    Ok but how many people use TF2 weapons to be successful? Sure I don't use the Neon Annihilator much, but when I'm playing on 2Fort and I get bored harassing snipers with the Loose Cannon, I'll swap to pyroshark and murk some engies trying to build a sewer base. Plus, even if you don't want to airblast people into the sewers to follow it up with a sick detonator jump into toaster bath combo, you can still just pester them with a flare gun or shotgun to get them to follow you. Where else do people go when they're on fire? Neon Annihilator is good in the same way that the Market Gardener, Caber, Loose Cannon, and to a certain extent, spy as a class is. Getting lé funny kill on a gibbus pyro coming out of spawn after you do a 20 minute chain jump around Hightower is the same sort of fun as airblasting a medic into the water and introducing him to the power of the electron.

    I think it would be interesting if the Neon and Third Degree shared stats, where they both crit wet players, took 2 swings to destroy sappers, and hit players connected by medi-beams for a 20% Player damage reduction (ofc leaving random crits) so they would become reskins of each other.

    @yourgoodfriend276 Год назад +58

    I still think you're nuts if you use the Third Degree more than the Neon Annihilator.
    Again, having a class that isn't engie being able to remove sappers from sentries just makes it a great utility. Even if there is a BETTER one, that doesn't mean this is automatically worse. That's like saying the Jag is automatically F tier because the gunslinger makes a sentry pop up faster. Again, it is rare that you are in a situation where you can hit a sapper once, but not twice. Sometimes hitting it once is also beneficial, like on teles, where it slows the spy's spam down.
    The random crit argument is eh, stating that the damage difference negligable and then turning around and ignoring that the neon annihilator can one-shot more often with a stronger and more consistent crit is silly. "Homewrecker is better in EVERY way!" and then immediately says the damage is worse and that it only is better with an optional lootbox setting.
    "Water is the most common of these liquids" would be a fair argument if water was the only liquid used in TF2. It isn't, snipers and scouts both commonly use secondaries that can cover multiple enemies for a short period of time. And can use it on any map. At any time. At range. From spawn. Over and over. "Oh it doesn't pair with the gas passer!" Nothing pairs with the gas passer, gas passer sucks, that's gas passer's flaw, not annihilators. Try pairing it with the thermal thruster instead. Leap across the map to save a sentry or dive at players who are in water.

      The Neon isn't a bad weapon, it's just got a serious case of Aquaman Syndrome where its uses and strengths are so specialized one could easily write them off on paper, but in-practice you have the equivalent of medical peppermint oil, super specialized but something you'll be happy to have when it's the specific thing you need.

      @thecactussword4304 Год назад

      @@aleflippy1997 In my experience, primarily using the Back Scratcher, Homewrecker, and Neon, all are pretty map-dependant.
      Like the Back only really becomes useful if you're on a map you can tango around on your own on, with a surplus of health kits to survive in areas you normally wouldn't have a chance in. I don't have a good time with the Back on smaller maps where I need to constantly co-ordinate with my team and generally stay in a smaller area because its upside at that point is a flat damage boost, nothing else.
      Meanwhile the Homer is a great tool for crushing Minis, providing heavy support for Engie, but it completely stalls on maps not tailored to Engineer whatsoever. In a situation where neither team has an Engineer, I'd say the Homewrecker is even MORE situational than the Neon, as it literally HAS no upside in that case, just doing nerfed damage
      The Neon by comparison can combo with your Scout and Sniper, two classes my buddies happen to play a lot of. At the end of the day the Neon provides a "fork" of sorts between the Homer and Back, being able to support your team while doing the increased, situational damage and supporting your Engie best you can.
      I actually don't think the Neon needs a buff so much as the other classes need to catch up and become more mechanically interesting so they can synergize more often. A Mad Milk/Sun on a Stick Scout has a *really* good time with a Scorch Shot/Neon Annihilator Pyro, and I've found the minute-to-minute teamplay the most satisfying part of the game.

    Idea: What if the neon annihilator gave pyro a speed boost while wet and if you swing it while wet you'll slosh the wetness status effect off of yourself and on to nearby enemies. This would give it some utility by allowing the pyro to get rid of debuffs while also giving the pyro some way to set people up for crits. You could walk through a puddle to get yourself wet then slosh that water at an enemy within 5 seconds of leaving the puddle then crit them even if they never touched the water. Would make it much better at taking advantage of smaller bodies of water like the stream on swift water.

    The neon annihilator. As a pyro main I'll never understand the game design decision to make it not combo with the gas passer. It's fun to use it in pier since it's basically the only map that really has water on it. I would still rank it uper than the position you put it but I can't change a single argument you made on it. Nice video video as always.

    Maybe it would be more fun if you ran around the sewers instead of camping in one place, baiting people to follow you to a spot where you can easily get a crit on them.
    Or just having the weapon in your loadout and playing normally, using it sparingly when the right opportunity arises (this thing can still destroy sappers)
    Also you don't have to wait for your own sniper to douse someone, just reflect an enemy's jarate/mad milk back at them and use the real bushwacka!

    5:53 "Not to mention how boring using the Neon Annihilator is"
    I main Medic (so my credibility just plummeted given what I'm trying to say) but even I can tell that sitting in the sewer, only using the Neon Annihilator, _literally just waiting_ for someone to come to you is nowhere near close to a fun play-style. It's by _no means_ a practical weapon, but 'Fun Factor' can't be objectively measured if you're forcing yourself to use the weapon. The way I see it, the Neon Annihilator is for people with gambling addictions. It's not useful in the average match, but it completely removes one of Pyro's weaknesses, and when someone slips up in the right spot, it's one of the most satisfying weapons to connect with.
    If you absolutely _need_ consistency when you pick your weapons, an easy way to get someone to flank in the water is to just beat the crap out of them on land and make a big show of the fact that you aren't running the Neon Annihilator as your melee. When they decide to flank through the water, switch to the Neon Annihilator and find a close spot to catch them off guard. Contrary to popular belief, you _can_ play with more than one melee weapon per match of TF2. Switch off when they get wise or when it stops being fun for you.

    I would also like to point out, with the Gas Passer argument, that if- IF- their reason for excluding the Gas Passer was scientifically based in the fact that gasoline is a poor electric conductor (which I DON'T think it was given the fact that the Gas Passer can extinguish teammates), then they're also totally ignoring the fact that IT'S A LIVE SPARK AROUND A FLAMABLE LIQUID. Gaben fucking forbid they give the Gas Passer any legitimate use outside of MvM but like, at least have it do mini-crits or SOMETHING.
