@@Nezerac_ yes it is, I have no idea why people made such a fuss about it.

Overwatch is a solid game that I've been enjoying a lot even though TF2 is my favourite game of all time. There's no need to fight over 2 very different yet still solid games.
$5 says that gasoline soaked enemies do count as wet enemies but TF2's spaghetti code prevents it from happening.
Wet don’t wet enemies take less fire damage
@@bennnymiddleton40 what
@@skiplet87 That's honestly the most likely reason why
Wrong. In the jungle inferno pre-release patch notes for weapons it said they intentionally made it to not combo with the neon Annihilater.
@@diegodankquixote-wry3242 wow
Rename the Gas Passer to "Kerosene Canteen". Then, make it so that when you throw it on the ground, you can light it on fire with your flame thrower to create an area denial burning floor that lasts 8 seconds and deals a small amount of fire damage per tick. Would make for a great defense alternative to using flares.
So, the tfc napalm grenade?
Tbh i wished that it were like that, but volvo really hates pyro, and it given him a cantern of diesel
Then make it flammable on its own and bam! You invented a molotov.
Really, give pyro a molotov, it'll be fun.
@@sonairys929 they removed grenades to avoid spam, liberally (i will leave it like that lmao) every class was a demoman
Idea: make the "kerosene canteen's" passive charge only 10 seconds. Also rename it again to "kerosene kanteen"
How about a LARGE amount of fire damage per tick, to force enemies to walk around it or die?
But the damage rate doesn't apply immediately; it functions like Spitter goo from L4D2. The damage rate starts low but accelerates the longer the burning floor remains in existence. Does 10HP per second at the start, and ramps up over 2 seconds to deal 200HP per second. Enemies have a chance to get out of the way right when it forms, and if they *dare* to walk into it during the back 3/4ths of its life, they are pretty much insta-dead
“It’s great for spychecking”
So is literally every weapon he has which can deal afterburn.
I think he meant specifically in combination with the Huo-Long Heater, since you don't make a cone of burning death with your M1.
Didn't expect to see you here of all places
I have arrived here a year late to tell you about the sharpened volcano fragment.
I wouldn't say _every_ weapon that causes afterburn is good for spy checking. The Dragon's fury isn't really any better at spychecking than the shotgun.
you know a pyro weapon is bad when you have to say "its good for spys"
1:36 is no one gonna talk about how that sniper saved him by bodyshotting him, losing his momentum, making the soldier miss his prediction rocket?
literal 4d chess, move very obviously that you get shot, but not so predictably that they can get an easy headshot. thus preventing inevitable death from the rocket.
more likely just an accident
@@Niiue shhh

They are a sniper main. That’s like a trolldier loving mini sentries.
No one likes that weapon. Even people who use it secretly hate themselves for using it. Pyro mains who don’t use it hate those who do for giving them a bad name. Even I, as a heavy main, the class that’s probably least impacted by it, hate it.

The gas passers downsides imply that the effect is too powerful to constantly have available. Which means that they should be given to the other throwables and taken off this weapon. Being on fire just isn’t a big deal in this game.

wait what? oh
ooooohhhh...
sorry, i'm retarded sometimes
@@cotulprital0241 nah it's ok, it took me a few days too
I think this weapon should be reworked in this way:
The oil passer
-Charges in 30s
-Requires 300 dmg to fully charge up
-When thrown, an oil cloud will appear covering anyone that touches it in oil.
-Enemies coated in oil receive 80 afterburn damage that cannot be cancelled with healing effects.
-On rainy maps, anyone covered in oil gets the ability to fly until the duration expires.
1. Cover yourself in oil
Unexpected unfunny moment
@Maximillian Collinghan yes
The last one was a cool throwback
@@leomassafm160 2. Wait for it to rain
I’d rather just have a Molotov cocktail weapon that breaks on impact, setting a patch of ground on fire for like 10 seconds. Standing in the fire would effectively be like taking damage from a stock flamethrower, and players who leave the fire suffer stock afterburn.
Being directly hit with the bottle would cause the target player to suffer minicrit damage from standing in the flames and from the afterburn. Holding the primary fire button would allow the pyro to charge up the range of his throw (kinda like the sticky launcher, but with less min and max distance).
How about additional bleed debuff on direct hit from molotov cocktail?
that'd be awful. imagine the spam on cart or spawn
@@h3069 By making it share the same charge mechanic as the Gas Passer, it wouldn't be able to be spammed, you'll have to think before acting

