What is TF2's Most INFURIATING Item? 

Ironically, the Enforcer used to be a hated weapon itself when it used to have a flat +20% extra damage. Keep in mind that at this time, the Diamondback only gained crits on destroying buildings with Sappers, which is why nobody used it at that time. Funny, a world where the Enforcer reigned supreme and the Diamondback was left in the dust.

Me after learning the enforcer ignores the wranglers shield: perhaps i treated you to harshly.

Evil TheWhat: "Hahahah... I don't pay my taxes" That isn't evil, that's based

Fun fact: the Sydney Sleeper is banned in competitive because covering a pushing team in mini-crit juice (and dealing 150 damage) is more powerful than deleting one person.

The item i personally hate the most is the Backburner. Not because the weapon itself is bad, but because people use it for w+m1ing instead of just using it as a flank tool like it's supposed to be.

I remember blindly firing the Loose Cannon into the Harvest control point, getting a double donk, and killing everyone on the entire point at once. The only Demoman moment that truly rivals this moment was when a engineer was setting up a level 2 sentry on the 2Fort bridge, and I was basically dead meat...so as a full on Caberknight I charged directly into the sentry and took 3 people down with me

Thewhat talks about how amazing enforcer is for 18 minutes straight

How to introduce a evil character that is actually good: “hahaha, I don’t pay my taxes”

The piss bot is freaking hilarious. "He's got the loadout"

The worst weapons are the ones that punish YOU for bad teammates Kunai, Eyelander, Bazaar bargain, etc Some are balanced with awful starting stats or other harsh downsides, but Kunai is the greatest offender in this group... since Spy has so many options and abilities for getting behind enemy lines the downsides it has are almost all immediately countered

The Sydney Sleeper, to me, is sort of an admission of my own terrible Sniper skill. I use it because I can’t even headshot, and the piss effect makes me feel like I’m at least doing something.

Its crazy how the DR since its release has completely mitigated the downside of half spys unlocks and after being nerfed 5 times it's STILL doing it lol

The power I feel gunning down DR spies with the Enforcer can not be described...

As a trolldier, i am basically laughing at the vaccinator medics who think that their insanely op vacuum cleaner will save them from me. All it takes is one well-timed garden to kill a medic and one well-timed bhop to kill his patient. It is so stupid how they think that they are safe but completely ignore the melee classes. Also Enforcer is the chad gun, can't and won't argue with that.

The Vaccinator is annoying to fight, but I do keep it in a load out for one reason. Bullet resistance is really good against bots. That’s why I named my Vaccinator “Valve Anti-Cheat”.

Quick bit of advice on countering DR spies: Jarate does not go away after the dead ringer activates. Take this as you will.

I’m kinda surprised the Blackbox/Conch wasn’t mentioned. It’s really annoying dealing with a soldier with that combo, especially when you add a Medic on top of that. I definitely expected Scout’s annoying weapon to be the FaN because of the knock back mechanic (similar to why the Loose Cannon was here), but I don’t make the rules, there are no rules

12:57 the Sydney sleeper is somewhat respectable because they are aware it doesn’t take skill But Machina, jarate, bushwacka, bazaar bargain, even stock sniper, because they all claim that it takes *skill*

Can't believe Evil TheWhat was already arrested for tax evasion in his debut appearance. Not because I'm upset we lost a good character, but just because I'm surprised the government was competent for once.

I feel like theres an argument to be made that its a tie between the scorch shot and the vaccinator, but I have seen a LOT less hate towards those two, especially the vaccinator, because they are so useful against fighting the bots.

So, why is the Shortstop shove annoying? Simple. Imagine being able to literally push someone back 1 meter, you can do that to HEAVIES. Jesus christ this isn't Scouts canon strength frickin bs! And I haven't even talked about the 1 damage. If you get hit 125 times as a light class you literally die! Like, seriously, if you get bullied in school, you'll know that none of them can yeet you in the air. OH BOY, SCOUT LITERALLY HAS THE ABILITY TO THROW THEM IN THE AIR IF YOU AIM UP! Absolutely bs. The canonical power of Scout is supposed to be bad, and this shows the opposite. The shortstop shove should be removed, because all of it is literally THE OPPOSITE of scouts purpose. Stay back instead of go in, shove Heavies a meter back and into the air without breaking your fingers when Scout literally needed a femur to kill a baby bear!

