    If this image doesn't say it, I don't know what does. Take a good sniper and a medic with two braincells and you cannot kill them unless you get lucky with a caber demo. I'd love to see the vaccinator go. Usually I don't care about overpowered BS weapons (the huo-long heater is still there after all) but the vaccinator just breaks this map. Not many people use it because they know what a dick move it is, but the people who do just dominate.

    -1 I always picked on them, never had an issue when I was an admin there, and it was spammed then as well.

    I've never been able to pick them. I need to kill two targets with full charged headshots both (or one with charge and one with quick shot if i take the medic first) and usually just die because a pro sniper is the one being guarded.

    I actually hate the vaccinator with a passion

    Disliking a weapon is no reason to ban it, imo. You just have to work around it. Try buying a BKB.

    That's not the reason I want it gone. The reason is that a sniper and a medic can sit in a spot like the one in my screenshot and not die, because the only thing that can come close enough to them to kill them (caber demo) gets killed in seconds either by being picked out of the air or by the vacc medic switching to blast resistance as the demo attacks.

    What is a BKB?

    Option 1: go spy > melee
    option 2: go demo > stickyjumper > any melee wep which isnt the caber

    And that is why you have to work with your team, as the game is meant to be. Soldiers and scouts and snipers and demomen together can easily take them out. Throw a pyro or two in for overkill.

    As the other stated, you just workaround.

    A stickyjumping demoman is a huge threat.

    You can even caber the medic if he's not fast in switching resistances.

    I frequently play as a sniper or vacc medic, just to be annoying as possible. I always end up getting killed by either: soldier/demo, demoknight, spy, sneaky pyros, and anything else that I'm not resistant to at the time.

    I dont really think this medi-gun needs to be removed.
    Spy Can backstab Medic or Sniper.
    Otherwise Try to eliminate them!

    this in the picture doesnt really look hard to take out as spy, stock knife and enforcer. first backstab the sniper when you have backstabbed him the medics first reaction is going of course to be taking out his melee, now when he is defensless against bullets pull out your enforcer and take him out

    Scouts can also get to the back lines, so can spies demos soldiers pyros and even engineers with the mini sentry can take them out if they are sneaky enough.

    +1 the vacc is extremely over powered take lets you have hacker what's already hard to then someone changes to a vacc medic with bullet resistance it makes an literally impossible combo to defeat.

    Quite right. Makes for a better experience.

    Then work around it. You have a team, and several damage types to choose from. Bring all three.

    N0;name has already stated many times that he DOES NOT want to ban any weapons on orange or enforce class limits.
