  • My favorite shotgun  is a 12 gage longbarrel farmer's porchgun.Bruises my shoulder every time I touch it off. It makes the prettiest sound.

  • lol you play with bots ...

  • @ZipZapZoupp i seen a huntsman and a few other weapons that bots dont use, not all are bots

  • the cowmangler is actually great for doing rocket jumps AND still having damaging projectiles.Who doesn't love lesser self damage and still being able to shoot 4 shots?

  • cowmangler is a great wep considering macthes like in arena as there r not a lot of ammo but the cowmangler has unlimited ammo so yeah its a preety good wep alright

  • fuck you gabe newell you fucked mangler too nextfuck urself

  • The bison isn't anything like a shotgun? I mean as soon as you say there's no spread it's not like a shotgun

  • The downsides of the mangler can be canceled

    No random crits and can't be crit boosted? Can be mini crit boosted though :D

    Damage and reload speed loss? You have 5 damn shots :/

    Less damaged to buildings? Shut down the buildings and work together with a demoman

  • Wait you're playing with bots??? But those names are so original!!!

  • Everyone in this game was a bot exept Star :/

    Not as good now I realised.

  • Awesome your good

  • @DibbzTheLoner Ah, I see what you mean now.

    If Pyros are reflecting your rockets, then that's YOUR problem. Pull out your shotgun, it's there for a reason. This is what I mean by saying it's a crutch weapon.

    Nice avatar by the way :3c

  • you're playing with bots

  • how to get this weapon

  • @Dave49051 LOOK IT UP ON WIKI NUMBNUTS!

  • Black Box is a lot better now.

  • @gocus123 Black box is my least favorite rocket launcher by far.

  • I dunno why everyone is going mental over the nerf and calling it garbage. It's pretty balanced now, there's no clear answer to "which is the best rocket launcher?" and that's pretty much what balance is.

    The 10% less damage isn't that huge of a deal, considering you overkill most targets anyway so it'd only rarely increase the shots to kill. And an extra rocket coupled with a special attack is still nothing to snort at. And the absence of crits most just stops you getting a Kritzkrieg pocket.

  • @DibbzTheLoner There's no clear answer? Not as much as you may think. The Liberty Launcher and Black Box are both crutch weapons. Only a skill-devoid player would use them. The Direct Hit does indeed have its uses, as does the CM5K. So between the stock, DH, and CM5K, the choice is up to your play style and the needs of the match.

  • @pixelmagic777 I was more referring to the fact that before the patch it was pretty safe to say the CM5K was the best rocket launcher, but after balancing it's no longer a clear cut decision between the stock and CM5K.

    What you said is true, however I would say that the Liberty Launcher could be equipped as a response to a very skilled Pyro reflecting too many of your stock rockets. And I know it doesn't count but the Black Box is good for Saxton Hale :P

  • @DibbzTheLoner I agree actually. I use the cow mangler to this day and it's one of my favorite rocket launchers because you can rocket jump and have four rockets to fire in mid-air.

  • @DibbzTheLoner TLDR

  • @rock4574571234 Cool story, bro o.0

  • @DibbzTheLoner It is balanced now, but I think everyone is just pissy that the damage ramp-up was fixed on it so it no longer does a shit-ton of damage at close range (And rightly so).

  • Extra ammo vs less dmg to sentries? Thats still a downside, why does he not mention that?

  • yeah guys IT sucks really bad so dont get it

  • THE COW MANGLER 5000 SUCKS DICK!!!

  • if i want the laser bazuka do i have to buy it then?

  • what did they do to nerf the cow mangler? I ask because I started playing after the nerf happened so I never saw it in its hayday.

  • @TheValiantBob they nerfed it the day after it came out. They nerfed it to do the -10 % damage, 5% slower reload, and before the patch you could crit boost it but but they changed that.

  • @TheValiantBob also, they nerfed the shit out of the charge shot, which was way too good before anyway.

  • its like pyro's rocket launcher in tfc

  • holy shit i think you're one of the most popular tf2 commentators at the moment look at those views! and subscribers!

  • You were playing whit bots! LOLOLOLOLOLOL

  • Can anyone please give me the cow mangler stats pre nerf?

  • This is your most veiwed video! :D

  • They got nerfed :( so now i think the black box is alot better. Just my opinion

  • the day these came out i crafted them as well still got them :D

  • how do you get your tf2 look like that?