0:58 why did he bring that up, we all do it.

I thought your evil persona was brickest brick, you two basically blend together as one schitzo patient off his meds in my mind

I remember two soldiers bombing me at the same time as Medic with the Vaccinator, it took the guy I was healing 4-5 seconds to turn around and realize I was being attacked, but I was still alive and no the soldiers didn't manage to kill me. Still I hope Sniper get nerfed first because is literally the only reason I would pull out the Vaccinator in the first place.

Not just 1, not 2, but 3 use cases for the enforcer against some of the most annoying weapons in the game. I'm utterly flabbergasted on how I and the entirety of the TF2 community have slept on what is one of the best weapon picks. You strike again TheWhat

6:40 well this caught me offguard

We short circuit engis sleep at night by reciting a mantra of "It's Valve's fault for not fixing the weapon not ours" before bed and then we dream of all the demo and soldiers who failed to stop our cart push because of our infinite delete projectile gun.

I despise the stock sticky launcher for its ability to just box you out with no brain cells or mechanical skill needed. It’s not nearly as bad with the other two sticky launchers and obviously the sticky jumper but I think stock needs a nerf

Thewhat, there is another class you can't one shot in medieval mode. An eyelander demo with 4 heads gets left with 1hp, but getting there is a pain. A soldier can also use the battalion's backup to make the crit survivable by anyone except a kunai spy.

1:19 Now that's a name I haven't heard in a long time...

Missed opportunity for the doppleganger to be called "TheThat"

8:57 sick overwatch picture! i hope it doesnt change to a single frame of tracer's feet!

Yeah, Spy weapon hate/garbage status versus what I actually see in game is…weird. The Diamondback is rightfully derided as overpowered, but I never see it around; the YER is practically worthless, but I still see enemy spies using it.

55% of TF2 players: what's the manmelter? 100% of TF2 players: what about the flare gun that stuns and enables w m1ing without w?

The Phlog, although it can be hard countered with the direct hit, because it doesn't have an airblast.

>sees a pyro under vacc bullet resistance >keeps firing at him with bullets knowing full well that 75% of his damage is being negated and seeing that the pyro is also being healed >dies >"BuT VaCcInAtOr" >"By AlL mEaNs I sHoUlDvE BeEn ThE oNe To SuRvIvE tHiS eNcOuNtEr" No you shouldn't have, because you were the one to effectively keep firing at an ubered enemy while almost standing still

11:10 he is literally ubercharged my guy. The vaccinator is made for small 1v1or 1v2 engagement where there's not a lot of damage types around. You literally fought it on the worst possible terms. But also I still agree. Vaccinator is the most annoying medic weapon

the scorch shot haunts my dreams. as a scout main who doesn’t have all the unlocks the scorch shot can easily bring me to my end. I have longed to get the mad milk to deal with them for ages

13:26 God … the headshot vs bodyshot argument. Frankly getting killed by an both sends you back to respawn room. You can stop with all that respect stuff if it going just send me back to walk halfway across the map again. Anyway in the case of a bodyshot it takes longer for the Sniper to kill, having to charge a full shot to get 150 damage or several shots. Within that you can at least accomplish a couple of things. If you survive you can retreat and heal up come back. Whereas a headshot(crits) send you back to the respawn room. Nah, I rather have my opposing Sniper be more interactive or take a bit longer. Especially since the Sidney Sleeper is a team orient sniper rifle that has the Sniper charge up shot( faster than stock tho). So the Sniper either takes a bit longer to kill you or their teammate help finish you off. So again you have higher degree of interaction with that Sniper than just avoiding sight lines (which isn’t possible on all maps) and killcams. Also Sidney Sleeper headshot now (minicrit) (you clips show low health targets dying if it only takes one 68 damage shots to kill them)

tbh you do make a good point about the enforcer. it's not a good design choice to have a weapon that is used for one thing and one thing alone, but it is pretty funny to see that a weapon that half of the people that play the game don't even remember the name is the solution to a lot of annoying things

We're all really ignoring Tracer shoving her feet in our face aren't we

This is a certified Bubble Guppies moment.

