- Some guy starts getting spooked and startled by a slender figure in a slick suit, seriously strategizing the thing like it was a serious court case and not a serial killer.
Time Stamps:
0:00 Intro
0:46 Game Mode Basics
2:33 Heavy
3:55 Pyro
4:50 Soldier
6:05 Engineer
7:50 Medic
9:45 Demo
10:40 Sniper
12:20 Scout
14:40 Spy
16:00 Outro
Server IPs:
BlackWonder Slender Fortress; Usually Empty so good if you have friends
172.96.160.170:27255
Disc.FF Slender Server; Usually filled with cringe Disc.ff donators but aside from that a solid place
74.91.113.50:27019
Glubabble's Slender Server; Different verison of Slender Fortress with a odd amount of people on it usually
188.165.207.20:27015
Kinda hard to say for certain what stats are due to how many versions of the game mode exist and how hard it is to see the differences. Stuff like Heavy and Soldier's static resistance does exist however the exact number has without a doubt changed since the game mode was last updated and sadly most guides or talks about the game go over Glubabbles version which is completely different than Disc.FF's or the standard version of Slender Fortress, as a result, some stats are partially off and are mores guessed.
In addition, some mechanics of the game mode aren't fully understood, primarily detection and sound, depending on the class you make a sound and if the boss is in the radius of that sound, they investigate it, if you get in their field of view (for too long or at all depends on the boss) they chase you. But how loud are the sounds? What is the radius? Does the priority of a class play a part in detection too? For example, if a Medic and a Spy make the same sound, and the boss detects both, do they go to the Medic over the Spy?
Stuff like that makes this tier list hard to formulate.
Congrats if you've read this far, by the way, Happy Halloween and all that, thinking about opening a Discord server up soon and perhaps a TF2 server too but we'll see by the end of October if I do either or. Forgot what the next video will be, perhaps another Trading Treasure to span the time out. - เกม

I'm not normally the kinda guy to say "like, share and sub"
But I'm quite surprised on how poor this video is doing compared to others on the channel, like horrendously going down, 45% worse.
Trend I noticed with the past few videos which haven't even surpassed 20k views but I'm really hoping this particular video gets enough views since I A. Put a decent amount of effort and time in it and B. It's based around a community gamemode that I feel needs to get more attention.
I'll do more tier list videos like this in the future, primarily with Zombie Escape and a brand new community game mode when it's actually open for the public.
To be fair its midnight in alot of places right now so maybe give it time
I'm gonna call it here
Zombie escape huntsman is going to be hight tier (unless huntsman explosions are disabled)
:( sad youtube algorithm moment
you shouldn't be surprised. how many people, in your estimation, have even heard of slender fortress?
Maybe since people don’t know what it is they don’t bother clicking on it
This is the one alternate community gamemode I've never played before. Definitely gonna try it out now, thanks CosmosGentlemanNetworked.

This would be the second community gamemode that I've learned about through spaceguy. cool and good video

You must be new to tf2
i really appreciate you adding a "recommended loadouts" list... a lot better than having to ask after the round started and getting told to not use the bushwacka.....while i already have it equipped
Honestly i think it's fun learning the hard way sometimes.
There is, in the card at the start of every class.
Creator of Slender Fortress Modified (The version Disc-FF uses) here, we always ranked classes after each beta version of 1.7.0 every time I either nerf or buff specific classes, and there are quite a number of hidden stats that I never mentioned in even the help menu since it is a beta build and I barely updated the localization part. Its weird since another community I work with which is where I am most of the time, which is District Zen, they ranked all 9 classes differently. It does make me happy people are still passionate about this gamemode.
I gotta say district zen is way more better than all sf2 Server (original was better to

@@haterIV thanks
I know I like to put the server on blast due to specific players, but I couldn't be happier knowing your server is getting consistent crowds of players every day. Really shows the effort you put in and the freedom Fire gives you to do what you believe is best for it. While not a part of the Slender Admin Team (and I'm sorry, ol' boy, but I have no interest outside of Murder, lol), I'm more than satisfied with the team currently in place as well.
