I've been seeing a lot more demoman lately, were it used to be 2-3 it's now 4-5. Mabye its my imagination.

But now I slowly resenting the demoman, even though I play as a demoman often. I'm seeing a lot more Demoman: campers, stickie whores, and over-all cheap players. I don't want to hate my own class. Mabye its just cause I've only been playing for 2 months now...

Actually, I've noticed it too. I was just on a team with six demomen. Lots of booms.

yeah unfortunately people are trying to take advantage of demomen, but there is a huge difference between a good demoman and a great demoman.

Demomen may be on the rise, but it looks like Pyro has dropped off to pre-update levels.

0-2 Pyros to a team is what I usually see now.

What the hell is a sticky whore? And I know people don't like it but spawn camping is a valid tactic, if nobody can get out of the spawn they can't do shit. Since when was using your weapons to their full potential cheap.

It sounds like pure whining.
