Couple of things worth noting: 1) the Quick Fix was supposed to have been nerfed in Jungle Inferno to have slower Uber building when pocketing someone. This is bugged. Your Uber always builds in roughly 36.4 seconds, so long as you are continuously healing someone. 2) the only exception to this is when someone else has healed your patient above 142.5% of their health- so another medic using a different medigun. This means your Uber charge is cut in half until their health drops below that threshold. If another medic is healing them while you are, then the build rate is cut down to 1/4. This rarely happens considering how infrequently two medics are healing the same person.
TF2 players: "Valve, give us a new weapon to change the stock meta!" Valve: *adds a new meta-changing weapon completely different to stock* TF2 players: "This isn't stock. It sucks."
People don't even say that. It's universally agreed that the quickfix is incredibly good and the go to when facing an evenly matched team. Hell, it's banned in sixes due to being a straight upgrade in practice. Of course if you're getting rolled, it's better to have full invincibility. It's also a fun medi gun to dick around with. No one outside of random pub medics says it sucks. Shut up.
@@Kronosfobi really? Whenever I heal someone the vaccinator still gives me a 3% resistance so often I can survive one headshot with 3 health since medic has 150 hp try healing someone to over 150 health since the vaccinator comes with a overheal speed reduction

I have almost 666 hours on Medic and I use every medi gun: Medi gun when attacking or when enemies turtles a bit too hard; Kritzkrieg when defending and on MvM (gotta submit to the meta sadly); Quick-Fix when I can't build ubers or when I can't keep up with healing; Vaccinator when I want some bots to go on VACation or when there is that once stupid scunt who can't let me live for longer than ten seconds.
Personally, I never use the kritz in mvm (mann up and others) except if my patients are able to prove to me that they won't die too often. And 3 out of 4 times, I end up saving my team with the quick-fix uber, reviving the entire team. Plus, since I often try to get canteens pretty fast, they stop complaining when they end up getting crits without me having to pocket them, while I can block giants with the shield and use my uber to not be killed by small bots. Conclusion: quick is at least as good in mvm as the kritz, and far better if your team is more focused on offense and or die a lot. Though, kritz is better when your team does a good job at staying alive and if you as medic prefer a more defensive playstyle (which I kinda find boring tbh). At least, that's what I've noticed.
I always use the vaccinator because I have no sense of timing with uber and because I want more to do when healing than just jumping around and staring at my target.
Kritzkrieg is a high tier option in casual, when the round begins on most payload or attack defend maps, have a sticky jumping demo go get the engie nest before it’s fully built and then soldier or demo with kritz... is really devastating

Vaccinator is best when enemies stack heavies engies or snipers. Stock is usually for first push out of spawn or last push on the last checkpoint. Anything ither than 4 meds clockwork ubering stock invuls is risky in pubs. I agree same with kritz better on defense Quick fix and vaccinator work best when your teammates are terrible to always have extra heal targets in sight or in vaccinator case aggressive but lacking self awareness. Removing the consequences usually meams teammates will keep burning shooting or throwing explosives at the enemy till they die which with vaccinator will take awhile. Chain is only as strong as its weakest link. Literally taking a gibus newbie or some class like sniper scout or even spy will see results.

