- Something definitely makes me Uncomfortable about backburnering. It might be the whole "backburner" part of it. I need to go market garden somebody to make up for this...

"Face-melting Backburner"
Don't worry, I'm a professional.
If I ever get a strange backburner I'm stealing this for the description
If you haven't then DO IT! That made me laugh quite a bit. XD
Texan Terror coco-chan!
"Thank you for being on fire!"
-STAR_ 2012
No matter how many times I rewatch Ster's old videos, those little moments like "the capture point is that way" always get a chuckle out of me.
Cheers to nostalgia 🍻
19:33 After five years... STAR_ actually predicted the Dragon's Fury! :P
Freezeframe 21:50 I was like "Is that medic to the right just turned into low res giblets and not spread out yet?" then I realized it was a pocket medic...
i rewatch all his live commentaries from like 1am-5am whenever i end up falling asleep. miss these, i remember how excited i was each time there was a new video. never will be the same :( love u ster and everyone ❤️
💗💗💗 I feel u bro this really was the era
Literally doing this as I typed this, wish I could play tf2 again :C
16:30 ''I doubt it, he only plays his server''
Well, he's really wrong.
Those people that didn't believe that's STAR_ must be sad that they're in a video that they don't know about.
GoldTheAngel
Pretty sure that if they know about star, just to be sure. They check his vids to see if it was him.
AmateurCZcamsr
but who are you gonna believe some guy trolololoing as ster_ using his voice from clips or knowing someone with the name double dubling doobler is him
HehHEH
GO tO trutHcOnTEstcOm< REad the PREsent
their disbelief has been immortalized
That medic ubering the spy made my day.
As I am sure many people have already said, Becquerel had named himself after an omnipotent dog from Homestuck.
What kind of person uses the sharpen volcano fragment more than the back scratcher?
danish cant-kill-a-gibus-noob, pyrovision and mercenary noobs
People who play medieval mode a lot
Even for medieval mode, the Back scratcher is a much better weapon.
Honestly he probably forgot it existed. I know I still do
kills pyro
im not even sure they have any pyros on their team
I just realized that the Scrap Pack is the Chopper from Shoot Many Robots.
And then when all those people who thought STAR_ was fake watches this video.... Dat moment.
Yeah
19:33
You are right about that, Prophet!
Meaning a Rocket Jumper, although not necessarily something useful..
coming back here and see comments from 6 years ago I feel like I'm in the archives
Star you should do more of these. I'd love to see Discomfort Spy or Discomfort Heavy, especially with the weird options both classes have. Gives you an excuse to use the CHOCOLATE as Heavy as well, I'm sure you use that as often as I do (i.e. not at all).
It’s so cool to see you here in the comment section of an old video like this, rabbid! Any who, I hope you have a nice day! :)
"SWAG." - 2012 Ster
I hope you feel sufficiently embarrassed.
Why does everyone hate on the Proof of Purchase? It's a nice-looking hat IMO.
It's not better than unusuals.
I think it looks like a frisbee
But it's still a good hat
I like it too. But it isn't worth $20. Which is what i paid for it.
You can still get it, just buy the orange box :D (my friend bought it, and got the hat)
I actually really like it too iz güd hat.
I was watching the EVO videos too, and your videos came up in my recomendation list. been watching since.
Star needs to go on to x10 server with detonater and the back-burner
You should try the brass beast. Its like each bullet is a headshot
The Flamer: Stock (or Phlogy/Backburner), Flare Gun, and Sharpened Volcano Fragment.
The Pybro: Any Flamethrower, any Secondary, and Homewrecker.
Lol. Funny how both of your comment when this is a pretty old comment. Weird how both of my comments are still at the top. xD
know your comment is old but using the degreaser and homewrecker is pretty good
pybro is homewrecker, and the detonator of scorchshot, the area of effect of those flare guns allows aoe spyshecking the engie nest or any other area while standing next the engie, adn never using the volcano fragment, it just sucks horribly outside of medieval, no use to it what so ever
***** Thx for the reply, the Detonator alt fire has the same potential to remove stickies as the scorch shot, just requires more skill and timing, also going to add the Detonator superior flare jumping capability and the superior damage output should make up if not at least make it considerable trade off for the inability to air blast while it is equipped

I loved the backburner, then the degreaser, and now... THE RAINBLOWER!!! :D
Do you still like them
Man I was 14 when this was uploaded.
