- The first of a new series where I propose to you what the best loadout for a class is and then try to justify my decision. The first episode had to be Demoman but as we start to look at the other classes this is going to get really difficult!

Secret Demoman with big eyes by Simoster
A special thank you to all my Patreons
◕‿◕ - Hry
can we just talk about how toofty baited a sniper into shooting a sticky so he could waltz right in while the sniper was reloading
big brain hours
I saw that it was beeg brain
The heavy update:
-removed heavy
-gave sniper the Scottish resistance
-gave demo a glock
-updated locazation ion files
thats the snipers fault, the sticky wasnt even a threat to him
when was that
Thank you Doomoman, I will do my daily prayer before going to bed.
I love how matter of factly he said "Boomstick go boom" like a lawyer quoting the defendant being charged with threatening to bomb an Air Canada Airport at 2:35 PM on a Monday
That’s oddly specific...

Nice.
Lol I will pay 69 thousand 69 dollars and 69 cents for that caber I want it because cabers just taste so f*cking good
It seems i am not an only tactical nuclear demoman!
3:41 You can actually do that with the Half zatoichi , the damage penalty only affect you when the weapon is considered "active". In fact you can avoid receiving self damage if you quicly switch your weapon , if the Half Zatoichi is still is in "deploy" animation you don't take damage
I wondered about this weapon a lot. Could you charge a medic by swapping this weapon in and out? Similar to the Boston basher for scout.
@@mesplin3 Technicaly yes but instead of losing your health over time with the boston basher , you lose a quarter of your health
@@mesplin3 yes it can be used like that to stop you losing ammo and i would do that myself but the lack of bleed makes it worse than the basher as you cant have another weapon active while uber building if an enemy ambushes you
Thank goodness
Iron bomber, tide turner, and claidheamh mòr is probably my favorite loadout. Mobility bursts with the sword and shield for escapes and pursuits along with the reliability of the iron bomber just makes for a fun gameplay loop as demo.

I'd love to see a new grenade launcher that's basically the reverse of the Iron Bomber. Pills would bounce and roll waaay more than stock, but fuse time would be longer. Probably needs some other quirks to make it more interesting, but basically I'd like to expand on the Demoman's ability to spam into places without direct line of sight at the cost of head-to-head combat capability.
isnt that just the loose cannon.
@@sublimelime6354 loose Cannon explodes way faster than stock launcher
@@sublimelime6354 not really
Honestly that should be a good way to see if a gun is balanced, reverse the stats, and see if the reversed gun is any good
@@lambsauce5312 You reverse the Ambassador : You deal critical hit on body shots, but only at long ranges. Also the accuracy is bad for the first shot fired but perfect for every shot after.
3:45 The Half-Zatoichi is really good if you have a pocket medic, you can use it similarly to the Boston Basher, damaging yourself in order to build uber. The pan is still better in most situations but in that situation the half-Zatoichi pretty powerful.
Stickies do that already though without sacrificing your melee
@@exokirby8490using the stickies for that removes you sticky trap
@@kirbmon64-mj5pl if you are with a medic I wouldn’t expect the normal demo to be hiding behind a trap
@@exokirby8490 casual is a hell hole
@@exokirby8490 medic or not, a large part of demo's job is still area denial. any good demo would tell you that. stickies aren't as good for building uber as the katanna because they drain your ammo pool. leaving you with less in the reserve or one to 2 stickies short in the clip if someone surprise rushes you. it's not a "sacrifice of the melee" slot because demo doesn't have any alternatives that are much better anyways. There is no escape plan or powerjack or anything of that sort for full demoman melee's. so you are not sacrificing much.
I enjoy all stock, but I'd say the best loadout is the one you have fun playing with :D
so scorch shot it is then right?
why yes, I am satans sentient crap.
Yesss
Thanks, no need to watch vid now

@@Squiggypie well done. You have discovered the secret doomoman. He has watched your progress closely and brings you good luck and one toof buck point. Te~c apply. (also idk of its te~c it was written weirdly)
Toofty: the speed on the quicky bomb launcher is kin-
Me: SpEeD is EvErYtHiNg
I think the Engineer, Spy, and maybe Pyro video would be very interesting, since most of their unlocks are very unique, changes how the class plays, and are just as worth using as most of the other options.
3:40 Actually, because of the zatoichi deploy speed, you can rapid switch to it and take no damage. I know this from playing soldier.
Yeah, and if you're playing with it and wants a bit of health, just do a rocket jump or sticky jump, change do the zatoichi and then free health
I just don't use it because I find myself in a lot of situations where I need my melee fast, and the bottle has a 100% crit rate, so it's pretty useful lol (and I like the taunt)

toofty: removes bottle
scoober: "am i a joke to you?"