@@Newbmann Have you heard of highlander? Had a medic who was adamant about using the quickfix, which wasn't banned, and dear god was it bad. Quickfix can work in pubs, but in competitive where you're up against a coordinated team, a strong sniper and spy, the uber really gets you nowhere.
@@ludwigiapilosa508 finally, someone who agrees with me. Ubersaw is the most overrated weapon in tf2. To make use of it, you need to melee someone AND survive. 1st, you shouldn't even be hitting people with your melee as a medic. 2nd, these situations rarely even come. People like to hate on the amputator because it's use "rarely even comes", but as a medic main who has already used both melees for quite some time, I made use of the amputator way more often than the ubersaw. I do agree that the amputator is underpowered. If they made it so that you can move while taunting with it, it would be almost perfectly balanced (at least in casual). But, to be honest, medic doesn't really have a great melee, only ok ones
Victor Raposo - Yeah, your main job as a medic is to heal people. That's impossible to do when you're dead. A good way to become dead is to engage in melee fights with the enemy. Everyone knows how wonky the melee hit registration is and you can never quite be sure what will happen. Even though there are those cases where you know you'll probably get away with it, it's pretty frequently just not worth the risk. I have the strange part Allied Healing Done on both my crossbow and amputator and get around 85% as much healing with the latter. You can build uber with amputator and even get assists that way, so why not? I get killed a lot less often amputator taunting that trying to melee, even though I use it fairly aggressively. I don't think it's really underpowered but I do wish they got rid of the gradual build up to the max health regeneration. That was kind of a secret nerf. But if they want to buff it, I won't complain.
Deepends IF that 1 person is hard carrying yup keep em alive or boost them no damage or crit hits. Or just take less damage works too more forgiving. Healing 2-4 people but they dont contribute may wanna use them as cannon fodder or distractions while you and your 1 actual decent buddy use it to flank the enemy
Your editing is on point, you are funny, and your weapon breakdowns are really good. You are genuinely my favorite tf2 youtuber, you are underrated as hell. It's a shame that RUclips is burying your vids. :( I have the notification bell on and everything and RUclips still refuses to show me your videos.
This video covered literally everything that I like about the Quick Fix, even things I didn't know about, I like the Quick Fix because it's more supportive.
he forgot about quickfix on koth maps, what use is a regular uber on a hecking koth map when you can glue your shoes to the point and barf out a bajillion health while capping
It’s the perfect defensive tool. When you’re tanking a ton of damage on the defence, it keeps people alive, and the uber on the QF essentially tops up your entire team’s health.
quickfix is for medics who dont want their whole team dead, or themselves dead, or their favorite pocket dead, you always feel like a failure if you pop a regular uber just to _keep someone alive_ cause those are supposed to be offensive, not defensive
I'm seriously impressed by the Zero Mission sequence. Medic pulls off the graceful pose surprisingly well, followed up by a perfect integration of the mercs into a rapturous, nostalgic scene about unlocking one's true potential. I never thought I'd see TF2 and Metroid of all things be combined in such a fitting manner. Great Work. Oh, and you also taught me some really useful things about the Quick Fix. Thanks for that, too.
By far my favorite Medi-Gun ever. You basically give up the full invulnerability of stock Über and half the overheal to do your job better. And hey, it's charge negates knockback so there's that too.
Your editing is so amazing. You deserve way, way more subs and views. This was amazing. Well explained, well edited, and changed my mind in the quick fix. Keep up the great work, man.
As a player of both Competitive and Casual, I can say that the Quick-Fix is really good in a casual setting, and a competitive 6’s setting. The flash healing is really good when pushing in to the final point
The metroid animated sequence is the best thing I've seen today. You gained an instant like and subscribe just for that..Overall, really good video, keep going! 👍
Usually in pubs , if there is a medic with either uber or kritz , I would play medic with quick fix to act as a supporting medic. Staying slightly behind the frontline to provide heals and reduce the down time of team mates.
One bonus thing about the quick fix vs stock, is that even if you use it like the stock Uber, the fact that you ARE killable definitely makes the enemy team act differently. With a stock Uber push or hold, usually the enemy team runs and scatters because they KNOW they CAN'T kill you. This is nice, but they're still alive, just around a corner waiting for your Uber to end. A quick fix Uber, they KNOW they MIGHT kill you, so they're much more likely to focus fire on you and your Uber target, rather than run away. In my experience, they rarely have enough raw dps to do so without a sniper or spy. This means that they're easy pickings for the rest of your (fully healed) team to wipe out while they desperately try to kill the quick fix Uber pair, so long as you keep an eye on the kill feed for enemy sniper deaths. A little psychology goes a long way.
Also, my favorite quick fix Uber target by far is a pyro. Having Uber up so fast and watching a pyro run up to a sentry nest with no knock back and burn the engineer and his toys to a crisp is the moment I knew I preferred this to stock 90% of the time
The only thing I dislike about the Quick-Fix is that it mirrors blast jumps. More often than not, I'll be surprised or generally unprepared when a soldier decides to pogo jump with high explosives, and I'll be thrown in the wrong direction or just end up out of reach of the target, leaving me defenseless, or in the worst case, I just go flying off the cliff and die, losing any ubercharge I had stored up. I love everything else about the Quick-Fix, but this one attribute is frustrating and less useful than it seems on paper.
The Quick Fix is also pretty amazing in Mann Vs Machine, as not only do you get faster revives and shield charges, but the knockback immunity with its Ubercharge becomes invaluable against the robots (both big and small) that throw around a lot of knockback.
Hello. I know you won't read this but...thanks you. First you say about quickfix, then about overdose and amputator. This is exactly my loadout. I am glad that someone is on my meta alternative side. I appreciate this.
I would switch out the overdose with the crusaders crossbow, I know it’s the meta but when I use the quick fix my brain thinks “I must maximize healing” and so an extra way to heal from long range is really helpful, also I use the amp just so I don’t die as much so I can heal more.
@@nobody-cj8il I don't use crossbow in 2 reasons: 1: it is meta and I hate it. I want to be at least somewhat unique. I am playing tf2, not clone wars. 2: I can't aim at all, that's why I went for medic. And to help people. By the way, it is more effective faster running to heal them with medigun or taunt with amputator if teammates in bunch. And I even capped Intel thanks to overdose. Imagine little bit slower scout but with 150 hp, self healing, faster firing speed that can become invincible for 8 seconds. This can be new subclass. Mediscout.
@@tamirlanilasov8357 true, but the main reason I really like it really is because I don’t like automatic weapons really, there will always be exceptions like with the flame thrower and miniguns because there’s nothing that could really replace them in my opinion.

