Tip to not getting auto-balanced: 1. Check the scoreboard frequently for unbalance 2. If unbalanced, try not to get killed, as the first one to die get autobalanced. 3. I think.
Muselk Finally. As soon as I learned the Airstrike was more dangerous than a rubber chicken after the update notes were released, I shed a manly tear on the Strange ProKS Collector's Airstrike.
Muselk All you have to do is get into a space where rocket jumping is very bad or when you are a pyro you will still reflect like 3 or 4 of the 8 rockets coming towards you.
Muselk Short Circuit though. Or Vaccinator uber (yes, I suggested using the vaccinator, because you can protect yourself against that rocket rain every 10th second or so).
HokutoTheGamer Sometimes I don't think my jokes are, some seem to get VERY salty when I do things like that. Like, every time I bring up Zelda, the hero who's trying to save the princess? Over many heads it goes.
"I'm done with this stupid game" **Don't forget. You're here forever** This is pretty much why I still play TF2. For some reason, even after having the worst moments that constitute rage, you still go back in. It's like it's controlling your mind......and wallet.
D13H4RD2L1V3 Lol few months later i said to myself that i won't buy anything to tf2 anymore. Now i have +50 stranges and hats. What kinda magic is this?! I think im goin to sell all this shit on steam market and get a life, but it wont be easy... Thanks Gaben
Anyone remember that moment, when this video was just released, you watched it, and said to yourself "I'm gonna do the same!". Then you started TF2, joined first better pub... and there were 5 soldiers on each team, doing exactly the same? Good times.
>Muselk makes vid about how OP Loch and Load is >Loch and Load gets nerfed >Muselk makes vid on how OP Black Box is >Black Box gets nerfed I give the Air Strike 2 weeks before the same happens. Muselk pls stahp. I like these things ;_;
Spog Zallagi Dont worry I used up all my spending money on keys and stuff THE DAY BEFORE THE UPDATE CAME OUT. Seriously... I spent my money on an unusual and some keys. Then out of no where valve comes out with a HUGE Update with these contracts and stuff
You're the MVP of the BLU team on Payload. You almost win. Then it happens. You get auto balanced to Red. Of course the twist of knife is the announcer shouting *YOU FAILED* after you did all the work.
3:07 Another example of why autobalance needs to be removed from the game entirely, and whoever came up with it deserves to be publicly crucified and burned. As if the fact that it doesn't actually fix balance issues wasn't enough.
***** exactly. what if somebody is carrying there team and the other team is flat out bad. Then what ever team gets the good guy wins. Especialy if teams are imbalanced and some one on the losing team calls a balance vote, the entire winning team votes no. And because each team has pretty much the same amount of players you cant even scramble the teams
The Sightless Scopesman Disabling autobalance always, and I mean ALWAYS, ended up with a shit server that everyone would leave after 3-4 rounds. Autobalance is fine. It improves the game, it's just annoying every once in a while when timing hurts like that. Get over it and just have fun playing the game.
ericv00 Sure autobalance balances things but I think it can be easily changed by just adding a high AI bot or somthing. Just if you were auto balanced and you were doing great on the winning team then it is just frustrating
6:21 5 years later and me and muselk got a domination together. one of the happiest times of my life. i was a big fan back then. nearly cried when i saw this video ;)
+TheShadyRealm I play on a x10 wave 666 server with infinite money and you can rack up like 80 kills and you just get kritz and when they send out a wave of you activate canteen and wipe the tanks
I feel bad for these youtubers, everytime they make a payload vid, the get about balanced at the last sec. Also the reason why I stay at spawn to avoid that happening when I see it in chat
Ultimate anti-Air Strike - Direct Hit, Reserve Shooter, Escape Plan. Direct Hit if you know where they're gonna be, Reserve Shooter for hitscan airborne mini-crits, and Escape Plan if things go south and you need health
But a main sniper class professional can take em off both of them (refering to airstrike solly and your "Ultimate anti-Air Strike - Direct Hit, Reserve Shooter, Escape Plan" solly)
It's like the tf2 team saw the x10 Beggar's and thought, "hey that looks really fun. let's tone it down just a little bit and change the Air Strike to be like that."
I believe the counter to the Air Strike is Direct Hit + Reserve Shooter, and Snipers, since you're floating softly through the air raining death, making you an easy target (When not aimed at the sniper, of course.)
Someone Random heavy isn't broken tho. He is slow and a large target. He's also inaccurate. Soldier, however, doesn't even need to directly hit you to deal a decent amount of damage to you. He's the best class in the game.
