Obscure Demoknight TF2 Facts (And Bugs)

- Demoknight TF2 is a buggy disaster, let's talk about it!
It seems every new thing I learn about this class is either a bug or a weird mechanic the game never tells you, so in this video I'm listing a few things that most Demoknight players won't know about. Extending charge duration with the Persian Persuader, the obscure 90% Rule, and a hidden feature which doesn't work as intended!
This was my first attempt at commentary. More will come if you guys end up liking it. I got a bit inspired by some of AsumSaus' content, so if you like Melee (not swords, I mean Smash Bros) then you should probably watch their videos.
Here's a link to some of defaultUsername's research about the broken Extender feature. This is featured at the end of the video. txti.es/62quw
There are some rumours going around that swinging and THEN charging can cause the Extender feature to work. If this is true I will talk about it in another video.

I'm sorry for being negative on your otherwise good video, but the music should not be louder than your voice.
I agree with that. Great video nonetheless.
Nah, that's a valid criticism.
That is genuinely a major issue in an an otherwise great video.
@@Ozionian constructive criticism, whats that?!!>!!>!!?!??!?!?!

Yeah, the audio levels are quite hard to get right. Different voice clips can sometimes be different volumes and the video can sound different depending on what you're watching this video with. It sounded fine on my headset, but the feedback seems to be telling me otherwise.
Noted. I'll fix this next time. I've also added subtitles to this video to help you guys understand what the heck I'm saying
4:30 The persuader is so unloved that no one knew about the bug. Poor persuader.
nobody seems to know about your comment.
The persuader has always been my favorite sword and I see more Persian persuader demos now more than ever
Bruh
poor-suader
Not a bug
Inb4 people start abusing Persuader Infinite recharge tech in pubs for the next week or so.
well time to abuse my ks persian
Only infinite if they even know where the ammo packs are.
well we still have pyro class who can drop garbage by clicking m2 from the cliff
PLZ NO PATCHERI O
Too late :D
"Hold down right click the whole time"
Could probably make some Persuader Knight focused surf maps based on this.
Charles Champ or a specific gamemode. Imagine 6v6 demoknights flying around specific map at Mach 5 and trying to hit each other
@@Humanoidmp
We need this.
I’ve been telling people that the Persian is the best sword. They laughed at me. LOOK WHOS LAUGHING NOW!
Truly we weren’t worthy. My deepest apologies on behalf of everyone for doubting you
I was the number 1 ranked degroot keep player with the persuader and huntsman. Its literally been broken forever and me and a buddy would 2v10 with it literally against good players.
I feel really bad. I always loved the weapon but i wasnt very sadisfied about stats.
@@g.h7657 Ranked Degrot keep?
Yeah, I was in the chess club.
everyone on the team: "solar, now might be a good time to start weaponizing bugs."
solar: "that's my secret you guys.. i AM the bugs"

I AM THE STATE
What state are you? My state is cursed.
hold up so the MVM samurais that I've simply been jokingly referring to as "the cheaters" for actual years when playing with others are actually working as INTENDED?? my eyes have truly been opened
Pro tip equip the katana and one hit ko then, if you candodge his infinite range melee
It's partially that, but additionally, being giant extends your melee range
5:47 "Blue team wins" , "They succesfully defended until time ran out" Wait a minute
TF2 at its finest
The team names are somehow swapped.
@@mememan2404 yeh it possible i tried it once
Name swap, was probably using tournament mode and didn't change named to something other than RED and BLU
I looped over that part several times before I realized red team was called "BLU" and blue team - "RED"
I'm imagining a demoknight with Samus's melee extender, and I'm trembling in fear.

SolarLight the next sword should just bigger and make people laugh like the mittens and after 2 taunt kills it becomes just stock with *e x t e n d e d r a n g e*
@@squidsseeghosts4533 no, with every head you collect it gets bigger in the demos hand and its range increases with every head
@@SolarLight fuck it. demo with a command grab
Melee is broken part II
Yahiamice I’ll comment because no one commented, I gotchu fam
YAHIAMICE-SAMA!!! TEACH ME YOUR WAYS!!!!!
omg is the guy with 6000 hours. I'm looking foward to that amount of hours, but also not. also, yes, it's broken AS FUUUUU- melee register favors agresors, teamates eat melee hits, melee makes sounds but not damage sometimes and is calculated by enviroment hitboxes, not the hit hitboxes, so a scout has same melee hitbox than a heavy. VERY WELL DONE DEEP MECHANICH.
this is serius since the shild made for bashing increases damage the more you charge and you can have extra charge whit this it may allow for super charges where a shild bash insta kills
@@anotherwea6692 I'm talking about Super Smash Brothers Melee for the Nintendo Gamecube
Solarlight out here wishing the extra range actually worked, im here wishing normal range actually worked

