I had a bonk scout once just activate his bonk and then taunt in front of my sentry. While it was focused on killing him, the rest of his team with Über came barreling around the corner and wrecked everything. He died, but saved his team from my sentry. Couldn't really be mad.
I met a player called "Bonk Man" on Two Fort the other day. He was decked out in all of the Bonk! Atomic Punch™ official merchandise. He just stood in spawn and drank Bonk!™ the entire time. It was pretty neat, makes me wanna drink some Bonk! Atomic Punch™.
Yeah. Its just that you lost so much for sacrificing useless invulnerability. Like a powerful support weapon Mad Milk, and Really good finishing tool, the Pistols.
I feel like with Bonk!, You should be allowed to use your melee. Your melee damage as a scout is pathetic, and most enemies can destroy you before you can take full advantage of your invincible melee rage.
I prefer using Bonk in Halloween maps. It makes flanking behind the enemy team to get their spells and use it against them way easier. It's fun to go behind and drop a meteor spell at the unaware team.
Dear Elmaxo, I cannot express my gratitude. This video was a gateway to Bonk Drinker's server, and led to some of the best moments I've ever had on Discord, from the beginning all the way to the server's downfall. Much love, ❤️
Man i don't even play TF2, yet somehow, for some reason, i find these videos of yours to be fascinating. Keep up the great work Edit: after a bunch of the people asking me to play TF2 i gave it a try on my old steam account. It ran pretty alright, but my old computer couldn't keep up in fire fights, that paired with me maning scout for the run and gun gameplay style lead to sometimes unplayable lag. However when my PC wasn't lagging so hard that you could see whatever god you worshiped on my moniter, it was a enjoyable game. However between the few Bots i ran into, constant FPS drops, and pub stomping demomans, and Soldigers disrespectung my entire heritage onr properly placed explosive at a time, i decided to drop the game until i have a better Computer....likely the steam deck. In short TF2 was fun, but a collection of givences made me drop it for the time being. Edit 2: as of November 15th 2022 I decided played tf2 for the first time on a descent rig. Getting the controller set up initially was… an experience and the game was extremely promising but as soon as I logged into my first lag free match I was met with a very very VERY slow paced game. I stick up the full duration of the match but upon it ending I was put in a match with a Sniper bot that just absolutely obliterated me. I attempted different strats like engineer sentry’s, stick traps, and good ol fashioned Scout running, but to no avail. This continued to happen for the next four matches to which I just said “I’ve had enough of this” and shut off the game. It’s really unfortunate because the mechanics seems incredibly fun but I had to meant to engage with them in a meaningful way. It’s pretty telling the most fun I had was building a sentry base as engineer because I was actually able to engage with class mechanics without having my head turned to paste. One day I will come back to the game, and that day will be when bots are removed. Do I want to play the game more? Absolutely, but I can’t play the game in its current state.

finally another bonk user, bonk needs more recognition for scout mains cuz it's so underrated. Sure it was BS when it first came out but it needs a bit of a buff.
Bonk is good for really good snipers (or bot bullying) and as I’ve discovered it’s really fun to meme with melee using the bonk to get point blank to normally horrifying enemies
Yea I would argue this is a bigger deal than getting behind. Getting into point blank while taking no damage makes scout a terror. Although the video at least somewhat referenced it by showing the b4nny clips.
I feel like you were too focused on using bonk to get into a fight and forgot how good it is to get you out of a fight. In situations where you know youre at a lost, you're cornered, you just heard that kritz med pop on the soldier, or that phlog pyro rapidly approaching you, using the bonk almost guarantees you a safe getaway. Its a tool that allows you to take more risks than usual as scout, as it basically gives you no consequences for whenever the deal goes south.
@@DuckieMcduck To be fair, in comp they ban things that are less skillful even if in theory stock is better. It’s banned because it can help you escape risky situations instead of dying, which reduces skill in the game. I do agree that it’s underrated, but I don’t think saying it’s banned in comp is going to mean anything as far as how most people play TF2.
@@GogiRegion You seem to express no concern to what skill even means in this context. Competitive games ban things when they break the game as people know it. Air sticky spam was always braindead compared to pills but you never saw it banned. Bonk adds more utility to Scout than what he is originally meant to do and lets him take more risks which makes not using it a no brainer if you're coordinating. It's nothing to do with skill, but with role and capability expectations that get shattered due to it and this impacts the whole game.
I love the bonk, highly underrated. My standard strat in 2nd Dustbowl is to bonk, surf off the inevitable level 3 at the first point, use that to get to the enemy teles. After I take down the teles I harass the spawners keeping them tied up. It is not unusual for 3 or 4 people to be chasing me in the back field. That gives a numbers advantage to my team at first point. If you think death matching is all this game is about, then you're playing it wrong.