I think a good way to make this a bit less crazy is to make every kill worth only 50% of a rocket, so it takes two kills to get one shootable rocket. That way it doesn't take only four kills and then you obliterate anyone below you.
Actually, that was the damage penalty this weapon had before it was buffed on the gun mettle update. It was considerably one of the most useless weapon of all time before because the liberty launcher packs more punches than the airstrike ever did.
"Scouts cant run from it. Heavies Cant Tank it. Pyros cant reflect it. And engis cant repair their buildings fast enough. I like this gun" OH, you mean the direct hit?
ClashWithMark - Clash of Clans Gaming no matter what video you watch of muslek, some unfathomably moist, saucy, creamy, crispy, succulent flakes of perfectly aged tortilla chips will be there
Just a little tip for everyone: If you get blasted into the air by a Soldier or Demo (or any explosion) the Air Strike counts that as Blast Jumping, so you unload your rockets on them! Makes 1v1s against Soldiers pretty one sided.
Soldier is less mobile than the scout, but more mobile than demo. He has less damage output than demo, but more than scout. Soldier is arguably the most balanced class in the game.
the main balancing factor of this gun is the fact that your still quite frail while using it, given that your going to be constantly rocket jumping (presumably with no gun boats if you want to be using the parachute in tandem with this thing), i mean enemy soldiers can airshot you easily while your parachute is out, and using the direct hit will just immediatley stop you in your tracks, pyros have flare guns and shotguns, heavys that know how to look up can instantly shred you to pieces, and your a huge sitting duck for snipers, and when you die you have to build up your kills again which can be quite the hellish endeavor, so yeah its good but by no means OP
(I know this is a stupid and possibly annoying comment but) I thought of 10 counters to the air strike: #1 Short circuit #2 reserve shooter/direct hit #3 (maybe) bazaar bargain #4 Cloak n dagger (go behind unnoticed and stab the soldier) #5 huntsman #6 Shortstop #7 Loose cannon #8 Flying guillotine #9 vaccinator (finally something it's good at) and #10 The jag. Also the candy cane is now as useful as a 1HP no ammo heavy and this comment will be the longest comment EVER XD
TheCODNoob Short circuit doesnt counter it (because it actually shoots faster than the circuit can evaporate rockets). Id say its basically the reserve shooter/ direct hit that are the only big counters (even the Jag cant repair fast enough).
Sniper is definitely a counter. If a soldier has full health when they jump they will have around 170 hp. Headshot them and they have 20 and no rockets loaded so it'd be easy for someone to kill the soldier.
Muselk I saw an SFM mocking the BASE Jumper. Just knock the guy out with the bonk. It's fast, and you're slowly descending in mid air, and then come in for the kill.
Charles Paul you think that's good XD i sell CRATES!!!! you know useless little cheap things. i got about 10 keys from this one kid with 6 crates. it was amazing
The only real weakness i can see from this is actually from the base jumper and the fact you're a sitting duck up there for snipers. I suppose a scout with the soda popper could pretty much fly up to you and around your rockets to shoot you in the face, but one of your many rockets will likely turn him into bloody giblets.
I still feel like they should do something about it tho, maybe make the reloading slower so it take more time for u to attack and spam rockets as often
Cristian Cruz Perhaps Valve will put a new weapon into the game that is similar to reserve shooter, like a new minigun for Heavy that minicrits airborne targets.
Cristian Cruz Exactly! That's the whole point of having a minigun that operates like that. if you see a heavy with this type of minigun it simply means: "Don't jump! Just stick to the ground." And besides, soldiers are still pretty lethal when they're not in the air, right? Also, I'm sure the minigun will have a weakness of some kind like slower firing speed, similar the Tomislav.
Sentries will always have the ultimate "Metal decoy shield" strategy that is Wrangler + Rescue Ranger. It's a waste to focus on it at all, even with an entire team if it's protected. When you use that parachute, people WANNA hit you, and people skilled enough to do so will. Snipers can pick you off if you're not careful. Direct Hits will wreck you, yes. Pyros... yeah pyros aren't ideal, but they can get flare shots off with good aim, could kill you unexpectedly. Don't get too close to heavies, and if you do at least make sure your volley can kill them before they shoot. Demos can be dangerous, but not the most threatening unless they've got decent grenade launcher aim or a targe. Spies are always bastards. Scouts are always assholes. Medics are Medics. This isn't to say the Air Strike is bad, there's just more to countering it than you think, and I still think the Beggars Bazooka is stronger.
