[TF2] How to Trolldier: Market Gardener Basics 

My favorite trolldier moment of all time has got to be when me and an enemy trolldier jumped at the same time, gardened eachother at the same time, died to falldamage at the same time and then typed "lol" into chat at the exact same time. I never saw them again after that but im pretty sure I could use our now unbreakable bond of telepathy that was established that instant to find them.

“I hate when Soundsmith releases a new video, the maps are flooded with trollgiers for a month afterwards” - some random Hightower player from a game I played

Excellent video toolsmith. I will now queue for plr_hightower and proceed to bottom frag 3:129 in an attempt to land market gardens 👍

As a Heavy main, I’d just like to thank all Trolldier mains for being the best moving targets ever, you’ve really helped me improve my aim, and got me my first kill streak ever!

I can't even understate how solid this video is, I definitely wasn't expecting more trolldier tutorial content from you, but I am MORE than pleased. Your editing has gotten really good, I think this is a great introduction into probably the funnest way to the play the game. Much love dude

If You are reading the comments of a peasant like me, Soundsmith, I would love to animate something for Your next video. Whatever You please. I love Your content and blazin'-hot takes.

I love how there are comments from over a day ago from members and his friends, I love you Ethan.

One of my favorite moments while playing Trolldier was when I accidentally saved our medic from an enemy sniper. I had built up a lot of speed and ended up passing in front of the medic as the sniper was lining up his shot. The sniper headshot me rather than the medic, but it was fully charged, so I died anyway. He happened to be using the Classic, so I exploded in a violent pile of gibs right in front of the medic I accidentally saved. Both parties had a good laugh about it. 10/10 would jump again

"Airstrafing" *medic main's eyes start to glow*

Ethan comes out of hibernation and drops a fucking masterpiece holy shit.

Ethan's pretending he isn't trying to make an army. Love it

I will never get over how they added a big ol' funnel to the Rocket Jumper that clips when you reload and valve didn't even bother to notice it, remember this was when the game wasn't fully abandoned too.

That damn falling sound effect is the thing of PTSD nightmares, what have you unleashed upon this land? (also nice video, too)

"he goes fast and hits people with a stick" ~aunt

Can’t believe that force of nature scout hit his shot

0:00 - Intro 0:35 - Basics 2:15 - The Jumping Stuff 6:51 - The Airborne Stuff 11:19 - The Shovel Stuff 13:11 - Some Practice Tips & Closing Thoughts 14:40 - Credits I know this is seven months late, but I just wanted to make this for myself. If even one person gets a use out of this, I'm happy!

"were gonna be sidestepping the health cost" Soldier: *spotdodges*

"Source engine is dumb, Funny wavy line go zoom." This needs to be on a t-shirt.

I swear this is better then the original: How To Trolldier.

Besides being a market gardener tutorial, this was the rocket jumping tutorial I've been looking for. Out of all the tutorials I've seen and people I've asked, nobody bothered to explain that you have to *let go of W* to airstrafe. Thank you.

"You arent exactly aiming a gun at enemy gamers" -Some gamer with a comically large spoon

“If you crouch while on the ground it brings your torso down but if you crouch while in the air it brings your legs up” Isn’t that how it works in real life?

sound: "land next to them" Me: THE BUTTER ZONE

I love trollgier and demoknight because it basically makes you mimic the other projectile class's playstyle, but with your body. Trolldier makes you throw yourself in an arc to land where your target will be when you land, and demoknight does the same but goes in a straight line (unless you're trimping)

Well, he kept his promise to remake this. A man of his Word.

3:27 aren’t nobody gonna talk about how clean that transition is?

"Don't hold W. I cannot overstate how important it is to break this muscle memory early on." Me, with 200 hours on Soldier holding W: "Oh no"

3:27 that transition has no business being that smooth 💀😩

I like how there's literally a fucking culture surrounding this weapon.

"Pogsmith in the thumbnail doesn't exist, he can't hurt you: Pogsmith in the thumbnail:

Spy: Gentlemen, this is a shovel. Soldier: Dear god. Spy: There's more. Soldier: No!

14:39 this looks really cool. The editing is top tier in this vid goh damn

“Don’t hold W in the air. Ever.” Some high and mighty know-it-all: Well, actually- Ethan: (pulls out commically large spoon) *BONG*

*therapist: "pog soundsmith cant hurt you, hes not real"* *Pog soundsmith:*

Funny rocket man: "To land right next to them" My brain: "The Butter Zone"

1:00 lmao sharpness V. Minecraft will have mace soon so this aged I guess

Can we all just take a moment to admire how smooth the editing on this video was

*I Can't wait for the remake of "how to counter Trolldier" to be 43 seconds long video of the Natasha Heavy*

"195 is my favorite number" Off to a great start already.

So many crazy play style in one class, that's why we love this game, forever.

This video is an absolute masterpiece. Editing is solid, every joke got a laugh outta me, information is top-tier and you didn't worry too much about specifics while also acknowledging them. Every example was clear and the way you conveyed the information is better than actual teachers. Seriously man, if you ever quit RU-vid, go into teaching.

I should name my market garden the “comically funny joke”

A quick tip to everyone reading this: Do yourself a favor and rebind crouch to shift. It's much better for your pinky

My favorite feeling playing trolldier: Hitting an airborne enemy, especially if its an enemy soldier or scout, and even better when you hit another enemy once you land not as good but still love it: missing an airborne enemy, but killing someone else with the same swing edit: some time after this I rocket jumped into a tunnel and had a lot of horizontal speed, enough to catch up with this scout I was chasing. Ended up hitting a cloaked spy who is also the only reason I didnt hit that scout. I didnt even know that spy was there.

