      @@Kaledrone brass beast is a good weapon for offense sometimes, especially in payload. The cart is basically a moving dispenser, it heals you and gives you ammo, also try to use The Dalokohs Bar it, recharges faster than the sandwich and gives you an extra 50 hp combined with The Brass Beast from what I heard the Damage resistance starts earlier because Damage resistance starts if you drop below 50% HP, and 50% of 350 HP is 175 instead of 50% of 300 HP is 150, so snipers have to charge up 2 shots before they can kill you. Or you can use shotguns for your secondary for a quick attack, The Panic Attack is a good choice because they switch faster, and has 50% more bullets which deals more total damage than the stock even with the 20% Damage penalty. The Family Business is a good secondary too, because it has a bigger Clip and a faster firing speed. The Second Banana is not too good, mostly viable when there are no Medics, Dispensers, or Carts. The Sandvich isn't that great with The Brass Beast because it recharges too slow but it is probably useful if there are no Medics only. The Buffalo Stake Sandvich is not recommend, it is almost useless because it melee weapon locks you, unless you are planning as last resort attack or retreat (Slight speed boost from eating it) this weapon sould be replaced with a more matching weapon. The best Melee is mostly depends on the current round/game and your own personal taste and skill. The Gloves of running urgently is great for getting to the Objective quickly after you died, or to Run away after you are hurt, but the Mini crits are a downside of you are on fire. The Fist of Steel are good for retreating or pushing, it is also good for medic to build Uber, but if you're in close quarter combat people who've at least read the stats of the weapon will know that melee does 100% more damage and might target you, especially Scouts, Demokights, Spies, other Heavies, and Pyros also as side note watch out for Ullapool Cabers they deal an extra explosion damage especially when they charge with shields, also you have a 40% less over heal and heal rate from Medics so lookout. The Killing Gloves of Boxing is not too useful unless in close quarters because after a melee kill it gives 100% guarantee criticals even if you switch weapons. The Eviction Notice is not useful if combined with The Brass Beast, because you need to hit your enemy first for a speed boost.
      Side note, Stock melee and Secondaries are safe options if you aren't sure.
      Also try becoming a shield for your team, become a barrier if there's and Uber push make them focus you, because of your Damages resistance you are basically a slow moving tank you can help your team retreat or hold the enemy team off from killing your entire team, if only you died but the ready of your team lives it will be all worth it, especially if your medic survives the enemy push.
      Also for Medics healing Brass Beast Heavies, try using The Vacinator, The Quick Fix, or The Kirtzgkrieg. The Vaccinator Has a Shield for 3 Damage sources (Fire Damage, Bullet Damage, and Explosive Damage) this can increase their Damage resistance. The Kirtzgkrieg Charges up faster than stock, it also gives out 100% Criticals when fully charged, combined it with Yhe Brass Beastit increases the Damage Significantly and kills as quick as a Pyro with Criticals but with range. The Quick Fix Heals them faster and almost Negates the 40% less healing from healers penalty, also it charges quick and has a quick healing when fully charge and makes them immune to knockback, just watchout for spies when charging because they can still backstab you, the Quick Fix makes you resistant not Immortal.

      @poplar6724 Pƙed 4 lety +16

      I like to use it for offense when I'm just goofing around. It's a bit deeper than it seems. Spamming right on enemy position when both teams are fighting at medium range makes them: a) reposition b) do smth with stickies. a) is good if you force them to leave good position and b) is good if it's not pyro who's dealing with them. If it's not pyro, it'd soldiers most of the time. One or two rockets scatter stickies around. Is it good that enemy soldier shot 1 or 2 rockets to stickies and not your team? Kinda yeah, but you waste your time and stickies for his rockets, so it seems it's not worth it. Until you notice that MOST of the soldiers try to disarm it. And now it's a trade of 6-8 stickies to 2-6 rockets. And your stickies dont just brake, they still can do some damage or area control.
      But it doesnt make sense if they have pyro or heavy who pay attention to them, so, whatever. Still for goofing around. Fun to use at the start of final dustbowl round on pushing team where you can get that angle to spam that saafe zone with a ladder where defending team usually have a dispenser. Just to spray some PANIC

    @BenjaminHari Pƙed 4 lety +42

    Few extra tips I want to tell anyone learning Demoman. Part 1
    -When you need to reload but your team is bad keeping the pressure especially at choke I recommend just shooting 3-4 stickies on floor in obvious place and they will act as "mental barrier" for you to deter enemies charging on you (close combat is demos biggest weakness) because whenever we see stickies on the ground we take few seconds to analyze the situation and try to avoid the unnecessary damage but by the time somebody might airblast them or shoot them with explosives you'll be reloaded and ready to fight more.
    -There are no rules in when to use stickies and when to use pipes but deep in the core Demoman is still a defense class so try to use stickies as the defense and pipes as offense spamming tool. So for example if you setup the sticky trap around you and you might miss all the pipes or somebody catches you while reloading you can always lure them near your trap and kill them.
    -As for Pyros I recommend not dealing with them because Pyro is an expert in close combat and my best tip is to just try wasting their ammo by giving them stickies to reflect from a safe place, this way when some of your team mate surprises them they will most likely run out of ammo and in that "oh damn, _I'm out of ammo" panic they will die much easier. Of course this is useless if Pyro is near dispenser and guarding a Sentry lol. Stock Pyro has 10 airblasts while the Degreaser has only 8. And if you bait 6-7 he's already at big disadvantage.
    -And last one is to never fully deplete your clip especially on your pipe launcher, spam 2 then just reload. Wasting clip is just asking somebody charging and surprising you while you have no way to defend yourself.

