As a medic, I hate this thing. It doesn't even prevent backstabs, it just means the spy takes a tiny bit of damage then Dead Ringers outta there once the Heavy's dead.

It's not bad if you're a blu heavy on payload and you're in love with the cart, but otherwise yea it's useless, literally anything in range of the fire can be mowed down almost instantly by a competent heavy.

Anyway I think we can all agree the real crutch weapon is this. You give up the Wrangler which is otherwise useful and invaluable at protecting your sentry nest in return for pissing the crap out of everyone. A good engineer can protect his sentry from harm with the wrangler, but a bad engineer needs this little annoyance to do a lesser job far easier.

I've seen this have fair, non-crutch use on a 32 player dust bowl server. When lots of engineers best up with wranglers, it's pretty resilient, but a couple ubered demos can take it out. However, if there's one engi going with this, he just supports the other engineers rather than focusing on wrangling and repairing his own sentry. Makes the nest almost insurmountable, as only heavies and pyros can do anything when ubercharged and they just can't get close enough to deal good damage against multiple wrangled sentries.

As a Sniper main, I still think this thing is ridiculously overpowered. You can still win an encounter with a Pyro 9 times out of 10.

>Black Box
Only having 3 rockets is a pretty big downside when fighting other soldiers

>Sydney Sleeper

Good luck taking down anything with more than 150 hp.

>Cloak and Dagger

How, exactly? You're basically standing still doing nothing half the round

>Force-a-Nature

Do you even scout? Nobody uses it outside of pubs, with the exception of Thief but he would be just as effective with the stock scattergun.

>Soda Popper

Again, nobody uses it outside of pubs.

>Mad Milk

Wouldn't say it's unbalanced, let alone a crutch. It's only useful on players that haven't seen you, so it's sort of countered by gamesense.

>Backburner

Don't let pyros get behind you. Simple.

>Heavy as a class

I've stopped taking you seriously. Heavy has been nerfed into oblivion. Any decent player can take down a walking bullseye with 300 health that outputs practically no damage when he's not standing right in front of you.

Not exactly a crutch b/c it's harder to hit while moving faster. A crutch makes a bad player seem good. It is an OP weapon, though, and should have another downside.

Dead ringer, BFB, brass beast and gunslinger.

Dead ringer doesn't give an advantage really but it's fucking annoying and rewards bad spies with a do-over after throwing their idiot selves into battle needlessly.

BFB is in your face, out of your face, in your fa- "Bam, what's-a matter, chucklenuts?"

Brass Beast does way too much damage in such little time giving you no room for reaction.

Gunslinger I shouldn't even have to explain. You know how bad it is.

Also I don't think the loch n load is that bad. The Loch n Load isn't even that hard to counter. The thing doesn't have rollers and it does shit damage to everyone with more than 125 health (Soldier, pyro, heavy, demo). It's also harder to use because you don't have rollers to fall back onto.

Short circuit is fine. Fuck stickyspammers and fuck rocket spamming soldiers who watched one too many star_ videos and think they're tough shit.

it doesn't take +5 hours to tell, when or not, you're being shot at. So basicly free movement speed most of the time, with the occasional opportunity of getting a butt load of health.
