Combat Vet Reacts to How it Feels to Play Scout by Lazypurple 

As a sonic fan. Him saying "Theres a lot of Dragon Ball Z" straight killed me

Fun fact: There is a melee with a severed hand, scout is hitting heavy with the "holy makerel", basically slapped by a raw fish

1:25 Scout main here. I don’t need coffee, I have ADHD which honestly helps a lot when playing scout

So the midfight is actually the start of the round. On maps with 5 control points, each team starts with 2 control points and one uncaptured one in the middle. The midfight is that fight in the center of the map. It's also the beginning fight on king of the hill maps.

"I hope that is a leg of lamb but knowing team fortress 2, it's a leg of human." That's actually a fish wrapped in a newspaper as a melee weapon within scouts arsenal other then either a baseball and bat, glasses full of milk, and other weird looking melee weapons.

most of the meme sounds effects and voicelines used in this video are a reference to Sonic, most from Sonic Adventure 2

Oh my god. Scout *is* an offbrand spy in canon technically. I was not expecting a mind awakener in this video

11:23 that’s a sonic reference, but also the Home Run thing is because Scout is also a Baseball fan, and yes, he drinks a lotta soda/energy drink

5:51 The mid fight, the first engagement between the two team over the, as of yet, uncaptured middle control point.

"Mid fight" actually means the fight at the middle point, the first clash the two teams have on the 5 CP game mode.

11:30 that's a Sonic Adventure 2 reference

15:15 ; Now, the reason you're confused, is because you didn't hear EVERYTHING that Heavy said when you paused at 14:43 Which was "Am I a bad class?", to which the text replied "Yes, yes you are". Maybe when you need to pause to talk, when resuming the video, try rewinding it by 5 seconds so you hear someone's full quote.

Okay two moments: - in the end of MGS3 you fight in the field of white flowers (Star of Bethelheim if I remember it right). Red flower petals and the whole field becoming red after Boss dies is representation of Big Boss's mental breakdown and feelings of guilt. In reality petals ALWAYS were white and we can see it as Big Boss catches one while boarding the plane and it turns back to white. - "Ultimate Life Form" and the whole dialogue "You're faker!" - is the reference to introduced in "Sonic Adventure 2" Shadow The Hedgehog character, famous for his full of pride and edgy lone wolf attitude, Anti-Vilain/Heroic rival to Sonic (basically Vegeta of Sonic Franchise) . "Ultimate Life Form" comes from Shadow being artificially made in a lab to be one (unlike Sonic who is supposedly naturally born - storywise hilariously Shadow was actually made a few decades before Sonic was even born but was left in cryostasis by government for 50 years). Also the joke "I can have 3 HP left and still carry the game to the finish line" cane be considered a reference for Shadow's famous propensity to survive scenarios that left him almost dead and would've killed anyone else - like falling unconscious from space into Earth's atmosphere. "Chaos Control" references to Shadow's ability to stop time for a moment (which looks like teleportation to outsider). And the "You're faker!" dialogue is taken straight from Sonic Adventure 2 with all its narmy charm intact - government mistaking Sonic for Shadow and the latter pinning his crimes on Sonic was the plot point there and this dialogue happens when they finally meet eye to eye.

How it FEELS to be a Combat Vet watching How it FEELS to play Scout!

Little context as to what a mid-fight is. It’s a term in Tf2’s game mode, Control Point/5cp. A mid fight is where both teams roll out to the middle of the map and have a huge fight for who gets the first control point. You also see the term used whenever the team rolls out to the middle of the map in general

1:30 As a former Scout main, no we're not. We're more just hyped up on pure adrenaline and the overwhelming desire to be the biggest thorns in the side for the enemy team. :P Nowadays, I find new ways of being like that with Medic and Pyro, who are my most commonly played classes.

he was referring to shadow the hedgehog from sonic adventure 2 when he was talking about that whole "ultimate life form" thing. also shadow is more of an anti-hero than an actual villain- okay I'll stop now 🤐.

Lol it was sonic not dragon ball Z

That fish in a newspaper Scout was using was the Holy Mackerel, a semi joke weapon that displays how many times you hit someone with it and when you kill the poor unfortunate soul who get sharp scales to the face. Despite the meme status of this “useless” stat, it’s actually quite good at catching dead ringer spies as it won’t show that you killed them and instead add to the hit counter. Pyro has a similar weapon which is literally just a hot glove that you slap people silly with.

scout's health is basically his speed and ability to evade almost any shotguns, rockets, sniper shots the game throws at ya if you're not moving you're not scouting

I don't belive they're called cherry blossoms (in MGS3), I think those are regular trees, but the pellets that fly around are the Stars of Bethleiem, the white flowers you see around the field, and for some reason after you shoot The Boss, they turn red.

