Pyro: Difference between revisions

The '''Pyro''' is an anonymous individual in a flame retardant suit with an affinity for all things fire. They are an [[Classes#Offense|offense class]] who specializes in close range damage, ambush maneuvers and guarding their teams territory.

The Pyro’s primary weapon is usually a homemade incendiary weapon that ignites enemies and inflicts [[afterburn]], useful for [[Spy]] checking. Their secondary weapons are not as strict and are designed to combo into the primary weapon. From hitscan shotguns to projectile flare guns, switching between primary and secondary weapons can yield successful results.

Another one of the Pyro’s most useful tools at their disposal is the alternate fire [[compression blast]] (also known as air blast) in their primary weapons. The air blast allows Pyro to extinguish ignited team mates, push enemies away and reflect projectiles such as rockets, grenades and even throwable weapons such as the [[brick]].

Taking advantage of their ever present fire resistance, mitigating their close ranged weaknesses through careful play and quick thinking, and finding opportunities to exploit the enemies mistakes can make Pyro one of the most game changing classes any team can have.
