2x kunai?
It's always shocked me how the Liberty Launcher was a weapon made to be training wheels for a class that's already considered to be quite easy to play compared to other classes, Especially in its 2011 incarnation where it was genuinely awful (for those that don't know it had 40% faster projectiles but 1 less rocket in the chamber). I'd still consider it to be quite bad, since using a T-Shirt cannon isn't really that effective at killing people (in fact the T-Shirt cannon might do more damage). 2011 added the majority of the weapons that exist in TF2 right now, and the Liberty Launcher is the perfect example of how adding that many weapons in that small amount of time really panned out for them.
There're some weapons that really don't justify existing, like 70% of heavy's arsenal or damage melees in general. Some are just mid or overlay functions with others for no reason
@@leonardohonorato3652 Heavy’s Arsenal doesn’t necessarily not have a reason to exist it’s just that a lot of Heavy’s weapons feel identical to use.
@@supermudkipz it's epic with the panic attack lowkey
@@ripfrickingben Not really. That’s just the Panic Attack being overpowered on Soldier. Realistically the quickswitch gimmick is done far better with other rocket launchers, sure the Liberty Launcher might be nice to have but like everything else about it what it does might be easier but in the end it’s completely superfluous.
@@supermudkipz to me that's the point: being identical is not justifying its existing. Playing stock or with Natasha is the same, therefore Natasha doesn't have a reason to exist.
Of course all the weapons have some aspect, like the slowness of Natasha, but by itself is not significant enough to mind using over stock.
2:21:46 Following up on a holiday punch hit with the Natasha is so unnecessary, it’s kind of hilarious.
2:27:31 - I'm playing FFXIV with this playing in the background and I still moved my camera around as if a spy was going to be behind me when I heard this sound
So UA-cam did the thing and actually showed me this after a TF2 binge, and now you not only have a new Subscriber, but you also this will be my new lunch/dinner video I'll keep coming back to. Keep up the great work Opal! Can't wait to see more.
7:46 this was so damn clean and you perfectly fooled him without doing anything 💀
I once saw someone in a TF2 server simultaneously arguing that the direct hit is a bad weapon and that it was an overpowered crutch. Try to wrap your head around that level of mental gymnastics.
"the direct shit is op"
It is both. Bad for its missing and overpowered because you delete people when you use it. It fs the airborne enemies, it has rndm crits and it has fast projectiles that makes it harder to counter him.
It has too much negatives when you are bad. It has too much good when you know what you are doing.
Same as vacinator which you will see a lot same as direct hit.
@@temkin9298 Pffft, okay buddy, sure.
@@purplehaze2358they're literally just saying what the video's saying
@purrpixelvevo The video says it's balanced because you can't hit every shot, even if you're a god. This Joker is saying it's always op when you're good. Not the same.
Thank you for being my soundtrack for eating, gaming, drawing, and literally everything for like a week.
It always feels so weird that the Sydney sleeper has the "no headshot" downside and yet it does have headshots but instead of a full crit it's a mini-crit
that's because the sidney sleeper originally couldn't headshot at all, the mini crits were added later.
Next time I try to watch a long video to bore myself to sleep, remind me not to choose one that's actually good and interesting because u sat here for 4 hours till almost 3 am watching this
Already watched the whole series as they released, but I'm gonna be watching it again with this
Hell ye now I have an excuse to watch the whole series bc you made it into a single video!!!
Weapon reviews in TF2 have always been a strange case to me
I love how you used the liberty launcher so much that you actually got fucking stockholm syndrome
This has been a fun upload to chip away at throughout christmas :) I think having timestamp chapters for each video/topic would be greatly appreciated
Your use of the term Over-centralizing Is over-centralized in your vocabulary lmao love the video ❤
you forgot one key case for the liberty launcher: CTF
the rocket jumper removes your ability to carry the intelligence, but the liberty launcher does.
now combine the liberty launchers reduced blast jump damage with the gunboats and suddenly you're taking barely any blast damage, while also being able to do some damage AND being able to carry the intelligence.
The Cloak and Dagger was why I chose to main spy when I first started playing. As a kid, I was too scared to run out in the open so I just hid invisible while crouch walking everywhere. But then I ended up loosing my patients and switched to the regular watch and just got over it lol
Damn this dude is dedicated
I've seen this video already, but you bet I'mma watch all of it again
One of my favorite combos is honestly the Wrap Assassin with the Mad Milk. DOT plus passive healing can be huge, even if only one person is milked/bleeding
Feel like the diamond back is really over hated. Spy is the objective weakest class in the game, killing a spy is incredibly easy. If a spy has 6 crits to spam from half way across the map, your team isn’t doing a very good job anyways.
More often than not, it’s just used by spies as a medium range kill tool or a get out of jail card, which is no more infuriating than turning a corner to a frontier Justice engi blasting me to hell and back.
A nice buff to the holiday punch could be by giving it the gunslinger treatment by getting a guaranteed crit after a certain number of punches around 3-4, this way it gives players a better chance to actually to get a laugh out even on servers with random-crits off.
