Whatever Valve do with matchmaking, either we copy them or keep things arbitrarily different. So it’s a good opportunity to change, right? I think most would agree it’s been less fun since the demo nerf; the game is all scouts now.

One night cup with experimental class limits?

Watch out, perma snipers are coming

Yeah…… this is the worst idea I’ve heard in a while

1 medic

I think you’re overrating snipers in all but the slowest games, but also note they would be less annoying if they were part of the optimal configuration.

They would help you win rather than help you lose. But I doubt they’re worth another soldier except in odd situations.

the more optimal choice here would be to make the scout limit to 1, and make the 2nd scout a perma offclasser

L_?

a 6 soldier mid fight will be such a clusterfuck

FAINT

the scouts purpose on mids and during the game is to deny soldiers jumping for your combo etc. Imagine that u have only one scout and he has by himself deny 3 jumping soldiers at once :D:D Even the best scouts cant do that, and imagine the rocket spam on mid fights and overall during the game it would be a fucking clusterfuck

This is horrible, 3 soldiers + demo who spam choke? You wont be able to push anywhere unless you have uber, and you will be forced immediately, on middle your med dies 100% of the time, there will be 3 soldiers counterjumping each other and the demo wont be able to do anything.

Replace one scout with PYRO :D :D :D

Just kidding. Scout is pretty powerful but I wouldn’t say it’s the entire game since it depends a lot on how the team plays. From the games I’ve watched pockets are still very strong with heals and while demo is worse than before some teams can still play democentric and get away with it. More importantly none of the alternatives to 2 scouts would be as fun, even a lolhl player like me can see that.

Maybe scout is OP on viaduct but that’s about it.
