I remember my brother picking medic and running screaming into battle with the Blutsauger. It was a fearsome sight to behold. Doubly hilarious when he'd get 4-5 kills before being taken down.
If you really think about it even the medic playstyle is insane. Usually medics aren't on the front lines, even if they are they're basically just soldiers with a crash course on basic medicine that boils down to "painkillers and bandages". AND THEN THERE'S THIS LITERAL MADMAN RUNNING OUT THERE THROUGH THE BULLETS, ROCKETS, PIPEBOMBS, STICKYBOMBS, ARROWS, AND THE OCCASIONAL FLYING CLEAVER TO HEAL HIS TEAM WITH SOMETHING THAT I AM CONVINCED IS MAGIC. I LOVE THIS GAME.
There is an amazing metaphor in his bypass of his deal with the devil. He surgically removed the eight souls of the eight other mercs and attached them to himself. This means he is the true soul of the team, as in, not only he keeps them alive and revives (mvm) them but also he is by definition the entire team's spirit. It's soul.
I personally don't believe that he doesn't have compassion for his patients. We saw with Heavy that he cares. I honestly think it's more of the train of thoughts, "This one's rude and thinks they know best." "Well, why not teach them a lesson?" Ending in the final decision of changing Patient to Experiment. In other words, NEVER piss off a Medic.
I did think that at first but Sniper's heavenly vision was a hallucination brought on my the Blue Whale Pineal gland, and I'm sure there was an explanation for Scout. I'd have to check again though!
@@Skyrionn you're forgetting too that when classic heavy asked how "a bunch of rejects" were able to beat him and his team medic butted in with "It's because we don't have souls... well *they* don't, but..."
@@PieSpie I feel like the fact that he first says _we_ before correcting it to _they_ implies that the soulless "they" he's talking about is the team that he is currently included in, which during that point in the comics is the TF2 mercs. I agree that it is a little ambiguous though.
Thank you for the video! I'd also like to add that we know a bit about how Medic and Archimedes met, and it's very wholesome. According to Archimedes' cosmetic description: "Before Archimedes came into the Medic's care, he made his living through wedding dovery. A lucrative trade, but he always felt something was missing. He looks back on the day that the Medic stole that catering van during the prime minister's wedding as the best day of his life. He's been burrowing into the chests of unwitting patients ever since." I love this, because it explains why the doves fly around medic in such a dramatic, angelic way in Meet the Medic. As wedding doves (assuming all of medic's doves are wedding doves), they were literally trained to fly around people majestically.
I love how medic in many ways is the opposite of Mercy. She’s an angel, He’s a devil, Mercy is hated, Medic is loved, She is humane, He is not. I know theres no connection between them but its a funny comparison.
my head canon is that Medic died in one of his experimentations and he wished to be brought back for 50 years in exchange of his soul because the way he phrased it he sounded like he did it before "for ANOTHER 50 years?" which couldn't happen if he didn't trick the devil previously but the devil would've known his tricks by then if he really did which would mean all his knowledge actually came from his experiments and considering he had a medical license before he lost it means he should've been smart enough to at least know what normal doctors do
I wish you had mentioned how Medic exploited the side effects of his theft of the teammates' souls further and used that to recreate the respawn room in mobile pods during MvM
@@GzaTPG don't correct me or i will make you charge me with your first uber in 40 rounds and resupply for the whole duration while stealing 40 health packs

Theory since TFC Medic's face is covered; The TFC Medic IS Dr. Ludwig. We never see the TFC Medic's face, so it could be quite possible that the deal he made with the devil was to lengthen his life-span, which would explain why he looks younger than the other TFC mercs. (Bonus: In the Meet the Medic outtakes, Medic mentioned his new ability to make "gods." Plural. A typical mad scientist would only want themself to become a god, not give this power to others, so this detail is interesting to me.)
@@chrisonmagic0312 its unlikely he thought that far ahead (even with how smart he really is) so in all likelyhood tfc medic died or got killed or retired for plot reasons.
As someone who mains medic from time to time I do appreciate whenever my teammates get hurt a lot more than when they are fully healed, more for the charge than anything
Actually now I realize The fact that it was so much harder for sniper to be revived vs everyone else and how mrs Pauling was brought back by simply adding back blood I think the reveal would be that he got only 7 of the mercenary souls and one of Pauling’s Then the real question is… why would he skip sniper in that case
I think you should mention, now that Vs. Saxton Hale is an official gamemode, that maybe Grey Mann sent the mercs after Saxton, but Saxton got away so Grey fired them.
