    Ok so a lot of people hate instakill and me too. srs when you're just running with medic and you get headshotted out of nowhere. people say that you have to avoid the archer then <- lol
    theres no way to reach someone headshotting you over 20 blocks away with most classes so thats unfair.
    and for pyro and assassin similar things. you know them or have experienced them.

    im just gonna take archer in this example and say remove instakill from it.
    make it so it does like maybe 5 hearts dmg instead of instakill. but yeah killing soldiers sometimes is hard without instakill so i suggest that we make instakill for all classes work if the person they shoot/kill is carrying a flag.

    So basically instakill only works on flagcarriers and for non-flag carriers its other amount of dmg?
    idk it sounded kind of nice. what do you think?

    No. Flag carriers should not take extra damage in any situation.

    If soldier was reworked then we'd be able to phase out all the instakills.

    Could not agree more. Instakills were created in the first place to counter solder. The only class that needs to renin very-high damage is assassin though; that's useful against anybody creating a stalemate, not just soldiers.

    its not rly extra, just as it is right now.
    only for the flag carrier because soldier is used a lot. so if you make soldier rework than theres no need for instakill maybe, but now there is else soldier becomes annoying to kill without instakill and this will help

    thanks for response. next time try not to

    In some cases. Pyro needs a change, however, and therefore soldier and chemist do too.

    My suggestion is to make archer premium but keep the instakill.

    I am pretty sure twin and sir Inge are from mcpvp.

    That would be unfair.. The premium classes are there but people without the classes can still play.. If you remove archer from the freeclasses every archer main needs to buy a rank..

    First off, it is a very bad idea to make archer premium. Having a bow-weilding free class is pretty necessary, and it is very simple anyway so new players can grasp its concept quickly.
    Instakills are a highly debated topic. The majority of players seem to prefer keeping instakills as some classes such as assassin would be lacking without it. If instakills are kept, likelihood is that the instakills classes will be reworked so that instakills aren't so easy to complete. :stuck_out_tongue:

    Hm.. Instakills are obviously annoying, but without, relying on pure gameplay, classes like heavy or well-played chemist are pretty much unbeatable >_> Maybe one could nerf archer in a way that a snipe is not a shot from far away, but actually a headshot (in the head). I don't know if that's possible from game mechanics, though... Assassin seems OK to me, because he has to be near you, is predictable and avoidable (not always, obviously, but in most cases). Pyro... well, we all kind of know it's somewhat broken but don't have a decent solution aside from that.

    To be honest, not to cause flame but i honestly think people make a huge deal over instakills for no reason. Like anything else; Being insta killed? What to do? Rage? Or find a way to counter the class? Yes. Counter it instead of the rage and complaining about instakills because they are seriously not that bad ^^

    Mark my words, wait another year- you'll have complaints of instakills all over again by the same people who defend them now.

    Simple solution for all instakilling classes. For archer, use elf. For assassin, just block. For pyro, use medic. For lvl 20 dwarf, use assassin. There you go, no more worrying about instakills.

    How are they balanced? Assassin is luck/ping-based and it is skilless. Pyro is skilless and it doesn't have a counter. Archer doesn't give you time to react and it has no counter.
    DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT A REWORK IS????