I feel like that’d be way overpowered. Heavy just has to punch anybody four times, and then there’s nothing you can do to avoid it.
@@FreshestCoolAs Heavy it’s *very* difficult to get in melee range with how pathetically slow you are. The only exception is when you’re using the Buffalo Steak, which sucks ass to use. If you let a Heavy not only get that close, but let him hit you 3 times in a row, then you very much deserve to get stunned at that point.
@@jblazerndrowzy That makes sense, I was thinking that the heavy could just punch ANYBODY a few times and the stun would carry over but I can see it if you have the punch the same guy three times.
Imma watch this full video
If im gonna be honest, I’ve played stock heavy so often that the brass beast is a breath of fresh air. After using the stock miniguns with a sandvich for a decade, using the brass beast and a shotgun is genuinely a lot of fun when you’re fully leaned into it.
It’s not even that bad on offense if you really commit to it. I won’t lie and say that the way I choose to play heavy is better than the standard version, but a decade of a more standard heavy has made me want to do a different play style.
I’m fairly certain the reason the black box is disliked is that it promotes a very passive playstyle.
Y’know, I might be the only person on the planet that would prefer to be coated in mad milk if it was uh.. the alternative, because that’s hot if you ask me.
Leave. Now.
@@xoticplayz242 No.
so true tbh
thank you for this, now i have 3 hours and 41 minutes of background noise.
Rescue ranger is a great pester tool in chokeholds, engie gets a lot of random crits after all, on defense next to a dispenser it deters quite a few players if you land all 4 bolts, also great for keeping snipers from taking aim effectively
4 hours of greatness
I FUCKING LOVE THE PISS RIFLE I AM PISS SNIPER GOTTA SNORT PISS
Whats that lil jingle called in the intro of the context? sounds too joyful i need to know
Theres actually been a huge increase of stock demos using the half zat in Comp Highlander due to the self damage as a way to build uber faster
Merry Christmas everyone!!🎅🎁
Every shotgun except for the rescue ranger can one-shot kunai spies? Doesn’t the pompson also have damage shit enough not to one-tap?
A nice Christmas present from mr.opal :]
Ya know, for the vaccinator, id say a nice debuff to balance it better, is while you get the resistance of 1 type of damage, the other types of damage youre more vulnerable too.
For example. Say my heavy and I are being gunned down, so i switch to bullet resistance, but then a pyro comes around to cook us, now wed have say... a 10% vulnerability to fire, so id have to either switch to fire and risk the bullet damage, or hope we survive the pyro.
AJ: FOUR HOURS!!!
Okay, now I’m wondering what it would be like if a bunch of crit hack bots using the holiday punch would constantly punch enemies and wouldn’t stop
Just be like Morgan elis that never makes mistakes and will have PHYSICAL PAIN. If you make a single mistake, don't beat someone who got lucky with a random crit. Morgan will get physical pain because you are not 100% optimal, just like morgan.
I forgot a period don't kill me morgan because I'm not optimal and I made a mistake!
As a Roadhog player who's been through this, that and the other, I know EXACTLY why people HATE the kunai over the half zato, and has entirely to do with a couple core concepts. A lot of the phycology of players believe that if something can one-shot them (or others) without any way to "counter" it, that it's purely the weapon's fault. People can handily tolerate something being able to obliterate you off the face of the earth, but the second you make that character that can one-shot even remotely tanky, people's WHOLE phycology gets thrown through a loop, and literally the only way to appease these type of people is either gut the one-shot, or gut the healing, both of which are equally nasty changes to the weapon as a whole core concept. There's never gonna be a stat added to where you get more or less healing depending on like, how many hours the person you stabbed have. They got the stab, the used the health effectively to get out or leave, and the MGE god who believes in hyper-fixating on damage thresholds loses their shit. I'm not even gonna lie, it's an entirely entitled way of thinking about it, where you blame the spy for backstabbing your teammates instead of swallowing your pride and playing the defense, helping your team not eat shit(?!) It's like people don't recognize that true one-shots like this have down time that can be exploited with a little bit of game sense...
By my own logic though, Deadringer should recharge on kill, that thing spits in the face of this whole argument since a bad spy can just brute force his way into a single stab. Goodnight everybody~
Phlog sucks honestly, the crits just arent as valuable as airblasting. It only becomes overpowered when you start canceling the taunt and getting uber out of it.
I notice you use a lot of Marvel vs Capcom 3 references. Do you play or just enjoy?
7:48 look at the medic 😂 he just gave u that backstab
I think your eternal reward should be treated somewhat like Engineers wrenches: see what the state of the game is and pull it out when you think it’ll be useful. Like on payload this thing can be extremely good
Tbh I think the only reason people still hate the black box was because of the point in time where it could heal up to 20 health per damage source. Meaning it was possible to heal for well over 20 hp with well placed shots and could make the downside of one less rocket less prevalent when the soldier could quite easily earn 60+ hp per shot.
valid points HOWEVER *sprints away as you realize your wallet is in the right pocket instead of left*
I like how everything bad about the kunai can be said about spy in general
okay but like at 1:48:30 that sniper hit a nice frying pan
people hate the kunai and diamondback for one reason: they punish you for mistakes others make.
if you get back stabbed it's usually your fault.
if you get two shot by the diamondback or you fail to kill a spy because he is over healed is not your fault.
finally best type of sleeping video
I used to call the widowmaker the window maker, but I still call it that now because I like the name window maker more.