"Don't hold W." Pyro mains trying the trolldier: Well-

fun fact: the best feeling in the world is gardening a friend in your call and every one going ape shit

"The're an Enemy Gamer, they can Game to" -Mahatma Gandhi

im just phisically incapable of not holding W while im moving forward

You know the best part? The "RETIRED" that plays every time he kills someone.

ah yes my favorite meme spoon ever was: “I watched a Soundsmith video”

“And the shovel stuff” Proceeds to get an ad about depression

SOUNDSMITH THEY ADDED MARKET GARDING IN MINECRAFTS NEW UPDATE WITH THE MACE

Alternate title: Funny man shows you how to get high on shovels.

This unironically doubles as the best rocket jumping tutorial out there

Hey guys, I'm not sure if I should be concerned or not but my garden that had some ginger spontaneously growing in it has changed into a shrine of ginger with a shovel i never bought sitting in the center of it. I'm scared, I swear it whispers "195" to me when I sleep. What should I do?

After finally getting a laptop that can run games without crashing, I'm going to spend so much time trying every meme playstyle possible in this game, starting with this glorious weapon. Thank you, SoundSmith. Thank you for this amazing list of tutorials that I've wanted to put into practice for over a year now.

"wearer cannot carry the intelligence briefcase or PASS Time JACK" what happened here?

Soldier: "Hey valve can i have some melee crits?" Valve: "Only a spoonful" Soldier: 1:46

"Don't hold W" That's why im going demoknight

We got the whole combo in Minecraft now !

"Power up our comically large spoon... " I like this man. I like his vibes

Finally, a tutorial that doesn't skimp out on the rocket jump and air strafing

"using wasd" me who's left handed on mouse: well.. shit

Watching this video as a tutorial for the Minecraft mace cus it is basically the same thing lol

Honestly, more games with intuition-heavy tech need tutorials like this. On paper it doesn’t seem hard, but depending on how well it clicks with someone it could be near impossible. Stuff like this helps clear up a lot of that mysticism.

"Consistently updated" *dies inside*

3:27 Soundsmith back at it again with those SMOOTH transitions

This video is so well edited, excellent job Mr. Smith

Soundsmith Editing Level: G O D

This video was made amazingly The editing is so good

Me: *hears Soundsmith’s voice* Huh, something is different...

One of the interesting side grades for trolldier is actually the liberty launcher, and market gardener. The extra rocket in the liberty launcher lets you do some cool stuff that isn’t as easy or is just flat out impossible with 4 rockets. If you use the battalion’s backup as well, health packs will give you more hp, and the liberty launcher has a built in modifier that makes them deal less damage. It’s cool.

Therapist: “Family Friendly SoundSmith isn’t real, he can’t hurt you!” Family Friendly SoundSmith:

10:00 can we all just appreciate this beautiful image

The editing on this one was sharp, snappy, quick, and very polished. Notably so. Your content is usually pretty good editing-wise, but this is excellent.

Undeniably the BEST Market Garden tutorial out there!

This feels like a sponsored video by valve to promote TF2, and given that Dane released a video with the same feeling at a similar time, I’m weirdly excited right now.

Today I learned: Don't hold W, been playing the game wrong for a long time.

Soundsmith: "Don't hold 'w'!" Pyro mains trying to get into solly: "I... don't... comprehend..."

Probaly my favorite tf2 video on RU-vid and definitely in my top 10 favorites. The editing combined with the humor and you know, THE SHOVELING STUFF, is very good

"It's a lot of effort, for something so silly" Sums it up pretty well I think, and that's why I love it.

I love how he has his kill sound “Retired” from Jojo all star battle/eyes of heaven

*"TF2 is game where you can go speeds up to mach 5 and hit people with a shovel."*

I watched this 1 year ago, when I first started playing TF2. Now I like to think I got a good grasp of the game in general, and Trolldier specifically, and does it feel nostalgic to come back! You taught me how to play in one of my favourite ways. Thank you, Soundsmith

That transition at 3:28 was mint

*super math stuff* Dumb it down for me broski “Funny wavy line go zoom” Ohhhhhh

I saw this and I was like: "He didn't..." then I watched and I was like "HOLY SHIT HE DID"

I have never seen such a helpful, funny and entertaining tutorial as good as this one. You sir, are an epic gamer.

3:27 That transition was so smooth. Fantastic work on this vid

God no wonder this took so long the animation and editing is so fucken smooth, solid 10 outta 10

Sound smith, I recently found a interesting maneuver to jump from the tower to red side ramp in Hightower. Interestingly it uses loose cannon and the tide turner. First you jump from the tower into the air then do a mid air jump and finally charge around the hut in the back onto red side ramp. If you do it correctly you won’t take fall dmg due to ramp sliding.

I keep coming back to this video, the quality is downright mesmerizing!

Does every TFtuber have godlike editing? Like holy shit we are so blessed to have these high quality videos.

"195 is my favorite number." I tend to agree.

6:40 was such a cool scene. It was also probably the best transition too. Good job SoundSmith, keep up the good work!

Always a good day when I see these types of vids, makes me want to get back into playing the game I hardly was able to play. All you TF2 film bois have the funniest god damn sense of humor.

Around 5 minutes after i watched this, i market gardened a Scout.

This is some lazy purple level editing, I was smiling like a little kid the whole time

Sound's beard is having a stroke in the sfm parts, it's too excited about being in a video again.

I love how this is formatted, it's super well done.