Alex Martinez the thing i like about the bfb nerf is that they didn't change the speed you can get. it only says "man you are *that* fast and you're still unable to dodge incoming damage? i guess you don't deserve that speed." so yeah, i like it.
I've been using the Air Strike since the update. I am in love. And even I have to admit that it's hilariously overpowered. I feel like a bully when using it. XD
Hey... you guys... I got a Professional Killstreak Airstrike: Sheen: Villanous Violet Effect: Flames.... FOR 6 BUCKS. I LIKED THIS WEAPON BEFORE IT WAS COOL!
I got a professional kill streak one with parts worth so much, I sold my professional scatter for it. I'm now buying a Aussie grenade launcher with some really good parts. I'm just not that good with air strike.
this weapon is easy to counter. There is a weapon called the reserve shooter which is perfect to counter marker gardener soldiers and airstrike soldiers. the engineer can save their buildings with the short circuit. Pyros only need to airblast one rocket and the soldier takes a crit to the face. it is a high reward/ high risk weapon.
+HalfOfLife There is no damage spread anymore. From my experience, people like to bitch about weapons which make them learn it's unique counter , for this gun, looking up and then shooting the guy...Also, unless you pair it with the base jumper, it's not THAT good, and you constantly take jump damage and also run out of ammo most of the time... This weapon requires a good team to back it up, as it alone can't do shit effectively like other RLs... This weapon delegates soldier to support role which once in a while delivers good damage, basically like jets provide close range air support with air strikes ( which this weapon is). But well, make use of the weapon untill it will be nerfed to all hell in the next patch because of the moaners...

Very useful on MvM. Very effective and easy-to-use. I finnished two challenges on two cities with my specialized killstreak airstrike (aaand with my base jumper and market gardener).
Because of the lack of gunboats, this loadout benefits from the escape plan. Mine is named "retrodirectional advancement device," in the tradition of army naming.
I liked the Air Strike before it was awesome enough to be called "OP". Back then you had 3 shots to begin with and either had to have a good engie with a dispenser or a medic who was smart enough not to follow you on your air raids. I'll have to try it out again tomorrow when I'm on.
A: I believe you are talking about Flight of the Valkyries. B: Who bets that Valve will nerf it. Probs by removing random crits, or something. C: I will eat you.
I love the new Air Strike so much; easily my favorite rocket launcher in the game. I like to pair it with the Reserve Shooter so i can Minicrit enemy soldiers out of the sky and claim my rightful place as the enemy team's death from above.
You might not be able to counter the Air Strike, but you can counter the item that is required for it to work well: The B.A.S.E. Jumper. The Reserve Shooter will blow all parachuting soldiers out of the sky.
I kinda like the way the weapon was before, because you had to be more conservative of your shots, but you could reload very fast in the air. I can understand the eyelander style they went for though.

To bad it doesn't matter, as in casual, auto balance doesn't exist!
Dương Nghiệp Duy or just live with the meet your match update.
This gun is... seriously good. Id almost call it Loch n load good if it wasnt for the direct hit.
Muselk I remember when I was a gibus dude, using Air Strike 24/7 on Mann Manor w/ bots. On a server.
Muselk Finally. As soon as I learned the Airstrike was more dangerous than a rubber chicken after the update notes were released, I shed a manly tear on the Strange ProKS Collector's Airstrike.
you can actually do a triple sync with it on hightower
Muselk All you have to do is get into a space where rocket jumping is very bad or when you are a pyro you will still reflect like 3 or 4 of the 8 rockets coming towards you.
Muselk Short Circuit though. Or Vaccinator uber (yes, I suggested using the vaccinator, because you can protect yourself against that rocket rain every 10th second or so).
I think he can make every weapon look good.

Charles Paul Well time to trick kids to buy them for 1 scrap
ThisGuy more like for one key
Thanks for the idea now let me go to scrap.tf
i buy alot of base jumpers and sell them to noobs for 2scrap xD they think they are rare or something
Charles Paul you think that's good XD i sell CRATES!!!! you know useless little cheap things. i got about 10 keys from this one kid with 6 crates. it was amazing
It's the new phlog but for soldier... oh boy.
The only real weakness i can see from this is actually from the base jumper and the fact you're a sitting duck up there for snipers. I suppose a scout with the soda popper could pretty much fly up to you and around your rockets to shoot you in the face, but one of your many rockets will likely turn him into bloody giblets.

