i've noticed lately , playing more as solly , that some pyro's (no names atm ... ) manage to shoot fire and deflect in the same second (as it seems ) .
saw it in the past , while a player in spawn did it , as if he manages to push fire , deflect , a milisecond one after another (parden the english) .
any ideas ?
it seems imposible to shoot rockets at those , rarely it wont deflect back to me ...

if you use fire first then blast air it also makes the range of the fire "blow" further.. shotty is the best way to sort out this no named pyro you have trouble with

Or you could just run the other way

As someone who loves playing Pyro, I'd just like to remove myself from people's suspicious minds as the mysterious "unnamed pyro".
I'm a Backburner user, as my talk button is on my mouse and I can barely work out to press the LMB and my talk button at different times, let alone throw the use of the RMB into the mix.

I think rarely it wont means it nearly always will deflect back to him.

indeed Thanatos , and none of the reply makers here are on my "black puro list "
and its not about who , its about "how" , and is that "legit" , since it gives quite an advantage .
indi - it may b that - yes

theres a script somewhere that does the blowback/fire thingy at the same time, i remember santa had it and went a bit mental with it