Him ranting about the enforcer:🙂 Me using the loch n load: 🙂

13:04 "Atatatatatata... Bubble guppies" LMAO 😂😂😂😂😂😭

Evil The What: I don’t pay my taxes Same

In my mind, I would think the force of nature is most annoying as it sends you flying like an extra strength air blast that deals damage

5:14 your bait-and-switch here reminded me of a FUNKe video from the olden days. :D

i agree 100% with the spy part, except replace spy with sniper. im in EST virginia, and every game i join has a topscoring sniper every game. the game is unplayable with an enemy sniper

I rarely remember to use the Soda Popper's "Hype" meter. I just use it cuz I like DB shotguns and the FAN is punishing as hell

I think the original sandman with the stun was the most infuriating i faced in TF2, as a heavy main it was so bad that i stop playing for months, started playing and stopped again. And then started with a friend on special servers like bosses or deathrun, but not on normal games for a very long time. I did start with TF2 when it was already free, but still a very long time ago.

The item I have the most is the tide turner for one specific use case: a braindead 'hybrid knight' that doesnt actually play like one who uses the loch and load because they cant hit pills and charges back to spawn the moment they take damage. They tend to go on long kill streaks because they NEVER fight an encounter where they take damage and they have an inflated ego because of it even if they die literally instantly when they dont have a charge to run away with. Albeit, that has more to do with the people that play this way rather than the item itself

The ham is the real most annoying weapon because most of the people who use it won’t shut up about how they use the ham. Every time I see a profile with HM in its user name, I know they’re gonna have their entire profile based around it. Like people who ask for poop nsfw channels in a discord server.

13:14, if youre annoyed by body shots you should have the machina here, it’s literally better at bodyshotting than the sydney sleeper, the only reason sydney sleeper snipers only bodyshot is because it has a stat saying “no headshots”

The most annoying weapon for me is all of them because I'm bad at the game and die a lot

9:12 everyone exaggerates how good this weapon is, I main demo and pyro (dragons fury, detonator, axtingusher, which are all require a projectile)

The best part about light classes being marked for death is that it’s super easy to kill them with the loch-n-load, especially towards an engi with the rescue ranger moving his buildings. It is punishing with the clip size 25% smaller which makes killing a heavy much harder, but that projectile speed comes in clutch a lot of times and the extra building damage too.

9:56 I love the “like a total weenie” thing cause I do that e v e r y s i n g l e d a y

The Dead Ringer gives a 75% damage resistance and not 66% this video is literally unwatchable

I like the kunai because it helps me not instantly die after 1 engagement, but i wouldn't be caught dead using the dead ringer

That was a really cool frag you got at 8:57 I had to slow down the video just to see how cool it is!

I love when the soda popper Scout flys away as soon as I deal 1 damage

The Sydney sleeper is the only sniper rifle I don't get mad at because it's the only balanced sniper rifle in the game

I am a proud user of the scorch shot for the pure reason that I don't miss flares... Ah I love the smell of getting yelled at my snipers in the morning

Congrats evilthewhat, you've converted me to the church of enforcer now

I feel like 2 of these are just more "I don't like this weapon" than they are annoying lmao, with the vaccinator clip that's just straight skill issue, I mean seriously if there was a soldier (which there probably fucking SHOULD BE) the pyro could've been dealt with, and even if the medic switched resistance, well now you could do it, then there's the fucking Sydney sleeper which was complaining about body shots, and... well, DO I REALLY NEED TO EXPLAIN THIS? I mean seriously if you were complaining about being constantly minicrit I'd understand, but *bodyshots?* like seriously in that case the machine probably should've been there instead of the Sydney sleeper

Piss Baby. 13:33 the damage has already been done, I'm sorry.

You know how else I can negate a 66% damage reduction? Clicking someone’s head with the ambassador.

