Best melee class

Ok, base and max might be the same, but in the heat of the melee battle, damage dealt WILL take effect, making the chances wary in the way I predicted
 
All are decent. All melee weapons have high crit chances. Spies are instant kills though from the back, I think you shouldn't be allowed to cloak or disguise in all melee, preferably neither.
 
My class of choice for melee only is soldier because it has a decent amount of health and can take a crit, has a decent firing speed, crits do insane amounts of damage and has a cool melee weapon :).
 
Demoman usually since it is my most played class I know when to strike and when to dodge an incoming attack.

But medic is also a very good melee class, I probably use the ubersaw more than the bottle.

So it looks like the pyro's fire axe wins according to threven's chart there. Which i would agree because he does has 175 health, has speed on the battlefield, and has good weapon speed also. And with the crit chance, he can kill everything in one hit except a heavy and maybe a soldier.
 
i think you can survive a regular sniper taunt as a soldier, not sure though, it is pretty weak. i know you surevive it as a heavy at full health.

but getting a taunt kill with the scout is almost impossible. it just takes forever.
