The Cringe That Is Scout Workshop Stat Ideas
Don't get me wrong, I love a lot of the scout cosmetics up on the steam workshop, and a lot of the weapons too, ya know what I don't like? People who name stats for the items.

Don't get me wrong yet again, these items are great and some great stats can be found in those 'lol stats xd' threads. Although my main problem, is everyone thinks scout's weapons are a gimmick now. Upwards of 80% of all the stat suggestions for scout give it gimmicks, or just plague it with 500 different stats on 1 gun. My biggest pet peeve: People giving it a 'meter' idea.

I hate meter ideas, mostly because baby face's blaster's gimmick is 'dont get hit but also don't double jump xd' and soda popper's gimmick is 'run, and we will give you 500 scout double jumps.'

These 2 weapons have led everyone to believe that scout's weapons are now his gimmick.


What I want, is a scout scattergun that's a sidegrade to the regular one, doesn't have to adjust the style of scout completely in a good way (example being the shotgun to rescue ranger idea, rescue ranger is really good but really shifts engineering playstyles.). I just want something that's good, but doesn't need some sort of gimmick to be good.

I don't wanna right click to activate 'lol swag meter' to get 69% more damage for 420 seconds, I wanna have a damage nerf, and then some buffs to make up for it, like 8 scattergun shots maybe, something that's not going to be banned in competitive that is also a sidegrade.

This is all I will say, thanks for being here to read my rant.


I don't hate the baby face's blaster or the soda popper, and you don't have to go venting on me for saying what I did about it, I just gave an example of the 2 biggest gimmick weapons for scout that just made everyone think 'OK GUYS, WE NEED METERS ON OUR WEAPON STATS, LOTS OF THEM.'

Actually the BFB, or as I call it Brawler's Blaster is more of an Speed stick for the Scout. You know like the Speed stick in the cars.

The Soda Popper well I think that should be a Cleaner's Carbine for the Scout and a Hopper variant for the Jumps.


If that is the case, I think you would like my suggestions, for I focus on utility and alt fire.

The entire premise of this post is that I don't like meters.

I want some sort of scattergun that has no gimmick. I want a sidegrade that you might actually use.

Let's try then, give me stats for the tesla shocker.

That is for the Tesla Shocker.

Like I said I would like Utility weapons for the Scout so a Short sword that acts like a HP raising only Eyelander would be good to have for the Scout.

I also posted stuff on teh Sure shot and the Holigans Slingshot, the Scout revolvers knifes and there was even a Silenced Pistol for the Scout.

Too overpowered, would be banned in competitive.