The YER, I've gotten away with stuff that I could never with a normal knife.
This video just shows me how you some how have a max level amount of stealth with how gamers don't react to you killing them lol.
The widowmaker: YOU are the sentry
I think that the vaccinator should have a Uber charge penalty (maybe like 10%) every time you switch resistance types.
Happy new year!
technically the direct hit would not be a direct upgrade, as you wouldnt be able to hit large groups
1:56:59 you are EVIL!
The direct hit is also really bad for advanced rocket jumping.
screws with my pogos and syncs are impossible
"Headshot kills increase charge time"
I thot it was 3 for a kill, maybe I’m tripin
I super duper extreme love the liberty launcher, it is objectively and proven to be worse than stock. But mannn combo soldier is fun as hell, reserve shooter liberty launcher is like a top 3 play style nobody expects it and it's my favorite way to shut down pyros on top of still being mobile because you don't do as much self damage on rocket jump (still not as good as gunboats)
Sadly the lower dmg makes bouncing someone on the air harder, if they fix that and also add a faster switch speed, they yeah it would be the best combo with the reserve, hell you could make it like the degreser
@@borislovothered8124This. Just give it a switch speed bonus, and now it can properly be called a combo weapon.
I really do hate the deadringer man. Even if you know he’s using it he can just ignore stealth and go fast kunai kill while being near invulnerable
"Then make it annoying." *Game Theory Logo* Wild take 🤣
This aged so badly 😭
15:50 HOW COULD YOUUUUU
No chapters, killing myself
Revenge crits are stored in the balls
Just shy of 4hrs but still helpful
7:48 man, why don't I get players like that when I play Spy?
What is this game called?
for backburner the detonator is a better combo tho
I AM PYRO.
Holy shit PYRO
@@joshdoshmosh yes!
Okay but what the fuck did your intro mean
1:56:58 shamefur dispray
i use the awper hand cos its way cooler than the stock plus i got it as a gift from a friend...
the ammo box lol 2:53:46
Pov: Your listening on low volume about to fall asleep😴
Why i dont like the vaccinater is the sound effect it makes when you uber. It is just grating on my ears.
I don’t think the problem with the LibLaunch is it being too weak; the problem is soldier in general is otherwise a bit too strong.
Ongezellig=🇳🇱
I read it as tours😂
Facts
If Thy needs a Beggar's main for help you can always ask me sir o7
hud?
I thought the widowmaker was called the window maker when I first played TF2, and I still call it the window maker now because I like that name more. Anyone else who called it that or is jt just me? And if you did...
👇
damn
Window maker.
this is not arrayseven, this is teal opal
..Comparing a half zatoichi demoknight and a kunai spy is a bit of a false equivalency.
Demoknights generally can’t one-shot multiple players in rapid succession unless under very specific circumstances, demoknights aren’t designed to go unseen, demoknights _are_ designed to be able to tank damage while spies are designed in such a way that giving them any degree of tankiness winds up incredibly frustrating, demoknights are significantly more vulnerable to knockback and _especially_ sentries.. do I need to go on?
If it is a false equivalency, then why are you suggesting that giving spy any degree of tankiness is frustrating when you're observing spy as a class itself, without comparing to any other class?
Is it because of the way the class is designed? Spy was designed with the concept of matches being full of clueless players, which isn't the case today. Disguises don't fool people anymore, invis watches are a joke to any pyro main, players constantly turn around at any moment... do I need to go on?
@@ivantan2841 A class can be bad and still be frustrating to play against. That's the inherent problem with spy, and the problem with balancing him. Even though he isn't good, he already isn't fun to play against. Making him better just makes him less fun to play against. That's why people don't like it when he has tools that let him fight back
@@screamingcactus1753 if you can get frustrated against a bad class thats clearly a skill issue
@@ivantan2841 You don't have to lose or even necessarily struggle to be frustrated by something
haha yeah
Erm, acshually, itsh 3 hoursh , 41 minutesh, and 14 shecondsh ☝️🤓

50:19 this is propaganda
You compared an "optimal" gameplay clip, with layers of edits specially designed to make it more exciting.. to a clip of a fight that basically happened without you. With no -exciting- editing whatsoever.
Pyro no skill

Clickbait, not 4 hours
i dont want to be that guy but ur gameplay is meh for someone with plenty of unusuals and 2800+ hours on tf2, thus i don't think youre qualified enough to make a run down of all weapons. Although u did a OK job using a more objective out look (sometimes maybe too objective so therefore this vid doesn't bring anything new to the table) to review the weapons.
hope you have a great vacation!
