TF2 - The Sticky Jumper 

Demoflight tf2

Toofty hitting direct hits on flying Soldier... Toofty missing 3 shots on a stationary Heavy...

Give the same knockback you get when using it to enemies. Sending them flying off Upward is my dream.

Oh yeah us brits call a 'sweatshirt' a 'jumper' btw I would hate for that awesome joke not to land...

2:44 Here we see a wild spybird in its natural habitat. Due to thier main predators demohawks, thier population sadly just went extinct

welp that was 100% convincing, time to boot up tf2 and fly around

Okay fun fact for you Brits, The triangle in America means caution mostly behind tractors moving on the road or Semi Truck(which is one of those big trucks that haul trailers also all tractors have the triangle ) meaning slow down cause it's moving slow and you don't want to bump into it hurting you or the driver of the tractor. Bonus fact! It is required to have the Caution Triangle in the back of a tractor or you get a ticket.

I want Demo to get his own Market Gardener. That's what would make this weapon viable. ;)

Whenever you're a sniper and you hear that sound, It's best you ALT + F4

The sticky jumper actually didn't look like what was shown at 4:37 when it came out. That's the second model. It used the default stickybomb launcher model, with no changes at all, making it really confusing to discern who was using what back in the day.

I can't look at this weapon and not immediately feel nostalgic for Sirky and his mastery of the "yumper."

when my team is holding their own but could use more firepower: -Stickybomb Launcher when my team is losing tragically and im better off just having fun on my own: -Sticky Jumper

**logs into tf2. Equips Natasha.** now we wait.

“What other item in TF2 can you do this with?” *Jumps to Badwater Second in three seconds.* Engineer TF2: *Builds Teleporter*

So the Sticky Jumper changes demo's role as the damage dealer, relying on others like the Scout to finish off enemies, to the 100% opposite - a high mobility class used for picking off stray enemies as well as teleporters.

"I'm not gonna say 'sticky'" You're a hero. Accept my Like medal.

i remember good old days when i used to put 8 stickies with this thing just so i can be thrown at sky box and get sniped cuz it took that long to fall

3:28 The pose that the ragdoll of the engineer made is so good

Stickjumper: "In all ways except physical, I'm a Stickybomb Launcher." People will complain about anything you use, but I'm glad you really enjoy this weapon. Demo Flight is a great subclass name, it needs to be made official.

obviously the bright orange color atracts clueless f2p´s to shoot it at you

"Here's the stats. This one's quite important." The exact moment I lost my shit.

ive been playing with this weapon for a while now, i like to call it the "DemoBird" sub-class

The fact that you made a vid on how to spam properly and are now talking about not having traps is... Ironic

Also, what I call "short hopping" is AMAZING. You can close distances extremely quickly without fall damage. If anyone is wondering short hopping is when you lay down a single stickey on the ground and then without jumping, crouch and then move slightly in the way you wish. Make sure you are mostly standing above the sticky when u det. This will allow you to "short hop"

Sticky jumper: **Exists** Snipers: Why do I hear boss music?

1:04 you can do the same jump even faster with a beggar's bazooka, I have done this jump several times and blindpyro has done it as well.

The sticky jumper makes Demo fun enough for me that I actually play him. (I understand him being fun in general, he's just not much for me, other than his strange memey subclasses.)

Sticky jumper is basically a more aggressive and fast hybrid night, more mobility in exchange for no extra resistance

flying scotspan (aka my favorite demoman playstyle) - base jumper - sticky jumper - frying pan trust me, this is a valid strategy that actually works

Spy went to the moon. Legend says he's still falling. 2:45

somebody once told me the world is going to roll me, I aint the sharpest tool in the shed

1:02 "what other items can you use to get around like this" Demoknight: allow me to introduce myself

02:44 Spy's first trip to moon

I've been playing like this as demo for the past 2 or 3 weeks. It is a viable playstyle and makes things a lot more fun. Demoman feels so much more free when you can escape when you want and fly everywhere. And my shots have been hitting more often with the iron bomber.

