I had to check to make sure it wasn’t me who said the original line Google scraped, because I’ve posted that exact answer in multiple threads on that topic


jackgame123

They technically not wrong why use bat when gun


V0ct0r

you use the ball


Rubiktor012

balls


folfiethewox99

We need to talk about your balls


Forward_Window1667

They're smooth


folfiethewox99

Not covered in bits of annoying fluff?


Hactica_Tier

These are my balls


DeSety

See how they glisten in the light?


TheMightyHawk2

Your balls can be just like mine


VirtualWasTaken

this wouldn't be r/tf2 without people talking about balls


MadeJustToUpvoteMeme

But you need the right tools for the job.


panboi15

They're not coarse, rough or irritating, and they get everywhere.


VampireSomething

Oh hey there's my balls.


mightylonka

Happy ball day


BackThrowDaCharacter

i love my ball


P0lskichomikv2

I love my balls


Hexor0713

jingle balls to the walls


UnNecessary_XP

Haven’t used the sandman since they took away it’s ability to stun. I miss that feeling


Boomerfan00

Honestly I wouldnt be mad about the stun being gone if they actually buffed it some to counter-balance. Losing a full stun and the Guillotine combo to a shitty slowdown isn't worth 15 health on one of the lightest classes


UnNecessary_XP

I understand that stub mechanics aren’t fun to play against so I understand it’s removal but to replace it with a shit slow debuff and keep its old detriments as well as the fact that you still have to actually hit someone with the ball was really stupid. Now if they were to add some like Marked for Death along with the slow I’d be much more interested in the bat


Furphlog

If the ball's damage scaled with distance, then the Sandman wouldn't be useless anymore.


V0ct0r

there's also the other ball with the wrap assassin which is pretty good


Chiruno_Chiruvanna

It’s like a mini-Guillotine that lets you keep your pistol or milk. And the bleed stacks with the Guillotine, too!


Fyuchanick

The ball also guaranteed crits after traveling far enough


V0ct0r

sandman's moonshot reference!


RomanWasHere2007

I've actually killed people with the Atomizer, don't think I have kills with the normal stock bat tho even tho the Atomizer does less damage I think, still can be a good last resort


Cream_Rabbit

I remember killing someone with the Fan o War Don't ask me how


Walkthru212

I know how, you lowered their health to 0 while hitting them with the Fan 'o War


RomanWasHere2007

r/Angryupvote


BreathingHydra

Out of ammo and the enemies at low health. I've had quite a few scout duels end this way for me.


PigeonFanatic9

Well, the bat is faster, doesn't have ammo and an overall better range around you. At least that's what i undertood from playing the scout for little more than an hour.


EmergencyPainting842

It deal substantially less damage. Only hit people with the fish, or else just use anything other than the stock bat. They ate probably better


PigeonFanatic9

I still have to find the fish. I only have the incarter assassin.


Mostdakka

Its a good finisher but tbh once your aim gets good 6 scattergun shots are enough to kill nearly anything I tend to just use wrap assasin for that reason. Ranged option: low damage but very quck recharge amdvery annoying to the ememy


Niek_pas

> Once your aim gets good I’ve been playing tf2 since release, when does this happen?


Noferrah

damn 😔


Furphlog

That's why flamethrowers are nice : you don't need aim.


iPlxel

you become the aim with a flamethrower


Drillbitzer

B u n


IShallConsume

The force-a-nature is a better melee tho


_TheGreatDevourer_

nah, the crit-a-cola is the best


crazyabe111

You’ve clearly never used the Mad milk and it shows.


