{{Quotation|'''The Heavy''' on '''the Pyro''', [[Meet the Pyro]]|I fear no man. But that... ''thing''... It scares me.}}
  
The '''Pyro''' is a mumbling pyromaniac of indeterminate origin, and has a fervent fondness for fire and all things fire related. Wielding a homemade [[Flamethrower]], the Pyro can ignite opponents, whittling their health away over time with the ensuing [[afterburn]] damage. The Pyro also wears an asbestos-lined suit that protects the wearer against any afterburn effect.
+
The '''Pyro''' is a pyromaniac of indeterminate origin with a muffled voice and a burning passion for all things fire related. As shown in [[Meet the Pyro]], the Pyro may be delusional, visualizing themself in a utopian fantasy world known as ''[[Pyroland]]''.
  
Due to the short range of the Flamethrower, the Pyro relies heavily on ambush tactics to catch opponents off-guard. One of the primary and vital roles of the Pyro is [[Spy checking]]; a puff of flame will ignite (and therefore expose) both a cloaked and a disguised [[Spy]]. Though categorized as an offensive class, the Pyro can also be a useful asset in defense, protecting friendly Sentry Guns from Spies, removing Electro Sappers from an [[Engineer]]'s Buildings using the [[Homewrecker]] or the [[Maul]] and can also send an entire attacking team retreating for health.
+
The Pyro specializes in fighting enemies at close range using a homemade [[Flame Thrower]]. Enemies set on [[fire]] suffer from [[Fire|afterburn]] and take additional damage over time, allowing the Pyro to excel at hit-and-run tactics. Due to the Flame Thrower's short range, the Pyro is weaker at longer ranges and relies heavily on ambushing and taking alternate routes to catch opponents off-guard.
  
In addition, the Pyro can use the [[compression blast]] ability to reflect enemy projectiles, extinguish burning teammates, separate a [[Medic]] from its target, disorient enemies by pushing them into the air, and even rocket jump by reflecting a rocket toward the Pyro's own feet. The Pyro can also ignite a friendly [[Sniper]]'s Huntsman arrow, thus igniting whoever the arrow hits.  
+
Due to the Flame Thrower's limited range and the slow firing speed of their [[Flare Gun (disambiguation)|flare guns]], the Pyro is fairly weak at mid-to-long range. The Flame Thrower's [[compression blast]], can reflect enemy [[projectiles]], extinguish burning teammates, and forcibly reposition enemies, even those who are invulnerable to damage.
  
The Pyro is [[Voice actors|voiced]] by [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0060794/ Dennis Bateman].
+
Because enemies hit by fire visibly burst into flames, the Pyro is the best class for [[Spy-checking|catching Spies]], as briefly bathing an area or suspicious teammates in fire can instantly nullify an enemy [[Spy]]'s [[cloak]] and [[disguise]]. Additionally, they can use the [[Homewrecker]], the [[Neon Annihilator]], or the [[Maul]] to protect a friendly [[Engineer]]'s buildings from an enemy Spy's [[Sapper]] if the Engineer himself is not present.
 +
 
 +
While the Pyro does not have many mobility options by default, the [[Thermal Thruster]] can be used to launch the Pyro into the air and onto places normally inaccessible to the Pyro. Additionally, the [[Detonator]] and the [[Scorch Shot]] can be used to make much smaller [[Jumping#Flare jump|flare jumps]]. A skilled Pyro may even use an airblasted enemy projectile for mobility, delivering swift immolation to enemies who may have believed they were outside of the Pyro's range.
 +
 
 +
They wear an asbestos-lined suit that nullifies the afterburn of other Pyros and all flame-related weaponry (except for the [[Dragon's Fury]] and [[Gas Passer]]), although it does not provide any [[Damage#Resistance/vulnerability modifiers|resistance]] to direct fire damage. The three incendiary grenades that they carry are purely cosmetic and cannot be used.