@@SaintRedFox I still have it. And I am not gonna take crossbow or ubersaw, from the principle. And yes, my friend, everyone judging us for "wrong play" can eat shit!
The thing nobody realizes about a quick fix uber is that it isn't as flashy s other uber charges. People run away from kritz and stock charges, but don't run from a quick fix charge
Quick fix is like any other medigun depends on your playstyle:stock- you pocketing heavies or plogistinator pyros, quick fix to heal your entire team and keep them all healthy when they all somewhere near you, kritzkrieg to pocket soldiers or demos to destroy your enemy's aaaaand vacinatoooor... it's just stock but worse.Quick fix is different, other mediguns we only be useful only for pocketing when being bad at healing your team when quick fix is complete opposite.
I love the quick fix. When I use any other medi-gun, I feel like I’m only playing for the Uber. But the quick fix feels like I’m always on top of everything.
People didnt understand This gun. It's not like you can pocket someone. It won't work. It's supposed to be a Team-Support instead of pocketing. It's bad if used as a pocket tool.
i'm surprised that you didn't comment too much on the blast jump mechanic. it's always nice to be able to hop forward with a rocket sticky or flare jump and know that your medic will be right behind you.
The medigun is much, much stronger than the quick fix only in 3 situations: 1. When combined with very strong use of crossbow, which stomps the non-uber healing/second of the quick fix. 2. When pushing chokes. 3. When countering kritz.
The quick-fix is usable, but there are other problems with its usage that aren't explored. The weapon is quite simply put very inconsistent at pushing caps or chokes in pubs. In 6s it's banned because it's OP in that format to the point where one med using it forces the other med to use it, same reason as the Vacc. In pubs or in highlander, the pick classes like spy and sniper can shut you down entirely. The enemy med switching to Kritz, which has a similar charge rate, will also counter a quick-fix because all the heal rate in the world won't heal you from a direct crit pipe; same thing would apply to sticky stacking or an enemy phlog pocket or the random machina sniper hiding in the corner of the map. Trying to push payload last points in pubs with a quick-fix is often torturous if there is a soldier/demo kritz pocket, or a phlog getting pocketed by a vacc or stock. In pubs there's also random crits to consider. The same issues apply to using the weapon while on the defensive, but it's mitigated by being covered by sentries and other defense orient classes like heavy or pyro.
Exactly. Just wanna add to this that in HL, you don't even need pick classes or a kritz uber to shut down a quick fix, all you need is good coordination and focus fire. If you get everyone to just shoot at either the medic or his patient, they'll die regardless of the faster healing rate.
1) That HBO intro skit was fantastic. 2) You forgot to mention the fact that when a demoknight charges or a demoman/soldier blast away you come with them (or atleast recieve the boost). I know that you've showed it but not talked about the few specifics about it. 3) That Metroid reference was very well made too. 4) I LOVE the Quick Fix and feel akward when not using it as I always wish I could heal all my teammates in time. 5) Ground spy is best spy.
I fucking love the quick fix, it’s so good at chokepoints and when you combo it with the amputator you can hide in cover while your team covers the choke and spam taunt, build Uber during the downtime and then have it in your pocket for when the enemy demo starts bombing and things so you can get your team back up to fill in no time.
The only reason why the quick-fix is banned in competitive 6's is because Medics have a "get out of jail free" card by riding blast jumps in and out with their pocket, making pushes next to impossible to pull off a medic pick, slowing the game down immensely. The mobility it grants the medic is way to strong. Aside from that, damage rates are so high that there is largely no difference between stock and the quick fix. You do heal faster, but with less overheal, it's all around weaker than stock in faster paced 6's games. Chip damage from scouts/spam prevents crit heals to top off health pools. Lower overall health pools without higher overheal makes it harder to deal with the higher burst damage from pushes. Yes, you build Uber faster, but all someone needs to do is run sniper or spy to pick the med, just as they would with a normal stalemate using stock. Or, during a quick fix Uber push, a well timed bomb, sticky trap, sniper, spy, etc would be more than enough to stop it. But the fact the medic can coordinate with a pocket to relocate himself, at any time, around the map means that the medic becomes WAY harder to kill, which slows the game down because health gets replenished faster, and the source of that health doesn't get taken down nearly as often.
How is the quick-fix under-rated though? I see it used on pubs very often, just as used as the stock and kritzkrieg mediguns, hell, even the Vaccinator is as used as these. I don't know how you got that idea. I only use the quick-fix when i'm the only Medic on a big team, because there's so many teammates asking for healing that there's no time to overheal them, so that's when that medigun comes in full-effect, it's super-rewarding seeing 5-6 teammates at low health and heal them all with the quick-fix ubercharge. If there's a second medic on the team though i switch back to stock since now the healing is multiplied by 2 now, so there's no need for a Quick-fix there unless the second medic is horrible at doing his job. Stock is still better for general situations though, because you're forgetting the fact that full stock overheals can help players live longer without the need of your medigun sticking up on their asses all the time, you basically compared a full overhealed teammate with one you're pocketing the entire round with the quick-fix, which is lazy imo. They can also tank more uncharged headshots with a full overheal WITHOUT you healing them, whereas the quick-fix is needed to be constantly healing them if you want them to survive, instead of their own with just your overheal and the help of medkits, that's another thing you're forgetting, you're not the only healing source in the game, you've got dispensers, medkits and sandviches, and others like mad milk, so all of those can compensate for the lack of healing of the stock medi-gun. But if those are under-used, then that's when the quick-fix comes in handy, it's called a side-grade for a reason. Also... someone played Zero Mission wayyy too much.
I like using the quick-fix and the amputator on the payload when there is another medic using the META so that I can use my stuff to keep everyone alive on the cart while he builds Uber and then he can push with a soldier, demo or heavy