1812 Overture (finale) for Air Strike theme song
the pure panic of that sniper while mueslk slowly drifts towards him is hilarious.
2x speed, no sound, with benny hill theme song
Justice rains from above!!!!!
sexy sphee true
I once jumped into a map and was using my air strike loadout. Ended up with a 12 killstreak before I got killed. I felt godlike. I love this weapon.
Counter = Reserve Shooter
Dresdenstl Exactly. And as long as you can keep your distance, a good Sniper will shut this loadout down. It's just easy target practice
I still feel like they should do something about it tho, maybe make the reloading slower so it take more time for u to attack and spam rockets as often
Cristian Cruz Perhaps Valve will put a new weapon into the game that is similar to reserve shooter, like a new minigun for Heavy that minicrits airborne targets.
Vispellio oillepsiV eh, idk xD that sounds like a good idea on paper tho but it would totally fuck over rocket jumping soldiers
Cristian Cruz Exactly! That's the whole point of having a minigun that operates like that. if you see a heavy with this type of minigun it simply means: "Don't jump! Just stick to the ground." And besides, soldiers are still pretty lethal when they're not in the air, right?
Also, I'm sure the minigun will have a weakness of some kind like slower firing speed, similar the Tomislav.
IT'S OP. Example: I GOT A 97 KILLSTREAK WITH IT
+Penni Askew 97!!!!!!!
Have fun on that idle server.
And no one said you were hacking? But holy S*IT 2759?
ahem, im late but you forgot to change your account :D
Sentries will always have the ultimate "Metal decoy shield" strategy that is Wrangler + Rescue Ranger. It's a waste to focus on it at all, even with an entire team if it's protected.
When you use that parachute, people WANNA hit you, and people skilled enough to do so will.
Snipers can pick you off if you're not careful.
Direct Hits will wreck you, yes.
Pyros... yeah pyros aren't ideal, but they can get flare shots off with good aim, could kill you unexpectedly.
Don't get too close to heavies, and if you do at least make sure your volley can kill them before they shoot.
Demos can be dangerous, but not the most threatening unless they've got decent grenade launcher aim or a targe.
Spies are always bastards.
Scouts are always assholes.
Medics are Medics.
This isn't to say the Air Strike is bad, there's just more to countering it than you think, and I still think the Beggars Bazooka is stronger.
I am really unsatisfied with the Baby Face's Blaster changes. That weapon is not fun to use anymore...
Ikr I can't be my favorite load out now :( #bringoldbabyfaceblasterback
I thought I was the only one that cared. ;_; that was nerfed and NOT THE PHLOG?!
Sure you had fun with the bfb, but I bet everyone else on the server hates you with everything
Suppressed Barrel scouts can die easily, its not that op, if at all
Alex Martinez the thing i like about the bfb nerf is that they didn't change the speed you can get. it only says "man you are *that* fast and you're still unable to dodge incoming damage? i guess you don't deserve that speed." so yeah, i like it.
Definitely Not Star...
*You're right... you're playing TF2.*
Kieran McCallough that joke doesn't really work now does it...
I've been using the Air Strike since the update. I am in love. And even I have to admit that it's hilariously overpowered. I feel like a bully when using it. XD
what hud you using muselk
Land Shark eve
Lmao check the chat box 14:00
Lol funny

"Definitely Not Star"
Hey... you guys... I got a Professional Killstreak Airstrike: Sheen: Villanous Violet Effect: Flames....
FOR 6 BUCKS.
I LIKED THIS WEAPON BEFORE IT WAS COOL!
Also my preferred loadout is The Airstrike, Gunboats and Escape Plan/Market Garden.
#hipster swag
I got a professional kill streak one with parts worth so much, I sold my professional scatter for it. I'm now buying a Aussie grenade launcher with some really good parts. I'm just not that good with air strike.
Infinite Nexus I can buy a sandwich with that...
Sundowner The Invincible
Considering how much airstrikes are going for now, I think it's a pretty good deal (around 11 dollars and rising)
Infinite Nexus I was talking about a real sandwich...
this weapon is easy to counter. There is a weapon called the reserve shooter which is perfect to counter marker gardener soldiers and airstrike soldiers. the engineer can save their buildings with the short circuit. Pyros only need to airblast one rocket and the soldier takes a crit to the face. it is a high reward/ high risk weapon.
You're welcome
auto balance op plz nerf
Done now :3
6:03 what a smooth transition, I barely understood for a second
idea for nerf: marked for death while in the air.