I genuinely love the format and quality of your videos. Really hoping you make it big soon.
If I would be stuck with a single demo loadout for all eternity, I'd take the loose cannon over stock. I think it's that much more enjoyable.
The best loadout is the Stickybomblauncher, of course.
Great idea for a series, can't wait to see the rest of 'em!
the hell, i just watched your scout loadout video and it was literally my loadout and now it's your Demoman video and again it's my loadout, happy to see that we have the same taste
Boy do I love toof buck points. I wish I knew what they did.
It's like pokemon cards when your in elementary school
You dont use them yet, but you collect them all
I love how the credits at the beginning there were names like "toof toof ,skinny toffty" ect i love it
Fun and really informative!
Nice Video Toofty
Love that bit of cheeky play at 1:17. Solid vid
For scout the weapons I play with are:
Stock scattergun
Stock pistol
F I S H
Same but I use the sign and capper for my reskins
I like the pretty boy's pocket pistol
Scatter
Cum
Funny paper
Scattergun, Coom/PB Pocket Pistol, aka Peanutbutter pocket pistol, and its either the Wrap Assassin, Boston Basher or Fish, the Fish can give guaranteed crits on hit but your not using your melee too much sadly, and the Boston Basher can make ubers faster while the Wrap Assassin is probably the worst of these three sadly. Guaranteed Crits are way better than bleed though and Medics in casual matches are like, 0.5% chance so Fish it is.
I use that but change the stock pistol with funny wing pistol
4:07 found the secret doomoman my life is complete
:D
Nice video, I hope you'll make this for every class, subscribed.
just coming back tf2, and i gotta say, i really missed watching your videos :)
glad you're still making content, keep up the good work!
Alternate video name: Toofty explains why stock good, caber bad for 19 minutes
I’d say the best hybrid knight loadout is the iron bomber, tide turner, and claidheamh mor. The best loadout is the iron bomber, sticky bomb launcher, and *frying pan.*
I love using tide turner and scotmam's skull cutter because I can't shoot those darn scouts and it's funny.
I also sometimes use eyelander but thats on specific KOTH maps
I HAVE DISCOVERED THE SECRET DOOMOMAN

Great video! I hope you see this and reply. Mostly, I agree with all you said :) The only thing I see differently, is the Scotsman's Skullcutter. The damage bonus allows you to oneshot soldiers and demoknights with a crit (and it kinda always crits lol). Especially the latter is really dangerous, so that comes in handy. And both of them are quite good at moving around quickly, so they often appear right in front of you without expecting it. The reduced speed is not really much of an issue, as you usually just swing it once anyways (you either die or kill the opponent). The holstering speed is indeed a bit of a pain, I guess you didn't even mention it in the video. But, it also has an increased range! So you can just move back a little, swap to your melee, and then kill. So the holster speed and the range kinda balance each other out. Overall, that is why I prefer the Scotsman's Skullcutter! :3
Great video, would definitely be interested in seeing scout or soldier next.
The flash on the screen was: well done, you have discovered the hidden doomoman he has watched your progress closely and brings you good luck and one roof buck point. T&c apply.
When you detonate a sticky, and land a pill at the same time, it’s just OOOOHHHHHHH
I would love to see the development of this series:). As a medic main I cant wait for you to say CrossBow + stock + übersaw
"a really interesting series." sure... For every class except medic lol
If we’re going by the same rules as this one, you can only choose one setup until the end of time, then heavy is extremely easy as well. Tomislav, Sandvich, GRU (or Dolokahs bar and fists of steel if the botpocalypse is still ongoing until the end of time)
@@SuperNuketown2025 I think heavy is a bit more up to personal preference though -- there's still quite a bit of debate as to whether the Tomi or stock is objectively better, ditto the sandwich, banana and dalokhos, and some will still argue that the gru isn't worth using after the nerf. I guess Tomi, sandwich and gru is still probably what most people will use, but there's a bit more variability compared to medic.
@@SuperNuketown2025 stock is better
Stock, sandvich, GRU
-sincerely, a heavy main.
Very cool vid my man. Might watch it soon.
subscribed loving the vids so far i hope you reach 100k ❤❤❤
I fell in love with the claid/tide ironbomber hybrid demoknight that Solarlight showed, I can't get back to a sticky ^^ this feels perfect in all situation, finishing kills in backlines and coming back, escaping, trimping, this is perfection to me
I enjoed this video so much and can't wait for the second episode will come out.