Quickfix can work in pubs, but in competitive where you're up against a coordinated team, a strong sniper and spy, the uber really gets you nowhere.

“If you use anything other than the stock Medigun, you’ll lose!”
Me, a Vacc Medic: “ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT?!”
A medic who knows how to use a vacc is a terrifying sight to behold if you are going up against him.
As someone who plays alot of heavy good vacc medics scare me more than spies and snipers.
Yes Iam scared of u
i always get stuck on the resistance switch and constantly pop the wrong one when i need the other because i hit R one more time than i wanted.
I’ve tanked entire crit boosted sticky traps with the Vac, it’s stupidly funny.
zesty: the medic can only heal one person at a time
the amputator: am I a joke to you?
the entire tf2 community: yeah...yeah, you are.
Amputator is better than uber saw.
Did you know that medieval mode isn't a real gamemode?
I use the amputator and even I know it's a fucking joke
@@ludwigiapilosa508 finally, someone who agrees with me. Ubersaw is the most overrated weapon in tf2. To make use of it, you need to melee someone AND survive. 1st, you shouldn't even be hitting people with your melee as a medic. 2nd, these situations rarely even come. People like to hate on the amputator because it's use "rarely even comes", but as a medic main who has already used both melees for quite some time, I made use of the amputator way more often than the ubersaw.
I do agree that the amputator is underpowered. If they made it so that you can move while taunting with it, it would be almost perfectly balanced (at least in casual). But, to be honest, medic doesn't really have a great melee, only ok ones
Victor Raposo - Yeah, your main job as a medic is to heal people. That's impossible to do when you're dead. A good way to become dead is to engage in melee fights with the enemy. Everyone knows how wonky the melee hit registration is and you can never quite be sure what will happen. Even though there are those cases where you know you'll probably get away with it, it's pretty frequently just not worth the risk.
I have the strange part Allied Healing Done on both my crossbow and amputator and get around 85% as much healing with the latter. You can build uber with amputator and even get assists that way, so why not? I get killed a lot less often amputator taunting that trying to melee, even though I use it fairly aggressively.
I don't think it's really underpowered but I do wish they got rid of the gradual build up to the max health regeneration. That was kind of a secret nerf. But if they want to buff it, I won't complain.
The metroid zero mission part is epic

Keeping 1 person invincible isn't as valuable _in most circumstances_ as healing 2-4 people faster than they can take damage in the middle of a push.