Thank you Toofty! I finally know that turning your screen around make you fast a little bit and hard to predict you are a amazing guy

1:35 i just love how the little bell ring in the backround matches with those 2 direct pipes

I think a good buff for the sticky jumper is when equipped you will have more ammo on the granade launcher

At 7:29 you jumped away from me, to take a health pack even though I was healing you. Why?

Just wanted to say that the shot at 9:51 was absolutely phenomenal.

love the videos man. keep them the heck coming

The real reason to use it is to play "jetpan black man"

Can I do a medic video with you sometime? I’m played TF2 for 5000+ hours and 600 hours on Medic, if it helps. Played comp since UGC Season 17. I’m asking this because since Array is gone I’m wanting to try and inspire more people to main Medic. I can tell you my Steam name? (My steam is Benjy52)

"It was nerfed in 2013" Bloody hell, that makes me feel old. It feels just like yesterday when you could use it to basically teleport to the other side of the map while breaking the sound barrier.

Loving the videos bro! High quality and interesting

Really enjoyed your outro!

This is my favourite video of yours the jokes were hilarious and great points were made

video was updated 11 minutes ago? *PHAH nailed it*

I remember playing tf2 with a friend a while back talking about how much I really wanted a sticky jumper because it looked fun. 10 minutes go by and I got a sticky jumper through RNG unlocks. Proudest TF2 moment right there.

I would think that the best way to balance this weapon while sticking to it's theme would be to add the ability to knock back enemies like you would with the stock sticky bomb launcher. It still wouldn't be viable but it could be fun.

2:45 Spy: *I must go, my planet needs me*

One of the best things in tf2 is that you can play thousands of hours and still has a big room to improve, and it never seems to end!

I know this is late, but I love using the sticky jumper. My playstyle usually revolves around flanking the enemy, which the sticky jumper makes a piece of cake. Then, I can get a free pipe on an enemy to instantly have the upper hand.

i love that descriptive answer that he gave at the start

Greetings, Toofty! As you could guess, I am a fan of your videos. You post precise videos, interesting concepts, and a regular upload scheme. But I have a simple question: What program do you use to record/edit your videos? I'm quite curious. Just know that I really like your videos! Love, from Morocco.

I have a question when you sticky jump or rocket jump with the rocket jumper and sticky jumper does it reset crit healing? I ask cause in one of samsmiths videos the secondaries of a trolldier to be specific he mentioned that the rocket jumper does 0 dmg true but he also said that the healing on the conch would reset when you rocket jump and he said that its because it still does damage but the dmg is 0 but the game still counts 0 dmg the same as taking real dmg from weapons so does this apply to crit healing?

3:24 "You can get to the enemy's teleporter and take him out." If I ever have the chance to get into an enemy's tele exit, demo or not, I'm pretty sure I'm going to camp it, lol

when the sticky jumper was first added it allowed you to cap the intel with the downside of 48 reserve ammo instead of 72 and reducing the demo’s base health to 100 some time later they changed the health penalty to a 100% vulnerability to fire, explosive and bullet damage then they removed that and made it so the sticky jumper had 72 reserve ammo and prevented you from capping the intel this thing used to be really bad

I love the sticky jumper and your videos.

May have to pick up one of these weapons, darn cool

I wanted this! Thank you!

9:26 what an opportunity to call it the flying scotsman haha

It's also worth mentioning that this weapon pairs really well with the iron bomber because the rollers can be used in a similar fashion to sticky bombs essentially giving you the ability to have a sticky launcher and jumper.

Great vid absolutely lovely

7:30 my man just abandoned his medic to take the health pack XD

Wow, this is uhh… exactly what I expected from this type of video. it’s scary

2:45 I love that spy ragdoll

1:13 what rout are you taking you could get there in probrably a third of the time if you just did some thing different I slowed down the footage and you messed up like 5 jumps

2:45 Spy: im a rocket now

could you tell me the name of the music at 11:00 :D oh wait its Smile by Jeremy Blake

8:57 Correct answer: Quickly upgrade the teleportar to lvl 3, takes 15 seconds at most.

Honestly I just love using the sticky jumper. Flying around the map and landing grenades is so fun!

