Attention, all pybros! It's time we go on strike for all the unthankful Engineers we've saved their buildings from being sapped! Attention, all Engineers! Are you sick of those Pyros carrying those Homewreckers and Neon Annihilators and not destroying those pesky sappers? Now's your chance to get back at them with this summer's update!

Contracts

Trivia

  • The Engineer vs. Pyro Update was largely inspired by the Sniper vs. Spy Update from 2009, with a lot of cosmetic and weapon models coming from years gone by.
  • The Smasher was considered to be added in this update, but was decided the Firestriker was a much better looking weapon.
  • In the first teaser poster for the update, a weathered Repair Node can be seen in the far back.
  • Demoman being able to use the Steel Smasher, in addition to 2 new achievements relating to him, may hint that he may have a larger role in a future update.
