What items do you think will be nerfed? Why?

As for me, the axetinguisher is sadly obviously going to get nerfed. It really needs it but I don't want it to be true.

EDIT: Not saying that the most used weapons will get nerfed, but hey, there's a chance. http://tf2stats.net/weapons/

NEVER. PYRO INSTANT CRIT MASTER RACE. Also lawl, I noticed Dead Ringer nerf. It'll be fun for me as well as watching other Spies trying to adjust.

I'm not really sure what will get nerfed, but I'm looking forward to seeing the community react/rage at the next update.

Also don't forget the will buff some stuff too. Maybe the Tomislav will be rebuffed seeing as how they nerfed it so badly that no one uses it anymore.

Winger

That seems...ok

In MvM, when robots are killed by sniper headshots or explosive headshot upgrade, they will drop 'red' money that will automatically be collected when it would otherwise dissolve

That. Yes. Finally.

Also Liberty Launcher :< Other than that all the weapons I use are somehow unchanged or the change sounds good (Winger).

StarEDIT: Also from all the new items, Sniper only got FOUR. Out of SIXTY. WHAT IS THIS.

AND LAST

BUT NOT LEAST

THE BEST THING OUT OF THIS UPDATE

Posted: **July 12th, 2013, 7:56 am**

The only thing I hate about this update is that it has left TF2 unresponsive when I open up the server list. Playing in training mode is just awfully laggy for me anyways, but it's pretty much the only thing I can do. I've also heard reports of items not dropping at all when I looked at the discussion for TF2.
So yeah. I got a black and aqua summer cooler from my summer checks, that's about it. The other nerfs/updates are something that could really bother me less because I'm not used to playing with them.

Posted: **July 12th, 2013, 10:23 am**

The items still seem to drop for me, seeing how I got another escape plan yesterday.
