0:44 in top right it says he got a kill with a flaregun. Then the next kill he gets counts as manmelter kill. weird

[vivhero]

@MondoMiniman Joking I assume. If not, realize it is easier to crit with the Normal Flare Gun as you do not need to have a Pyro on the other team to store crits

[B10n3rd]

wait i thought it cannot be deflected?

[littlbigtree]

@NuggetSandwich Possibly because of the afterburn?

[bloodypaladin96]

At the beginning of the video, the Manmelter's attribute is "Projectile can not be reflected". Yet at 1:58 the video demonstrates that the projectile can be reflected. Wtf. Valve is lying to us about its weapons its trying to sell.

[LOLGmod]

@NuggetSandwich Valve really needs to get off their ass and fix these problems so Team Fortress 2 can be even better and so that we can get on our ass and keep playing

This weapon is so good if it's teamed up with Cow Mangler Soldier.

Ask him to shoot Charged Shot on his feet.

???

Have fun Crits farming.

@brokenboy27 Do you realize that you are at least the 20th person to reply to me saying the same thing?

[brokenboy27]

@NuggetSandwich nope the manmelter has two kill icons..look it up in the wiki :)

[vivhero]

@Strikedead444 Shotgun does more damage at close range, Flare Gun is easier to Crit with since it always crits burning enemies, Flare gun is better at close range, flare gun is better with Degreaser than Melter. Man Melter is of little use if the other team lacks a Pyro, Detonater can rocket Jump, Flare Gun is easier to crit with since you can light a guy on fire, switch quickly with degreaser, and pop a flare in his face for an easy 90 damage plus fire and afterburn.

@NuggetSandwich When you kill someone with the projectile, the flare gun kill icon will appear. When you kill someone with the afterburn from the projectile, the "real" manmelter kill icon will appear.