    @JacobKinsley Pƙed 3 lety +15

    Also as a medic main, if someone is continuously healing you (even with a quick fix) and you're fully reloaded, that's a subtle hint to NOT just sticky jump miles ahead and get some sneaky attacks from behind, because there's most likely no other heavy classes nearby that could be healed instead, or there's something close ahead like a sentry which is best dealt with by a demo. Medics are like cats, if they're being unusually loyal they're usually trying to get you to do something for them.
    However if you're really far back on a long map and you're being healed you should sticky jump anyway, even if the medic doesn't have the quick fix. Because most likely, the medic will catch up eventually.

    I think I have the opposite of not reloading and think I reload too often/Long. I find myself in a situation where the enemy is pushing and my team is trying to hold them back, I have like 3 stickies loaded and I would just run away or behind a corner to maintain the faster reloading instead of trying to help the team

    One of my more common mistakes as a demoman, well hybrid knight/full demoknight was getting use to the "New" charge change. What I am refering to is that before you could Crit at any time as soon as your charge ended so if you timed it right you could do a max dmg shield bash crit swing combo, but now you have to travel a certain distance with your charge before a crit will be given.

  • @Armedgician
    @Armedgician Pƙed 4 lety +4

    I have this habit to shoot a sticky at my feets while walking backwards if I'm getting chased.
    I believe I got that habit from always finding myself in a situation were taking out melee is too slow and I don't want to hurt myself with a direct pill because enemy player is too close to me.
    It's a 50/50 chance most of the time if it will actually be effective or not, some players go in for melee and are too close for the arming time to finish before they already stepped over it.
    What are you guys opinions on this habit?

    • @nuralimedeu

      I do this sometimes and it's GREAT, I like using the Quickie Bomb Launcher a lot because of the faster charging speed and the arm time. So when I place stickies at my feet they would be already to explode because of the arm time. I suggest you use the technique if you're using the Quickie Bomb Launcher.

  • @mysoncrumphaseveryinjury3853

    I'm late,but here's a summary of the video:
    1. Reduce fall damage-place stickies on the wall instead of on the ground, detonate them a bit later than usual or land or any type of ramp. You will not fly as high,but you won't break your legs upon landing.
    2. Frequently reload the weapons-not much to say here,do it after retreating or some Scout will make use of that and kill you with 2 shots in your face while you're helpless at the battlefield.
    3. Don't camp using stickies- avoid just standing there for a few minutes waiting for the Heavy+Medic combo to get anihilated by your UGC Highlander level sticky trap,later they'll find a way to approach you from a different angle and kill you. Just make a trap and move on,try to make yourself look busy so the enemy won't be aware you've prepared a trap.
    4. Charge the stickies- hold the left mouse button,so you will launch the stickies further.
    5. Use maximum 3-4 stickies when preparing a trap-that should do the job,by launching bigass amount 8 stickies you'll waste ammo. Try spreading them as well,so you'll cover the larger areas and kill more people.
    6. Aim your shots-by slowly improving your aim you'll just get more kills and an advantage in 1v1 fights as well. Applies to every class.
    7.Switch the weapons- either your primary or secondary can prove more useful when fighting specific classes. Also you don't want to die like an idiot by blowing yourself up when the enemy is meleeing you,right?
    8.Counter the airblasting- change the rhythm of shooting grenades,fake the shots by jiggling your primary or attack the Pyro with stickies. Also this can really put your Demoknight skills to test,so good luck.
    9. Target the sentries-you're possibly the most effective class when it comes to destroying the buildings,so just go for them. Don't expect these 4 gibus Spies to do all the job for you.
    10. Switch to Demoknight only when the enemy team is not completely filled with problematic classes-by saying that I mean classes like Heavy, turtling Engineers or airblasting Pyro. They can easily counter you,so consider switching back to Demoman when the situation calls for it.

    More on how to combat pyros when baiting them out. The airblast has a short cooldown, so you basically have a safe firing period in between the airblasts. Most pyros will get into a rhythm of clicking to deflect after the first airblast, so you can just keep firing at them once you're positioned between the inverval.

    I remember when I first decided to main Demo, the biggest mistake I made was never using stickies. I never used them, mostly because of the stereotype around it. I would always be Iron Bomber/Loose Cannon, Tide Turner, and a basically random melee weapon. Now that I've been using stickies more, I see just how many sticky situations they can get a Demo out of, or allow you to kill someone at long range that even a charge couldn't get to.

  • @smittywerbenjagermanjensen7027

    Couple notes from an idiot for fun games:
    Don't be afraid to set multiple traps with stock if you're defending or waiting for a counterpush or whatever. Let's say there's two entrances to a point; just cover BOTH in a thick layer of high explosives. Ammo means nothing and it takes a couple seconds to reset BOTH traps. Never be scared to spread lots of bombs.
    Equipping the Eyelander on a non-knight set is the most fun I have every had. It sucks at first but running around with booties, bombs and a greatsword is one way to ramp up your sticky usage to another level.
    Make like a soldier and learn how to airshot. Bonus points if you can pop them in the air and then do it. You'd be surprised how many bombing soldiers will piss their pants crying if you figure that one out.
    The high ground is not only good for splash damage but also ambushes. TF2 players are allergic to looking up.
    Get the Scottsman's Stagger taunt. Best taunt behind Fresh Brewed Victory and the Schaudenfreude.