I demand 1 hour long video about how good enforcer is.

"What? Why!" He says as he pretends to be a bot spamming fake bot links during a time when bots are incredibly common

The Hog Rider card is unlocked from the Spell Valley (Arena 5). He is a very fast building-targeting, melee troop with moderately high hitpoints and damage. He appears just like his Clash of Clans counterpart; a man with brown eyebrows, a beard, a mohawk, and a golden body piercing in his left ear who is riding a hog. A Hog Rider card costs 4 Elixir to deploy. Strategy His fast move speed can boost forward mini tanks like an Ice Golem in a push. At the same time, he can also function as a tank for lower hitpoint troops such as Goblins as he still has a fair amount of health. Most cheap swarms complement the Hog Rider well, as they are nearly as fast as him and usually force more than one card out of the opponent's hand. The Hog Rider struggles with swarms, as they can damage him down and defeat him quickly while obstructing his path. Barbarians in particular can fully counter him without very strict timing on the defender's part, though be wary of spells. A Hunter can kill the Hog Rider in 2 hits if placed right on top of it. However, if you place something in front of the Hog Rider, the Hunter's splash will damage the Hog Rider and hit the card in front of it more. The Hog Rider in conjunction with the Freeze can surprise the opponent and allow the Hog Rider to deal much more damage than anticipated, especially if the opponent's go-to counter is a swarm, or swarms are their only effective counter to him. Skeletons and Bats will immediately be defeated by the spell, while Spear Goblins, Goblins, and Minions will be at low enough health to be defeated by a follow up Zap or Giant Snowball. However, this strategy isn't very effective against buildings as the Hog Rider will take a while to destroy the building, giving the opponent ample time to articulate another counter. Against non-swarm troops, it can deal a lot of damage during the freeze time, but this can allow the opponent to set up a massive counterpush. For this reason, players should either only go for a Hog Rider + Freeze when they have other units backing it up from a counterattack, or if the match is about to end and they need to deal as much damage as possible. It is not a good idea to send in a Hog Rider simply to destroy a building, especially if it is the only building targeting unit available, as defeating Crown Towers becomes substantially more difficult. Spells or simply waiting out the lifetime of the building are more effective. The exception to this is an Elixir Collector placed in front of the King's Tower. If a Hog Rider placed at the bridge, he can destroy the Collector for a positive Elixir trade, though the damage from both Princess Towers will usually mean he does not survive to deal any damage to them. However, if the opponent sends in defending troops, it can be an opportunity to gain spell damage value. In a deck with several low-cost cards, it might be worth it to simply send the Hog Rider against one building. These decks shuffle their card rotation quick enough, that they will arrive to their next Hog Rider before the next building arrives in the opponent's card rotation. Long-ranged troops like Musketeer and Flying Machine can snipe those buildings, preserving some of the Hog Rider's health, possibly allowing it to get some Tower damage. When there are buildings placed in the middle to counter the Hog Rider, understanding the placement of the Hog Rider and the type of building placed can help the Hog Rider to bypass certain buildings. Passive buildings such as spawners and Elixir Collector have a larger hitbox than defensive buildings; which means that if a passive building was placed 3 tiles away from the river in the middle of the opponent's side, then it is impossible for the Hog Rider to bypass that placement as the Hog Rider will get pulled to that building. Defensive buildings have a smaller hitbox than a passive building, which means if that if a defensive building was placed three tiles away from the river in the middle of the opponent's side, a Hog Rider placed at the very left or right side of the Arena may be able to bypass it due to its smaller hitbox. If the player has a building already placed down in the center of the arena, and the opponent tries to bypass it with a Hog Rider at the edge of the arena, they can use certain air troops to push the Hog Rider towards the building as it jumps over the river, effectively denying the bypass attempt. They must be already hovering over the correct placement, as very quick reflexes are required to correctly perform this technique. For Bats, Skeleton Dragons, and Minion Horde, they should be placed right in front of the Hog Rider as soon as it is deployed. For Minions, Skeleton Barrel, Mega Minion, Flying Machine, Electro Dragon, Baby Dragon, Inferno Dragon, Balloon, and Lava Hound, stagger the above