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 most projectiles (see 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 or 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.

Crit Pyro

Icon	Name	Primary	Attributes
	Crit Pyro	Flame Thrower	100% crit chance  +100% damage bonus  +50% movement speed

Icon	Name	Primary	Attributes
	Pyro	Flame Thrower	100% crit chance  +100% damage bonus  +50% movement speed

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 don't 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 in Caliginous Caper is named "Pyro".

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.

Flare Pyro(Type 2)

Icon	Name	Secondary	Attributes
	Pyro	Detonator	+60% fire rate bonus  +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 Pusher	Scorch Shot	100% crit chance  25% faster firing speed  25% slower reload  -65% projectile speed

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
	Fast Scorch Shot	Scorch Shot	30% faster projectile speed  25% faster firing speed

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

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 Pyros are very skilled at reflecting, so be careful if a weapon you have equipped with shoots projectiles.

Giant Flare Pyro

Icon	Name	Secondary	Hat	Attributes
	Giant Flare Pyro	Detonator	Old Guadalajara	3000 HP  +40% knockback resistance  +70% faster firing speed  -50% movement 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.

Bugs

• Pyro-bots think The Gas Passer is reflectable with compression blast, therefore may use compression blast when the thrown Gas Passer projectile is close to Pyro-bots.

Unused content

• Three 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, and the third is a variation of the Giant Flare Pyro but it wields a Scorch Shot that can knock players back with more force, fires 80% faster, moves 65% slower and does not wear the Old Guadalajara.
