   Yeah but you have to use both shots or the unused one is gone. It also does have a faster fire speed, the wiki puts it at 50% faster firing speed so there you go.

   When it comes to the scouts main weapon I have a tie with the regular and the shortstop. Of course if the shortstop did not use the pistols ammo it would be edging ahead, as it is I just use crit-a-cola in my secondary.

I use a default scout loadout, but with the fish instead of the bat. It's great fun hopping onto a 2fort DM server and using nothing but the Mackerel.

I will admit that what you just said is my generic pub crawling tactics minus the 2fort part.

I generally use the Force-a-Nature with the pistol and Fan-o-war or a customized Shortstop (named; I forget if I described it) in a more traditional setup with the Sandman. I had loads of fun when I found a server on the custom map... I think it was Dystopia or something. A city street, all neon and such. The server had low gravity. Low gravity + scout + Force-a-Nature = flying ninja. Lots of fun rooftop battles. (whack!) BLAM BLAM [minicritminicrit!]<flys away>

I use everything for the milkman set except the stupid, ugly hat. I could trade for the hat, and the set bonus would be nice, but I consider it a permanent rebellion against the polycount pack sets in general.

Vanilla weapons are simply better then most people think.
Except mayby for the vanilla pyro axe. Axetinguisher ftw!

Also, tf2lobby matches are hard :P
The kind of challenge i want to become better, training against a mix of pubbies and skilled players that i know the playstyle of is simply not enough.

Time for you to get involved in some proper clan tf2 comps methinks. 

Oh no, really not. I'm not a very good pyro. I'd rate myself a bit above mediocre. And my community isnt really that much for competive.
I'd like to tough. After i figure out the role of a pyro in highlander. Because my teammates were screaming at me to do the most boring thing a pyro can do, wich is babysitting sentries.

Scream back at the engineer to move the sentry to a offensive position were it needs to be protected then! It is way more fun to babysit a sentry as a pyro when spies, demomen and soldiers are actively trying to destroy it.

1) Protect your Medic combo (Airblast projectiles, spycheck, extinguish).
2) Protect your Engie nest (when defending a position).
3) Disrupt Enemy Ubers.

Ambush-Pyro isn't really effective in comp play because the enemy team is more tightly organized and can pick off a lone pyro before he does any serious damage. A Pyro's job is to protect and assist the center of the team, the Medic, Sentry, Cart, etc.

I dont think its that hard to play Ambush Pyro vs Compgroup. Over three different maps I continually disrupted defenses and attacks of a whole team filled with same clan players. One map I used the same route three times in a row wiping at least 4 at a time before they started smarting to the tacic... Effective and CORRECT use of Backburner ftw...

Also just noticed. T happens to be a very frequently used letter. Finger prints on my phone screen is thck on T...

Correct use of the backburner?
I applaud you, sir.

Also, were those ambushes in pubs or actual matches?

Also there is a difference between a "clan" and a true comp team.