The description of my Sticky Jumper is amazing, *'I have the Balls To Do That'*

4:37 ye it was added in 2010 but it did not look like that back then. At the beginning it looked like the regular stickybomb launcher but valve changed the appearance of it over the next few patches (obv. so u could tell the difference from both teams).

the pain train with the sticky jumper is good on koth maps because you can cap the point from anywhere from the map except your spawn (i took harvest and lakeside for reference)

0:42 jus by the flow of the vid I just knew and it was so funny to say "thats it" as he said it lmao

I love what content you make ,no swears,respect to other players, Keep up the good work

Buff the Caber so that Demo can Market Garden snipers.

Its only good to practice pipes and to annoy engies in swiftwater. In competetive scenarios you need the stock stickies, its also a good idea to use the stickiebomb launcher to pracrice your stickie floating in order to dish out more damage.

Do demo have something like market gardener?

This is perfect for me because I like hitting my shots in the moment rather than waiting for the right moments, traps aren’t my thing so I love this thing.

I've been using the sticky jumper for 30 hours and I'll be honest it's the only reason I even tried out demoman again since it's just so much fun flying around that it convinced me to learn how to aim my pills. Also I somehow already developed all of those strategies you mentioned myself while using it, guess it's just part of the nature of sticky jumper mains

How can you compare the Thermal Thruster and the Sticky Jumper?

I don’t know if this was a glitch or not but I was using the sticky jumper and gotta random crit sticky. Can someone explain

I use the Sticky Jumper in HL but only at the start of an Upward match. If you get a full buff from the medic. And you strafe just right through the air. You can land right at the feet of the enemy medic who is usually under playground. At this point you either Drop him for a +2 or he pops giving your team the advantage. This is viable due to your team being on offense and having a faster re-spawn. This can also be done a Vigil.

Scout : you'll never hit me ! Demoman with sticky jumper :accidentally jumps of the map

what would be the best primary for demo if you used the sticky jumper?

When i got the hold of this i have got more marget garden kills with frying pan and sticky jumper than actuall trolldier

Mentlegen this is amazing thanks toofty i didn’t know how to use this weapon but know im a god! Thanks mate!

Honestly the sticky jumper makes up for the loss a decent tactic is to sticky jump into someone, aim at the feet and midair shot. Flying over to the enemy team’s push and dropping a bunch of pipes from above more then validates the loss of a sticky trap or two. This weapon works best in things like upward, badwater and pier. 4 pipes is guaranteed to kill any class so I always launch 1 pipe to calculate trajectory then fire 1 more, reload midair and shoot pipes at their feet. The only thing is that you lose your ability of large group kills but a single demo who is competent at shooting pipes is more then enough. The 2 times I see it being bad is with a medic (no vaccinator) pocketing you and enclosed maps

Great video!!!!

This is a bad question but, can you use the sticky jumper while you have the intel?

To note about its use in HL: Sticky Jumper is useful at the start of Payload maps! It's generally unwise to move one's medic out of spawn without first killing or pressuring enemy sniper, so HL demos will sometimes equip sticky jumper to be part of the initial sac wave that attempts to make cheeky plays (kill sniper, kill sentry, force uber, etc.)

Imagine the cannon jumper, a loose cannon used to jump while in mid air

The only 'buff' I think the Sticky Jumper and Rocket Jumper should get would be the ability to push enemies around with the same explosive forces that the stock weapons have, just without damage. So if an enemy jumped onto your sticky jumper sticky, or you shot at them with a rocket jumper rocket, they'd get knocked around like they would with stock weapons, they'd just take no damage. It'd allow you SOME offensive use for the items, while still leaving them the same in every other way.

In my opinion, this weapon is EXTREMELY good at breaching defenses or flanks. If you’re on blu, you can launch behind red and get their sentries and support classes. If you’re defending, use it when your teammates have the point under full control, then flank behind blu. This gives time for your teammates to move to better positions.

Equip gives primary boost, eg: clip size?

I once had someone who was more scary than effective because he used the base jumper, sticky jumper, and the ullapool caber. He would drop out of the sky, kill a random person, and then disappear by either death or stick jumping

Thx man

This with the pain train is amazing for capping points, jump past the enemy and cap as fast as a scout then jump away

A little correction, when the sticky and rocket jumper were first added they looked identical to their stock version. Later they added the orange tip and then the jumping sign.