  • What HUD are you using? :o

  • @VADIM567 I think he is using pv hud. I might be wrong though.

  • lol i didn't notice he was playing with bots until the end

  • didnt they nerf this? ike -10% damage

  • lol

    

  • People don't know how useful rockets are against sentries, so everyone had to complain.

  • The cowmagder was never nerf they just show the bad thing about it look at the pact notes

  • Righteous Bison is so underrated. It is invaluable in tight corridors, especially the sewers in 2fort, if the enemy team is rushing and Pyros are reflecting your shit. Spam Bison lasers and they're dead. Best Soldier sidearm IMO.

  • @MisterWugglez >2fort.

  • @MisterWugglez Implying you always play on 2Fort. TBH, I can't seem to get the hang of the weapon, I always feel the shotgun is more "reliable."

  • Comment removed

  • I started using the direct hit after I realized the cow mangler was ok, but the direct hit has so much more to offer.

  • Comment removed

  • Cow Mangler in the first day-Amazing,huge beams.

    Later:Slow,incredibly small damage,slower reload,frustrating,beams are smaller and ugly.

  • Righteous Bison is righteous.

  • R.I.P. Cow Mangler.

    Before the patch, you were amazing. We will remember you.

  • @butterfingersman fuck that shit all I remember is the lag whenever the fucker was fired.

  • @butterfingersman it was op as fuck  i'm happy that noob weapon got nerfed

  • @butterfingersman

    what fixed the patch?

  • @apelijkheid WOAH! Top comment! This is amazing!

    Anywho, the patch severely nerfed the charge shot with the Cow Manger. It used to be able to kill multiple (I'm talking four or five) people standing together and light them on fire if they didn't die. They also fixed that amazing taunt charge shot glitch. (You could taunt while shooting your charge shot)

  • @apelijkheid Also, it fixed that HUGE knockback seen in this video.

  • @butterfingersman

    What was the nerf? :o

  • Comment removed

  • @butterfingersman WHY R.I.P??

  • @GABRIEL10021 The Cow Mangler was nerfed.

    Today, it's much less powerful.

  • @GABRIEL10021

    cos it sucks now LIKE REALLY SUCKS

  • @LegoAssassin007 What did they change?

    

  • @butterfingersman What did they change?

  • @MRiSellDrugs the reload is longer

  • @MRiSellDrugs and other things 

  • @butterfingersman No, it won't. Good bye OP weapon, welcome balance, you have been missed.

  • @sspope I've already commented stating that I like the new Cow Mangler. 

  • Comment removed

  • @roflpoopinthepee Nope.avi. I think it's still an average weapon. :3

  • well they dont want to put it in the beta because they dont want to spoil the update lol

  • sooo what's better that or the black box plz some1 answer fast!

  • @edenproject199 cowmangler was better before it was nerfed, now black box is better.

  • @mGpivot857 That's debatable. Overall the normal rl is better because most likely you have your team around (so more access to dispensers, medics). I guess if you stray off on your own the black box is better for you.

  • how much METAL is it worth

  • @TheShortyProject 1 scrap like other weapons ... It sucks

  • @pitterr5 Well to be fair, if it were not for the bug that made it Stronger than the stock Rocket, it would have been horrid on release. The downsides simply were not listed on the gun. The only actual nerfs were the removal of the damage bug, the taunt firing bug, and the slowing of reload.

  • Y u be playing with bots?

  • they nerfed the cow mangler SO badly that the only reason for it to be in your set is if you have gunboats equipped...nuf said....

  • SNOW FLAKES! =D

  • 5:08 that soldier leaves, turns around, and kills himself trying to shoot you.

  • 5:08 noob soldier

  • What? A unique weapon has more potential than the weapon that every noob owns? NERF THE SHIT OUT OF IT!

  • @SandmanD3 oh the irony... if the unique weapons are better then explain me why in competitive every "pro" player basically uses the stock weapons?

    there are many many classes that dont even have anything as good as stock weapons... like the scout stock shotgun...

  • @xouric0 i dont like using alot of the unique items but dont get me wrong i perfer some of the uniques over stock weapons... Its also depends alot on the player and their preference...

  • Comment removed

  • I wasted my Black Box crafting this, it's a complete fail.