IF that 1 person is hard carrying yup keep em alive or boost them no damage or crit hits. Or just take less damage works too more forgiving.
Healing 2-4 people but they dont contribute may wanna use them as cannon fodder or distractions while you and your 1 actual decent buddy use it to flank the enemy

I have no reading comprehension
This was the best TF2 video I've seen in awhile. Great visuals, good script with a smooth flow, good content. Keep up these videos.
Your editing is on point, you are funny, and your weapon breakdowns are really good. You are genuinely my favorite tf2 youtuber, you are underrated as hell.
It's a shame that RUclips is burying your vids. :( I have the notification bell on and everything and RUclips still refuses to show me your videos.
This video covered literally everything that I like about the Quick Fix, even things I didn't know about, I like the Quick Fix because it's more supportive.

@@vivelespatat2670 did that change cause i vividly remember doing that once, maybe it just to win the team fight on point and then cap
It’s the perfect defensive tool. When you’re tanking a ton of damage on the defence, it keeps people alive, and the uber on the QF essentially tops up your entire team’s health.
quickfix is for medics who dont want their whole team dead, or themselves dead, or their favorite pocket dead, you always feel like a failure if you pop a regular uber just to _keep someone alive_ cause those are supposed to be offensive, not defensive

Jesus, it's amazing how much effort went into the ubercharge section with Metroid. It looks so good.
I'm seriously impressed by the Zero Mission sequence. Medic pulls off the graceful pose surprisingly well, followed up by a perfect integration of the mercs into a rapturous, nostalgic scene about unlocking one's true potential. I never thought I'd see TF2 and Metroid of all things be combined in such a fitting manner. Great Work.
Oh, and you also taught me some really useful things about the Quick Fix. Thanks for that, too.
The helvetica standart bit was BEAUTIFUL
You know where it's from
By far my favorite Medi-Gun ever. You basically give up the full invulnerability of stock Über and half the overheal to do your job better. And hey, it's charge negates knockback so there's that too.
I can not hear AfterBreakfast thru his voice now somehow
"Nobody is going to know what this is from"

Quick-fix can't heal that

I've been vouching for this weapon since it came out. Glad to see someone giving it the credit it deserves.
The metroid animated sequence is the best thing I've seen today.
You gained an instant like and subscribe just for that..Overall, really good video, keep going! 👍
Usually in pubs , if there is a medic with either uber or kritz , I would play medic with quick fix to act as a supporting medic. Staying slightly behind the frontline to provide heals and reduce the down time of team mates.
"He can only heal one person at a time" *laughs in amputator*
One bonus thing about the quick fix vs stock, is that even if you use it like the stock Uber, the fact that you ARE killable definitely makes the enemy team act differently. With a stock Uber push or hold, usually the enemy team runs and scatters because they KNOW they CAN'T kill you. This is nice, but they're still alive, just around a corner waiting for your Uber to end.
A quick fix Uber, they KNOW they MIGHT kill you, so they're much more likely to focus fire on you and your Uber target, rather than run away. In my experience, they rarely have enough raw dps to do so without a sniper or spy. This means that they're easy pickings for the rest of your (fully healed) team to wipe out while they desperately try to kill the quick fix Uber pair, so long as you keep an eye on the kill feed for enemy sniper deaths.
A little psychology goes a long way.
Also, my favorite quick fix Uber target by far is a pyro. Having Uber up so fast and watching a pyro run up to a sentry nest with no knock back and burn the engineer and his toys to a crisp is the moment I knew I preferred this to stock 90% of the time
The editing alone is golden

Zesty's stream i caught really showed how good the quick fix can be (and it was just a very fun stream)
The only thing I dislike about the Quick-Fix is that it mirrors blast jumps. More often than not, I'll be surprised or generally unprepared when a soldier decides to pogo jump with high explosives, and I'll be thrown in the wrong direction or just end up out of reach of the target, leaving me defenseless, or in the worst case, I just go flying off the cliff and die, losing any ubercharge I had stored up. I love everything else about the Quick-Fix, but this one attribute is frustrating and less useful than it seems on paper.
I love pissing off the stock purists when I use my festive strange quick fix....always a good time!
FINALLY! Somebody understands how to use the quick-fix uber!
Thank you for making this video!
Great, now everyone's going to use my favourite Medigun now.

