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.

Normal variants

Pyro

Icon	Name	Primary	Attributes
	Pyro	Flame Thrower	—

These robots are equipped with a Flame Thrower and attack up close. They may use their compression blast to deflect rockets, including those of Sentry Guns, but they will not use it to extinguish teammates on fire. When Giant Robots appear with Pyro robots, the Pyros will cluster near the giants at the beginning of the wave and eventually scatter. 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.

Flare Pyro

Icon	Name	Secondary	Attributes
	Flare Pyro	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.

Pyro Pusher

Icon	Name	Secondary	Attributes
	Pyro Pusher	Scorch Shot	100% crit chance  25% faster reload rate  Shots travel at 35% speed

Another less common variant wields a permanent crit-boosted Scorch Shot. They can reload faster but the flare travels 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
	Fast Scorch Shot	Scorch Shot	50% faster projectile speed  25% faster reload rate

This rare variant carries the Scorch Shot like the Pyro Pusher, but its flares travel much faster, faster than even a normal Scorch Shot flare.

Giant Robots

Giant Pyro

Icon	Name	Primary	Attributes
	Giant Pyro	Flame Thrower	3000 HP  +40% knockback resistance  -50% movement speed

Giant Pyro robots are equipped with a Flame Thrower and behave like their smaller counterparts.

Giant Flare Pyro

Icon	Name	Secondary	Hat	Attributes
	Giant Flare Pyro	Detonator	Old Guadalajara	Moves at the same speed as a regular Pyro  3000 HP  +40% knockback resistance  +70% faster firing speed

The Giant Flare Pyro robot wears an Old Guadalajara and is equipped with a Detonator, which can fire accurate shots at a faster rate. Also, they move at the same speed as a regular Pyro Robot, making them deadly if they get the bomb. They are the third fastest Giant in Mann Vs. Machine.

Bugs

• Pyro Robots can be set on fire with The Manmelter.

Unused content

• Two unused Giant Pyro Robot templates exist, one named "Giant Airblast Pyro". Its Degreaser only does 0.05x damage but pushes opponents with five times the force. The second is named "Chief Pyro" and is equipped with the default Pyro loadout, but is larger, has 55,000 HP, regenerates 500 health per second and its airblast pushes opponents with two times the force.
