Fuckdammit !
Now I will have to go quickly to spec and back to team instead of killing myself :p
Curious if suicide also grant this kill credit...
200HP as solly, one simple LICK of a non-crit flame and drains to half of your health...bah.

Removing the health bonus for the backburner...finally.
Never saw a point in adding health for a pyro that is designed to get enemies in the back with 100% guaranteed crits.
Would have been more logical to add the HP bonus for the assault pyros with normal flamethrower imo.

but the 50+ health does help when ur surrounded by enemies in their own spawn. This could effect my assault on part 1 of goldrush and distracting the red team.

its a sad day for pyros anywhere, on the plus side now the old flamethrower will be out more and it does have a better crit rate unless from behind obvoiclyand the air blast does come in handy

Pyros were tending to be imbalanced.
I can be objective as I sometimes also play as pyro and how surprisingly easy it is to get kills with it.
Waving with the flame with your eyes closed
This since they made the flame doing more damage + pyro-pack.

A big difference with the early days of TF2 regarding damage.