Vitality: 8 souls
I see what you did there.
The Quick Fix is also pretty amazing in Mann Vs Machine, as not only do you get faster revives and shield charges, but the knockback immunity with its Ubercharge becomes invaluable against the robots (both big and small) that throw around a lot of knockback.
Hello. I know you won't read this but...thanks you. First you say about quickfix, then about overdose and amputator. This is exactly my loadout. I am glad that someone is on my meta alternative side. I appreciate this.
I would switch out the overdose with the crusaders crossbow, I know it’s the meta but when I use the quick fix my brain thinks “I must maximize healing” and so an extra way to heal from long range is really helpful, also I use the amp just so I don’t die as much so I can heal more.
@@nobody-cj8il I don't use crossbow in 2 reasons: 1: it is meta and I hate it. I want to be at least somewhat unique. I am playing tf2, not clone wars. 2: I can't aim at all, that's why I went for medic. And to help people.
By the way, it is more effective faster running to heal them with medigun or taunt with amputator if teammates in bunch. And I even capped Intel thanks to overdose. Imagine little bit slower scout but with 150 hp, self healing, faster firing speed that can become invincible for 8 seconds. This can be new subclass. Mediscout.
@@tamirlanilasov8357 true, but the main reason I really like it really is because I don’t like automatic weapons really, there will always be exceptions like with the flame thrower and miniguns because there’s nothing that could really replace them in my opinion.
hi, i dont know if you are going to read this too or if this is still your loadout, but this is the same loadout i use, is extremely fun and if anyone forces me to go meta then they can go and eat shit. Good choice
@@SaintRedFox I still have it. And I am not gonna take crossbow or ubersaw, from the principle. And yes, my friend, everyone judging us for "wrong play" can eat shit!
The thing nobody realizes about a quick fix uber is that it isn't as flashy s other uber charges. People run away from kritz and stock charges, but don't run from a quick fix charge
That zero mission reference had me smiling throughout!
I absolutely love the metroid video edits / references here. That quick fix Uber part gave me a large smile I needed lol
The quick fix: the medic's ubercharge
I love the fact you mentioned and confirmed my suspicions on the quick-fix faster uber rate always being active.
I think a good buff for this medigun is to have no ubercharge drain penalty for switching targets
Quick fix is like any other medigun depends on your playstyle:stock- you pocketing heavies or plogistinator pyros, quick fix to heal your entire team and keep them all healthy when they all somewhere near you, kritzkrieg to pocket soldiers or demos to destroy your enemy's aaaaand vacinatoooor... it's just stock but worse.Quick fix is different, other mediguns we only be useful only for pocketing when being bad at healing your team when quick fix is complete opposite.
"You heal more quickly"
*wow if only we had a single word that described doing something more quickly*
I love the quick fix. When I use any other medi-gun, I feel like I’m only playing for the Uber. But the quick fix feels like I’m always on top of everything.

i'm surprised that you didn't comment too much on the blast jump mechanic. it's always nice to be able to hop forward with a rocket sticky or flare jump and know that your medic will be right behind you.
The medigun is much, much stronger than the quick fix only in 3 situations:
1. When combined with very strong use of crossbow, which stomps the non-uber healing/second of the quick fix.
2. When pushing chokes.
3. When countering kritz.
I love the quick fix for the faster heading
You're opening gag is strawmanning competitive players for thinking the quickfix is bad, but the thing is banned for being too good in 6v6 and 4v4.
The strongest adversary someone can face on tf2 is a ubered player.
Average Quick-Fix fan: 🥴
Average Vaccinator enjoyer: 🧐

