The '''Mine Layer''' is an alternative secondary weapon for the Demoman. It appears similar to the [[Stickybomb Launcher]], except with a cylindrical magazine, a circular ejection port, and a large metal chassis with yellow warning paint on its side. The paint appears yellow regardless of which team the user is on. | The '''Mine Layer''' is an alternative secondary weapon for the Demoman.

Instead of the Stickybomb Launcher's manually detonated stickybombs, the Mine Layer fires proximity mines that take 0.7 seconds to become armed, and will explode after an additional 0.4 seconds when an enemy player, or its own wielder, exists within their detonation radius. This includes shooting mines at an enemy, whether or not the mines are in mid-air. Disguised enemy [[Spy|Spies]] do not detonate the mines. If shot [[water|underwater]], the mines will have significantly reduced velocity, but will explode as normal. The mines have the same damage and splash radius as regular stickybombs. The Mine Layer can also hold down its primary fire to charge, increasing the speed (and therefore distance) that mines can be shot at. This occurs 50% faster than the Stickybomb Launcher, reaching maximum charge in 2 seconds instead of 4. As a penalty, the weapon only holds | Instead of the Stickybomb Launcher's manually detonated stickybombs, the Mine Layer fires proximity mines that take 0.7 seconds to become armed, and will explode after an additional 0.4 seconds when an enemy player, or its own wielder, exists within their detonation radius.

The weapon's alternate fire does not detonate the mines, instead causing them to fizzle out without an explosion. If the user shoots a seventh mine when six are out, the oldest one placed will fizzle. If the user dies, all mines placed will fizzle. Unlike the Stickybomb Launcher's stickybombs, the user can see their own mines through solid walls. The mines have a flashing light and make a quiet beeping sound, warning enemies of their presence, and make a louder beeping sound when they are about to explode. An enemy can avoid a mine explosion by walking into its detonation radius, then walking away before it explodes. The explosion radius is 20% larger than the detonation radius. Mines shot at enemies will not stick to them, instead bouncing off and landing on the ground. | The weapon's alternate fire does not detonate the mines, instead causing them to fizzle out without an explosion.