+Jean Marcus Antic Good idea but I think it would be better if it was: marked for death while rocket jumping.
No that would still be OP. You have to make it so it has a -0.5% firing speed penalty.
For the air strike or base jumper?
You're a good player, fighting pub scrubs, using the parachute. How the fuck is the air strike OP? I'd like to see the same on a comp match.
Not to mention random crits and damage spread.
Gabe Reaka I dunno, I've seen some damn good people on pub servers before
+Gabe Reaka на всички останали мебели са били в България и разполагатме с малко време.
+HalfOfLife There is no damage spread anymore. From my experience, people like to bitch about weapons which make them learn it's unique counter , for this gun, looking up and then shooting the guy...Also, unless you pair it with the base jumper, it's not THAT good, and you constantly take jump damage and also run out of ammo most of the time... This weapon requires a good team to back it up, as it alone can't do shit effectively like other RLs... This weapon delegates soldier to support role which once in a while delivers good damage, basically like jets provide close range air support with air strikes ( which this weapon is).
But well, make use of the weapon untill it will be nerfed to all hell in the next patch because of the moaners...

Very useful on MvM. Very effective and easy-to-use. I finnished two challenges on two cities with my specialized killstreak airstrike (aaand with my base jumper and market gardener).
Don't apologise for killing fucking snipers.
Mp Extory I found the heavy main, Kappa
This.
***** wasn't talking to you so nice job, however I understand your frustration towards better players, KappaHD
***** I disagree.
***** Yeah sure, anybody can be a good sniper within hours. That sure is how it works.
Does everyone have unusual other than me :,(
No I don't have a unusual and my play time is 1,000 hours
D3str0yfight M8 never mind, got one on my third mann co crate unboxing
Red Dude1866 don't brag. and don't lie -_-
Sgt. Kirby k m8, made sure i didn't do any of those things (but i seriously got one, it was a shit unusual)
Sgt. Kirby i dont have the unusual anymore, cuz i traded it, but i do have a screenshot of it. if you want to see it, my steam name is Uncommon Sword
The airstrike is even more op in MvM. Upgrade clip and Rocket Specialist and it becomes utterly chaotic.
Airstrike was already good even before the update. But now it gets four rockets by default, much more fun!
13:58 - Dude, Earthworm Jim on the NES! You know, the song that plays after you beat an entire stage.
The loadout you are using in this video, it become my main weapon loadout for soldier and it is dang good!
You can already hear it in the distance ,,Welcome to Team Fortess 2 after 9 years in development hopefully its been worth the wait"
"Deffinantly not star"
This is why I love Muselk
Because of the lack of gunboats, this loadout benefits from the escape plan.
Mine is named "retrodirectional advancement device," in the tradition of army naming.
I liked the Air Strike before it was awesome enough to be called "OP". Back then you had 3 shots to begin with and either had to have a good engie with a dispenser or a medic who was smart enough not to follow you on your air raids.
I'll have to try it out again tomorrow when I'm on.
A: I believe you are talking about Flight of the Valkyries.
B: Who bets that Valve will nerf it. Probs by removing random crits, or something.
C: I will eat you.
9:05 (After getting rekt) Barney: Go away Definitely not star
9:11 Voitex: Barney you mad?
xD
i like how his names were related to youtubers:
''Rocket Man [Not Shibby]''
''Deffinitely Not Star''
dunno why but.....ok....
I love ho they finally added +swing speed to the Jag among other things in this update...finally my favorite wrench is actually useful
I like the killstreak notifications, like. "Oh yeah? Really? My weapon is Somewhat Threatening now? How did that happen!?"
I love the new Air Strike so much; easily my favorite rocket launcher in the game. I like to pair it with the Reserve Shooter so i can Minicrit enemy soldiers out of the sky and claim my rightful place as the enemy team's death from above.
3:20 oh the irony
You might not be able to counter the Air Strike, but you can counter the item that is required for it to work well: The B.A.S.E. Jumper. The Reserve Shooter will blow all parachuting soldiers out of the sky.
4:18 muselk tries so hard to keep his character when he knew he's in the point of near death xD
I kinda like the way the weapon was before, because you had to be more conservative of your shots, but you could reload very fast in the air. I can understand the eyelander style they went for though.
Gets autobalanced.

Aw muselk you're always so close, btw you should change the name of the air strike 'the missle launcher' to 'The Muselk Launcher' XD
If valve were to nerf this weapon, they should reduce the projectile speed by at least 20%. This thing is just OP