I hope you're just as happy people are as passionate today as they were when this video was made and before. You did a damn good job, fam.
Yes!, I used to sweat all the time on slender fortress in 2016, getting back into it with this video, appreciate it
I looked into the code of the gamemode, the Powerjack DOES increase speed for Pyro.
Enjoyable and informative I always tend to like your tierlist videos for these community game modes as I know now that picking pyro seems to just be terrible everywhere, thanks for the helpful tierlists and bits of advice for these new game modes
Hi other patreon member
Hello o/
Pyro is pretty good in Zombie Escape and Smash Fortress
Slender Fortress? This takes me back to 2013-2015! I used to frequent Glubbable's sever and it's one of the best example of TF2's modding ever
I'm a little sad that Glubbable has left TF2, and is very unlikely to ever return in anyway to tf2
@@delimiter2886 why'd Glubbable leave?
Feels good to see such a niche custom gamemode get attention by being covered.
Finally, i thought TH-camrs literally forgot about slender fortress, good one Mr!
Well constructed and formatted as always. You put a nice creative flair on these videos such as the SFM shots for each class. I really enjoy your tier list videos and I hope you make more in the future! Shame this one isn't performing as well.
Doing better now, I judge videos by reach so as long as it gets more views than I have subs I consider it a success.
@@SpaceGuyOnline Glad it’s getting the attention it deserves. Good luck with your future videos! I look forward to what you have in store for the future!
Isn’t there a fourth type of boss called the Hit and Run? They’re the hardest of them all and get progressively faster in a chase along with obliterating entire groups in an instant, forcing people to go alone.
There's technically like 16 boss types but they all are more or less the same, they spot you and they chase you, for time constraints it's easier to just group them all together since they're all functionally the same.
Hit and Run bosses are not that difficult to outrun, you just gotta have quick reaction time and run away before they even initiate the chase sequence. You just gotta not look at them lol
There are 5 tipes of bosses 1 is static, 2 is stature 3 chasers 4 is hit and run and 5 is charger
Which can not be stunned by anything at all.
Just saw your video on my server. Nice video and yes there are a lot of cringe donators. One thing I was talking about with my admins recently was improving some of the lesser used classes so things might change in future updates.
TH-cam during the day: nothing
TH-cam while trying to sleep: ever heard of entertainment
This has to do with the way our humor and toleration increases the more tired we get. _The more you know_
Before the GRU nerf, heavy GRU used to “dominate” slender. I mean heavy can stay sanity the longest and have high hp.
Yes I use to tryhard slender, because I’m poor and scared to play other scary game.
p/s: demo sprint longer when he get scared. He can even out run scout because of the longer meter. But scout sprint is universal, so I won’t say he outclass scout
Maybe a Monster tier list based on how difficult it is to beat them?
I don't think that's necessary when there's a whole butt-ton of bosses in this mode
@@jukebox581 Yeah I realize that now. I was uninformed.
I think he should do them based on their thickness
The scariest thing about this gamemode is how long it takes to download all a servers content
Love the work that you put into your videos, keep them up!
Another great video, keep up the good work!
Looking back at these multiple year old videos it is so funny that you sound exactly the same as you do in recent videos
I think that some community gamemodes are pretty underrated, i remember watching slender fortress since 2016 and getting scared all the time, but people dont mind much those alternative gamemodes nowadays, maybe because they are mostly difficult to understand or play. But lets be honest this videos are one of the most unique in the entire community of tf2, keep it up the good content man!
Well holy shit, my friends are gonna be surprised by this one! That's the server I regularly go to and I know a couple of them in the video! Glad you came on by, hope you had fun!
heavy is for being a wall for non-instant kills
sniper is for staring into the enemy's eyes
demo and scout are for running away
spy is for "stealth is optional"
This is my first time hearing about this game mode and I'm excited to try it out soon. Thanks!
I remember playing this game mode as a kid, finally we have a tier list
Demoman should have the highest priority level. You know why.
