Heavies should grab hold of the enemy and snap his neck/choke him to death

Then throw the carcass into an incoming crowd

Though on the other hand I dislike them changing anything.
Though the medic changes are actually pretty kewl.
But the axtuingisher sounds like fun, you still have to get close, so you can still toss him around as soldier/demo, so yeah, overpowered, right.

Yeah and for them to be on fire you have to be atleast just out of melee range, and as pyro can run faster than everyone but a scout, the pyro can get within melee range pretty easily, pyro's are a CQC anyway so if you always fail at getting close enough then you fail at the class and are probs just spamming flames and running at the enemy, and soldier/demo basically are OP anyway.

I don't know how it would turn out, but meh I'll wait and see.

Well, I say: good luck to getting close to a soldier in a small hallway. Anyway, I play pyro a lot and no, I don't run headless into a group of ppl, uness it benefts the guys coming after me from my team.
Lik I said, I use axe all the time, and he's not THAT much faster.
So yeah, axing a soldier would be fun, I do it all the time, though usually you don't kill them with one blow and they just shoot at the ground and you get blown off, this axe should make it way more fun .

Maybe one of the abilities somehow reduces the blow-back from the Soldier's rocket.

That's often the only reason why I can't kill them.

I can't damn well get to them.
(Provided they're decent Soldiers who don't have tunnel vision.)

So who is with me going Pyro tonight go get warmed up for Pyro madness that is due to start when the unlocks come out!!! There will be no spies any more on servers though lol.

edit: Lez do it.

Meh I suppose, I will wait and see, what I was thinking the problem would be is the fact that you are doing 200+ damage quite easily, which would kill any class apart from heavy. Also I can usually get close enough to soldiers, but with soldier basically being the only class that can continue attacking/killing while on fire and still be just as effective, it doesn't really matter and they rarely die from the burning. So it would be good for killing them suppose.

And about the knock-back thing, I wouldn't really want it that much over another type of unlock, as soldiers will usually kill you in 2 hits so even if you dont get knocked back they will still probably kill you, it would be more effective for demomen though, it would be useful but I would probably prefer something else.

Also I thought the pyro ran the same speed as the medic, which is slightly faster than the rest?
