Overview[]

The Scout is a new unit released in the 4.1 Patch. Like its Team Fortress 2 counterpart, it is a very hard target to hit, boasting 65 defense at Rank 1. Besides high defense with dodge, it is also the first Non- unit that uses a shotgun at early levels.

It can deal damage through a shotgun (known in TF2 as a "Scattergun") attack similar to Sheriff Colt's Shotgun and a 3-space Baseball Bat attack similar to a Brutalizer's Triple-strike except it can target any ground unit. However, none of its attacks can target air units. Couple this with the facts that its low Health, while being partially compensated by meager resistances, will mean that any unit which manages to hit the Scout will hurt the scout badly. It is possibly a good unit for low level players.

It is another unit from Team Fortress that does not costs , and can be mass produced.

Its animation sequences are quite elaborate.

Trivia[]

The icon for the Baseball Bat attack shows the Boston Basher, a completely different weapon. In TF2, the Baseball Bat is an aluminum bat, while the Boston Basher is a spiked baseball bat that causes bleeding damage on hit, and bleeding damage to the player on miss. The Scout's sprite uses the Sandman, a wooden bat that can be used to launch baseballs, but lowers max health by 10 points.