placement one tile to the right if the Hog Rider is placed on the left side of the arena, and vice versa. They can also use ground troops to achieve the same result. Something like an Ice Golem deployed at the Hog Rider’s landing spot will obstruct his path and force him to go around the unit, which causes him to be closer to the building instead of the Crown Tower. The Hog Rider can kite Very Fast non-building targeting troops due to his own Very Fast speed and building only targeting if he is placed on the fourth tile from the bridge, slightly into the opposite lane. He can also stall grounded units when placed right at the bridge. He will pull them towards him while deploying, and then be untargetable by them when he jumps over the bridge. After landing, he will pull them back. This can be useful when the player needs to deal damage in the same lane they are defending. It will also help separate troops behind a tank in a large push. A Tornado placed on the second tile front of the player's King's Tower and staggered two tiles towards the Princess Tower will activate it without any damage dealt to the Princess Tower, helping them in defending future pushes. This can also be a method of mitigating all damage dealt to a Princess Tower, but doing this more than three times may result in the King's Tower's health being low enough to be targeted directly, opening up the possible threat of a back door three crown. A better alternative is to pull the Hog away from the Princess Tower into the attacking range of all three Crown Towers, which will negate all damage as long as none of them are already distracted A very powerful combo is the Hog Rider, the Musketeer, and the Valkyrie, typically referred to as the Trifecta. The Musketeer will defend against most troops, while the Valkyrie can protect her and the Hog Rider from swarms or high damage units. The Hog Rider is used to deal damage to the tower. This can be effectively countered by Lightning, one-shotting the Musketeer and severely damaging both the Valkyrie and Hog Rider. The Minion Horde is also effective, but the enemy can Zap them and the Musketeer will one-shot them all. Even if the Musketeer is defeated, the Hog Rider and Valkyrie will have enough time to severely damage the Tower. The Hog Rider should be placed behind the Valkyrie to give it a boost so that it stays in front of the Hog Rider, protecting it. A Hog Rider combined with a Goblin Barrel can be awkward for the opponent to defend against. Timing it so that the Hog Rider is tanking the tower shots for the Goblins is the most effective way to deal damage. However, a Barbarian Barrel can shut this down with minimal Tower damage for a positive Elixir trade, as long as the Goblin Barrel was placed directly on the Tower. Pairing the Hog Rider with the Balloon can deal devastating damage. If executed properly, the Hog Rider will act as a tank while the Balloon threatens to deal massive damage. The Hog Rider can also destroy any buildings attempting to slow down the combo. However, this combo is very vulnerable to swarms and anti-air cards as neither of the troops target anything but buildings. Additionally, they are easy to separate, due to the disparity in move speeds. Alternatively, the Hog Rider and the Balloon can be played in different lanes to spread the opponent's defenses thin. However, a building or Tornado can bring them back together for an easier defense. The Hog Rider can be paired with the Lumberjack as both a swarm bait and damage combo. It is a very fast combo with an extremely high damage output potential, so the enemy will likely try to counter it with a swarm. If this happens, use a spell like Arrows to render the opponent defenseless. If they manage to defeat the Lumberjack, the dropped Rage will make the Hog Rider even more dangerous than it normally is. A fast and deadly combination is the Hog Rider and Mini P.E.K.K.A. combo. Both units are fast but the Mini P.E.K.K.A. does much more damage and does not attack only buildings so the Mini P.E.K.K.A. can deal with troops like the Executioner and Musketeer. However, this combo can be defeated with swarms like Skeleton Army, which will defeat both of them since neither of them can deal area damage. They are also unable to target air troops, so the Minion Horde can stop this easily. A risky play is to deploy the Hog Rider at the bridge as soon as the match starts. If the opponent does not react fast enough, the Hog Rider will deal a significant amount of damage to the Princess Tower. This can also allow the player to quickly scout the opponent's deck if they happen to react to him fast enough

4:09 ah yes, the directs hit, my favorite melee weapon

12:43 I have not laughed that hard in months. The epic montage beat drop on the stationary Engie headshot

4:20 You got good taste!

that small piece of fancy clown during the character introductions caught me off guard in a very good way

the one thing that annoys me is the bugs inside my skin.

