These robots are equipped with a [[Flame Thrower]] and attack up close. They may use their compression blast to deflect most projectiles (see [[Compression blast|article]] for list). However, they will not use compression blast to extinguish teammates on fire, often use compression blast late on fast-moving projectiles such as [[Crusader's Crossbow]]'s arrows and never intentionally shove away [[Stickybomb]] traps or enemies. Pyro Robots that appear with and cluster around Giant Robots eventually scatter when the giant is killed. Some Pyro Robots constantly shoot fire regardless of whether there are enemies nearby; this is typically done to both make a Spy's job more difficult and to light the arrows of [[Sniper Robot#Bowman|Bowmen]]. However, most Pyro Robots that constantly shoot fire never airblast.

The Pyro-bot

Pyro Robots appear in Mann vs. Machine as enemies. They are mechanical versions of the Pyro. Unlike other robots, they are immune to afterburn, much like the Pyro.

Invulnerable grey versions of the Pyro Robot also appear in SnowVille, pulling the sleigh.

Normal variants

Pyro

Icon Name Primary Attributes
Pyro
Pyro Flame Thrower
Flame Thrower


These robots are equipped with a Flame Thrower and attack up close. They may use their compression blast to deflect most projectiles (see article for list). However, they do not use compression blast to extinguish teammates on fire, often use compression blast late on fast-moving projectiles such as Crusader's Crossbow arrows and never intentionally shove away Stickybomb traps or enemies. Pyro Robots that appear with and cluster around Giant Robots eventually scatter when the giant is killed. Some Pyro Robots constantly shoot fire regardless of whether there are enemies nearby; this is typically done to both make a Spy's job more difficult and to light the arrows of Bowmen. However, most Pyro Robots that constantly shoot fire never airblast. Overall, they tend to pose not too much of a threat given that they have to be in close range in order to deal damage and the presence of a Medic can help nullify afterburn.

Crit Pyro

Voodoo-Cursed Pyro Soul
Pictogram plus.png 100% crit chance

This advanced variation of the single Pyro-bot appears only in Caliginous Caper and Broken Parts. Their speed makes them faster than Scout-bots, so do not let them take the bomb. These Pyros are also very skilled at reflecting projectiles and their damage bonus increases damage of reflected projectiles as well. The variant that appears in Caliginous Caper has the same stats as the variants in Broken Parts, but is named "Pyro" and wears the Old Guadalajara hat.

Flare Pyro

Icon Name Secondary Attributes
Pyro flare
Flare Pyro Flare Gun
Flare Gun


This less common variant wields the Flare Gun, allowing it to attack outside of Flamethrower range, although with some difficulty when a target is up close. Their movement behavior is similar to the normal Pyro.

Flare Pyro (Type 2)

Icon Name Secondary Attributes
Pyro
Pyro Detonator
Detonator
Pictogram plus.png +60% fire rate bonus
Pictogram plus.png +80% faster reload rate


This very rare variant of Flare Pyro uses an upgraded Detonator. These Pyro-bots have a single Pyro-bot icon and only appear on the 2nd wave of Mean Machines as a Giant Pyro's support.

Pyro Pusher

Icon Name Secondary Attributes
Pyro flare
Pyro Pusher Scorch Shot
Scorch Shot
Pictogram plus.png 100% crit chance
Pictogram plus.png 25% fire rate bonus
Pictogram minus.png 25% slower reload rate

Another less common Pyro-bot variant wields a permanent crit-boosted Scorch Shot. Its flares travel slower, allowing players to dodge with ease. They can impose a greater threat because it can knock back an unlucky player and set anyone on fire in a small radius.

Fast Scorch Shot

Icon Name Secondary Attributes
Pyro flare
Fast Scorch Shot Scorch Shot
Scorch Shot
Pictogram plus.png +30% projectile speed
Pictogram plus.png +25% fire rate bonus


This rare variant carries the Scorch Shot like the Pyro Pusher, but its flares travel 3.72 times faster than the Pyro Pusher's ones.

Giant Robots

Icon Name Primary Attributes
Pyro
Giant Pyro Flame Thrower
Flame Thrower
Pictogram plus.png 3000 HP

Pictogram minus.png -50% movement speed


Giant Pyro robots are equipped with a Flame Thrower and behave like their smaller counterparts. On later waves and certain difficulties, they can appear with a permanent crit boost. Giant Pyros are very skilled at reflecting projectiles, so be careful.

Giant Flare Pyro

Pictogram plus.png 3000 HP

The Giant Flare Pyro robot wears an Old Guadalajara and is equipped with a Detonator, which can fire accurate shots at a faster rate.

Unused content

  • Three unused Pyro Robot templates exist:

Giant Airblast Pyro

Giant Airblast Pyro Degreaser
Degreaser

Pictogram plus.png 3000 HP
Pictogram plus.png +40% knockback resistance
Pictogram plus.png +500% airblast force
Pictogram minus.png -95% damage dealt
Pictogram minus.png -50% movement speed


A Giant Pyro variant that wields the Degreaser and wears the Dead Cone. Its Degreaser only does 0.05x damage, but pushes opponents with five times the normal force.

Giant Flare Pyro (Unused Type)

Icon Name Secondary Attributes
Pyro flare
Giant Flare Pyro Scorch Shot

Pictogram plus.png Deals knockback upon hitting an enemy
Pictogram plus.png +80% fire rate bonus

A Giant Flare Pyro variant that has the Scorch Shot, fires 10% faster than that of a Giant Flare Pyro, and pushes defenders around more.

Pictogram info.png 1.9x bigger in size
Pictogram plus.png 55,000 HP

Pictogram plus.png +500% damage dealt
Pictogram plus.png +200% airblast force
Pictogram plus.png -90% rage given to players
Pictogram minus.png -60% movement speed


Unknown what the boss would have been used for, carries a powerful Flame Thrower that has a lethal 5x damage. Appears to use basic boss stats similar to Sergeant Crits or Captain Punch.


  • Giant Pyros have unused firing sounds for the Flamethrower (named giant_pyro_flamethrower_start.wav and giant_pyro_flamethrower_loop.wav).
    • On a related note, there are also unused flame particles within the game files that suggest that the flames from Giant Pyros would appear different from regular Flamethrowers.
  • Similar to other giants (except giant Medics), Giant Pyros have unused footstep sounds unique to them (named giant_pyro_step01-04.wav).
