Demo does not really fill the role of crowd control: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crowd_control_(video_gaming). According to that page, pyro is CC, not demoman.

In HL, the role of Area Denial is filled by many classes already. His role in HL is dealing damage alongside the heavy. Thats it.

"He is the first to the midfight because of the high damage he can do"

This is not what because means.

Just revise/rewrote the Highlander summary. Feel free to let me know what you think. -Whooves

Im the one who wrote the older HL section. There is some wrong information in this iteration (specifically the DPS of the sticky launcher). But the main issue i have is that you include quite a bit of unnecessary information. you include sections about the mechanics of the Demoman, but that is not needed in the Highlander section.

Your sections about his roles on different maps is ambitious, but unnecessary. Demoman is similar to the sniper in HL. His damage is always the most useful thing he can bring to the team. His playstyle does not change significantly from map to map.

You go into the different uses of the demoman. A section on Kritzkrieg + demo has value, i think. Your section on traps can be much shorter (Traps arent used very often, but when they are, provide a defensive advantage, or can result in a sneaky pick).

Dont need to talk about scout and pyro counters. Maybe only mention that scout is the traditional counter to demoman.

DEFINITELY dont need to mention he has no hitscan weapons. Dont talk about demoknight if it isnt in the context of Comp HL. You could say something like "Some players and teams have experimented with using the Demo's shields, but often to little success. This strategy is reliant upon using a Charge Turning Script, which are banned in some leagues. Demoknight often fills a role similar to roaming soldiers, leaving heavies to fill the role of damage."

Overall, i liked my version better, but i dont know how to revert it. -Radman [Just so you know, no leagues ban the targe script. banning scripts would be incredibly controversial. --Koobadoobs (talk) 22:54, 3 July 2013 (WEST)]