I'd argue he should have the lowest!
You know why.
You're all wrong. You know why.
Its because he's black, and in a horror movie situation.
@@dr.pastor does this put him on highest or lowest tho
@@datbanan2717 highest??
Black people get killed first in horror movies, like every time.
Highest priority
Never realized there were differences between the classes. Cool SFM pics too.
Yeah! We’re no longer unusable, just average in terms of effectiveness and wildly outclassed by most other options! epic win for us pyro mains.
Well Done keep the vids my dude you doing amazing
A goofy little strat is too equip charge n targe for resistance and the caber to get out of corners or get high up
Great video, my friend. I'm from Peru and I fondly remember playing this game mode (SF2). I was only 14 years old when I played it, and I spoke little English at that time, but I tried to communicate with different people on the servers. Watching your video made me nostalgic, but most importantly, I learned many things I didn't know, like the advantages each class has and so on. I'll go check if there's still any server active or not. Good luck with your next videos, take care!
If I can change something in this tier list is that I would put demo in S tier and soldier in A because disciplinary action can increase speed pretty decently but the escape plan is amazing for all bosses that can't insta kill and his speed while low is faster when damaged and lower than 40 health can make him faster than demo and even scout
Edit: i think a new update happened which makes heavy with the GRU not be reduced to 100 but 270 with mini crit vulnerability which still is very durable and he is as fast as pyro so basically he is better than engineer and pyro
now i really wanna play the gamemode, thanks for all the info.
Hold the fuck up, one of the bosses is an *ARCHVILE?!*
**loads super shotgun**
Sam you use a super shotgun and not a katana?
engineer has a brighter flashlight too
Do cosmetics like The Second Opinion with built in automatic voice lines make bosses spot you easier?
bro heavy should at least be able to equip lunchbox item. or just be able to fight back
it would be to op
I recently started getting back into Glubbables server. Very nostalgic, I remember being 10 in 2014 and just having the greatest time being jumpscared in TF2 lmao.
oh shit i played in a game with you and didn’t realize you made videos, you were really good at sniper lol
Great video, it's really nice to see people still care about Slender Fortress in general. The points in the video seem pretty solid, although I want to make one honourable mention for the Soldier loadout.
For Soldier, you can equip the MG (if you have one) for bosses that has a low base stun HP or is killable after a couple hits. You can crit them by jumping and timing your melee swings right, just like how you would do against real players in a match.
However, this makes it really risky since not only are you sacrificing your stamina to run away, you are also providing a greater chance for the boss to catch up to you. Meaning that if you mess up the timing on your swings, you're as good as dead.
Bosses like Reapers, Cazador, Kuszo, and Manduco Companions are great examples of killable bosses. Monsoon is the general exception since he's not killable, but can still be crit stunned. So as long as you have the timing, you can pretty much stun him over and over till you run out of stamina.
And of course, it's only situational. So you might be better off with EP or DA if you're not great at timing your swings.
Also, if you equip the Atomizer for the Scout and then spam your weapon taunt after the black screen fades away, you get some pretty funny results. This works with Boston Basher as well
Neat! I never knew this even existed! Sounds cool.
The flashlight infuriates me to no end. It just spawns a light source on the thing you're looking at, meaning either you can't see what's close or you have to looks straight at the floor to see
What would be harder than gru heavy is eviction notice heavy as there isn’t enough speed as the gru
Pro tip:if you are playing medic you can use the auto-medic call so you can see anyone who took damage so you know where is the monster,hunter
I accidentally clicked on this and when I saw the first 2 seconds of the intro, I just sat bewildered at what in the hell I just saw. I now feel obligated to watch this video.
Thanks for the masked man music at the end
More youtubers need to make transition images like you do. It makes the video better.
i dont comment very often but yknow what
after watching this and your VSH tier list you've inspired me to reinstall the game once more.
TF2 is truly eternal
Some maps in this game mode allow you to taunt with the Amputator, letting heal people
It's sad.
Classles update.
