10:25 this has to be the best clip supporting your point about the element of suprise when using the shotgun. The Pyro was like "hehehe I fucking got you now, what're you gonna do shoot m- OH SHIT"
Finally, someone who gets it I always run shotgun secondaries on soldier usually it’s between panic attack or stock but I think stock always comes out on top
I was actually playing doom 3 when this video was in the background, so i was pretty surprised about the intro music. But of was fitting for the action tho...
@BigManStrange unironically Shotgun heavy (they use both machine gun and shotgun, not to be mistaken as Fat Scout) is like the final form of a heavy main. Not to say that a Food item is good, but if you know the map or have a good med... Then Shotgun heavy is a force beyond recognition.
The gunboats are widely used "just because", while on certain maps they're rather useless. The shotgun is amazing cause it's simply reliable. Sometimes though the shotgun isn't the best idea, for instance, a roamer or anyone using the beggar's bazooka it'll just be suicide. Adaptibility is key. Great video btw! very underrated.
gunboats are always useful, even on maps like dustbowl you can just like, make it impossible for players to space you and punish who are overextended faster
the gunboats is soldier’s best secondary without a doubt unless you dont know how to rocket jump. utilizing soldier’s best aspect by allowing yourself to rocket jump around x4 more than with shotty makes it op
Also, shotgun gives you some valuable breakpoints, particularly with Engineer's buildings. I'll combo Engi buildings all the time, waiting for my rocket to land on it before blasting it with my 12-gauge. Very effective against mini sentries or buildings getting tanked.
That intro clip with the kritzkrieg, that's the reason I went back to the shotgun from using banners. Swapping from conchBox to a basically stock loadout allowed me and my brother to carry a whole attack/defend match. From there I started mixing it up a little with different primaries when playing solo; the Black Box returned to prominence as my go-to but I've also rekindled my love for the Cow Mangler.
i sometimes run rocket jumper with the panic attack and it's a lotta fun since it's the easiest way to close the distance with a shotgun. the downside is losing to sentries harder than scout but it's a small price to pay to use rocket jumper without epic failing at market gardens
Love your vid. It gives so much 2012 tf2 animation which i adore, and all references (a specially Broly one). And are good but rough quality. It's just the best
This video is genuinly amazing i was so absolutely blown away that your not a bigger channel just everything had so much talent put into it to the animation to the jokes some of these jokes are so crazy good. Good stuff man
When starting out on TF2, I used to main Soldier, and I never ever used the gunboats; I refused, and I always used the panic attack as my secondary because I just didn’t see the need for the gunboats
Hey! I really like your video explain how the shotgun is a great secondary in your video! I really like the long intro at the start. It is really impressive! You also go into great points on how to use the shotgun on some classes, which is really good and it taught me something too. Overall, keep up the great animations and the TF2 videos!
haha this video is insane because ive been wanting to make a video about why the shotgun is the worst soldier secondary (and then explaining how to make it work in a 6s setting) for ages now. i think seeing this video has motivated me to make it sooner rather than later. (not out of spite or hate or anything, the shotgun is actually one of my favourite weapons in the whole game lol)
The same case is with pistol for Emgineer. Because of how popular wrangler is even on offensive engineer peoples simply dont expect you to pull off pistol and gun them down good ol' texan way
Great video! Even with my 6th grade English I understood everything thanks to the pictures. You are filled with determination to use the shotgun. Translated with the help of a translator.
I started using the shotgun 2 days ago, I saw that it worked pretty well against most classes and it changes the gameplay a bit for the Soldier who is only used to shooting missiles, I have 200 hours of play and I honestly love the game, I don't play much with the Soldier, but since I discovered that I really like playing with him, and today TH-cam recommended this video to me.

The shotgun on soldier is really good, mainly if you want to play more independently, it allows you to have better uptime in fights which 4 rockets might not be enough. Although for frontlining the banners are so much better, since sometimes you gotta be the anchor for your team to be able to make a play. If your team is very self suficient then the shotgun is just an upgrade to you, if they aren't it starts feeling a bit useless. Personally, I run a Liberty Launcher + Panick attack combo, which can deal with most classes in a decent way, it's nowhere close to be meta but it's fun, and it shows how strong the shotgun is when it covers the weaknesses of the Liberty Launcher really well and whenever that feels like it's not working I just switch to stock with one of the banners, the gunboats always seemed really overrated to me when there is teleporters or medics in your team, only exceptions are if you are playing with the Beggar's Bazooka or there's no support classes in your team
I find it funny almost no soldiers use a shotgun despite it being a really good secondary then get mad when their reflectable projectiles get reflected when they have a solution which works better against a pyro than faster rockets
Sleeping on the shotgun vs good scout matchup, if they have good enough movement to dodge all of your rockets you better pull out the shotty. Do it right after your first rocket and you’ll catch them off guard
My play style with soldier is most offensive, and I'm usually left with one enemy left with no rockets loaded. The shotgun is just more useful to me instead of the banners and gunboats. Especially with the reserve shooter and panic attack.