I'd love to see medic, although I believe I know the answer. The two weapons that are 100% my first choices are the crossbow and ubersaw. There's almost no downsides for using them, and the crossbow is better than the syringe guns if you're confident in your aim. Now, what I'm not so sure about, is the medi-gun vs the quick-fix. See, in public lobbies I tend to use the quick fix. Its much more reliable when you don't know everything about your team. However, if I was in a match with my personal team, its a hard choice. The quick fix allows for quick saves with its ult, pulling your team back from a near-death push, while uber allows for powerful pushes that can disrupt the enemy team entirely, if your team works together properly. I'd probably go with stock medi-gun on attack, and quick-fix on defense.
The one reason I love the lock n load is because it feels better for pills not to roll in the air so much.
And the reason I don't use it is because it is so cursed
I mean cmon think about it:
-It has 3 grenades in 2 barrels
-you load all of them in the lower one
-and they all shoot from the top barrel
It melts my brain.
My favourite way to play demo is a subclass i call stickyman where you use the wee booties , the quickiebomb launcher or stock and any melee (golf club preffered) its basically like playing a speedier demo with pipes you can detonate at will , really fun tbh
I dare you to try Pyro next
Phlog, Gas Passer, Third Degree. Ez choice
Flamethrower, Scorch Shot, Powerjack
@@Alex-qn9og Y E S
Rainblower, scorch shot, lolichop
Stock, shotgun, homewrecker
I love those Pyro
That ending was just mind boggling lol.
The bottle could also be substituted for the Scottish handshake since it's just a reskin
I generally go hybrid, but yeah I can agree with your suggestion when it comes to good old reliable
Loch n Load, Charging Targe, Bottle
lol hybridknight
Nice! The only thing that annoys me is that you mention "SLIGHTLY better" on the iron bomber, i don't blame you because a lot of people fell in zesty jesus video and thought it wasn't a big thing, but in the grand scheme of things it's way more op and easier than any grenade launcher, and there is a big difference between needing to hit the collision hull and needing to hit the player's model, as anyone would know. it's really funny how in the zesty jesus video you can even see how it starts literally exploding after colliding with the air and then zesty just tries to convince people by "the difference in cursors position is incredibly small!!". and also, as i said it needs to hit the collision hull, that it's a BOX, a STATIC box, that doesn't rotate and that its corners are very big, had you ever missed a shot in the corner of a player and somehow it explodes earlier even if it was about to pass by the enemie? well, you know why, if you are struggling to hit pipes EVEN using the iron bomber, maybe you could try to hit the corners of the collision hull, just remember it's diagonal.
i like how this comment changed from being a correction to the video to a mini advice to people that has difficults times aiming pipes.
Great video! I’d love to see scout next :)
As of recently I used the Iron bomber + Sticky Jumper combo and oh boy is it satisfying hitting people with the double grenade as you fly by in the air at Mach 5
For scout in my opnion:
Scattergun
Pistol
The sword
Nah, more like bfb, critacola, sandman
@@dinonuggiesguy4847 The stock bat
@ScOrPiOn or any comp player in that matter
I usually go with the Iron Bomber, the Chargin Targe, and the Scottish Handshake (just cause I think it looks better than stock)
Yup agreed. This is my go 2 tryhard loadout. My other sets play around shields so yes
Half Zatochi is my go to Demoman melee.
The health on kill is super useful if you’re finishing someone off
4:06 thank you for the toof buck but never show me that terrifying creature again.
I agree, that is an abomination
Thank you based Doomoman, I'm proud to say your two eyes look fabulous this evening.
Stock launcher, sticky jumper, and either pan or eyelander. I use it just for the fact that with the stock doing 100 damage on pipes, your able to do a lot of damage fast, and with the ability to jump away to health packs and ammo packs, so with the option to have stat increases with every head collected, you become a scary class.
Grenade launcher/Iron Bomber, Tide Turner, and Eyelander/ It's variants.
I would say stock or iron bomber on how reliant of its damage, Tide to get out of sticky situation or to close the gap, then the Eyelander buffs when you get heads from close combat and could also be a nice speed boost and health boost to use for either situation
I use the loose canon a lot. When I got good with the timing I was one shotting a lot of classes
Let's gooo, my main loadout!
Toofty teaching kids that bottles are the same as frying pans since some time in the past to 2020
4:07 WELL DONE YOU HAVE DISCOVERED THE SECRET DOOMOMAN.
HE HAS WATCHED YOUR PROGRESS CLOSELY AND BRINGS YOU GOOD LUCK AND ONE TOOF BUCK POINT. TᏋC APPLY.
Id love to see a heavy video next
Big russian man needs some love
If this is going to be a series, I think I already know how the medic episode will turn out.