"Then what?" After getting behind the enemy? Take out teleporters, harass flanks, lure newbs, spawn camp..... It's one of the most potent weapons scout has.
this video actually got me using bonk from the ~250 i've drank, i've noticed that i don't really use bonk to advance into enemy territory, but rather if i was in a poor situation, i could duck behind cover, take a sip of bonk, and get out. this great utility made me realize that bonk isn't as bad as people tend to say it is. rather, there is so much amazing competition for scout's secondary, that the bonk gets drowned out by the overall great utility of the pistol and pretty boy's pocket pistol, the mobility of the winger, & the pick potential of the guillotine and the crit-a-cola makes the bonk seem a little underwhelming in comparison. even if the video didn't make you try bonk, or if you did and failed, try using it as a get out of jail free card once in a while :) it's also pretty good for practicing your scattergun aim, because you don't have a pistol to fall back on, but this is also a note for the guillotine and crit-a-cola
"bonk is bad because sentries" , you left out the part where you can constantly drink bonk to keep the sentry firing at you to give your team time to destroy it. If anything i equip bonk TO kill sentries. Though this is entirely dependent on the number of braincells the rest of your team owns sort of like medic uber. If your team sees an enemy sentry being supressed and still wont shoot it theres not much you can do.
I did some (admittedly very rough) calculations to figure out just how long it would have taken for Bonk Man to sip that much bonk and came out with the ballpark figure of 14 hours of straight drinking/resupply/drinking again, at an average speed of 3 seconds per sip
Because this is the absolute maximum and he noticed the amount 19 hours later, it’s likely bonk drinker did literally nothing but drink bonk since he was given the challenge.
Seeing your videos coming out again has given me the kick I needed to get back into making content myself. Thanks man. Great video! And yeah, I agree, BONK is fun but still a low tier weapon. The Winger or PBPP’s is the go-to for me
Dang your videos are really high quality! I'm glad that while, unfortunately, TF2 isn't getting updates, it seems the TH-cam community behind it is steadily growing once again :]
As a scout who mains bonk i think its really fun to use it to go around sentrys and save yourself when your super low hp. The bonk is also a gimmick item so basically it will be less usefull then the for say mad milk but its a more fun tool to use. Same goes to heavy's holiday punch. It might be less usefull then the gru or fos, But its a fun weapon and really satisfying to use when you do.
i like that even tho tf2 has some bad weapons, you still can have success with every single one of them if you just try hard enough. like many weapons are considered "bad", but you still can use them and have success with them if you have enough skill.
There has been a surprising amount of times where I use bonk and think "I wouldn't have survived that if I didn't have bonk" And I think that makes bonk good enough.
I hadn't checked your content prior to hearing the praise about you on havfun, honestly I feel like an idiot for not watching you sooner. Good stuff, keep up the effort
I APPRECIATE bonk. I know it’s bad, but I appreciate it. It’s a very classic item in the game. It’s the go to drink in tf2 sfm’s, when you think about scouts secondaries it’s the most iconic.
I like using it with the babe faces blaster because the bonk helps avoid damage so you can keep your boost and the boost let’s you lose enemy gamers who chase you down or just return to your team
Oh funniest thing is i remember someone asking bonk drinker that and only just now do i find out that was you on the server, crazy Small World ain't it. Keep up the great work mate
3:06 just want to note here that because of tf2's source spaghetti you can negate the movement slow down simply by strafing. (This works for all classes btw)
I feel like the Bonk! Atomic punch can also be used as a Sentry distracter, you drink it, get on the shooting range, and let a teammate destroy the Sentry, it worked out for me pretty well even on solo queue.
I would also like to say that bonk can help take down sentry nests, as sentries will target you (the invincible one) while an explosive class (like a direct hit soldier) destroys it without harm.
This shows even the worst can be good or even better this what majority players would never understand in any genre of games and this video is refreshing
elmaxo i dont know if youll read this but ive been binge watching your videos, and rewatching them so much i love your voice i love your humour i love your editing your videos make me feel comfortable
1:58 lets not forget that it was also said bonk consists of ammonium chloride which can cause asthma. and that radioactive element is caesium 137 if i do remember correctly. which is an element created when nuclear fallout occurs. let that sink in.
Honestly the Bonk Atomic Punch is very situational but at the same time it's still good especially when you're working together with your time like distracting a sentry from the rest of your team, honestly all of Scout's secondaries are good
One interesting application of the bonk is with the baby face's blaster. The invincibility gives you an excellent tool for escaping difficult situations with your boost meter intact, and in turn the speed boost from the blaster lets you outrun almost everyone even with the maximum slow effect.
Late to the response here, but as a former highlander (9v9) scout, the Bonk has its uses but situationally. It’s mostly used off the initial gate opening in payload or on cp_steel. On payload maps you’d Bonk to get past the sentry and enemy team to get behind and kill the teleporter entrance, to make any kills you get in your first Uber push more impactful. However, often times spies will do that off the initial gate opening too, so it really depends if your team wants your spy to go for a med kill and you get the tele, or if your team wants the scout on cart and the spy to get the tele. On cp_steel, you just Bonk and stand in the way of the enemy Uber while you’re defending the B point. Sometimes you can delay the push through the A-E door or the B-C door a little, but that’s less impactful since teams generally don’t Uber through those.