Hey fun fact which makes all this a bit darker. Medic is in his early 40s, right? So since the game takes place in 1968, he’d be born around the year 1928. Meaning he was around 5 years old in 1933, when Spitler began to rise to power, and around 17 in 1945, when WW2 ended. And remember. He’s German. (and *NOT* A N[]ZI. WHY DO PEOPLE THINK HE’S A N[]ZI LIKE VALVE SAID HE ISN’T WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT)
Thank you! Heck I have seen headcanons of Medic DESPISING the N*zis. Sure medic is an evil bastard (a lovable one mind you) but he ain't no N*zi ( if anything, they committed far worse atrocities than Medic has ever done or will do).
Medic's stereotype as a "Nazi Mad Scientist" is taken to a whole new level. Thanks for expanding the Medic lore. Also, Merasmus should definitely be covered next time. October is next month, as of the making of this comment. Merasmus is associated with Ocotober (Halloween Month)
In theory we could make something similar what medic did. Something that would accelerate the heart producing more blood cells to heal quicker. And uber charge would just be cranking that to 35.
For me, after mann vs machine and the comics, Redmond and Blutarch continued fighting. As seen in Scream fortress, they can still talk with the mercenaries, so maybe, the Gravel Wars continued
I just wanna say it's a community created cosmetic and it being in the game has no correlation to the lore. He must have been involved in the war tho because at some point there was a mandatory military service starting from age 18 btw not all german soldiers were nazis
Well, I don't think I have to say much. I am pleased as always. You even brought back my will to play TF2 and I like this feeling, I am truly greatful.
I haven't even played much TF2, even then it was years ago and this video still gripped me throughout. Great video! I had no idea how deep the lore went.
I noticed a little inconsistency. If Medic removed other mercs' souls, then how did Scout get to heaven when he died? Or was it just pre-death hallucination? Although it's hard to call it hallucination, since you can see Tom Jones in heaven, who was killed by Soldier. What's your opinion on that?
Simply put, since Scout is a direct gift upon the earth by God himself, Scout has something more than just a soul, and God can override whatever difficulty lacking a complete soul would present in bringing him to heaven Scout is clearly not a mere human, but a divine being, with a divine soul, or something similar, and either Medic's soul-grafting surgery didn't work on Scout, or Scout has this whatever it is in ADDITION to his human soul, which he has since lost to the grafting procedure It may even be that God simply granted Scout a new one once the surgery was complete, but in all instances we can pretty handily rely on God enacting direct intervention in some way for his Specialest Boy
Awesome video! I'm looking forward to seeing you do each mercenary's lore. Advocating for the next episode of the TF2 comic at the end really made this video perfect - I hope this will be a recurring theme, and that your videos on other stories will have similar links/speculation about the next installments of those stories.
Its conflicting. Medic of tf2 almost makes me not want to play the game due to how absolutely evil he is, but on the other hand, he somehow connects modern tf2 to its quake tf roots with how dark it all is. And i love quake and how dark quake is.
I’m a secondary medic(engy main) and I can confirm that we are spiteful, sinister, and shady. Just ask the sniper mains that I dominate with medic assists by hiding behind a wall and buffing my snipers.
I know that the TF2 cosmetics and hats aren’t exactly canon, but one of Medic’s hats imply that he was a part of Germany’s military during WW2. Quite an interesting fun fact.
It was confirmed years ago in a TF2 blog post that Medic isn't a nazi as it was seen as "too easy". I have heard people suggest he's Jewish. Seeing as his theme song is apparently based on Klezmer music & his family was kicked out of their home during that time. Of course, there's also his fondness for Einstein... and money.
Correction , the medic didn’t surgically remove the souls of his tf2 teammates, rather he took the souls of the tfc mercs , because if the soul of the scout was taken then his soul couldn’t have ascended to heaven when he died , if it was really removed while the tfc mercs weren’t shown to go to any kind of afterlife when they died

Good job on making the medic video it good imagine if tfc medic came back and help the tf2 medic 😃😃😃👍👍👍😉😉😉😉😉😉❤️❤️❤️😉❤️❤️❤️😎😎😎😎😎😎
That opening quote though.
The best quote
i have 2 words to say.
MEDIC GAMING
a moment of silence for the medic who made the perfect uber and got me to destroy 5 level 3 sentries and got us the win on a upward match
have i watched this like 5 times? yes. will i watch it more? yes.
I'm still wondering if it was Modern mercs or the Classic mercs that Medic took
It would be cool if we could see more of the mercs backstories, before they became mercs.
25:35 heavy´s face xD
As a nurse, I must say the most scary thing isn't the "Putzauto" in the hospital, wich is driving by russians... Noooo😂 It's the german doctors who have just a weird mood. 😭 Still have trauma from the canteen. Good food, but there you meet people....
I honestly thought the baboon uterus thing was a joke to scare the classic heavy.
and then he died. DON TOUCH DA BIRD
4:56 - this is a part of the video in "Meet the medic", this is actually a joke of medic saying
"And the skeleton was never found again"
you know I should wait for other Mercenaries full backstory so I upgrade my knowledge of TF2 Mercenaries
