I spent an hour or so reading this, only to see "Continue to part two."
 

[Puck]

I love Natasha. Because somebody touched Sasha, now I dont want here anymore.

No, seriously. I dont think TF2 needs the heavy as a damage dealer. The snaring is a lot more useful, and just gets better with moar teamwork. And last I checked T in TF2 stands for "team".

Hm. Never noticed that in-game...

However, two heavies, one with sasha and one with natasha... now that is a force to be reckoned with, even without medics. In payload as blue even more fun, as you can keep on firing indefinitely.

[Astral]

Remembered what I was going to post. I think.

Respawn of the Dead

I hate you for introducing this to me... can't stop reading...

[HonkyPunch]

Natascha is hated because it's an obnoxious, irritating weapon.

Also, Respawn of the Dead is amazing.

What is respawn of the dead?

This:

Respawn of the Dead

Also, probably the crowning WTF moment so far..

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Come to me, Soldier, Shovel whispered. We’ll drown them out.

That voice, that lusty, velvety soft voice of Shovel’s was enough to set Soldier off. He dove onto the bed and started to ravish his favorite weapon, squirming and writhing in throes of ecstasy.

Goddammit, he was going to show those sissy-boy maggots how a real man fucks. SOLDIER HAVING SEX WITH A SHOVEL. WHAT.

[PTTG??]

WHAT.

I just read the first section. That's soul-clenchingly horrifying.

I don't think I'll ever be able to play as soldier again...

and the worst part is..

You would be bludgeoning people to death with HIS LOVER if you did. HE BEATS PEOPLE TO DEATH WITH A GARDEN TOOL THAT HAS LIKELY BEEN IN HIS ANUS.

Team? What's a team? you mean I'm not the only one fighting the other side?

[Deadbeard]

Respawn of the Dead: totally awesome.

Natascha: completely worthless. Doubly so against a lucky huntsman sniper. They'll just peg you with two arrows and be on their merry way.

No dragnar! He lies to you. He tries to split you from your true goal!

 Natascha can be useful depending on the latency of the victtim. With a low latency the slowdown won't effect them at all as most of the bullets generally miss and the slowdown won't cause them to really skip a beat. On high-ping opponents they'll be glued to the damn floor. Really widens the number of situations where the heavy can be useful. Opponents can only really kill you at full health if they can maneuver into a proper killing position, so keeping them in your line of fire will wreck most peoples ability to kill you.

Lag compensation makes ping irrelevant in determining who wins in a fight in TF2.

People bitch about it, but it works.

Only if you play by yourself. The amount of support kills you can rack up using natascha is enormous, as the huntsman sniper/directhit solly/sasha heavy/etc standing next to you has a lot less aiming to do. Especially against classes who rely on speed (scout/pyro/medic) it's loads of fun.

Two natascha's on one team is worthless, though.

Except the times it doesn't.

Good god, I'm reading that Respawn of the Dead thing...
This is so great.

I didn't say it works well, I said it works.

It's a tradeoff between having to shoot ahead of all of your targets depending on their ping and occasionally getting killed behind a wall based on your killer's ping. Sure, those behind-the-wall or killed-after-shooting or 50-foot-melee kills are annoying, but having to lead all your targets is even more annoying.

That being said, Valve's lag compensation is horrendous compared to what some of their competition is doing.
