- Mouse 1 + W, this is how the Pyro is played. You shouldn't be rewarded with even one kill while playing like this, let alone dominations and top scores. You really don't have to aim at anything. You're actually better off not aiming at anything as Pyro. Sadly, this isn't cherry picked footage.
- Hry
that keyboard is nasty
After all these years this video is still relevant
Everyone runs when they see that shit.
Sup.
IMPOSSIBLE! 720p on 2009?
but if this was posted in 2009, how did he get access to b33p's POV demos?
OR instead of ruining your mouse and keyboard, you could have opened the console and typed these 2 commands:
+attack
+forward
It's that easy!
Poor mouse and keyboard.
Wouldn't be as funny, though.
totally true, 1077 people are W+M1 pyros
This guy needs a Grammy for taking all the keys out of the keyboard
if Pyro is a "noob" owning players by a simple w+m1, then those players are more like idiots and deserve it!

PsychoxPancho lmao YEP.
PsychoxPancho its just simple logic, the game is balanced and if thats the unskilled tactic, why cant others beat it?
elgatochurro In the end of the day when it comes down to it.. It's just a really cheap way of getting a kill. It's like using the grenade launcher in call of duty... It's just a dirty cheap way of getting a kill with 0 skill involved.
Most of them are spies or demos that don't know how to use their sticky launcher, or medics/snipers that weren't well placed, so yeah.
They do deserved it.
This video is the most educational thing ever about tf2... im not joking
Somehow, he managed so overcome a team with 14 spies. It's downright inspirational.
THIS is what i want to see! :P you are like the best pyro ever and ive seen plenty of pyros spraying everywhere. you inspire me to be a better pyro :D
An incredibly insightful video which shows your amazing ablity to cut and edit a recorded video to make it seem as if what you are doing would actually be effective.
People should have tried this in the beta when pyros who got good scores were the pinnacle of skill.
@KaiqueSumatso u can use the scroll thingy in the middle of mouse to change wepens too
this is the best pyro gameplay footage of all time
i dont need no nothing but this
If he was using the phlogisnator there would have been a 100% rise in skills.
@Mikzuu94 Compression Blast is also great for knocking other players around. I get much more use out of it by separating ubering medics from their protection than I do deflecting rockets. Also, if a compression blasting pyro is such a huge problem for your soldier, then why not pull out the Direct Hit?
Great video!
"and my favorite class is the spy"
Hah Gabe Troll Face picture in the end , I can picture Gabe making that face after giving the pyro the back burner buff haha XD
You were fighting spies, snipers, and medics. Of course you're going to own.
This was when the Backburner still gave you an HP bonus, right?
Good times. Or wait, no, that was terrible.
the pyro is one of the most versatile classes in TF2 along with the Soldier right now...mainly because of the degreaser
Bahahaha! I can't give this video enough thumbs up. I love the Pyro, and his W+M1 skills. Oh, and Natascha counters the pyro. If you catch him coming, he won't be able to touch you.
truly a master of the class
looks like a fun game, I think im gonna buy it.
Thanks for sharing!
If you use the Backburner the way it should be used (ambush them from behind) heavy+medic combos can be taken down aswell with it.
The stigma against "W+M1" Pyros is a very interesting topic. Popular opinion dictates that players using Pyro with the W+M1 playstyle are essentially using a crutch which allows them to get cheap and unskilled kills. I would agree that this is not fair to players playing most other classes, and also that it is a very unskilled technique. On the other hand, when Team Fortress 2 was initially released, Pyro did not have the ability to airblast or get instakills in such a wide variety of ways. Essentially, players who are playing Pyro "skillfully," using weapons like the Axtinguisher and Flare Gun to quickly dispose of their targets are no less cheap than people playing Pyro as originally intended. The fact that Pyro takes so little skill to play is only made worse by the fact that Pyro has no real firm counter. Although some may argue that the Scout or Heavy can counter Pyro, this is not entirely true. In Team Fortress 2, the counter for another class is expected to win most one-on-one scenarios, though may lose to a more skillful player or their random critical hits. In the case of Scout vs. Pyro, while it is possible for a good Scout to win most encounters with Pyros, more often than not, the Pyro will either brush the Scout with his/her flames, causing Scout to rapidly die from direct fire damage or afterburn, or use an instakill combo attack to immediately kill the Scout. Similarly, Heavies, the other "counter" to Pyros may be able to kill the Pyro at least some of the time even if they are not particularly skillful with the class, but with afterburn and any ambushing done by the Pyro, it is often the Heavy who dies. Essentially, there is no real difference between the "W+M1" Pyro players and their more "skilled" counterparts. Pyro is cheap the way (s)he is, and until a true counter is created to give Pyros an actual challenge to fight against, this will not change
it depends on your gameplay , the positive stats of primary weapon doeesn't compensate the negative for my gameplay , so for me the best still the basic flame thrower or the ranblower
@CharroArgentino No, it just gave you an extra 50 health and no compression blast. Effectively, not only was W+M1 ridiculously effective, it was the ONLY thing a Derpburner Pyro could do.
There will be a flamethrower elite class in battlefield 1, I heard
hmm, funny that giggle drops says that stuff at the end..wasnt he one of the pyros spraying earlier in the video?
@RatatatatatBang Could you please tell me a class which is impossible to play without M1+W?
its like they all run out of ammo when they see you coming.
I laughed my ass off while watching this. That music fits so well XD
@SkyScrapers72 50+ hp back burner doesn't exist, it was removed in an update. Someone hasn't played in a while (it was several months ago). I agree with you though, giving the pyro 50 more health would mean that the pyro outclassed the soldier in every aspect (except weapon range, and the airblast renders that mute anyways).
