Meet The Pyro

[dudagato]

Reminds me of this.

 

[Mr.Mattress]

Was there really any doubt?

Its methods of killing are the most brutal and torturous in TF2. Every other character has some sort of trade off, some sort of benefit of the doubt. The Pyro doesn't have that, no clean or instant kills, no disconnection with its victims, no redeeming factors, only raw death with a bit of screaming. The only way you get someone to do something they know is truly evil is if they're truly insanely demented...

...or they think they're doing good.

We've met the Pyro...and personally think I'm ready to go home. Now.

Oh man, I want that GIF as my new Icon right now! Can someone resize it for me so I can make it my Icon?

OT: Meet The Pyro was awesome! I'm glad they put a lot of time into his video. It was worth it.

Paraphrased from a youtube comment because I cannot allow this to be lost.

"My Little Pyro, I used to wonder what real fear could be,

My Little Pyro, Until you started shooting fire at me,

Covered in fire, Tons of blood, A terrifying mask with an evil laugh

Throwing axes, It's an easy feat,

And fire makes it all complete, yeah,

My Little Pyro, Do you know you are my very worst...

*Kills me with axe*"


Valve did meet the pyro perfectly.

We Pyro players always see that when we play.... you mean we really do cause all that destruction????

I guess we can't expect people who tape down M1 and W to be even remotely sane.

So whatever the Pyro is, he/she/it's completely delusional, completely homicidal and a possible brony.

Thank you Valve for reminding me why I love you so much.

The Medic just stole the update guys

I'm kind of disappointed that we didn't learn more about who the Pyro really is, but damn if that wasn't awesome.

My biggest question now is what comes next?

No, those Pyros are the sane ones.

The real ones... Well... We're the ones who jump in the middle and give you plenty of lollypops, pop a few bubbles around you all, and place a mailbox on your lawn. We're sure to toss a mini-unicorn your way to keep you happy from a distance (I'm nodding to you, Sniper) Infact, we're so nice, we'll smash a new path for you, Rake your lawn, and give you a wonderful scratch on the back with our friendly hand-held dragon full of cuddles.

And every time, we hop and skip away to spread joy to you another day. Dirt-naps are for the grumpy.

 

[MercurySteam]

We that's the whole team done now. TF3 anyone?

 

[Darren716]

Well there's my nightmare fuel for the next year, thanks Gaben.

 

[Random Fella]

so the Scout call him a "he", the Spy call's him an "it", and the song says "in her heart" so what are we going with here?

also didn't Gabe said he was a bronie?

They are giving everyone what they want. I wanted the Pyro to be an insane robot, thusly "IT". Some wanted the Pyro to be female "Song Cues", while others wanted the Pyro to be male "HE". They aren't telling us the true identity. Ever.

Also, no. MLP has NOTHING to do with the Pyro.

Ill bet Gabe did poke them in that direction a bit.

OT: The vid was pretty good, especially like the first part, the fear of the pyro and the explanation from the other characters perspectives, very well done to lead to the rainbow/unicorn mind of the pyro, haha
Both comedic and full of action for only about 2 minutes of animation

I was commenting on ventrilo how awesome pyrovision would be then bam its in the game, oh valve you read my mind.

 

[miketehmage]

I couldn't stop smiling throughout it.

It's kind of horrible in a way, because the Pyro just seems content bringing joy and happiness to the world... But if he learned what he was actually doing? The destruction he was causing?

Though I agree with this, it's a little sad.

 

[SayHelloToMrBullet]

Those new weapons look great. Time to play some more TF2 again.

 

[Scorched_Cascade]

I loved it. *pukes Rainbows*

All the dialogue on the Pyro's being was great too.

The Heavy "I fear no man......but that thing"
The Scout (according to the captions says: "He's not here is she?"
The Spy "Inhuman thoughts"

They pretty much just tipped their hat at the most popular theories.

It's kind of funny how many people think the Pyro is on drugs though, it's the constant exposure to the high levels of asbestos in his/her/it's suit people (the same thing that screwed his/her/it's lungs up), wake up

Asbestos...not even once.

I swear, if Valve don't add a rainbow thrower, I'mma be pissed.

This should be of great interest to you