One thing I will say Bonk is actually really useful for is redirecting sentry fire. A well placed sentry can absolutely shut down any push or forward movement your team has, so if you use the bonk and force the sentry to focus fire on you, you can take the heat off of your team and give them a chance to maneuver around the sentry/focus fire on it.

Local TF2ber knowingly fuels a teammate's addiction to a highly questionable substance.
4:03 You sound so uncomfortable saying the word anarchy
anaRchee
yea
Hey elmaxo, Great video. saw you in a couple games including parts of this video!
I APPRECIATE bonk. I know it’s bad, but I appreciate it. It’s a very classic item in the game. It’s the go to drink in tf2 sfm’s, when you think about scouts secondaries it’s the most iconic.
I like using it with the babe faces blaster because the bonk helps avoid damage so you can keep your boost and the boost let’s you lose enemy gamers who chase you down or just return to your team
Damn your video quailty is amazing and you edit fast
really entertaining keep it up!
Oh funniest thing is i remember someone asking bonk drinker that and only just now do i find out that was you on the server, crazy Small World ain't it. Keep up the great work mate
3:06 just want to note here that because of tf2's source spaghetti you can negate the movement slow down simply by strafing. (This works for all classes btw)
It's fun! I think of Jerma's spy scout hybrid video with the backscatter when I think of Bonk.
Hey man, Leb here, met you in a hightower server today. Great content, thanks for the signed spy cicle!
Bonk Drinker deserves a community sparkle bonk
thats what im saying
I feel like the Bonk! Atomic punch can also be used as a Sentry distracter, you drink it, get on the shooting range, and let a teammate destroy the Sentry, it worked out for me pretty well even on solo queue.
played with you on dustbowl the other day, didnt believe this shit was real. god damn dude nice. Cheers, Nug-ghoul
The real mystery is...
HOW THE FUCK DID HE CHUG 17,553 BONKS IN 19 HOURS?!?!?!
HOW DID HE NOT ROCKET TO THE MOON AND EXPLODINATE BY 500?!?!?!?
I would also like to say that bonk can help take down sentry nests, as sentries will target you (the invincible one) while an explosive class (like a direct hit soldier) destroys it without harm.
This shows even the worst can be good or even better
this what majority players would never understand in any genre of games
and this video is refreshing
Congrats on 1 million channel views!
Nice video ! Keep up the great work dude!
This is probably a good guide on how to play Splatoon 3's Undercover Brella.
elmaxo i dont know if youll read this but ive been binge watching your videos, and rewatching them so much
i love your voice i love your humour i love your editing
your videos make me feel comfortable
I am very glad to hear that, makes my day when I hear comments like that
1:58 lets not forget that it was also said bonk consists of ammonium chloride which can cause asthma. and that radioactive element is caesium 137 if i do remember correctly. which is an element created when nuclear fallout occurs. let that sink in.
Mad Respect for the Drinker of Bonk himself, actual legend
Honestly the Bonk Atomic Punch is very situational but at the same time it's still good especially when you're working together with your time like distracting a sentry from the rest of your team, honestly all of Scout's secondaries are good
One interesting application of the bonk is with the baby face's blaster. The invincibility gives you an excellent tool for escaping difficult situations with your boost meter intact, and in turn the speed boost from the blaster lets you outrun almost everyone even with the maximum slow effect.
Late to the response here, but as a former highlander (9v9) scout, the Bonk has its uses but situationally. It’s mostly used off the initial gate opening in payload or on cp_steel.
On payload maps you’d Bonk to get past the sentry and enemy team to get behind and kill the teleporter entrance, to make any kills you get in your first Uber push more impactful. However, often times spies will do that off the initial gate opening too, so it really depends if your team wants your spy to go for a med kill and you get the tele, or if your team wants the scout on cart and the spy to get the tele.
On cp_steel, you just Bonk and stand in the way of the enemy Uber while you’re defending the B point. Sometimes you can delay the push through the A-E door or the B-C door a little, but that’s less impactful since teams generally don’t Uber through those.
If only I could have that level of dedication. Also bros bonk is probably at like 50k now...
One thing that you didn't mention is that it can be used to distract the enemy team, allowing your team to capture the objective.
Nice vid lad
One thing I will say Bonk is actually really useful for is redirecting sentry fire. A well placed sentry can absolutely shut down any push or forward movement your team has, so if you use the bonk and force the sentry to focus fire on you, you can take the heat off of your team and give them a chance to maneuver around the sentry/focus fire on it.
Bonk drinker is a level 100 drinker. Crit drinker is a level -100 drinker
This man should get "Ultra bonk! Atomic blast!", it just gives him invulnerability until he somehow dies, but only allowed to use bats.
