| hadouken is definitely hilarious, once had a medic charge me with a saw and i killed him with the taunt
The +50hp is what pushes the backburner for me over the compressed air. Compressed air can't stop scout or sniper rounds or heavies or turrets for that matter. And that's the big thing on both offense and defense, especially in maps like Dustbowl. There are too many nades and rockets flying everywhere to make the compressed air of any use and the +50hp is just too important when you have to take out a turret before it gets upgraded or if you need to take out a heavy about to shoot you.
I can see the air being key in open maps like 2fort or well where fire isn't as concentrated into chokepoints, but if you're a Dustbowler like me, then backburner is absolutely $.
I feel bad for spies that get snuck up from behind with a backburner. It wasn't fair to begin with, but now its just sad. |