vs average kritz enthusiast:🤴
I never thought of using the quick fix this way. Healing the whole team with uber instead of one person. thanks man
Quick fix is great for battle medic since you can heal teammates quick then go back to offense
The quick-fix is usable, but there are other problems with its usage that aren't explored. The weapon is quite simply put very inconsistent at pushing caps or chokes in pubs. In 6s it's banned because it's OP in that format to the point where one med using it forces the other med to use it, same reason as the Vacc. In pubs or in highlander, the pick classes like spy and sniper can shut you down entirely. The enemy med switching to Kritz, which has a similar charge rate, will also counter a quick-fix because all the heal rate in the world won't heal you from a direct crit pipe; same thing would apply to sticky stacking or an enemy phlog pocket or the random machina sniper hiding in the corner of the map. Trying to push payload last points in pubs with a quick-fix is often torturous if there is a soldier/demo kritz pocket, or a phlog getting pocketed by a vacc or stock. In pubs there's also random crits to consider. The same issues apply to using the weapon while on the defensive, but it's mitigated by being covered by sentries and other defense orient classes like heavy or pyro.
Thank you for the comment, very informative :)
Exactly. Just wanna add to this that in HL, you don't even need pick classes or a kritz uber to shut down a quick fix, all you need is good coordination and focus fire. If you get everyone to just shoot at either the medic or his patient, they'll die regardless of the faster healing rate.
1) That HBO intro skit was fantastic.
2) You forgot to mention the fact that when a demoknight charges or a demoman/soldier blast away you come with them (or atleast recieve the boost). I know that you've showed it but not talked about the few specifics about it.
3) That Metroid reference was very well made too.
4) I LOVE the Quick Fix and feel akward when not using it as I always wish I could heal all my teammates in time.
5) Ground spy is best spy.
I fucking love the quick fix, it’s so good at chokepoints and when you combo it with the amputator you can hide in cover while your team covers the choke and spam taunt, build Uber during the downtime and then have it in your pocket for when the enemy demo starts bombing and things so you can get your team back up to fill in no time.
Your Metroid references genuinely makes your videos a treat
The only reason why the quick-fix is banned in competitive 6's is because Medics have a "get out of jail free" card by riding blast jumps in and out with their pocket, making pushes next to impossible to pull off a medic pick, slowing the game down immensely. The mobility it grants the medic is way to strong.
Aside from that, damage rates are so high that there is largely no difference between stock and the quick fix. You do heal faster, but with less overheal, it's all around weaker than stock in faster paced 6's games. Chip damage from scouts/spam prevents crit heals to top off health pools. Lower overall health pools without higher overheal makes it harder to deal with the higher burst damage from pushes.
Yes, you build Uber faster, but all someone needs to do is run sniper or spy to pick the med, just as they would with a normal stalemate using stock. Or, during a quick fix Uber push, a well timed bomb, sticky trap, sniper, spy, etc would be more than enough to stop it.
But the fact the medic can coordinate with a pocket to relocate himself, at any time, around the map means that the medic becomes WAY harder to kill, which slows the game down because health gets replenished faster, and the source of that health doesn't get taken down nearly as often.
How is the quick-fix under-rated though? I see it used on pubs very often, just as used as the stock and kritzkrieg mediguns, hell, even the Vaccinator is as used as these. I don't know how you got that idea.
I only use the quick-fix when i'm the only Medic on a big team, because there's so many teammates asking for healing that there's no time to overheal them, so that's when that medigun comes in full-effect, it's super-rewarding seeing 5-6 teammates at low health and heal them all with the quick-fix ubercharge. If there's a second medic on the team though i switch back to stock since now the healing is multiplied by 2 now, so there's no need for a Quick-fix there unless the second medic is horrible at doing his job.
Stock is still better for general situations though, because you're forgetting the fact that full stock overheals can help players live longer without the need of your medigun sticking up on their asses all the time, you basically compared a full overhealed teammate with one you're pocketing the entire round with the quick-fix, which is lazy imo. They can also tank more uncharged headshots with a full overheal WITHOUT you healing them, whereas the quick-fix is needed to be constantly healing them if you want them to survive, instead of their own with just your overheal and the help of medkits, that's another thing you're forgetting, you're not the only healing source in the game, you've got dispensers, medkits and sandviches, and others like mad milk, so all of those can compensate for the lack of healing of the stock medi-gun. But if those are under-used, then that's when the quick-fix comes in handy, it's called a side-grade for a reason.
Also... someone played Zero Mission wayyy too much.
thank you! oh my god! quick fix is my favorite medigun and its an absoloute force when used in pubs! thanks for putting it in the spotlight.
the begginging bit is so funny because the quick fix is literally banned in comp for being too busted
I like using the quick-fix and the amputator on the payload when there is another medic using the META so that I can use my stuff to keep everyone alive on the cart while he builds Uber and then he can push with a soldier, demo or heavy
The quality of this video is insane! Congrats dude!