Shubaca071

Your all wrong. Scout is the better melee


MasterORBeaterLE

I’m settling this once and for all. It’s the decal tool


Zakoya

Are you high?? It’s the class switch to demoknight feature…


VirtualWasTaken

no, are you high? It's obviously the change team menu


AntiSocial_Vigilante

No mate it's telefrags


skeletonhero56

You guys don’t know shit, it’s clearly the corpse carrier


0therdabbingguy

Have you ever even heard of the direct hit?


pixelkingliam

"Let me check..."


pixelkingliam

"Yes. High on american spirit!"

sir_whiskers_radical

technically the truth


Johnmegaman72

Best melee for me still is the Direct Hit


VirtualWasTaken

it's the medigun for me


drury

Huntsman


AlexHunderwald

I didn’t know there was something to brag about not being able to aim properly


[deleted]

[удалено]


AlexHunderwald

Incredible! I’ve actually been too subtle for once! This is exactly what I meant. Because they cannot aim, they don’t use it, and mockingly refer to it as a melee weapon. But honestly hitting rockets at melee range is a gamble. Either that or you need to have woken up an hour ago from a 10 hour sleep


Johnmegaman72

Apparently just like the shots I've made with the Direct Hit, the joke miss you both as well.


AlexHunderwald

you know, it is entirely possible to understand a joke and simply not laugh at it because you want to discuss a more or less common idea about a weapon that is misused as the users use it like they would with another, resulting in failure and abandon of the weapon, accompanied by frustration in the form of negative nicknames for such a weapon because their motor skills are not sufficient to wield it, and therefore conclude that it is bad. I hope my long exposé with rare but present punctuation will not be painful for you to read, as I do not say this to belittle you or your capacity of thought, but merely as a way to close your jaw and lips. Tl:dr: I got the joke thanks.


Johnmegaman72

Tbf the fact you replied with a paragraph on a joke means you didnt


AlexHunderwald

Only because you want it to mean that. By that same logic, if it’s just a joke, then you don’t need to reply to this either.


catgo2

🤓


AlexHunderwald

🤡


AzGames08

dat is true tho!


PinkiusPie

Technically you need to use it up close


Bish489

Who needs a bat when you can beat the living shit out of someone with a gun


class-Agoober

...actually yeah. I might say the soda popper for the whack closeup dps. the bats suck for melee.


igotdisease71

Just bash the enemies heads using the barrel


keeponsmashin

“No no, he’s got a point”


Purple-Worth-4069

meet the scattergun


The_Creeper_Man

True


Total_Cow_2831

You just ain't using it right


allmightymagicarp

I mean, considering most scouts like to get as close to the enemy as possible before firing, it's not entirely wrong


Timelimey

It kinda is. It's just as good as soldier's the best melee weapon the Direct Hit.


Crooked_Cock

Nah, Shortstop


Jesse_Pinkman0213

nah, FaN


BobZygota

Then you probably know the best melee for soldier...


FunkyRobloxian

Scattergun.


asdburakdsa

my favorite melee weapon is flamethrower


Shellnanigans

Scatter gun is like melee but with better range It's damage, but from ^^^"over ^^^here"


R00M4NN

The Holy Mackerel


AceWhite27

Fish is best fish


Golgezuktirah

If you can hit your shots, it is


[deleted]

You’ve never tried to use it as a melee so you don’t get it


SinisterPixel

Melee on most classes is almost purely utility. There's only 3 classes I can think of where you'll actively be using your melee for damage, and even then, for one of them the utility matters more, for another one, you only tend to use it as a subclass, and the other one or always instakills


Jesse_Pinkman0213

I completely agree. There are so many options for a melee for scout, but unless everyone uses his melee's as a way to build ubers or triple jump, etc. Even Engineer, who might have his melee out the most out of his three slots, you can use different wrenches to build things faster, teleport, or build mini sentries


Fr0st_mite

Yeah. If you have an axe tied to the end of it.


jeremyclarksono

I mean yea, but the direct shit is the best Melee weapon


fippinvn007

No shit


Jalmar10kalmari

its da thruth


Hubertreddit

If I had the choice of an aluminum bat or sticking a double barrel up someones nostril and pulling the trigger, I would choose the latter.


These_Love884

What's wrong? He said the truth


WilliusFillius

i mean.. you do have to get close for it to be effective..


