    I know not, many people will agree, but I kinda like pyro being OP. It makes for a good focal point in defense, and really encourages people to actually defend. A skilled player can cap on a pyro for most maps, ya just gotta know what to do. I think what happens is that in randy games, people get overwhelmed by other classes, but its still the pyro that kills them. A pyro on its own if fairly easy to maneuver around though.

    As a person who mains both the instakill classes, I feel like pyro is kind of dependant on your skill. If you suck ass, then you wont be a good pyro. If you can play the class without dying, you will make your team good. But if you have skill on it, you can dominate your teams defense, and wreck any offenders.

    Maybe remove the pyros helmet (-20% armor) or piece of armor and/or put a timer like the xp bar on a mage to limit the amount of arrows shot in a certain amount of time

    Uhm, this sounds like a reasonable nerf, but like, a good off would send people in waves to limit the pyros and all. But best pyro fix thot ive seen so far.

    Any thread discussing Pyro is cursed to forever not be on topic. This is what we get for building our databases on ancient Indian burial grounds

    Pyro is pretty damn op. However, I have seen lots of defending pyros struggle to kill cappers because the rest of the defence won't let the pyro get an insta kill. Quite a few times when I was ghost capping I managed to survive the insta kill because the flag room defence were in the pyro's way, which is total luck :smile:

    It would be good for the ninja 2 shot because it will make pyro not so op

    My opinion on pyro is that, yes, it is op, but it only needs a small nerf, because pyro is a really needed defence class.

    That is something which shouldn't be there, really.

    Since ninja can turn invisible, he just has to walk to the pyro, become visible again, and hit&kill him.

    This idea might work though if another class is used.

    pyro vs ninja is balanced in my opinion

    I think that pyro adds a need for more team based gameplay. It is not really that hard to kill a pyro. I think it only takes three hits from a ninja if a pyro can't get to the steak fast enough. It is hard to take on a pyro alone, but not with help from a ninja or an assassin or even a medic. Too often players (myself included) forget that this is supposed to be a team-based game.

    True. But the fact that one pyro, maybe paired with another person of almost any class, can defend a flag room very effectively... Enough said.
