Unban The Scorch Shot
-
haha yes legalize the scorch shot it’ll be fun guys i swear (for me) :+)
-
Figsy ban both so I can have more fun!
-
scorchcels seething over detchads
-
JohhnyFromCali 20 from the initial shot +26 from the linger minicrit + 75 from the minicrit afterburn. I’ve had it happen so many times. Idk what spuey is on with 60 direct but so many little rats take the packs that dying from the afterburn is not as uncommon as you might expect
-
pickelz so true my friend
-
None of these players who commented in this thread won invite so technically their opinion is invalid. As a true invite player! I say unban scorch shot because it is not broken and fine weapon and it’s a good change of pace
-
Jebus except that’s not how afterburn works after the mini crit has landed. The afterburn after is just plain ole regular dmg. Same with the flare gun/det.
-
if scorch is unbanned, then so would darwin’s, and i ain’t going back to the era where i can’t kill snipers
-
Res no it wouldn’t come back. If you are using a secondary to best harass a sniper. It’s the det because you can burn them without peaking or slow peaking.

the entire point of balance is to make a game that’s fun to play and watch. the scorch shot has been complained to death already and makes pyro more lobotomized and lame than just keeping it banned. The easier to use splash and secondary knockback feels very painful to play against and just makes classes feel even more limited in a game mode where every class can sometimes feel rigid and same-y. Even if unbanning the scorch realistically does nothing it just doesn’t make the game any more enjoyable for everyone but the pyro. realistically it would damage the hl scene more than help it

I’VE NEVER PLAYED RGL HERE’S MY OPINION:
The scorchshot is not overpowered in the grand scheme of things, but it does probably give pyros too much for too little effort. It’s fine being banned.
I don’t know where the current meta is but I can’t imagine trying to play on any team that considers itself aggressive and not running a weapon that allows me to directly combat people.
Run the shotgun, folks.

pickelz said in Unban The Scorch Shot:
all this talk about numbers and stuff ignores the fact that, when we played with it, we collectively came to the opinion that it was fucking annoying to play against. so we (once again, as a collective) decided to not play with it
If that’s your standard, then you should ban the entire pyro class

Iso