And that's where we get the term!
Bro, you switched weapons at one point.
Great video anyway.
I'm sure the thing missing from the newest Meet the Team video featuring the Pyro is any mention of W+M1. Though, I'm sure nerfs brought this down...
Man, those SNIPERS and SPIES didn't stand a chance.
Oh man you totally killed some spies and engineers who weren't trying to fight back! And spawn killing! Impressive!
best thing about this vid is the music the fact that this pyro is having an epileptic siezure says nothing for real pyros
Simple, but effective.
>+forward
>+attack1
>only have to steer
feels good, man
@InspectorIncognito But can't the BB still be used to ambush people? It can still deal hundreds of points of damage in a short period of time. Combine it with some well placed flares and an axtinguisher, and you've got a potent combo.
I remember seeing this video when it first came out.
I'm still laughing my ass off
tecnicly m1 fires your gun and heavys hold w to move forward so any class could use m1+w tatic
Oh, that W+M1 sure is good way to spycheck...
I also occasionally use the jump button. Does that make me pro?

@fmjr10 Rule set by who ? In many situations changing weapons is completely unnecessary as you can just kill your enemy by cooking. And changing often means death too. If the enemy is out of flamethrower range, then shotgun is your friend. The axtinguisher comes in useful for tougher guys who aren't aware or in some fights that need to be ended quick.
IT FINALLY CAME OUT
YOU ARE THE BEST PYRO IVE EVER SEEN!
sooo how do you switch back to the backburner after with only w+M1?
Meet Hamps - The king if the broken Pyro
best spy checker ever
@ChancellorTF2 No, it auto switches for you every time you run out of ammo. Yeesh, when did you last play?
What's worse is these Pyros do exist. Even more so now that back burner has been boosted 8D
I remember this video like it was yesterday
Guys in the Console type in +attack and then +forward. Then just move the mouse around in the general direction
This video is beautiful
Pyro can do pretty much that except reaching super high places. Pyros can only reache moderate high places where a scout could go for a example. A lone sentry can be destroyed if the pyro can reflet the missiles or if it is in a bad position the pyro can just circle it or use a homewrecker. Also I don't think soldiers can push enemies, unlink ubercharges, extinguish teammates, remove sappers or spycheck like a pyro.
Okay, then how'd he switch back?
@InsaneSmashBrawler96 I don't think so...
When he switched to the shotgun, his flamethrower was out of ammo so it changed automatically
@AltruisticAlbatross Wait you expect us to moonwalk untill we're out of the pyro's broken range of fire ?
I love how it has all that "skill, ability, finesse" stuff. Makes it so hilarious.
@sporetvmaker herp derp you can change weps with scrolling the mouse thingy.
i learned how to play pyro from this video
The backburner was made for playing like Spy, or classic pyro ambush.
How did you swap back to the backburner from the shotgun at 1:30 if you only used W and M1?
The keyboard that is shown hes using only has the W key. Yet at 1:32 hes able to switch back to flamethrower without mousewheeling?
Finally someone who speaks some common since.
Thank you for acknowledging that.
I love Pyro.
That was actually pretty pro O_o
@Spindel01 you mean as long as the pyro runs straight at him?
What's the music? I get the impression it's a remix or something, since the "return to the classics" line is a sample that's also used elsewhere.
now thats how u play pyro M1+W FTW that was actually quite great good job
I like how there were no Heavys or Soldiers in the video mostly playing against spys and snipers with the occasional brain dead demo or no shotty pyro.
@Happypeanuthourtime but he switched back to flamethrower when he got ammo, so he push another buttons
Whenever I see another pyro other than me pressure blast, it makes me so proud.
@Anticipaste Camping can easily be countered by looking around corners before rushing past them.
And pyros are already at a disadvantage when ambushing, so if they're the ones caught off guard it's practically a free kill.
@RecycleDucks Rolling the mousewheel brings up the weapon menu on the right hand side of the screen.
this should be retitled as "meet the COMMON pyro"
...and yet, the most amazing thing about this video is the fps he's getting even with all the spam.
omg you make the enemy retreat in their base and they suppose to push the cart
If you were W +M1 ing then how did you which to the shotgun with only W and M1?
Question for people who play pyro: So are you suppose to not walk while using the flamethrower? I'm just wondering, because I don't really see what you're supposed to do if not walk and use your weapon.
what's next? Medic+Heavy?
music of comander 3 ??
epic win
the shotgun only gets taken out because he ran out of ammo on the flamethrower and had no choice.
you feel sick to move so the mouse
how do you switch to the shotgun at 1:30 if you only have W+M1?
@PhilleeL93 he picked up the ammo box, if you mean when he was with the medic. otherwise, probably gun pickups
@CeeZero Thanks. Unfortunately they don't repaste the comment, and the comments stating this were covered by spam and nobody gave them thumbs, so it's pretty hard to find.
This pyro is the best pyro that ever was.
I saw about one or two demos killed. W+M1 is hoylshti effective against the 125 HP classes? OMG SAY WHAAAAAAT?
wait a minute, howd he post that spray? dont you need to use T?
@TheDrakoPL: mousewheel up and down can also be used to change weapons.
@Un0nymous Which class does take skill? The spy, who can remain invisible until only one enemy is in sight? The sniper, who spends most of his time hiding from the real battle? The soldier, who doesn't even need to hit his targets to kill them? TF2 is an easy game. The real challenge in TF2 isn't killing the opponents, it's surviving. Most players I see are willing to commit suicide for a single kill. THAT takes 0 skill.
