Just about to post that one, itchy.

Tutorial? Pfffttt...people keep telling me I'm using a noob class cause it's just point and hold down your clicker with no skill involved.

Pyro is all about movement and avoiding close range fire... its certainly no noob class.

Maybe theCarpe could do an axe tutorial...

Try telling that to someone you keep flaming to death repeatedly. There's a few spys and snipers that hate me.

Sweet video!

The demonstrations had a lot of "flaming death from above" moments. Aside from the axe, dropping into a group of unsuspecting victims is one of the most funnest Pyro things.

NIce videos indeed

While the pyro video was kinda-sorta handy, the Spy video is much more useful to me. I'm a terrible spy and, actually, was going to post a thread asking for some pointers on how to play better as one.

A good deal of the info about spy detection I already knew, but general tactics to base it on just wern't there.

Thanks for bringing this stuff to my attention. I'll definitely be trying out the Spy tactics soon enough.

the good thing about this tutorial or any other tutorial that will eventually surface is always handy whether it's the class you play or not...just cause you get to understand your 'nemesis' a bit more.

good stuff dow

Very nice video. Most of the more profound points of the art of 'pyro' are covered completely. Kudos.

You can't TEACH the axe. The axe teaches YOU!

Though I've played more than enough Pyro, that video was still pretty informative. I'll be sure to try some of those things when I put the axe away from time to time.