Nawlejlz pawur
For medic I have a friend who used to be a medic main and he said the best load-out for medic is crusader crossbow medi-gun and OBVIOUSLY the Uber saw
imo the best medic loadout always uses crossbow but secondary and melee is more decided by context. imo all the mediguns are equally valuable, there is no best overall medigun because as a support, you should always be using the secondary that supports your team the most in the current situation. medigun is a good default choice, but it especially shines in large pushes. kritzkreig is a fantastic choice when your dps is reliable and sentries arent being too oppressive. quick fix is very strong if you are a secondary medic and the strongest for healing your whole team. vaccinator is incredibly versatile and is very effective against projectile heavy teams. ubersaw almost always the best option, however the solem vow synergizes better with faster charging secondaries (quick fix and vaccinator).
Nice my exact loadout :)
and U can switch rapidly with the critana cuz it isnt realy deployed if u continue
as long as you are doing well with it, it is good for u
I think the cool thing with demo is that most of his weapons are fairly balanced and your playstyle defines what guns you play.
The demoman at 4:07 says: “well done. You have discovered the secret doomoman. He has watched your progress closely and brings you good luck and one toof buck point. T&C apply.”
My favorite seminar load out is iron bomber, tide turner and nessies nine iron. I like the extra mobility with the ability to deal good amounts of damage when needed
I enjoyed this video, and I do agree with your conclusion. However, I think it's a bit of a cop-out to exclude demoknight from this video. The subclasses are what gives each class (well, some of them) some complexity, and I think it would be interesting to hear you compare them, despite their differences.
I have discovered the secret doomoman.
I use the Loch n Load, the chargin targe and default melee.
IDK how to use stickies
Yeah me too
Pyro:
Primary: Sock: Afterburn is extreamly usefull in some situations and you don't have that with the degreaser and the deploy speed is realy fast on stock too
Secondary: Flaregun (Only if you know how to crit with it) or panic attack because is the most efective on short range.
Melee: Backscratcher on paper is an ok weapon but on practice HAS NO DOWNSIDE since you can heal more with health pack and medic barely heal pyros but if you are an angel and heal the pyro you can farm Über, and if you have to heal him quick use the crossbow, that doesn't affect the backscratcher's stats
4:07 ok doomoman wheres my toof buck
Loch and Load, tide turner, clademorih. There's your answer
That's just nasty
@@jonathanallison6270 I hate the roll RNG on the Iron bomber, so I don't use it. That's it
@@zachstarattack7320 Is that worse than no rollers at all?
I really dislike all 3 of these weapons quite frankly
But I respect your opinion
Personally I use the loose cannon, sticky bomb launcher, Scotsman skullcutter
@@jonathanallison6270 Yeah I would use the Loose Cannon for fun sometimes, but I love demoknight trimping and I HATE RANDOMNESS in my video game. Even for the iron bomber, I'm frickin' not using it with that randomness
@@jonathanallison6270 I use iron bomber, sticky jumper, then the pan. That or iron bomber, quicky bomb launcher, and a pan.
Sticky launcher/Quicky Launcher, that's it.
4:07 ok toofty, these bincoulus loadouts are getting RIDICULOUS!
its really fun to use the loose cannon + tide turner + ham/bottle combo
I’d say the engineer would be interesting to do nect
Stock, tide turner, and the caber
Soldier: Stock Rocketlauncher, Buff Banner, Disciplanary Action
Loose Cannon is my favorite tbh, especially paired with the eye-lander + tide turner
I feel like toofty is trying to grind for an achievement when he mentions demo knight and then says “but that deserves a video of his own”
In short, where is 10 stages of demo knight toofty please I want to know what stage I’m at
This is my exact load out, including pan
3:36 actually you could because the sheathing penalty doesn't come into effect until you have fully holstered the weapon. Doing this quick switch thing wouldn't effect anything.
"Even if the hitbox was fixed"
Valve: Your wish is our command.
Us: Fix TF2
Valve: What's that?
Bruh The Best Loadout is Loose Cannon, Base Jumper, and Ullapol Caber
*That Was A Joke Lads*
SolarLight would say something different
Oh hey! It's you again in the comment section!
AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Iron bomber with stock and pan. Or the tide turner and clehead-whatever thing. The loadout which i use mostly.
Thoughts:
The pp music really got me lmao. Also i literally just bought a specialized killstreak grenade launcher and i love it so i stick with that. I really like the bit when you talk about missing it makes me laugh. I tend to use stock with horesmans headcutter or bottle.
Also the heavy episode is gonna be interesting... TOMISLAV IS BETTE-- NO MINIGUN IS GOUD BECUSE IS MIRE DAMGR
