It's funny how many people whine over that weapon like it's harder to get around compared to the Degreaser. Lack of Airblast ( probably it's biggest down fall ), the taunt makes it pretty obvious to back peddle away ( and funny enough, people still rush you when you taunt... Talk about failure unless your a spy going for a backstab ).

I mean... Come on!

DAMN YOU PLHOG! That freaking weapon is so OP, it makes W + M1 Pyros even more deadlier!

phlog is not op. it just takes no skill, a deggreser pyro takes skill becuse of airblast and weapon switching. the phlog encourages w + m1 playing, but then again if youre a w + m1 pyro then why not use the gas jockey set, which makes it so you have a minus 17.5 health stat versus half of the classes and 10% faster movement. so when using the gas jockey set only 2 classes can escape you, and also have faster wep switching, and the icing on the cake, you can still airblast, also you can still eqstingguish other players without a manmelter. so in short the phlog is far from op, and also that the gas jockey set is fantastic for w + m1 pyros and even regular pyros. also if you run up to a phlog pyro whose taunting, you deserve to die. spy is my main class, and i can say that i think pyro is a fair class, besides a pyros crits is a heavys damage point blank.

^ The Gas Jockey set requires a hat, which the community and Valve have agreed is bullshit for a set bonus. While it is a surprise to find a Pyro with the whole set, it's far from superior.
And FUCKING capitalize. You're posting at 3 in the morning, you have time!

If the Phlog is balanced I'm the fucking blue fairy, remove the 90% damage resistance and POOF all the problems are gone, you could stand right in front of a BB heavy then piss on his corpse! It also encourages lone wolf style play, making it damn near impossible to push a cart or cap a point, everyone just cares about their fucking K/D ratio and the damn score board.

Phlog aren't too OP.
You're still vulnerable to backstabs (obvious).
And after the Taunt, the Pyro only have like, 2 seconds (?) under Heavy's fire to get a kill and run like hell.

Also, why don't use the Stock Flamethrower?
It has no downside whatsoever.

Degreaser is a gold for those Pyros who likes to bully Med-Hev Shipping.

Who in the fuck has a spy follow them around so they don't have to fight a pyro?

Stop complaining. It's your fault for not running away when I taunt. You could all be out of range if you were smart enough to realize what's gonna happen when I'm done. Idiots. As for the Gas Jockey, I find that to be a useful item set. I can get those blasted Scouts who are usualy too fast. The 10% Bullet damage is a bitch, though. Natascha Heavies are a Gas Jockey's bane. So, please, don't get on Pyros just because you can't think well enough to find a strategy to kill them. There are ways, believe me.

And now they nerfed it.

I don't know if this will affect it much but I can already hear the whining.

I'm just wondering if all the people complaining about the pre-nerf phlog were around for the original release of the backburner...

and while they were still mucking about with its critzone. I recall it being really wide.

But yeah mostly the 225-health pyros running around. Boy howdy.
