logs.tf has information which is much more detailed and useful than Sizzlingstats, such as the average time to charge an Uber, advantages lost, damage taken, seeing who kills which class, etc. And honestly, I think it's better if people stopped checking the stats mid-game. Surely that can wait until the game is over?

They've reversed a change following competitive players' complaints before, with the Badlands mid window coming to mind.

why people keep offclassing to demo

Invited. Welcome to AFL!

Don't think this way and conclude on pure theorycrafting. Actual balanced unlocks will never be allowed if you close your mind to them and make immediate broad assumptions about their impact on the game. Gunboats allows Soldiers to jump for free! Medics will never survive! Kritzkrieg has faster charge! That means a permanent ~20% Uber advantage! etc.

Shounic probably talking about Soldier's parachute. Can airstrafe quite a bit which reduces the airshot-begging I guess.

"demo took...30..." - slayer as demo, at midfight