You know what else beats the wrangler? The bison Can't hide behind the 600 health sentry, if the projectile just flies through it

Hoo boy, I knew you were going to talk about either the kunai or the dead ringer, but I never expected you to talk about the combo itself instead. I actually use both items very often, but surprisingly never together. Great, I'm not annoying!

I think for getting bodyshotted, the machina is more infuriating. Because of the damage bonus, you can now almost 1 shot pyros and demos.

As an owner of a strange enforcer, i must admit that the enforcer is good. I don't think it has any problems tbh. The disguising and shooting is really unique as a concept and rewards spies trying to sneak behind scouts so they can be rewarded with a kill despite not being fast enough. It's not frustrating to fight against because it can't really kill you as fast as some other items in this video, but you don't feel at a disadvantage because of the damage bonus. And also the gun looks and sounds nice. Thank you for coming to my TED talk

Diamondback doesnt bother anyone that much coz when you manage to get the crits, the chance of missing your shots at mid - longer range increase to 50%.

I hate the kunai All my homies hate the kunai

the crit bucket actually doesn't take crits into account, only base damage, so the skullcutter only has higher crit chance because of it's higher base damage.

tbh one thing i find really annoying is demoknight in general, specifically eyelander and zatoichi if your team is garbage your team will feed the enemy demoknight free heads/kills with the eyelander, you get more hp then soldier, faster then scout, damage resistance to two out of four damage types in this game, and then a get out of jail free card/ free crit. eyelander demoknights can feel unkillable unless you are using something that directly counters it, like pyro or engineer, but the second they are about to die they just charge away to live to tell the tale half zatoichi demos can also feel unkillable due to their crazy amounts of potential overheal, if your team feeds them free kills they will basically be unkillable with the epic 300 hp, damage resistant to fire 'plosive get outta jail free! i dont like playing the classes that counter demoknight either, it is just pain

I believe you missed a small detail all swords do not random Crit. But as you can see the Scotsman skull cutter is a halberd. Halberds are not swords so there for it can randomly crit

I think the enforcer is one of spy’s best revolvers. I like the Sydney Sleeper because piss and it is how I cope with the lack of skill

“Has a strict no logs policy” My house which is made of logs *Evaporates*

11:13 Dying to an Uber while dealing only one damage type with no team support and not even trying to go for a melee kill which is the only vaccinator counter: "clearly the vaccinator is overpowered" Not disagreeing, but come on you could've picked a better clip.

"nerf the manmelter!" I feel a disturbance in the force... Like a thousand voices are all crying out at once.

thewhatshow: vpn AD me: "switching country to the US in internet because i can't afford it in real life"

13:45 me who only uses sydney sleeper with sniper: [evil laugh here]

0:30oh you're taking about sniper?I agree

I am a couple vape pen drags and nearly an edible deep tonight, so when I heard the knocking at the end of the video in front of our first floor sliding door window I nearly shat a brick.

0:14 Well this is one is very specific.

When the PISSBABY is self conscious about constantly PISSING HIMSELF.

An item i find annoying is every single demoknight related thing in the game

TF2's most infuriating players are ones who get in your face as a soldier or demoman and I have to blow both of us up or I die and they live

“I don’t pay my taxes”. I automatically like you.

THIS IS SOMETHING LIKE THE HOLOCAUST *sniper shoots a engineer* 12:47

8:51 TF2 was never developed as “movement shooter”. Two-thirds of the mercenaries have no mobility without unlocks that were put later in the game cycle. Also those unlocks still pale in comparison to the mobility that 1/3 has. It mostly just fall on players pushing the game physics to it limit. Do thing that developers never really thought of. That were you had people who called trimping a bug while rocket jumping and surfing exist. So don’t why people say “movement shooter” when the majority of the class can’t cover larger distance within a short time or access specific spots on maps.

this guys an enforcer gun spy