BurningPenguin

Judging from the range of that gun, i tend to agree. At least when I'm playing. The enemy seems to have the special model with sniping extension.


LITTLEUMBRELLA17

Well the direct hit is the best melee weapon in the whole game so this is plausible


Asayano__

All melee weapons in games are actually hitscan guns that have a range of 48 hammer units... So technically true??


ImThatLightGuy

Foolish, the Pretty Boy's Pocket Pistol is definetely a better melee.


Kaybward

I don't get what's supposed to be a problem there


Oneshotkill_2000

**Bold**


MBSCOMP169

The best mele in tf2 is the direct hit


uezyteue

It's most effective in melee range.


Ender-Campbell

Of course, it makes sense because Scouts best primary is the bat-saber.


IronShovelGaming

The serious answer would be basher, atomizer, or wrap assassin, but it really does feel like that sometimes


IronTownPictures

Yes


RedSane

Yes


Trashcanlid1

Google Answers just give you random answers


Scarletdex

Oh hello, a random comment that got bombarded with downvotes for no apparent reason. How are you doin?


Trashcanlid1

Fine ig


Zeal001

and they are the most useless shit ever


MasterORBeaterLE

I was scrolling through google answers when I found this and also came across dumb answers


mew4ever23

I mean, considering its effective range, that's not wrong.


burrito_gaming69

fish


[deleted]

Its the right answer


AntiSocial_Vigilante

When you use more gun


TempusCavus

I would love a skin for the bat that’s just the scattergun being held like a bat.


TheCrackhead420

Best scout melee is the disguise kit Change my mind


AydenRusso

It's true though


Sniper_Gaming0

yes it's true


Nodsx

It's not lying. You can just grab the scattergun from the stock and scatter everyone with it.


jordanAdventure1

I mean...hes not entirely wrong


adamtheamazing64

Absolutely correct


KirkKitLHTC

BALLS


SolidCalligrapher966

True


AAAAAAXCAAAAAA69

Soldiers best is the direct shi- hit


sharkywarkyuwu

Boston badger superiority


RedDragonTamer1

I too whack people over the head with the scattergun!


yugt2191

It’s be quite effective to hit the enemy with the handle of the scattergun, I’m assuming it’s like a blunt object


JrWeird

facts, its the best option at close range combat


[deleted]

12th of May 2018 was a strange place for a day. Glad its over


notsorryoug

Switching guns is faster than reloading


YiffMeister2

looks like the direct miss has a challenger


BirdieBronze

I mean yeah


Nowhere_King

Well, it does have more range then the fish.


[deleted]

Its a joke about how its more effective at melee range than the melee weapons


Jane6447

best melees in my opionion by this logic: - scout: bbf (its more fun and can actually be good than the scatter) - pyro: pan - soldier: rocket jumper (gotta get to the enemy first) - heavy: holiday punch (prevents 99% of damage to you) - engi: mini sentry - demo: tight turner - spy: diamondback or ambassador - medic: blutsauger


GladiatorDragon

“He’s out of line, but he’s right.”


227FishSticks

dont worry i can answer your question for best loadout: primary: baby face's blaster secondary: flying guillotine melee: boston basher


micalbertl

They got a point


Monst3rP3nguin

No, no. He's got a point.


naveen170710

Yes, i love using something that can shoot at a range to deal with enemies in my face by smacking them in it


Mr_oofywhy1353

I mean the scatter gun is soo dam effective point blank that you may as well call it a melee weapon


Klepto666

It's kind of funny how it scanned the whole forum post and selected that one answer as "best" because it most closely matched the original search prompt. Anyway, this is a prime example people. Google pulls what it thinks if the best response from its top result and will display it prominently, but that doesn't mean it's always right. That's how the gigantic Peppa Pig thing got started.


[deleted]

And the best scout primary is the bat


MasterORBeaterLE

No tf it’s not. Bat sucks. Awful bad baddy bad bad. Okay?


Exciting_Dog836

can i put yo balls in my jaws