All classes have same health and stats :((
Idk why they did that since it removes the core concept of TF2, the classes, now this game is more slender than Fortress.
Super cool video!
if you want other community gamemodes to make a tier list of, check out either engineer fortress or zombie run, engineer fortress is basically where you play against a bunch of engie bots (most times) on red and have to destroy sentries and cap points. For zombie run it's basically where you run around a map, hold a spot for a few minutes against real human player zombies, move onto the next one, repeat, and probably fight a boss
the list is finally here
6:08 engi soon realized that he shouldn't be looking straight at SCP-096 in the eye, and then engineer died because of SCP-096 lmao
The not just the eyes but the whole face
@@dravengarcia8658 he'd be looking at the face too so...
@@Tower_Swagman I just wanted to sounds smart
I've played on that server literally on almost every night last month (only stopping for Scream Fortress), I recognize almost everyone in the video lol. It sucks that I missed this party though. :(
Although, I MIGHT have seen you online on the server before.
It would be cool if engineer retained the ability to build something useful, like some sort of noise beacon that could distract mosters by mimicing human voicelines or a spinning light that looks like a flashlight from a distance, but the beacon could be destroyed by only a little damage. Even a non functioning dispenser that would serve as a barricade would be better than his small advantage he has now. Also it would be cool if sniper's jarate could either apply a boomer bile like effect to monsters, hampering their visibility for a short duration or if the jarate gave them an outline that was visible through walls to warn nearby teammates. If scout weren't so good already I'd say give him mad milk and make it have a temporary slowdown effect on monsters, though maybe pyro could be given this ability instead with the gas passer to buff him a little.
I have been waiting for this for well not years but might as well say its been for the joke
ngl for the longest time thought this was just a ranking on how skinny the tf2 characters where. glad i clicked out of curiosity.
I thought the video was about how slender each of the mercs are lol. Tier list would still hold up then.
Damn. Found out hoovydundy is in there. Imma play it.
0:33 that shit is annoying to deal with. even if you killbind before being teleported it respawns you. its bad enough when engis build sentries in spots nearby or demos putting down a shit ton of stickies. spells should be disabled during the wheel being spun. Also have sentries ammo be removed if the wheel teleports players (carnival of carnage is one of the few maps that does).
This is one of my fave game mode. Glad it gets some attention it deserve
Also i love how father and son are the s tiers in here
For Heavy, I think this should be noted if you can use this weapon in the gamemode, but using the Fists of Steel is bound to even hurt you more because that means Heavy would take even more damage against bosses with melee attacks. I havent played the gamemode, but it seems like most, if not all bosses, deal with melee based attacks or attacks from static damage, none of which classify as “bullet” damage.
0:14 The morbin’ month
I used to play this gamemode, Medic & Friends server or smth, didn't have to wait 6 years, good ol' times.
I had a feeling you’d make this after your saxton hale one
Childhood right here, Played this gamemode over Years
Aha, like the halloween intro ;)
This sounds like something I can behind. Thanks mate
idk why i havent tried this gamemode earlier! it still has a player base and a few servers online so im gonna try it out!
I’d say you should do stop that tank giants next but the only semi active server without bots constantly shuts down and turns back on for a little while and goes back down. You could do the classes too but I’m not sure how many changes there are to each one
We did it pyros
We aren't the worst
Ayyy disc ff, I love those servers
I didn't even know classes were any different! I thought they were all the same besides the speed differences!
Will there be a tier list about the bosses of slender fortress or are there too many of them?
I didn't know this was a thing until now
I always thought that all classes were the same in this gamemode.
Huh.. Interesting
Pyro should get longer in between blinking times because of his mask
Heavy isn’t fat, he just has big muscles

Make you strong!
I actually had no idea each class have their own stats in SF2
Yo was that Avatar beat? Sweet, another OFF fan
OFF is an old masterpiece
Omg you didn’t need to make go through memory lane like that, man 😭😭😭
Could you make an tierlist of the monsters in slenderfortress?
