      @Disgusting_Developer This is a beginner's guide not a scout meta guide. The bat is imo the best melee weapon for a beginner to use as it doesn't have to deal with some weird mechanic and it helps finishing players off when you're scattergun aim isn't the greatest yet.
      The pocket pistol overpowered as f*ck and I don't want to recommend people to learn with overpowered items.

    Nice tutorial. I really needed some help using this class, I didn't even know it had double-jump! Having played with it for over 12 hours now the most important aspect, as you said, is to get REALLY close to your opponent before shooting them with the Scattergun. If you don't, they'll figure out where you are and backup will arrive, so my tip as well is to get close, and don't stop moving.

  • @lateralus_enjoyer
    @lateralus_enjoyer Před 2 lety

    As a scout main, the best loadout for scout (in my opinion) is:
    -Scattergun
    It’s the most reliable primary compared to the others
    -Winger
    Limited clip size, but you jump much higher (stock is also good if you don’t want to lose clip size)
    -Boston basher
    Since you can damage yourself, it helps the medic build Uber (plus, the bleed effect is good for spy checking + doing more damage with melee

    Scout is the best class to destroy spies, snipers, medics and demomans with "nature force"? (Dont remember the english name for it atm) you can 2 shot everything from demoman and lower and you can 2 shot most soldiers with low hp if you get close enough. And with it you can launch anything to air from close enough so they die to fall dmg or your 3rd/4th shot or melee.

  • @reubenbailey7491
    @reubenbailey7491 Před 3 lety

    I'm biased I know, but I think that the winger is an incredible alternative to the pistol, as the extra jump height boost can be used to maneuver to some places that can't even dream about with the normal pistol, not to mention that the debuffs like the decreased mag size usually don't effect you seeing as overall the pistol is a last resort and, as he said here, should only be used to finish people off when your scattergun is out of ammo

    • @Nickbro101
      @Nickbro101  Před 3 lety

      Personally I prefer the winger as well but this guide is aimed at those who are new and I do believe that the stock pistol is easier to use. Also, the winger gives you extra jump height, not a speed boost.

    • @Nickbro101
      @Nickbro101  Před 6 lety

      The pistol is best used as a backup weapon for when you run out of shots on your scattergun mid combat. It's way more effective then reloading 1 extra scattergun shot as you'll have more bullets to shoot and your enemy will typically be at low hp. You could also use it for sentries at range if the engi isn't nearby or if you really want to grab the enemy's attention from range.

    • @Nickbro101
      @Nickbro101  Před 6 lety

      While he is a generalist, he is also a pick class. Scout is excellent at eliminating specific targets but, unlike sniper and spy, that it isn't the only thing he's good at. Due to his speed he can contribute to more general situations.
      (In case you're still confused by the naming, there are three rolls classes can fall under with potential overlap, pick, power and support. Then there are also two categories for how many situations the class' skills can be applied to, generalist and specialist.)

    • @lenntf
      @lenntf Před 6 lety

      Nickbro101 he isnt a pick class bc he doesnt have a one shot mechanic like spy and sniper. just because the class has potential to kill things quick doesnt make it a pick class. a revved up heavy in a corner isnt a pick class bc he kills things good lol

    • @Nickbro101
      @Nickbro101  Před 6 lety

      Being a pick class doesn't mean that he has to one shot people. A pick class is a class that excels at single target elimination. Scout's hit and run playstyle fits in perfectly. Seeing a scout rush in just to kill the medic and then get out isn't uncommon.

      Yes, I did know about that. However I didn't mention it in my video as you should never rely on a random factor for your succes. I see even less reason in mentioning it since random crits are removed in more serious matches and with the discussions that have been happening surrounding random crits, I wouldn't be surprised if they get removed from casual as well.

      Having consistent, over 60 frames per second will be the biggest benefit to your gameplay.

    Okay... After you're done Listening to this joke here are some "ADVANCE SCOUT TIPS"
    1. Wear Lime Green or Purple colored customizations. Or even both if your cocky today
    2. Innappropriately name your guns, like Mad Milk (The Cum Buckets)
    3. Teabag your enemies corpses
    4. Throw salt to the enemy that killed you. If you want to, you can add tons racial slurs
    5. Spam "E" for Medicks when you have 124/125 health
    6. Throw endless amounts of Salt to your Teammates and Enemies when you lose a match
    7. Taunt after every kill, or if you want more salt and hate. Taunt on their bodies
    8. Create the most saltiest Of Saltiest Loadouts, (Force-A-Nature, Crit-A-Cola, The Frying Pan)
    9. One v one Heavy and throw absolute Shit and Salt to Heavies when they kill you
    10. Always take the lvl. 1 teleporter and ignore the Heavy infront of it.
    11. Always take the Large Medkits when you lose 1 point of health and ignore the Medick with 5 health left.
    12. Always make excuses like, Laggyness and Disconnected Mouse shit
    13. Call other Scouts in both your team and the enemy, a complete Noob spelled with zeroes
    14. Never admit that you suck at Scout
    15. Always use the Frying Pan
    16. Become a Squabling Virging Abortion
    17. Become a mistake in Humanity
    18. Reconsider your existance
    19. Don't use Condoms during sex
    20. Name your self With double Xx in the start and end of your name, it doesn't matter how insulting, racist, edgy your name is, just add Xx(name)xX

    I'd be much more happier if you would just upload a few vids per week of u just playing random casual games or comp and maybe live commentary.

    The scattergun has 9 pellets per shot, not 10

    • @Nickbro101
      @Nickbro101  Před 6 lety

      Bob Reday No it has 10. If you turn of random bullet spread then you do get a 3x3 pattern but the 10th bullet lands in the top left together with the first one.
