Meet the Demoman
DemomanVidSplash.png

The Demoman, real name Tavish DeGroot, is a scrumpy-swilling drunken demolitions expert from the Scottish Highlands, and is one of the more versatile members of the team. Though his weapons lack pinpoint long-range accuracy, the Demoman is a powerful if unpredictable asset, and can hold his own in just about any situation. He is a master of explosives, excelling at indirect and mid-range combat. Armed with his Grenade Launcher and Stickybomb Launcher, the Demoman uses his only good eye and knowledge of the surrounding environment for well-timed detonations that send enemies skyward, often in many pieces. Should anyone get past his explosive ordinance however, they will be shocked to learn the Demoman is also extremely proficient in Melee, being one of the deadliest melee classes in the game as he has a variety of melee unlocks in his arsenal.

The Demoman excels at swift disassembly; he can bounce his grenades in creative angles to wreak havoc on enemy Sentry Gun emplacements while remaining safely out of sight. His Stickybombs are a perfect tool for area denial, and are effective in keeping opponents away from any carts, control points and Intelligence cases he deems off-limits.

The Demoman is voiced by Gary Schwartz.

Bio

Basic strategy

Demomanava.jpg
  • Hit MOUSE1 to fire sticky bombs and then use MOUSE2 to detonate them later.
  • With the Stickybomb Launcher, the longer you hold down the fire button, the farther the shot will go.
  • Set off sticky bombs beneath your feet to ‘sticky-jump' up to great heights.
  • Shoot sticky bombs onto walls and ceilings where they're hard to spot.

Trivia

  • The voice actor for the Demoman, Gary Schwartz, also voices the Heavy.
  • The beta prototype of the Demoman was supposed to have a stereotypically Scottish appearance, consisting of pale skin and red hair. It was later dropped for the actual black Scottish style both because the former lacked originality and because the latter was easier to differentiate from the other classes.[1]
  • The HUD icon of the Demoman is inverted horizontally, as he is depicted as left-handed. The Demoman's eye patch is also on the wrong eye.
  • According to his biography, the Demoman lost his eye before being found by his real parents, but in the WAR! comic, there is a photo of him with both eyes and his parents.
  • The emblem on the Demoman's arm was originally a bomb, which was later changed to a stick of dynamite. It is currently a sticky bomb as of November 19, 2010. Other ingame appearences of the logo, such as the 119th Medals or the Carouser's Capotain remain unchanged.
  • In Poker Night at the Inventory, an image of the RED Demoman makes a cameo as the Jack card for the red suits, hearts and diamonds, in the "TF2" card deck.
  • The Demoman's eyepatch and beanie make an appearance in Worms: Reloaded as one of the hats selectable for the player's worms.
  • Template:W was hired as the first BLU Demoman.
  • The WAR! comic features a picture of the demoman as a child with his parents. The seal in the background states "In Regionem Caecorum Rex Est Luscus." In English, this is translated to "In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king".
    • Ironically, no Highlander should have had an eye past thirty, according to the WAR! comic.
  • The Assault class in Monday Night Combat has a promo item with the Demoman's eyepatch and beanie named "Eye Lad".
  • On several promotional posters, the Demoman features a blank patch without any logo on his arm. This can be seen on the Scream Fortress page, the Shogun page and the Australian Christmas page. This is also apparent in Meet the Demoman.
  • The Demoman's alternative dynamite logo is seen on the promo pages of Halloween 2009 and the Demoman's page on the WAR! Update.