Thanks for these, ster.
High key missing this right now. Also missing the old tf2, God knows we need this update though #MeetYourMatch
Reading this now makes me sad. We were all so hopeful...
a-at least now we have the pyro update to look forward to, r-right guys!
High key?
Anyone else use the "Buttburner"? I do.
Don’t worry star, we’re all still here watching you! We all still love you the same too
These videos are good for my soul
Oh hey, Becquerel? Dude, you were playing with an omnipotent First Guardian and you didn't even know it!
Ikr.
***** Good dog. Best friend.
Do you use the sharpened volcano fragment more than the backscratcher??!!
its that time again rewatching stars videos I miss him
I'd love to see more Discomfort Zone commentaries and more live commentaries in general would be cool.
STAR_ predicted the Dragon's Fury 19:34
Star_ mentioned some rocket item that does damage to sentries. I got an idea for something like that. Maybe an EMP launcher that does zero damage to players but does increased damage to sentries and works like a sapper or something.
One of the reasons I love the Backburner is that when you have it equipped, enemy Soldiers will immediately assume you suck and are incapable/not willing to airblast. Then they fire away, only to have their rockets reflected. By a Backburner.
I like how Star called out a Homestuck reference.
I enjoy the back burner mainly because people are stupid and do things like turning and run from me giving me crits
Well, there really isn't anything the victim can do. The back burner is op, no doubt.
i'm not dumb,i just panic :S
+GANGSTA 1 If your bad, sure it's op.
+GANGSTA 1 Press S
Lol I wrote this comment during October, believe me I have no clue what my thought process was
is this the real STAR_?
naawwww
naw, the real star doesn't have boob avatars
6:48 missed an extinguish
The whole thing @ 16:00 is why pyro is my favorite class. On most maps, there are paths you can take that let you stay out of the open. Pyro is great at ambush and controlling tight spaces/corners. If you are stuck at range, the flare guns are still effective. They can easily take out sentry guns that are exposed from a distance and most enemies first reaction to getting hit with a flare gun is to run away and get health.
favorite comment when you win at the end
"Tendrop: AND ALL THROUGH THAT, WE STILL MANAGE TO LOSE"
"FeNix: go back to CoD, red"
"Tendrop: Thanks, team! :D"
How pissed these guys are at their own team XD favorite part of the entire video
i
this is the only pyro loadout i use i love it
that loadout is amazing
can you play me more star? im getting lonely....
WHAT IS GOING ON WITH CZcams?! HOW DO I REPLY TO PEOPLES COMMENTS?!?!?!?! D:
like this
Brian Habib wut i don ondersand
I love Barnblitz. It's one of my favorite maps.
I love using the back scratcher on random pub servers (because the ones I visit regularly have medics in them, 2 per team usually), unless we have a good medic on the team or engineer. If you are at about 40 health or above a medium kit become a large kit.
Medics in your vids are awesome!
Watching these vids makes me wanna play tf2 again, lol
"Pyro needs some sort of...Direct Hit" Well...We have the Dragons Fury now :D
I was just saying before star took the swag screenshot that that was the perfect screenshot.
The backburner is one of my favorite flamethrowers.
Good Pyros ambush. Welcome to release Pyro mentality.
I love how his least used pyro loadout is my favorote and most used pyro loadout
STAR_ did that with the ham, on the going ham video, and did realy well with it, beside we all know it's that one soldier loadout.
For a discomfort zone you are actually doing rather well with it lol
There should prolly be a second discomfort pyro video, using the phlog and the homewrecker.
I have to agree. When i first started out, I used only the backburner. This taught me to time my airblasts REALLY well. If anything I'd say that the most nooby weapon is the phlog. That weapons was MADE for m1+w'ing. The backburner was made for getting around enemy lines, appearing behind someone, pressing m1 for the shortest possible time to kill someone, then escaping with 1-2 airblasts.
Third degree Is my most used wepon. It's a stock fire axe with a pluse side and it looks cool.