"bug or a feature"
*BETHESDA FLASHBACKS*
it just works.
Is rocket jump a bug or a feature? Both, kind of. It was a bug in Quake, and thus Quake Team Fortress as well. In TF2, it received official status as a feature, becoming one of the core mechanics of soldier.
whoa, I always held right click for the entire charge and I thought the ammo packs extending your charge were an intended effect. I probably should've told someone lol
It's the messi

The demoman drinks so much that he's literally broken reality and warped it to his will.
This video proves the Demoman/knight is the strongest class in the game.
He is also the strongest class because he is the only one that can say the N-word
I have a theory that the Demoman caused the big bang so he could get a drink.
I mean, he survived his eye becoming a demon multiple times, so I guess demo is some sort of godly being
@@sandtrap175 indeed
Imagine Demoman's voice actor having to scream like 10 different times for when you charge
The evolutionary discover of the persuader: hold down right click for more charge
Boom.
NOOO YOU CAN'T JUST CHANGE THE MAIN FUNCTION OF AN EXPLOSIVE CLASS TO RELY ON MELEE, WHAT ABOUT BALANCING?????
Solar: haha funny demonstration man go AAAAAAA
BOOM
You forgot AAAaaaa-AAAAAHH
Solar: haha Persuader goes zoom
haha funny sword go swing
zoomers shouldn't exist.
Wait, what. I thought you were supposed to hold down M2. I didn't know charging worked if you let go of M2, and I've been playing since I bought the game for $20.
u were the only one doing the persuader tech among us for the past 4 years :)
I do the same for demo knight, I just didn’t use the persuader. Sad I never equipped it now.
I have another breaking news: hitman’s heatmaker doesnt require full charge to activate
@@Humanoidmp подожди что блять, повтори
@@Humanoidmp wait what?
I can practically smell the persian perauader specific rollouts now.
Wait so you're telling me that I can be a demotrain without the need for a times ten server?
Well if you somehow make a trace of ammo or building gibs for you to charge. Yes
A drunk scottish cyclops pretending they're a train and using broken parts of machinery as a track honestly seems pretty standard for TF2.
"The Persuader can increase Charge duration with ammo packs."
-So what you're saying is.... The Clade.... Clah.... Longer Charge Sword is now even more outclassed.
;-;
not gonna beat hybrid knighting with it tho
No, instead now irish claymore is used for trimping and reliability.
Lets say goodbye to the Clade in solars videos
the claymore has the advantage of consistency and enabling trimps that would be impossible with any other sword
Can't wait to see everyone playing Democar after this vid
I spit out my scrumpy when i read Democar
D e m o t r a i n
Using the fuel of the other democars to keep charging

9 democar pileup
(makes a channel aboot trimping and charges)
suddenly: "hey guise, did u know that there is a glitch that maeks demoman run veyr hihg?"
5:23 imagine being a pyro and seeing another pyro and being like "Finally, a worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary!" Only to see a drunk demolitionist running light speed at you with a boat's steering wheel and a giant sword
persuader tech: discovered
price: haha price go brrrr
confirmation that demoknight tf2 is the most broken class in game
pyro presses m2
broken in the most literal sense of the word - the class is basically based on bugs, rather than being particularly overpowered
Tbh even demonstration man himself, sticky jumping was originally a bug so we had a great chain reaction start there
demoman born from bugs confirmed
*Spy backstabs your shoulder while in your FOV
Did you put in smash bros melee music because this was about the melee class? If so, I both love and hate you.
Thank you SolarLight TF2, now I can charge across the map forever and get hackusations.
Good to know demoknight is just as broken as the other 9 clessed
I actually do something that I didn't even realize would benefit from the extra range on charge swings. I use the tide turner, and in close combat you can swing and then immediately charge, swing comes out after you've already covered some distance from the charge and -doesn't cancel it-, land the hit and swerve away, either running off or rounding back for another minicrit swing. It's a bit hard to land unless the enemy is backpedaling though. Really nice for skullcutter too.
me: [see's persian persuader hidden feature]
[Thomas the tank engine theme intensifies]
When the demo got hit at the start of the charge he didn't move he just stood there screaming because he could of lost his life
demoknight fact: the word demoknight is made of two words "demo" and "knight"

I love the fact that in the end says "it also still has a small chance to fail for an unknown reason".

