

What about fall damage from knocking a scoot in the head with a rocket/sticky while he is jumping? AFAIK the game uses velocity rather than distance to calculate fall damage...

Just jump before you hit the ground?

it still has bad damage output + you take a lot of fall damage

What if they catch you just as you jumped? or you didn't see it coming? I'm not talking about hitting a scout who is way up in the air, I mean just normal jumping.

Ah I see, I guess they would take massive fall damage then.

I want to see this... scout cratering from random spam.

Well if you're pubbing you could just use the Pocket Pistol, but this sounds really cool lol.

#changingthemeta

Don't tell this guy, but scout has a double jump (keep it on the dl yo)

If you're going fast enough to eat that much shit from fall damage, the window to double jump is going to be much shorter once you realize where you're headed.

Wait, ALL push force? I wonder how far a pyro could airblast a scout now...

they needed to make MGE harder for mike

surf in to the medic's ass or spawn. your choice.

Played the last few scrims with it, it's super fun to use but it's still the same gun it was before. Ubering a scout with the shortstop is a huge downgrade, and fighting other scouts is harder in general. Theorycrafting that flying across the map all the time as scout in order to provide a distraction is on par with thief calling the FaN viable.

escape plan nerf: die more cry more.
