Ottr, use this to make video episodes. Thank you!

For clarity sake, you can have a loadout tailored to mirror classes/loadouts from other games, but LIGHT, MEDIUM, and HEAVY body types themselves are ARCHETYPES

Another w video, ottr, let's go. Don't stop making finals content.

This might be a wild take but, on light I usually go dash + sword, tracker, smokes, gas. Tracker can give me a bit better chase potential or give warnings to the team (or a quick bit of extra damage), smokes give me better "evasion" and can make sure the gas isn't just burnt off by a pyro grenade or heavy.

Glad ur getting a sponsorship, appreciate all the work you do to carry this beloved game of mine alive

I’m a “aggressive light support” Loadout: - M11/XP-54/Sniper (mostly M11) - Grapple - Portal - Gas nade - Fire nade Anytime I get the chance to open the vault, I set a portal to the box, run to the closest cash-out machine, and set the 2nd portal. Then use the nades to prevent steals. If possible I’ll set portals for my team to get back faster to the cash-out machine to defend

love playing troll heavy lol found it 2 weeks ago ahaha

I'm highly offended by being branded as a "lazy medium" instead of a "mega-big-brain-be-careful-you-just-activated-my-trap-card-you-dolt medium" But being serious for a moment, after not touching this game for months, I hopped back in with some friends to try the new mode. Running the lazy medium class with gas mines on the back of the platform, a jump pad on the front to send people flying, and a turret placed just off the wall to add some cover and some supportive fire was a real good time. I was racking up 5 kill and 15 assist games all night, it was pretty darn fun.

Support light is actually really good if you communicate it well. Light now has many options to support your teammates and you can get ally totems pretty easily with gateway or dash (dash serves as a good way to quickly get in and get out of the dangerous areas)

This is the perfect video to show to someone who has experience with FPS games but not THE FINALS Well done 🔥

Dash is nice for swiping statues to revive Okay... You didn't have to call me out with the riot shield... It's probably one of the least intuitive weapons to get value out of though

For me personally I like to play heavy with a sledgehammer, rpg, grenade and explosive mine. Another way you have to play this is by looking at the bottom of a building and specifically the pillars and just taking them all out. This pulls the whole building down and as otter said, makes everything super chaotic. Oh also you have to use charging slam to help pull down the buildings. It might not get you the most amount of kills but damn will it be ever fun and help your teammates out immensely. Just try it you love it.

IDK what it would be called, but i use throwing knives, frag grenade, breach charge, and gateway charge with invisibility cloak. I mostly either flank the enemy, find people on their own, or hide behind my team to get big damage

ID/Fragger/Support Medium Class Setup - Healing beam, AK, Defib, Zipline and Grenade

As a cl40 enjoyer I must say you're spot on except defib is actually sub-optimal you should be double mine + movement for better outpositioning and potential flanking to secure safer res's. It's more versatile and let's you focus on staying alive then banking on a clutch res which could put you in real danger with 4 ammo rushing in headfirst

me a dagger enjoyer. "why would I stun them first instead of just backstabbing them?"

MGL Heavy could probably be added to Troll Heavy, or could be its own class

a bit of a support class for light is the chaser. The chaser light's job is to chase down and secure kills via flanking mid fight to behind thier cover or to take down any fleeing enemy, there to help in any one-on-one fights in your team. Its the ony one i find kind of useful with grapple and use vanish bomb to create the illusion that your teammate is alone

I played a "support light" LH1 round a week ago with two fragger Mediums and it was incredibly fun. I used dash, would spot and sonar, take off angles to draw attention and they'd kill. I could dash in and grab their statues, it's like the electron around a nucleus. We destroyed in the round and I had maybe 1 kill, 1 death, and more support score than both of them. It was incredibly fun; it's worth trying to figure out, but seriously requires solid, capable teammates.

As a OTP nade medium, I always run gas mine, zips, and defib. The subclass capitalises on highground far more than every other class, which is why the zips are important. The ziplines can also be broken in one nade shot, allowing for super fast escapes and repositionings without letting enemies follow. The exp mine isnt that good since it only does 20% of its damage before armed. I use the gas mine for defensive crowd control and spacing with instant detonation. The gas mine also allows you to properly kite enemies to go directly into your nades, and will obscure their vision while allowing you to see them. This build allows you to really control the playfield and force enemies to play into your nades. Though the skill ceiling is ungodly high, you can actually completely outplay even the best players with this build.

