Pipes can be unpredictable at range, so this is a downside for you as well.īottom line: sticky bombs have their uses, such as laying a trap at the feet of an unsuspecting heavy/medic combo and blowing them to gibs, and destroying engie nests that require some direct force to deal with (with an uber of course). Also, people will be trying to dodge the grenades rolling and bouncing around them, so they will be distracted trying to do this and will probably not see the spy sneaking up behind them. It also works great for suppression foring grenades at distant apponents means you probably won't have to deal with them up close.

I'M NOT RAGING AT THE STICKY BOMB LAUNCHER I think it's a great weapon. Yes a kritzed sticky launcher does a lot of damage, but so does the grenade launcher.