  • bots are still okay

  • That's wrong, there's a huge downside to it. It's one of the worst launchers you can use if you're going to be pocketed by a Medic. No crits, AT ALL, (no kritzkrieg, crit boost, anything), so Medics hate you, it's also useless on buildings. I think the bison doesn't go through buildings anymore.

    I still use the stock over it.

  • Pros- The extra shot makes it fun for rocket jumping, and the alt-fire is fun to use.

    Cons- It's weak, noticeably so especially after the update to it. You're shots are also super weak against sentries. Sure you can try and disable them but the charge makes you super vulnerable.

  • 2:57 DEMOMAN! NOOOOOOOOO!

  • Comment removed

  • how did i end up here from trolol?!?!

  • Akfjickdn I want one!! :D

  • Remember when the cow mangler was good?

  • @oiramldx

    I remember when it first came out, and a few months after.. That thing would dropp my FPS to like.. 5 FPS because I get hit by the charge shot and the particles did not agree with my computer. Thankfully they made the shot and its particles MUCH smaller.

  • You used bots!!!!!haha that's fine

  • how do i get numbers to show up if i hit someone

  • @awsomeman75 hes using pvhud

  • @awsomeman75 Lol, it's not the hud, well partly. Go to ESC>Advanced setting>and check the boxes you want. The PvHud makes the numbers yellow and bigger. Without it they will be smaller.

  • nocrit servers are boring

  • personally the longer reload time totally kills me, i always seem to get caught with an empty clip and get totally destroyed

  • its bak too 4 rockets....suks

  • @xXSpaceMexicanXx

    Um, it still has 5, it just became useless as a damage oriented weapon. Really, its just for people who love to Rocket Jump now.

  • This wep Is so fun :D

  • how did u reduce spawn time?

  • First weapon unlock I got.

  • i just got this weapon today, and he's right, it's a LOT of fun

  • LOL the death animation from the Cow Mangler reminds me of the Light Beam from Metroid Prime 2. Memories :)

  • i see 1 bad thing about it, i dont have it :[

  • @biggysmalls53 whats your steam name? i have two extra if you want one

  • I love this gun :D

  • I never lost so many expensive things before!

  • it has a down side it has barley no blast radius

  • Trolol led me here....

  • I wish it did the same damage 2 people its got 2 many downsides

  • almost no building damage, less damage to people, and slow reload time = not overpowered.

  • why play on no crit servers

    i mean they're not overpowered and everyone has the same chance of getting them

  • I love how i typed trolol and this came up :)

  • Could you get me one of those? It would be sick. I'm F2P so I can't really get it that easily. My name is Gucking Fay.

  • @myturdz funny how bad your grammar is.

  • @SunOfStorm Just go to Advanced options and check the box marked "show damage done to players" or something like that.

  • funny how the rest of the team are'nt doing anything

  • @MyTURDZ he's playing with bots -_- theres a anotation and he might of mentioned it in the video saying he did.

  • this gun is'nt overpowered its the same as the default gun

  • @MyTURDZ its completely different, it was OP cause it had 5 shots and unlimited ammo. also the charged shot

  • can I get some help please? how can I get an add-on for team fortress so that I can see the damage done to players like in this video?

  • @PH4NT0M95 PV Hud

  • I love ur vids star <3

    -alexis

  • Lol bots are sooooo stupid

  • I tried using this a couple of days ago it's really fun but almost close to useless

  • You mentioned the Righteous Bison was like a shotgun. I think it's more like a second rocket launcher because, like you said, it fires in a straight line, but it also moves slower.

  • 1000th comment :D

    the cow mangler was nerfed so it has a beam of about the size of righteous bison and the charged shot is a regular cow mangler shot it sux

  • Yeah, well, Valve nerfed the fuck out of it and made it useless compared to the regular launcher.

  • @surrender127 I never understood why do people think this is OP.Destroying sentries is a huge thing.Sure you can disable sentries and leave it up to your teammates to destroy them but there's no teamwork in pubs anyway.

  • @surrender127 It's still better than the regular... 5 shot spam bursts just hilarious

  • @surrender127 And pretty soon, that new Pyro weapon is going to be nerfed, too.

  • @SSBBplay It cant be nerfed, trust me less damage is TOO underpowered even for valve to see clearly and not as much ammo or something would also be too underpowered.

  • @RobloxMegahammerFilm I think you're blind as in seeing how much damage that thing does. W+M1 peeps can rape the crap out of anyone. It will be nerfed, trust me. It is op. Now stop your invalid argument, you douche.