Great vid brotha

You forgot one: grenade launcher heavy! Mostly a defense focused class, they hang back and use their extensive experience with the rotary grenade launcher to mortar hotspots in the map from afar, providing both damage if done well and team utility in the way of flanking, distractions and defending objectives solo. Think grenade launcher, goo gun, barricades, and from there it depends on if you lean more towards damage or defense. Damage? RPG and C4. Defense? Dome shield and antigravity

The overwatch references made me laugh everytime. Good video!

Every Finals game player needs to watch this.

I often alternate between Riot shield med, btw you got that spot on for both loadout and playstyle. And what I'd call Close support light primarily for powershift as the extra teammates lets me play more fast and loose getting in close and back out as need be. Loadout is throwing knives/m11/sh1900 Grappling hook, Goo grenade, Pyro/Frag grenade, Tracking dart. Typically i roam near the point marking enemies for teammates and shadowing teammates to help in combat by adding damage or if it goes wrong throw a goo grab the statue and dip with grapple to revive them, and if i see a light sniper or medium supporting with revives and heals i mark them and hunt them down often throwing goo between them and their team to separate them and aid my escape after the kill.

Eh almost got me I function as a weird inbetween of movement and support medium. A goo plus jumping pad gives you insane horizontal movement, which means you can ditch the zip line, in favor of the incredibly versatile goo. Goo is a support's best friend since it blocks off entry points, catches enemies, and is a great oh shit, the entire enemy team is shooting at me, ass saver. Since the jump pad is also an ass-saver you're a very fast, very tricksy medium, that is pretty terrible at damage. It's a very fun and effective build, although frankly the only reason I use it is because I love the revolver, and without the ability to cut off FCAR, and Lewis angles a revolver main is going to find themselves pincushioned by gunfire. With a longe range weapon, a movement-focused support medium would be better served by the zipline for the movement combo. But considering that it's the only medium weapon that allows me to consistently get the beautiful sound of headshots I'm sticking to my weird build.

Thx for the video

TF2 scout light: SH1900 Evasive dash Stun gun Vanishing bomb/gateway

Thanks for the content. When this game really pops off you will be handsomely rewarded.

You missed the double barrel light although it kinda got nerfed into the ground 😂

slappen em up with your stick caught me off guard 😂

Smoke thermal light and dash goes crazy too

It's incredible how many play styles this game accommodates.

great guide

Ottr you are the goat

I'm all in on the Finals, they updated PS5 gyro with flick stick and a gyro off button, we only got 3 titles with the full gyro feature suite, and now the game is a pleasure to play for gyro always on players. Thanks to Embark

You missed like 5 classes. There's the "Pistol Light" that only runs grenades and either grapple or dash. There's the "Grenade Launcher Heavy" that spray n prays he gets a kill. There's my main which is "Aggressive Medium Turret" with aps and defib and explosive landmines and the most op and underrated AKM (get better if you cant control recoil, its not even there for me) this medium build is good at top fragging and also area control or denial. There is the "Shotgun Medium" with healing beam and defib with 2 types of landmines, this healer will almost never stop healing and likes to hide a lot. There is the "M11 Light" with dash, sonar grenade, taser, and anything for their last gadget (mostly another grenade), This lights job is to put out at much damage as possible and take out heavy's or even try to top frag while staying with the team. There are also those "Random Classes" where they have anything and run off into the distant outlands ever imaginable and always die. (Clocked light is trash and invis isn't good at making you invisible)

I personally run medium with demat, goo, frag, and defib. With both demat and goo and I can both create and remove cover at will. It's so fun and allows so much outplay potential

Isnt a burts gun like the shotgun better for support medium since they can deal high damage bursts inbetween healing?