Friendship ended with Claidheamh Mòr
Now persian persuader is my best friend
nice reference.
*physics wants to know your location*
It only makes sense that a sub-class focused on the most jank system in TF2, the melee system, is chocked full of bugs.
that persuader infinite charge is the most innovative thing since einstein's equation
How to tell this is a recent video;
Someone has an "RIP Rick May" tag in their username when they get Pursuader'd.
Or look at the time it is uploaded?

how do you do the demo crab?
Its the last one of his kind.
@@jefflee4527 Equip a one-handed melee weapon like the pan or the persuader and a shield. Then, hold crouch and tap in any direction repeatedly or just walk, they have different effects. Bonus points if you look up. People will see your left arm vibin like it's its last day on earth.
I never infact heard from them before! :o

True. lol
2021: A wild demo update appeared!
I’d love to see someone use it with the gibs from sentry’s in MvM, thanks for the vid!
I used to see MvM Engies quickly placing and destroying their buildings during the setup time over and over to have more metal for the next wave. Now I know what to do the next time I see that
Demoknight: (Is the bug.)

Imagine playing normally, then you saw a flying demoman that is gonna kill you at any second
Me: Wow, this game is a buggy, glitchy mess!
Also me: Maybe i should download tf2 again
Whenever a knowledge bomb like this gets dropped i always feel sad i haven't found it out before everyone knew about it.
Now the dark times for all snipers have come.
Very reminiscent of an AsumSaus video, and a great video in general. Good stuff.
Bruh we new about the right click hold for persian persuader back in 2014 on the old Trees Fortress server. I genuinely didn't know everyone didn't know about that until watching this video recently. Wow
Shrodinger's Bug: makes sense, but doesn't.

This music + gameplay
is epic only for me?
This is a really well made video. Funny, polished, informative, 10/10
I always used the persuader, and I knew there had to be something which allowed for longer charges but this... this is revolutionary. I thank you for this gift.
5:46 "BLU WINS! BLU successfully defended and time ran out!"

Asumsaus style content? Very nice Solarlight.
I have a strange Persian persuader that I haven't used in while and after hearing your mindblowing tip about it I guess it back to using it
Demoknights: "I might be a mistake, but I'm the biggest mistake you've ever made."
We did it boys, the Claidheamh Mòr is no more!
*crab rave*
You are the first tf2 youtuber I’ve ever seen mention fortress forever. Its nice to see it get some recognition even if it’s just an offhand comment.
Solar, I seriously have to thank you. You restarted my love for TF2, specifically demoknight. Despite the bots and hackers, I'm glad to finally get back to my roots again. Thank you.
What was the song he used at the end. It sounded so good
You mean the chiptune song during the longcharge segment? Was wondering the same thing, sounds very familiar. 🤔Would be nice if Solar credited songs in his videos.
Hans Zimmer - Time
I highly recommend the original
The extender is that a ssbm Samus reference?
yes
This reminds me heavily of am Asumsaus vid. And I love their content.
Thx so much for telling me this about the perswader
What game did you say at 0:28 why its called trimping? Im interested
Fortress Forever
Here's a video of it
ua-cam.com/video/zx4Tzin80sU/v-deo.html
4:28 I knew that 4 years ago
my mind : no you don't
After watching this video, I got myself a Persuader.
Can confirm infinite charge tech is OP, can get extended charges on DeGroot Keep with this and have been more consistently topscoring as well.
Persian Persuader best sword.
I already knew about the persuaders longer charge glitch, which when i played demoknight i thought you needed to hold down right click.
SolarLight: makes this video
Script kiddies: Write that down, write that down!
omg i got first comment demonight tf2 omg wew
you're 3rd
This gives off big AsumSaus vibes and i love it
Great video and I knew something was amidst with the Demoknight.
0:50
"Demoknight isn't affected by bugs, Demoknight is the bugs" hits harder and is way more funnier than it should be.
I've always loved the persuader and damn you've let me enjoy it way more now :)
Demoknight extending his charge to chase down a scout is terrifying
You've literally changed the demo knight meta.
A legend truly.
i knew about the "hold right click to extend charge" mechanic from messing around in instant resupply servers, but never put two-and-two together to realize it would also apply to the Persian Persuader :o
even in 2020, new demoknight tech is made!
Amazing, keep up the great informative videos! Subbed :)
I love that you use Earthbound music. brings nostalgia back
Hahaha that persuader bug is sick nice video lad
Amazing video love the change
Man you're sharing some secret knowledge here, this is epic
I can explain it, so it resets the charge when collecting ammo packs, so it would make a separate charge but without the right click hold, it would only go for the length of one charge because there's no further imput.
The remia shout out made my day
I wish i played tf2 earlier, the holding down right click/spam clicking was the first thing i thought of with the persian persuader
I have personally had encounter the extended pick up charge before, many many times in fact, specifically when in spawn, yet I never realise that it's a bug.
Simply because I've always been the kind who always hold down m2\charge command!
This is certainly very enlightening :D
Awesome video
Amazing editing
You are truly the god of demoknights and this is our holy book.
This whole video screams “I want a tf2 character in smash”
I love that reference in the document.
