But my post today is gonna cover two things;
Not to sound too vulgar, but they really Grind my Gears. I don't think that the Pyro being hailed as the easiest class is a misconception at all. First of all they have a wide and far radius of attack (with flamethrower), a back-attack bonus AND they set you on fire for regular damage that lasts an awfully long time. To be fair valve have steadily updated the game to balance certain aspects but they've done little to the Pyro. I'm not claiming that anyone can be pro with the Pyro but anyone can do game changing damage as one.
This rant basically spawns from a game last night in which i took my Spy half way across the map, was randomly flamed on by a Pyro who was attacking a teammate (the pyro died not even knowing i existed) and i subsequently died from the mini-crit + flames! It just seemed far too unfair.
I WOKE UP BEFORE 10am
Ducking success! All that talk in my last blog must have helped. Woke up, took the dog for a walk, showered, breakfast, visit to the bank all before 12am. It's like the start of Couch to 5km except for conscious hours in the day.
Anyway Thanks for the follows and comments so far! It's great having new things to read at hand so regularly.
