Eh, it's stupid, but it is fun to have something you are winning at:

If only I would use the uber when people said "NOW" instead of being stabbed or one shotted by a stray pipe or rocket...

Pro-Tip for medics, don't wait for your target to ask, assess the situation and uber when you feel the time is necessary, this goes double for the kritz. If Im healing a demo or soldier and I see 3 - 4 people round the corner, I pop it, I don't even ask.

Oh for the love of god! THIS!
Don't know how many times I died because the medic, though clearly aware of the soldier, pyros, stickies and snipers infront of us, persisted me to march on through and rely on his dulled sense of danger to activate his charge.
I went and bound "activate charge" to q last night just encase I come across those situations again.

eh.. i do this more than I like, but I also think I have a very good eye for the correct timing, so I don't pop early... I think my properly timed game changing ubers make up for the times I leave my tank to die
though it is nice to have someone say hit it... mostly because they actually know its coming - nothing worse than a properly timed uber followed by the guy going uhhhh.....wut? i have no ammo and where do I go? (obviously doesnt apply to the mojority of people who read this haha)

I agree, you have decent uber timing, and you are certainly better than myself with the bonesaw/ubersaw.
Your last point is so true. There is an absolute famine of eligible kritz targets. Eyelander demoman? Direct Hit Solly? Even with our pyros, the chance of getting a crit reflect kill are fairly low.
I continue to have soldiers get upset with me for not Kritizing them when they have the direct hit. I have yet to see any solider with the direct hit get more than one kill while being krtized. It just doesnât work, end of story.
I get that it is fun to play with new weapons, or to play a class that suddenly has gained relevance, but the majority of players are too busy trying to get kills to focus on actually winning maps.
I can think of two demoman who are truly scary with the Eyelander. Stickies and Pipes are still the highest DPS producing combination in the game. Nothing has changed when it comes to that respect. When you use the Targe, have you noticed how you are getting creamed by snipers? When Liquid, Gekko, and Cbre88x see you Targe in a straight line you might as well be standing still with a flashing arrow on your head. It is incredibly easy for a good sniper to farm you.
If you play solider all the time, look at the people who are best at that class on the server. Do you see them using them direct hit? I donât.Â
Iâm not giving just baseless complaining; I am just tired of being part of teams that ragequit and fall apart because they are full of direct hit soldiers and Eyelander Demoman.