Holy shit if they just changed that, it would actually be overpowered and banned in competitive. Because it’s basically jarate bushwaka stuff that point. Should they do it? Yes please it would be so fun, but also very very broken.
The game's source code references being able to create gas pools on the ground, along with being able to light them. Needless to say, there was a missed opportunity to make a good weapon.
Step 1: Cover the enemy in oil
Step 2: Oil is lighter than water. When enemy is covered in oil, wait for it to rain.

Tbh the term "worst weapon in TF2" gets thrown around a lot for certain weapons but if I honestly had to pick one I'd say it's this. The activation time, the effect, the lack of synergy, the abundance of other secondaries that can do its job (while not the exact same way) better, etc. While you've talked about a lot of weapons that are bad, this is the only one where I think there's 0 reason to bring this weapon into any situation in normal TF2.
fire axe is the only weapon where there's literally 0 reason to bring it
gas passer you could at least theorize a one in a billion scenario it would be the best option.

@@zeeb2190 or maybe turn it into a primary to combo with your shotgun
Fix idea:
-300 damage charge
-30 second charge
-counts players as “wet”
-when thrown, the gas will linger on the ground for a while
-when the gas interacts, with anything affected by afterburn/causes afterburn(flamethrower, burning players) it will explode, causing lots of damage and afterburn
Like in Mann vs. Machine but less op
Instead of the last one how about they take mini crits from all sources of Fire damage including afterburn. And they cannot be put out by anything except the resupply cabinet and being submerged.

In Regular Match: D tier, outclassed by every other secondary weapon
That applies to a lot of weapons in MVM
I think the Gas Passer is more of an F or even a Zee tier weapon.
In MvM: So good you get kicked and blacklisted for using it.

D?
I was thinking F, tbh.
Kinda the worst scenario for the weapon. It's way too good in PvE making the mode trivial, way too bad in PvP because it's easy to counter for humans.

Apparently by utter coincidence I made my Gas Passer video at the same time Zesty Jesus was working on his own. He now thinks he has to scrap his entire video which I honestly think is a mistake because he brings a level of production quality and humor that is very difficult to come by in TF2 videos or just CZcams in general, especially for someone with what is a rather modest subscriber count in the grand scheme of things. Even if our scripts would have been similar, I know his video would end up being a much different experience to watch and he's honestly being generous when he's saying that my videos take a 10th of the effort his probably do. In case he decides to not bother uploading it, I'd at least like to direct some traffic his way by addressing the many, many commenters who had issue with my comments on the Scorch Shot. His video on that is pretty much the best you're going to find on it, so go ahead and watch it if you have any questions as to why I think it's unbalanced. I hope there's no hard feelings.

Rip the original pinned comment
he thinks he has to scrap it because you finished a video on the same weapon? do you have claim on weapon videos? this seems like something silly to worry about imo
@@myr7922Its because Zesty has released videos in the past, after other bigger tf2bers than him have made similiar or identical concepts, and people call him out for copying and being lazy when he's a stickler for how much effort and originality goes into the project. It's like making a presentation in a classroom. If a group goes before you and they did the exact same thing you did, you wouldn't want to immediately follow up with the same thing because the average person would be uninterested because they just listened about it.
Honestly that intro scene just made me question how much money those jocks would have wasted on gas. Even if the didn’t just delete themselves, they certainly deleted their bank accounts.
lh0000
Huh.
I would have thought that even _that_ much gas wouldn't have been too much for someone like them to handle.
Even when gas get to the equivalent price of milk per gallon, it's considered a little pricey, so I thought it was wasteful, but not ruinous when gas prices are normal.
Probably not as much as you would think. Even with inflation accounted, gas prices used to be significantly cheaper across the U.S than they are now. This movie most likely takes place at or just after the gasoline golden period.
Imagine getting left out even in the one part where you work. *Manmelter crying in a corner*