What Scout was using to hit the heavy? Yeah, that's a literal FISH. As in, "wrapped in a newspaper and used to whack people until they die" fish.

"This is alot of Dragon Ball Z" IT'S SONIC-

To be fair, if you were going to pick a single anime to watch Cowboy Bebop is a top tier choice. Another good one would be Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood

Some people don't know this but the scattergun is actually just the shotgun but with a higher like damage ramp up(basically does more damage up close), same amount of shells in the chamber and reserve, basically the same reload and fire rate speed but the scattergun fires an extra pellet I think

2:06 fish

The thing he was hitting Heavy with was a fish wrapped in a newspaper. A leg of a person would be a ridiculous weapon! Although an ARM of a person is perfectly legit-

1. The midfight is simple just a term for “fighting over the mid-point” or in this case the middle control point. 2. In the bit with the technical difficulties heavy, scout is hitting him with a weapon called the Holy Mackerel. It’s literally just a fish wrapped in a newspaper and it’s considered a joke weapon. Funnily enough, there is actually a weapon for scout that’s a severed spy hand, so you partially right.

The "midfight" is the confrontation at the start of a match, where both teams are fighting over the middle capture point.

the "mid fight" is actually the first fight of a 5 control point map when the middle point hasnt been captured yet

Here's a fun fact, Spy is Scout's dead.

7:40 ; The very fact that your even mention MGS3 and The Boss with such fervour, raises my opinion of you immensely! :D Also those "cherry blossoms" in Tselinoyarsk aren't actually cherry blossoms. They're white grass lilies, also known as "Star of Bethlehem". As for why they turn red at the end of The Boss's battle? I don't have an answer for you, though I guess it is pretty symbolic.

That wasn’t dragon ball, that was Sonic. He is meant to be Shadow.

Be Paul: > Only had seem 1 anime > That anime being Cowboy Bebop > Says he doesn't need to see more anime since this is the best one. > Leaves

The “mid fight” is at the start of the game At the start of the game both teams rush to the middle and fight over it It offer determines the flow of the rest of the game This is mostly in comp the mid fight usually doesn’t make as much of an impact in casual and it’s also just lest competitive.

At 2:16 it's actually an item called the holy mackerel, which is essentially just a raw fish

If you ever change your mind about watching anime, I think it would be interesting for you to react to GATE. It's VERY military-centric (to the point of being kinda rah-rah-jingo), and I think it would make for very good content for your channel.

i've been watching lot of your vids i like how you being yourself of course chill reacting, you drink coffee fan of MMA, military veteran, your choise of haircut and facial hair are great too here from morocco

Love your reaction, hope you react to the extras, they are paradoxicaly more informational lol

14:35 "Running away is a vital able solution. I don't care what anyone said" Joseph Joestar approved

I love when scout turn into shadow the hedgehog, the ultimate life.

Meta moment; go to the video and pause at 0:39 you’ll see that it’s actually neither a person’s leg or a leg of lamb. It’s actually a fish wrapped in newspaper.

TLDR of the " Mid fight" its a term used in King of the hill or Control Ppoint maps and it refers to the 1st encounter both teams have at the start of the game. wining this fight will generally mean the winning team can capture the mid point and set the momentum of the game(mostly because the losing team loses uber advantage.) for the next few minutes while the losing side needs ot wait out respawns and re organize.

11:19 Funny missed sonic reference but still gave me a good laugh! Keep up the good work!

Here the terms early fight is before either team is committing to a fight or usually is poking phase. mid fight is when both teams are fully engaged and casualties happen end fight is one team has numbers advantage and is cleaning up straglers

2:13 That's a fish wrapped in newspaper.

you should react to the behind the scenes because they are just as good as the actual videos (especially engineer and demo)

Spy and Scout, like father like son

5:35 What you said is partially correct (I think) What I think he's referring to is to the fight in the middle of the map or for control of the middle of the map.

You make a point to mention LazyPurple never copyright claims your react videos. Has there been like an individual creator who has?

not sure if it was a joke but now I want to quote "toto by africa"

"Why were there cherry blossoms in Russia?" The exact same reason there was a Jungle in Russia.

