[...] Exactly. It's 1 tiny little trick that fails the majority of the time on a weapon that is not used the majority of the time. The amount of times you actually get a kill with it while on <50HP or so is roughly a tenth (probably even less) of the amount of times you get killed while wielding it. [...] I was referring to hitscan breaking Stickies midair, not explosives moving them midair.

1. Congrats on completely missing the point. 2. And as a demo I was referring to the stickies bouncing away midair, which was even more annoying than hitscan breaking em midair]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=8879&post=149356 Fri, 12 Feb 2010 12:49:49 +0100 Reply by atreides https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-8879/page-4/?recent=149361#post=149344 the soldier isn't meant for the second (undisguised high-speed all-angle) spy class.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=8879&post=149344 Fri, 12 Feb 2010 11:25:15 +0100 Reply by Buffalo Bill https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-8879/page-4/?recent=149361#post=149342 Quoted from xzr

also it was like 50% of stickies bouncing away midair in every midfight

[...] Not like the Demomen who had to deal with 1 in every 6 or 7 Stickies being shot out of the air due to a bug and cried and cried despite it only minorly affecting them.

I love it how the sollies are hanging on to their precious overpowered unlocks with their nails and teeth. Most of the top tier sollies agree tdh and equalizer need a change so pardon me for having a giggle on the nerdraging shitsollies who are happy that they're finally getting their kd-ratio on the 1+ side.

[...] It's not the 1hp solly running at you, it's the 140 health soldier who's got the weapon out and is near me. I can't instakill him, but if I damage him, he'll be able to kill me in 1 hit.

Fair point, but I don't think thats a fair point to ban it. Then we should ban the Sniper because he can stand far away and oneshot the medic and win your team the round. I can't talk for the DIV1 teams or DIV6 teams, maybe its different? but i have never when i specced or played seen someone take so much advantage of the Equalizer that i wanted the weapon banned. There is so much more i rather see banned then this "soldier-buff" I wouldn't care if they banned it either. But i don't like that everyone wanna ban everything valve does.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=8879&post=149183 Thu, 11 Feb 2010 18:52:36 +0100 Reply by EXM https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-8879/page-4/?recent=149361#post=149179 Quoted from xzr

Well, you should start loving books and reading, becouse I don't see anyone saying, that Equalizer is balanced. Sure, compared to shovel it is op, but when you look at the general picture, comparing Equalizer solly with scout, demoman, or even a RL solly, you understand (smart people atleast...) that it's a buff, that was needed for a long time.]]> generator=rsdiscuss&baseurl=https://staging.etf2l.org&feed=forum&forum=general&topic=8879&post=149179 Thu, 11 Feb 2010 18:41:03 +0100 Reply by toasty. https://staging.etf2l.org/forum/general/topic-8879/page-4/?recent=149361#post=149165 Quoted from sXs