I feel like giving melee crits to a decently tanky ambush class that moves faster than sniper, while funny, _might_ break a few things... although with the recharged time, it's not broken.
I kinda forgot how bad it is normally. My perception of the thing's been clouded by HiGPS's balance mod where it combos with the neon and explodes for some damage on igniting.
Can confirm. Weapon is actually decent in HiGPS’ balance mod servers... same as many other weapons you’ve previously discussed 👀
I would be inclined to play on those servers if most of the other changes weren’t so questionable.
Dunno why no ones mentioned how cTF2w does both the explosion and neon, too
Bruh, if it acted like a grenade and exploded that shit would be SO GOOD.
Especially since it would pretty much be the only explosive in the game that is stationary, and cannot be disarmed or reflected. the denial potential would be huge. And it would make the _agonizing 1 minute timer_ worth it for balancing purposes.
Gass passer in casual and competitive:I am weak...
Gass passer in MvM:UNLIMITED POWER!!!
Hey, you know the jarate? the weapon the sniper STARTS with the full meter? That deals extra damage on hit? like, more then the flames which require other teammates to be effective? Yeah, the jarate also charges faster. So, this thing isn't the most balanced.
This video needs to be renamed "Good weapon academy: scorch shot"

@@meatloaf9716 I'll use whatever the hell I want in MvM.
I got kicked out of a ToD for using gas (in a wave with no tanks btw) being told "you'll contribute nothing to the team and only watch the meter" (which is a fair play, but it's not like I dont have a primary to go with it as well as the damage basically nullifying my 'uselessness')
Basically it’s use is MvM usage to cover for lack of a Demoman, as long as you have Explosive Passers. And it’s still amazing since the damage the explosion does recharges it almost instantly, so it shreds Medic, Scout, and Solder hordes
Maybe you haven't played since Valve updated the weapon years ago, or paid attention to the video. He doesn't mention it specifically, but you can see it in the gameplay. It was nerfed in MvM and no longer recharges from its own explosion damage, but as the video notes, it still does extremely well.
Yeah now its not just a brainless exlposion weapon, you have to actively recharge it quickly if you want to have it up for the next wave of medics since they like to spawn one after another. Backburner is good but i prefer the stock flamethrower tbh since it gives you the freedom to airblast the meds away and let your team take out the giant if your gas isnt up and is a good backup when your team is stupid and doesn't know how to bodyblock super scouts
mmm scottish resistance giant and horde killer......
Personally I prefer demoman as a solution to lack of demoman
Depends on mission. Gear Grinder? oh hell yes demo or sniper is far better. but i find Pyro works extremely well on twocities.
the gas passer should have been a weapon for heavy. it would allow him to finally have access to another damage type, and imagine it with the huo-long heater

An idea I had for the Gas Passer was to make it a duel-wielding weapon. The can only really needs one hand to hold and throw, so in the other hand there could be a pistol or a weaker shotgun. This allows Pyro to actually follow up on the gas.
Alternatively you could maybe make it its own kind of afterburn that stacks with the regular one, encouraging Pyros to get their flamethrowers on it.

There is ONE use in pubs for the gas passer.
Heavy pocket hives. The afterburn reduces the healing of the heavy, and this afterburn makes the medics panik and run away, so it is actually worth to troll the trollers.
just use the scorch shot then
@@mrking5437 yeh, but then you have to actually fight the heavy. With the gasser, you throw it and let your team deal with it while you chase that one fucking spy that is killing your engi friend.
My idea for the gas passer, it makes a cloud of gas that is invisible to the enemies until it is ignited by the pyro who put it down, at which point it activates for 10 seconds as it does now. Just let it play into the pyro as an ambush class
No visual / audio clue = annoying design = sorry but no, it would suck to fight against due to no counterplay
I think it should be visible to the enemies, and maybe deal damage. The concept, however, is pretty good.
something I find funny is that this is like one step away from being a overwatch ultimate-type move.
You can distinguish people if you throw a gas on them... It's the most team fortress moment I ever heard
Is it that difficult to play around the Scorch Shot considering that two Engineers can bring any Casual game to a halt with minimal coordination?
Yeah but its total shit cuz you basically dont have to aim it like you do with normal flare gun and you can stun lock with it and you cant really do that with the detonator or normal flare gun
@@auri8810 yeah Man because turtling is so fucking hard
@@auri8810 none of that would be a problem if they removed the bouncing flare. The scorch shot does chip damage if you don't take a second minicrit.
tThe real problem with the scorch shot in my opinion is the speed, if the projectile was slower it would be easier to react to and also take more skill to use.
With minim cordination snipers, loch a load demos and spies fuck them up.
The Jet pack fart joke is the best thing about tf2. Amazing.
Love the Zoolander reference!
That into had me in STITCHES!
You what?!
This is godlike in MvM
in casual bruh
What? Everything is MvM pal.

