Essentially, the way I usually go is Minigun Heavy. Hide behind some walls/corners and when the bots come around, maul them down. In some maps, you can literally camp in an area, like DoubleCross.

The main minigun is what I usually use.

But I have some clips of me obliterating bots this way

For this strategy should use Heavy only or can use other classes like Pyro and Spy?

Usually, classes above 150 health is the way to go. Spy is extremely iffy to use, but you could get away with it if you are lucky. Some bots have difficulty snapping onto a head for some weird reason. Pyro is interesting, since sometimes it can work, and other times, not so much.

Okay, thank you very much for help

And I really do mean you can get lucky sometimes. One person killed a bot mutliple times with a fish, another butter knifed a bot.

I've gotten lucky just being a Scout

lol, those bots indeed not perfect

I usually just burned them fast when they don't shot me

Yee, the wonders

I just say Heavy since it's the one you're going to be the most lucky with

Did you know: If you pulled out melee and crouch, some bots will not attack you? Some bots won't attack friendlies...for some weird reason. Perfect time to get an interesting kill.

Wow, I didn't know that

wow interesting

Another interesting fact: Some bots will accept a duel instantly, mainly Myg0t bots. I've had a lot of fun dueling bots.

hmm

Oh, how to request duel?

You need a dueling badge. Once you have it, equip it in your action slot, and press h. Then you can duel a bot.

what is a duel

With a dueling badge, you can have duels with other players.

Very interesting

Oh and how to get it?

You can get it from the store, trade it, maybe off the market, winning 10 duels, etc.

I can give you each a dueling badge if you want, I really don't mind

It would be really good

i don't need one

Yee, just add and send an offer if you want

but thanks

which way we'll do this, trade or 10 duels?

?

also join my party we can dominate some bots @Tovarisch Kiska

nevermind

@Jampoint sorry for ping

Trade

i'll try a duel

Alright, I sent both of you a dueling badge. There are 5 uses on each badge. Be sure to use them carefully, a use is counted when someone loses or disconnects in a duel.

Thank you, very much

thnx

Ok @Jampoint

So i found a thing that is weird

They can't kill us if we get to them too short distance

So we gonna use Jarate and Bushwacka to finish them and their Medic behind (if they have pocket Medic).

Sounds crazy but it worked many times for me.

Haha demoknight skullcutter go crit

I still like the try n true method of pocketing a sniper with the vac

The bots are super easy to quick scope since they walk quite slow and only in straight lines and are never jumping around

They can't do anything when we near them

Just grab Jarate with Bushwacka

I just rocketbomb the shit out of them.

strat

loadout i use to counter bots

Thanks for sharing you have rabies Minty!

always has been

Me when I kill a bot: 'top 10 anime betrayals'

Recently my favorite method is a kritzkreig medic and a holiday munch heavy, mix In some other bot stompers and your good to go

I like to go after them when they're already chasing down another player

They wont turn around until they get a kill

A very good counter measure suggested to me by a cheats developer is to manipulate the alpha levels , unfortunately this requires admin permissions on community servers , but on the bright side no cheat has alpha detection features ( at least for the current time)

So even though this doesnt apply for countering bots whom can be spotted easily, this is used for what i would consider a bigger threat which is normal players themselves on community servers , and they are increasing day by day

What do you mean by alpha levels?

If alpha is set 0 the player becomes invisible

Higher levels will result in an almost transparent state

Wait so, if you set your playermodel opacity to 0, the cheat software won't even recognize you?

It wont detect that the targeted player is invisible therefore it would shoot him dead , not vice-versa

Giving you or any spectator a clear sign of an aim assistant software
