Soldier	vs	Scout	Los 2 son fuertes a corta distancia. Salta con Cohetes a lugares altos para seguir su movimiento errático, y le puedas disparar desde las alturas. Usa el Lanzacohetes para que la onda expansiva le pueda hacer algo de daño porque seria muy difícil darle un golpe directo. Si esta demasiado lejos o es difícil de golpear con los cohetes, cambie a su Escopeta. Algunos Scouts usarían weapon heckling para forzarte a cambiar de arma, si tienes buena puntería la Escopeta puede ser mejor que el Lanzacohetes a corta distancia. Solo usa tu arma cuerpo a cuerpo como ultimo recurso ya que ni el aumenta de velocidad del Ecualizador no te permitirá alcanzar al Scout. Mientras que el Impacto Directo te permite matar a un Scout al Instante (a corta distancia) pero la reducción de la onda expansiva hace difícil pegarle un cohete
Soldier	vs	Soldier	When in a deathmatch against another Soldier, you want to make each rocket count. Use nearby cover to avoid his splash damage while aiming carefully yourself. Switch to the Shotgun instead of reloading your Rocket Launcher to finish him off. Having a height advantage is very important; damaging yourself with one rocket during a rocket jump is worth avoiding two of his. Rocket jumping over the enemy Soldier will not only allow you to rain down rockets, but also force him to land direct hits, a moderately difficult task with the Rocket Launcher. If the enemy Soldier is actively rocket jumping, you can rocket jump into the air yourself, use precise aim to land an aerial, or fire a rocket where he is going to land.
Soldier	vs	Pyro	A Pyro who is skilled with the compression blast can render your rockets useless. At medium to long range, harass an enemy Pyro with your Shotgun. Once he gets close, continue to use the Shotgun or shoot rockets at his feet; the closer he is, the harder it is to reflect your rockets. If need be, you can rocket jump to retreat and put some distance between the two of you. Although a Pyro will almost always fight you at close range, using your Cuerpo a cuerpo weapon against the class that specializes in close range combat is obviously not a good idea.
Soldier	vs	Demoman	In terms of one-on-one encounters, the two of you are pretty evenly matched when it comes to damage output. At longer distances, a Demoman can easily shell you with grenades and charged Stickybombs. Your Rocket Launcher and Shotgun are easier to aim than his Grenade Launcher or Stickybomb Launcher, so stay within medium range and keep a direct line of sight to maintain the advantage. Like when fighting an enemy Soldier, rocket jump to gain a height advantage while making it difficult for the Demoman to land direct hits. Even if you don’t have the Shotgun equipped, a well placed rocket can move his Sticky traps. If the Demoman decides to rush you down with the Chargin’ Targe, use the knock back from a rocket to pop him into the air and cancel his charge.
Soldier	vs	Heavy	Don’t engage an enemy Heavy if his Minigun is already spun up; you will lose the ensuing one-on-one fight. He is slow, so harass him with your Rocket Launcher from high ground and around obstacles while denying him a direct line of sight. If his Minigun is not already revved up, you should be able to defeat him at close range by unleashing all your rockets and maybe a few Shotgun blasts. He is a relatively large and slow target, so the Direct Hit can be particularly effective against him. Only rocket jump to escape fights with a Heavy; you can’t quite afford the self-damage and the hitscan Minigun can still easily hit you in midair.
Soldier	vs	Engineer	An Engineer by himself is an easy target. Your Rocket Launcher allows you to destroy Engineer buildings from a safe distance. If the Engineer stays near his nest, target him or his Dispenser first to prevent any repairs. Ensure that you have good cover to duck in and out of, especially if the Engineer is using his Wrangler. Once the Engineer is away or dead, the Sentry Gun is simple to destroy. If you must directly take on a Nivel 3 Sentry Gun, it’d be best to come back with a friendly Medic.
Soldier	vs	Medic	A lone Medic is an easy target. The Medic is a high priority target, especially when he’s healing his teammates. Use your Rocket Launcher’s splash damage to attack both him and his patient at once. You can rocket jump above and past the Medic’s allies to dive-bomb him. Even if you just make him retreat, you are denying his team a major source of healing.
Soldier	vs	Sniper	Your slow speed and high damage output make you a prime target for any Sniper. It is best to avoid open areas that Snipers often watch over. If you must directly approach an enemy Sniper, move erratically and harass him with a few rockets to mess up his aim. Rocket jump to quickly close the distance and nab an easy close range kill.
Soldier	vs	Spy	Your slow speed and tendency to deal heavy damage make you a prime target for any enemy Spy. Constantly be aware of your surroundings and any suspicious teammates. The splash damage from your Rocket Launcher and the spread of your Shotgun can aid in revealing a Cloaked Spy. Once he is discovered, the fight is simple.