Discomfort Zone is the original Bad Weapon Academy.
holy shit. that sniper that killed you at 5:06 is one of my friends. O:
I didn't even need to see "Backburner Pyro" in the description to know where "Discomfort Zone" was going.
the moment when star uses the exact loadout you use on the uncomfortable videos :x
So glad that they made a strange of this. C:
Your comment made fall over laughing before i even started watching
Most pub matches it's pretty easy to get behind people :S. There's more opportunities to use the degreaser + flare gun combo then there are to get backburner crits though which just makes it more versatile. Neither is difficult, one just has more uses generally :P.
the chris matrix reference at 9:40 really threw me off, whoa
this video reminded me of a time where i had to airblast a soda popper scout 6 times before he finally flew off the cliff and he promptly rage quit
I think the nozzle thing that differentiates Backburner and the stock flamethrower disappears when you die, as hats do.
i miss you
Degreaser, Reserve Shooter, Axetinguisher/ Postal Pummeler.
Great loadout
awesome and funny gameplay! subbed :)
I use the back burner, generally, because the back damage is real good when people run away.
Since watching this video, even after all this time, I can't look at a Pyro without thinking of the pyro motto at 8:06. Also other quotes like "I play good, I play backburner pyro" and "I don't really know much about the world. I know my flamethrower has eyes on it."
I agree with you, there are in fact certain situations where you have no other choice but to w+m1, but that doesn't make you a noob. I'm talking about the kind of people who would chase a scout (a scout!) with non-stop w+m1 until they die.
You should bring back discomfort zone
Well, if you are fast, you can actually crit with the axtinguser and flaregun, since a pyro does stay on fire for a fraction of a second.
Using the reserve shooter will drastically help this, or you can airblast them then shoot.
Alternativly, just m1 them back, or retreat while shooting flaregun shots
Me neither, I just figured that they might seemingly work like hats do glitchwise.
It's easy to do the puff and sting but it's easier to hold the left mouse button and strafe around people.
Backburner is the most comfortable, especially for new Pyros.
it still kinda does, since its the only flamethrower to hav the same daage as the stock, since all flamerthrowers where buffed by 10%, it was never debuffed, the stock was buffed
The best thing in Star's videos are all the people saying in chat "lol so obvious that it's a fake star, what a moron"
Buff banner + pocket kritz medic = oh wait that's already a video
Go look up on the official TF2 wiki the change log for the backburner. When they first introduced it it gave +50 health, but they took that out quickly.
This is my second time watching this and I finally just realized STAR_ might've been referencing IFC Yipes at 9:40.
The Backburner is under appreciated.
Next episode needs to be discomfort zone heavy.
Will you make a favorite loadouts vid? thanks :)
Then they dropped the health bonus and added an expensive airblast, now the W+M1 tactic was more difficult but the pyro could now fight soldiers, but now it was mostly used as a training tool and by then the degreeser had been introduced and all the pro pyros had switched to that. So only people who were still getting used to the class or that didn't know that the degreeser was better used the backburner and as such the stigma has remained.
Star..you have influenced me to say 'derpy pyro fight" xD
Only problem with that is you have to use the soda popper. Meaning, if you miss or have to reload ever, you're screwed.
This item set is actually great. You get the extra damage of the Backburner, you can use the Manmelter to put out teammates so you don't use up your Bb ammo, and because this is a roamer loadout the Back Scratcher will come in handy. Plus now you can burn AND scratch backs while melting men!
True about noob pyros not being able to use airblast. But truthfully sometimes w+m1 is your only option that will work. I Usually go about 2 n 1 and about 20 to 35 points most normal length maps so I'm definitly not bad but ya know... That w+m1 works if you know the rest, like the w+m1 retreat flare gun or hide by a corner axestinguisher
My fave pyro loadout
It lost its damage buff in June last year, conveniently only a few days after this video was released, so it has become a little bit less brainless.
I remember I used to LOVE the backburner,then I used the Degreaser.
Never used the backburner again.
Back scratcher is ridiculous on Degroot Keep. If you think about it, there it has no drawbacks, making it an insanely good upgrade.
That's most likely what Valve intended, but when pyros that have a backburner come in contact with an enemy they hold down left click and go in circles around the person trying to get their back.
his name in this video was STAR_ and people didnt want to believe it was him
