The 5 Most Rageworthy Ways to Die... an Ubercharged.net article

Lol, some were good, i dont agree with the others though :P
 
I agree with all of them but the backburner; now that the required skill of the pyro has gone from 0 to -12,041, I'd rather have to deal with an W+M1 pyro over a W+M2 pyro.
 
Huntsman spam is pretty bad, and random crits make me rage. But I think the worst is when you /see/ a spy coming, he's outrageously obvious and bad, he makes no attempt to remedy that he's been seen, THEN lands the facestab. If there's a kill more undeserved than this, I don't know what it is.
 
Facestab is the only one I agree with....especially when playing pyro and it's obvious spy...:cursing:
 
I like the #1, the Natascha makes me rage so hard, sometimes it'll get to the point where I die from it once or twice and I'll be ready to leave the server because of that. God I hate that weapon.
 
you cant just expect valve to nerf every single weapon in the game simply because its good against a certain class. The natascha is fine unlock with pros and cons which balance themselves out. Just because you get completely rallied by a player using a weapon that anyone else could use doesnt make it unfair. Basically, complaining is for the weak. Straight up.

I agree with 4,3 and 1...Number 4 is probably the most annoying to me...Nothing like randomly dying because your teammate spams rockets at a M2'ing pyro =P

Pretty funny stuff
 
Ohh, ya neither did I find that a problem, it was about 2X longer time.

Only time It was a problem was when the scout sat in the second line launching them over
 
I'm finding the current stun effect even worse than before. The stun/disorientation times are still the same, except now you can run around reeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllyyyyyy slowly before you still get inevitably killed unless you get lucky or the Scout has a particularly bad aim.

I liked the other stun better anyhow, especially since it lured in all the FaN Scouts right into your face, and if you happened to have a weapon selected that can do a Taunt Kill pretty fast... It's bye bye Scout. :P

Its not just good against one certain class, its death to almost all classes. As stated in the article, the only areas it is worse at then Sascha is against sentries (where slowdown doesn't matter) and against heavies with the Sascha, where slowdown doesn't matter much either. Other than that, it is an absolute 100% upgrade from Sascha, and Sascha is balanced as is, so if a weapon is more powerful than one than is balanced what is it? Unbalanced. The reason it causes so much rage is because once you're caught in it, unless you are within inches (literally inches) of cover, you are dead, no way to escape its grip on you. You are pretty much helpless. I think Natascha was fine before it got its massive buffs. If they were to make it so it actually pushes you back or slows down every other bullet or something like that, I think it would be balanced. If it pushed you back you could use that to help you escape (similar to how if you have enough health you can jump in the air a sentry will throw you out of its range), and if it was the other way around then something as fast as a scout could actually move more than a couple inches before crumpling over and dieing.

What you said is right. But we're not complaining here, we are aware of this. But come on, even though you know it, you still get angry about some kills, just because they're cheap, etc.
This, excluding the facestab..

The original sandman could be an exception, because there is no class that can counter it.

The problem with Natasha as i see it it's that it doesn't "slow" you down, you're not constantly under it's fire, some bullets hit and some others don't, which causes a Lag like effect that you don't know what's going on. Or maybe that's just me.

eh, I didn't really agree with the article. For me it's the most frustrating when I keep getting killed by the same sniper/spy even when I know exactly where they are :(
