looks cool, but this many snipers will mean pyro/spy fun.

Ooh, bows and arrers is it? I'll take a slice of that pie thank you.

Ooooh, that could be good.

Be an excellent counter for Sandman'd up Scouts as well.

That's ace that is.

I love the description.

I wonder if they'll introduce any interesting interactions with pyros. Either burning up the arrows in flight, or popping the pyro's gas tank.

I suppose since it's a projectile, pyros can knock it back.

Well, it doesn't stun

No, it pins you to the wall instead when it kills you. That's worth far more imo, just for comic value

It's like the painkiller stake gun :D
Are you only pinned when you're killed - or pinned when it hits you? (ie, nailing a souped up heavy to a wall briefly)

Says "pins dead/dying players". Can't exactly decipher it, typical Valve statement.

Wonder if you can pin Heavys with it?