Personally im reserve shooter gang. It's almost like a minigame or quicktime event where i gotta shoot my rocket to bounce them up and instead of the obvious shoot another rocket i get the shotgun airshot, so its a double QTE. I love the higher potential damage output, plus it shows me how much more i really need to improve. also reserve shooter ends up being even more unexpected than stock. also also the quicker swap speed makes dealing with pyros that look like they really want to airblast that much more easier to deal with. they get so caught up in weapon switching to counter my weapons that i can get 2 good rockets in and kill them
What I can give props to the reserve shooter for is its uniqueness. But it’s only primary use is for comboing, and I can just do that with the stock shotgun at the not so bad downside of losing mini crits
Problem is, when I don’t feel like using gunboats, it’s really hard not to use banners. Like, Batallions pop is “win me a game” button sometimes, and 20 additional HP helps hilariously often.
The battalions is really good. I recommend it for when either team composition is not the best. If thats not the case and your team can do fine on their own, you can use the shotgun.
If my current like... 100 hourse or more in Pyro, i see the intro a little bit unrealistic, the Pyro would probably fail the timing of the airblast The rest is spot on i guess
I also like the shogun on pyro rather than some flare gun. If you are 1v1'ing another pyro you can just win the fight by grabbing the shotgun and playing it smart.
as someone who heartily believes that there is no general purpose secondary even close to the gunboats (not even bats, fight me) i can definitely sympathise with your point of view here, especially what you said about the shotgun being situationally better on certain maps. i like to call these maps “waddle maps” because there’s no real reason to rocket jump most of the time. think steel, dustbowl. in these maps i see no reason to use the gunboats, and because teamwork is a lie i think the shotguns carve a very strong niche there
i love the shotgun so much. another soldier once shit talked me for pulling out the shotgun and i have no shame because it is one of my fav weapons in the entire game.
I feel like the reserve shooter is slightly better at most situation you mentioned. And it is great at thoose overconfident soldiers that always jump at your face
I play a lot of heavy I don't mind playing a tankier and sluggier version of soldier since I use banners a lot and do try to manage more my rocket jumps, I know there is the shotgun but I like the more suportive aspects to characters so banners it is! But I can understand why people would trade more gun for more mobility. I mean there's a reason why people avoid playing heavy and medic, they don't have cool movesets. They actually have to think where to move to and from without dying. That being said it has to be soldiers AND pyros who use the shotgun most, while pyros use it like half of the time you ever see one since they're already a short ranged class. But I've fought a suficient ammount of soldiers who will punish you for being to aggresive or for not paying atention and will pull a shotgun on you, they're no joke, respecc the soldiers with shotguns... who do kill you :D cuz most ain't used having to aim LMAO. Also I love how heavies strike fear into this soldier main, they're not to be joked around, but don't be too afraid, most heavies have like, the worst tunnel vision in the world, just rocket jump behind them and they'll never notice you, free easy kill since they'll take a while to turn back... even decent players just suck at turning back with heavy ._. it's a tip I give you because they might have hours on the game, and not on the big guy and just play him HORRIBLY and try to frontline all the time, it's like the most basic concepts of playing not feeling good and dissapearing of their brains....
3:24 i wouldn't consider the shotgun to be the best go-to stock, i mean every heavy uses the sandvich or banana the engineers got great side grades like the widowmaker, rescue ranger or frontier justice and the pyro has flare gun, scorch shot and i guess the detonator?
Forgot the Almighty crossbow which makes medic actually bearable to play Scout has soda popper, pyro has degreaser and dragons fury, demo has iron bomber
in all honesty a skill issue, if youre good having your gunboats replaced by a slightly worse secondary while still having a very solid rocket launcher should be fine
I tend to run a weird trollier build with the jumper, stock shotgun and escape plan. its more reliable than you would expect and im not even good at soldier

Most people don't rocket jump enough for boots to matter, so you may want to equip a banner instead. Or just a reliable shotgun.