I am just now realizing how well playing scout and sonic music match up together.

Hey there, reaching 50k, keep going

That aniki reference always sends me down the rabbit hole every time

in the start scout was hiting the heavy with a fish and in-game its call the holly macarole but it has a re-skink that its a spy zombie arm

I randomly found this guy in my recommended. I'm 4 minutes in and I'm getting like life advice about how I'm always too focused on what might not actually be the most pressing matter. Damn.

It's a fish not a leg :D

“That’s some anime right there” *IT’S DAMN SONIC*

actually died on the inside when lazy did the sonic adventure reference and paul was like "anime"

5:30 The midfight is the early fight at the middle where the entirety of both teams are fighting I think

11:25 It's a reference to Sonic Adventure 2. The "Ultimate Lifeform" thing and the voice impression he does is a reference to Shadow The Hedgehog who was a rival of Sonic's in this game. The voice clips that follow with "Chaos Control!" and "Wow he's fast!" are voice clips taken straight from that game. Cheesy voice lines, but really fun. A lot of the songs you hear in this video are also from Sonic Adventure 2.

so close! it's actually a live fish wrapped in a newspaper 🥰

Btw the "Midfight" refers to the fight over the middle control point

2:10 That's the Holy Mackerel, aka a fish in a newspaper.

Lazy: *Parodies Sonic Adventure 2* Paul:That's a lotta Dragon Ball

3:22 Or in Laymen's term: Suppressing fire

4:05 the captions deffinantly picked that up as something

2 sentence out of 3 start with ''i love how...''

2:14 ik its been said before but the weapon in the beginning is the Holy Makerel and is a fish.

as soon as i heard "Anime villain voice" i was starting to think he has never in his lifetime watched sonic

What happened to the volume of the video after the Scout Demoman scene, like everything just went silent! DX

I lost it when he said "that's a lot of dragon ball z" at the sonic adventure 2 bit

13:16 "I just W-M1 my way through life" *Pyro*

Mid fight is usually early game and happens in the middle point

Scout was the last class I learned but became my most played

He was hitting the heavy in the beginning with a fish

When he was doing the edgy voice, it wasn't an anime villain reference. It was a reference to the Sonic the Hedgehog series, specifically to Sonic Adventure 2 were Sonic had a rival named Shadow the Hedgehog.

Technical difficulty scene: thats a fish

"This is a lot of Dragonball references" Yes Shadow is Vegeta....

The mid fight is going right for the objective.

Run and gun is a great playstyle, sadly that's usually combined with glasscannon, but it's fine

the leg of "lamb" was a fish

The mid fight means the fight where like your whole team is attacking the enemy team

Mid fight means fight on the middle point. Matches are ten minutes and it was 9:27 on the clock

the mis fight is the main area of attack, basically not the flank

The flowers at the end of Metal Gear Solid 3 were actually Stars of Bethlehem, not cherry blossoms.

*Sonic reference* "oh it's dragon ball" xD

at 10:52 whene he says he is the ultimate life form to 11:45 is a sonic adeventure 2 refrence.

God, I forgot Shadow the Hedge-Scout

15:20 It took me a second to realize that you said it the wrong way around.

"Wow that's a lot of Dragon ball z" * Shadow the hedgehog vibing stops *

“Wow that’s a lot of dragon ball x” as sonic audio plays

11:19 it's Sonic the Hedgehog Hearing that be referred to as dragon ball caused me physical pain

2:17 Scout his hitting heavy with the Holy Maceral (A fish)

Not even sure it was Lazy that was being the anime villain there. Kind of sounded like Soundsmith at the end with the "Alright I respect it."

Would love to see paul reacting to Nano, just like sovietwomble, he has tons of army based gameplay and ofcourse humour

My man thought that Sonic and Shadow voice lines and recreations we're from ANIME! I LOVE anime and that still HURTS so badly, not everything cool or dramatic is anime based. Also on another note why did you SKIP PART OF THE VIDEO?! You completely missed part of what I'd say is one of the funniest jokes in the video!

the song that plays when lazy brings up the title of the video is from Yumi Matsutoya, the song is Haru Yo Koi; he's just using a meme version called Kreygasm RIGHT. the original is a great song and i think you'd like it.

*Calls Sonic Dragon Ball Z* "Well no..." *Goes Super Sonic* "..but actually yes."