So I have a question: do any of the classes weapons damage any of the monsters to the point where they can kill them or are they just equipped for the passive benefits they provide?
Here's another Heavy challenge. Heavy with the eviction notice.
Playing the Submerged Castle in the video has given me PTSD
Interesting fact, while heavy is mostly terrible in almost all aspects, equipping the fists of steel on him does in fact reduce the damage he takes from projectile bosses. It's downside is active as well however, so it by no means makes him good, but it allows him to survive scenarios he wouldn't have been able to otherwise if you have the foresight to know boss intros.
More alternative gamemodes tier lists plz
the scariest part about this is the fact that you play slender fortress
for the future itd be nice to reiterate the teir placement at the end of the explanation
The intro makes me chuckle, it’s good that it’s bad
I feel like soldiers gimmick should be that they have a shotgun which would deal no damage and is purely cosmetic because "soldier hiding" is basically a oxymoron, he would fight the monster.
what about the auto call feature for medic? you could set it to like 20% and you'd automatically be able to see who is dying and roughly how far away
Doesn't do as much as you think, even assuming you have every map memorized giving you a general sense of where the injured teammate is, bosses teleport around giving you only a brief moment to understand where he is.
You get to know where the boss is for 3 seconds and that's it in short.
@@SpaceGuyOnline yea good point, teleporting bosses largely invalidate the upside
its been 2 or 3 years since i last play on worbe server WELL TIME TO FIND NEW AND PLAY :D
i love the OFF music it fits for the medic

Hello, someone who plays slender fortress. I'd like to say that this tier list seems rushed or not thought well out (maybe because you played in disc ff which isn't the best experience for sf) with the class tier list. Slender fortress kinda doesn't have the worst classes in this gamemode but usually some people have different tier lists than others.
Heavy in my opinion isn't the worst class, sure he cant regenerate or is slow but he has a very high health pool and it may not sound good since sprinting is encouraged in this gamemode except for the fact that heavy is the easiest class to melee stun (which you only mention engineer flashlight stun but not melee stunning ) in this gamemode at the cost of health. Medic can do a similair job but he has half the health and relies on regen to keep him alive which is good for longrun compare to heavy which can directly stun bosses. Heavy is also good against bosses that one shot most classes (like tryphophobia that does 280 damage) or are hard hitters that nearly one shot a weaker class since having a situation where classes like soldier or booties demo cannot survive 2 shot or medic cannot regen to full. He is also effective against proxies which i think you haven't even encountered before on other sf servers which heavy shines pretty well.
Engineer has arguably a much worse class in this game mainly since having a longer flashlight duration isn't too usefull especially in maps that have infinite flashlight duration. He has higher flashlight stun than most classes but you can easely stun with flashlight in this game compare to melee making it not as effective unless its a boss with high flashlight stun health.
Spy is also not S tier since unless its a server with blind bosses or mechanic where bosses chase when making too much noise, spys 40% silent footsteps is kinda worthless since if a boss sees you, you are dead with no stats what so ever. He also doesn't have good weapons to aside from spycicle. Sure footsteps may not alert the boss but if you have a good map layout, distracting the boss is less of a downside and sometimes an upside making spy not as usefull.
I think this tier list wasn't bad except that's its more like first impressions and begineers will allways choose the class that is the easiest. I kinda recommend playing on District Zen, demon hamsters or other server since it has more bosses and more mechanics and newer types of bosses.
Boss stunning was mentioned briefly at the start, it should also be treated as a last resort option if cornered not the go-to which makes Heavy's extra health kinda pointless for those opportunities, even if he could get more opportunities in any class with Regen will have more chances.
Engineer is just meh, I hesitate to say he's worse than Pyro but he's extremely dependent on the map, something mentioned in the video and in your comment
The game mode is so old that finding updated and correct exact information is impossible resulting in personal testing that's been going on since August.
Another tier list yay
It seems SpaceGuy has neglected to provide us with the ip addresses to popular servers as claimed in the outro, a true burden of effort falls yet again on the newly bewildered.