The Flamethrower, Backburner, Degreaser, Flare Gun, and Detonator deal no damage when fired [[water|underwater]], instead they produce harmless bubbles. However, they will deal base damage if you are above the water and your enemy is also slightly above the water. There is no afterburn however, making these weapons less effective.

The aforementioned weapons will only deal damage if fired from above water at an enemy that is only partially immersed in water; however, the water will immediately extinguish the ensuing afterburn.

I fear no man. But that... thing... It scares me.
The Heavy on the Pyro, Meet the Pyro

The Pyro is a pyromaniac of indeterminate origin with a muffled voice and a burning passion for all things fire related. As shown in Meet the Pyro, the Pyro may be delusional, visualizing themself in a utopian fantasy world known as Pyroland.

The Pyro specializes in fighting enemies at close range using a homemade Flame Thrower. Enemies set on fire suffer from afterburn and take additional damage over time, allowing the Pyro to excel at hit-and-run tactics. Due to the Flame Thrower's short range, the Pyro is weaker at longer ranges and relies heavily on ambushing and taking alternate routes to catch opponents off-guard.

Due to the Flame Thrower's limited range and the slow firing speed of their flare guns, the Pyro is fairly weak at mid-to-long range. The Flame Thrower's compression blast, can reflect enemy projectiles, extinguish burning teammates, and forcibly reposition enemies, even those who are invulnerable to damage.

Because enemies hit by fire visibly burst into flames, the Pyro is the best class for catching Spies, as briefly bathing an area or suspicious teammates in fire can instantly nullify an enemy Spy's cloak and disguise. Additionally, they can use the Homewrecker, the Neon Annihilator, or the Maul to protect a friendly Engineer's buildings from an enemy Spy's Sapper if the Engineer himself is not present.

While the Pyro does not have many mobility options by default, the Thermal Thruster can be used to launch the Pyro into the air and onto places normally inaccessible to the Pyro. Additionally, the Detonator and the Scorch Shot can be used to make much smaller flare jumps. A skilled Pyro may even use an airblasted enemy projectile for mobility, delivering swift immolation to enemies who may have believed they were outside of the Pyro's range.

They wear an asbestos-lined suit that nullifies the afterburn of other Pyros and all flame-related weaponry (except for the Dragon's Fury and Gas Passer), although it does not provide any resistance to direct fire damage. The three incendiary grenades that they carry are purely cosmetic and cannot be used.

The Pyro is voiced by Dennis Bateman.

Icon pyro.jpg
  • Ambush enemies to catch them in the short range of your Flamethrower. Use corners to your advantage; however, be sure that the nozzle of the Flamethrower isn't visible from around the corner.
  • Don't approach enemies head-on; they will notice you and use your short range to their advantage.
  • Approaching enemies from the back is usually a much safer and stronger route to attack. This is an especially effective method when employed with the Backburner.
  • Your Flamethrower chews up a lot of ammo. Pick up fallen ammo to refill your supply.
  • You can often set enemies on fire and retreat, leaving them to die from the afterburn.

Weapons

Main article: Weapons

Note: Weapon damage is approximate and listed at base value. See individual weapon pages for additional figures.

All flamethrowers and flare guns deal no damage when fired underwater and instead produce harmless bubbles. The aforementioned weapons will only deal damage if fired from above water at an enemy that is only partially immersed in water; however, the water will immediately extinguish the ensuing afterburn.


Primary

Fire damage is determined by particle range from Flamethrower.

Bugs

  • Sometimes, if the Pyro dies while using the Flame Thrower, flames are left behind. The flames do not damage players and go away after a few seconds.
  • Many times, after using the Flame Thrower and quickly switching weapons, flame particles appear to shoot out of the Flame Thrower. These flames do not damage players and do not consume ammo.
  • The swing animation (on third-person) for Pyro used for all class melee weapons is delayed, causing the melee hit to register way before the animation is actually over.