Grenadier heavy: I love this class to no end Grenade launcher Charge n slam RPG Dome or barricade Pyro or explosive or C4 I play this often going for weird angles, bank shots, arial bombardment, and getting collateral on groups. Mines/c4 can be used to cover your back or point, or used to ward off chasers. Can also be used for explosive damage doubling. Charge n slam is best option imo because it is your sole close range option. Also your teammates will not like you any game you don't produce because the weapon is notoriously bad 😅

Your editor did good with such a large length of footage 😅

That's misleading. There are only 3 classes in the game, and what you described is more like subclasses or builds.

How frustrating is it that you made this great video yesterday. And today, there are several changes in the update that make some of these builds less effective? Great video though. I hope you make an updated version of this once a month or something to explain how to adjust with the new buffs/nerfs.

The fact that you haven't uploaded anything on the new content that's coming out makes me think that you've played it and can't say anything

honestly i play my medium a little bit like all the classes exept the riot shield one mainly i run the akm with explosiv mines, zipline and the defib then the model 1887 , jumppad , gasmine and the frags in the reserve and spcilazation is just what is good for the team comp.

no funmaxxer light? (throwing knives, evasive dash, stun gun, vanish, pyro)

17 classes and still didnt even mention like 10 more you could pull off... truly a gg

pog vid, keep up the good work.

dope I love this

Beam, Dfib, APS, Data reshape is one of the top loadouts in my opinion

Controling support medium gas grenade and mines with heal beam and defib

How do i change the clas loadout

Grenade launcher heavy can be underrated

les go we got sponsor

alternate name for the content light: clip chimp

i do support medium with frag and gas mine

It's Team Fortress 2, all over again... ART OF THE SUBCLASS... but in THE FINALS

Flame with C&S is better since they nerfed mesh with rpg explosive mines and dome also for the light i have mp5 with QD with pyro glitch and stun

How have I played everything in this video except the meta builds?

Lazy medium😂😂😂😂 You got me

I stopped playing this when they killed the Light class, and I shall not be coming back. RIP

MOVEMENTTT MEDIUMMM

dude got the words class and build mixed up 💀

Movement medium is peak

12:14 Bibbit build?!

sledgy supremecy 🔥

Flanking...REINHARDT

i play lazy m in tournament and fragger m in casual match

Your the goat❤😊

You missed the anti light , light class

not having timestamps is crazyyyy

Just to comment on a couple Loadout possibilities or alterations: For the flamethrower heavy, I run Pyro grenade, Pyro mine, and goo grenade with a goo gun. Sure you lack any sort of defense, but you will BURN THE ENEMIES DOWN WITH HELLFIRE HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH!!! erhm Sorry...got carried away. For the Troll heavy, or as I like to call it "FUCK YOUR WALLS!" runs a sledgehammer, Rocket Launcher, charge n' slam, and a frag grenade. Basically, you just level buildings, and go hulk smash.

no way all the time i was the supp light 😔😔

I use thermal w/ LH1 am i the only one?

This is the holy bible 2.0 my fellow finalists. 👌👌

Like - Light Comment - Medium Ignore - Heavy

I left as soon as you promoted vbn

Fragger medium all the way!

Defense expert medium Model 1887 Guardian turret Gas mine Pyro grenade Jump pad

video's great and all but PLEASE don't use a blurred video as a transition as it hurts the shit out of my eyes

You forgot about throwing knives

The first comment isnt “___ views in ___ seconds? Fell off” thats crazy

Running Medium without defibs is just trolling and losing on purpose.

as a support light i am offended (although i guess that's why i'm bronze huh)

Great vids bro but I’m done with this game I only like to play light how can u nerve a stun gun that is trash anyway plus the cloak nerv was to much they really don’t care for lights

Where my throwing knife people at?

Really? No mention of the greatest weapon in the game? Give my throwing knives some love.

Its criminal that you recommended people to use the grapple over dash with the sniper. The mid fight mobility is the only thing keeping the weapon from being completely useless on a rooftop 4 miles away...

Please avoid using the blur visual effect while editing the video. This effect is horrible to watch. It literally hurt my eyes to watch it.

Not hating on the video but i find those alternative explanations very funny cos they really be like "Please explain in fortine terms" meme

Hello

Lazy medium lmaoo