I dont know why but your comment made me chuckle so thanks
After watching this video I can determine that Fsoas hates the scorch shot
no wonder why I can never finish that one contract. Oh how I regret picking that specific one
Shitty weapons:
Backscatter, equalizer, volcano fragment, cla dah more, buffalo steak or warriors spirit, pomson 6k, overdose, carbine, or dead ringer
Cla deh more or dead ringer are not bad thoe
The thing about the Carbine is that it has FANTASTIC synergy with the Bushwacka. Activating it essentially gives you a Kritzkrieg with the Bushwacka for awhile. Kinda like an ultra-sustained Jarate. Give it a shot sometime. =)
Cla deh and dead ringer are good tho
Agree with all but dead ringer and carbine
The DR, Claid, carabine and Equalizer are not bad weapons
To think that this weapon along with a mostly unnecessary jetpack and restrictive flamethrower were Pyro's "Reward" for winning the Pyro v. Heavy update.
the beginning joke was funniest thing i ever saw
MVM: *am I a joke to you*
Do you people even watch the video ?
The Scorch Shot isn't the strongest secondary lmfao.
He's a Sniper main. Perspective is kinda lost on him.
@@Ryusuta Lol I'll give him that it's the most annoying to play against, and the easiest. But yeah, best is not something the Scorch Shot ever approaches.
He says the Scorch Shot ruins the fun for people its used against. As someone who hates Soldiers and Snipers for making the game unfun to play at all, I gladly return the favor.
@@awesomearchon9933 Soldier is the most fair and quintessential class lmao
It can easily do more damage then the normal Flaregun. All because the flare can bounce off enemies and explode. Just reduce the explosion damage and it'll no long do that.
I could see this working well in only two ways. Fighting with a sun on a stick scout and a long heater heavy
gun get better
fish: let me festivize it
It's Godtier in MVM tho you gotta admit
@@meatloaf9716 yes
Off topic, I love the scorch shot, but I think the explosion should only occur when it hits a enemy, and the explosion damage should be nerfed.
Sounds like a good trade off.
There is this one contract where you have douse people with the gas passer and you have to burn the same person who has been doused with it. And it really sucks.
ok i should admit that intro deserve to subscribe
This is specifically bad weapons academy, but I’d suggest looking at the shortstop sometime with it plz
It lets scout do everything he can do at longer range
I think something like plus 20% damage vs debuffed players(mad milk, bleeding, jarate, afterburn). the shove having 15 damage that can be plus 100% while airborne and minicrits are crits and also being a Scout core class ability on mouse 3 that can push you off walls to refresh airjumps.
@@meatloaf9716 did you not get that i said 'but' there. i know it is good, but people never realize it.
You know what i want? So like, a thing called "Dandy's Duelist" where it's a one shot spy weapon which deals a lot of damage and is a flintlock, but the thing is is it has a loooong ass reload speed, so it's a get outta jail thing. Either that or this thing called a Zion Sappa, which would be an Uzi for scout which deals shit damage normally but sprays really fast and sprays a lot of bullets, so the best way to use it is to use a crit multiplier weapon like Jarate or Mad Milk or fan o war and use it on someone! Perfect weapons for BWA!
I don't think you comprehend balancing