  • @SSBBplay Thanks for the reaction.

  • @SSBBplay In my opinion that guy is not that great since it takes away the airblast. Sure it heals you and gives you crits but ppl at a decent range can take you down no problem.

  • @SSBBplay It won't be nerfed to hell. Its lasted 3 weeks without a nerf. In fact when I see one of these Pyros with the new flamethrower, I grin because I can take full advantage of them and their lack of airblast. Honestly, if this gun gets fed, either the Pyro pulled a good ambush or the victim that charged up this gun is an idiot. Plus, if Valve ignored those who were begging for a Machina Nerf, I doubt they'll listen. Adapt, simple.

  • @vivhero You've obviously never played on 2Fort before. Friendly base camping Pyros make it impossible. And you've obviously haven't seen the op side when the Pyro taunts (which Pyros have inuvln while doing). It's hard to get at a decent range on 2Fort. The map is constructed to screw you over with these types of things!

  • @vivhero That's what my argument would've been before I went insane. I will get a Phlog soon and I will camp and I will anger all the soldiers I would've proved wrong. All on 2FORT! 2Fort, you fucking noob!

  • @SSBBplay Okay, out down the little act. Yeah, the weapon can be abused on 2Fort, but lets face it, 2Fort has always been a map unbalanced by new weapons. Many people who play competitive actually consider the new Pyro Flamethrower to be awful and near useless. And insane? Please, you're just another kid going through his/her "Dark and Edgy" phase.

  • @vivhero You only think of me as a kid because it's the Internet. If you knew me personally, I'm sure you would have kept your ugly text to yourself. You don't know me, so shut up. (and when I said I went insane, I wasn't referring to this weapon arguement, you know nothing.)

  • @SSBBplay With your name and Icon I cannot along with that grammar I cannot take a thing you say seriously. Also, Noob? You sound like a typical elitist teenage boy who plays Call of Duty. And really? 2Fort? Play some Foundry, Gullywash, Crossfire, Viaduct, whatever. And honestly, even if you were some 7 foot tall dude who was ripped, I'd still tell you this right in your face because I enjoy seeing you mad. Its funny to me.

  • @vivhero Uh huh... Your comment proves to be totally ignorant. You're just proving my point more and more. Also, I'm not mad. There are certain things needed in a sentence to show anger. But I guess ignorance is bliss, RIGHT?

  • star i want to craft the cow mangler but i have heard its is crap but do u need direct hits to deal damage

  • @qwertyp15 the damage is almost the same because the ramp up is different, and you don't have to charge at all if you don't want to. The only downside is it gives soldier an actual counter (every other class has hard counters). Even then, like the solemn vow, with an alert that you'll deactivate a sentry you can get your team to faceroll your one new counter :D. I still prefer the original, but that's just because it sounds amazing.

  • i haven't tried the cow mangler yet, but i do have the righteous bison. i prefer the shotgun and the reserve shooter.

  • I pressed the like button, It really helps him out.

  • 4:03 does "Cannot be crit boosted" come to mind?

  • @ManofWario oh no, I can't get Kritzkreiged with the CM5K

    /sarcasm

  • @ManofWario btw this video is old. When it came out.

  • I scrapped my cow mangler because trolls told me it was bad T_T

  • @MrRobCorso it's because it is overpowered

  • @luizmw2 I don't get it...why does everyone think weapons like this are overpowered but the Soda Popper is completely fine? IMO this is perfectly balanced,sentries are important to take down and you can't get crits at all.Stop bitching.

  • @MrRobCorso Dude weapons are balanced! Let me tell you something: I once went on server which was disconnected from the items server so I was forced to play as spy with the basic gear. I got as much points as I would with my Enforcer/Big Earner/Dead Ringer. Believe me or not but I really did this!

  • so does the bison do spread damage like the shotgun?

  • I smelted my dropped bison. Am I missing much?

  • @TheKatamariguy YES. Bison doesnt look that good, but its soo much better then shottie

  • does about 15% less damage than the normal rocket launcher, the mini-crit attack deals about 3x damage but makes you lose all ammo. best thing i can see about it is the "goes through sentry" part

  • just got this gun! lucky me!

  • Random noob question: How can I change my screen name on the game? it's stuck as a part of my email and I want to change it.

  • @XxWicklexrX Look around the options menu on TF2.
