The Demoman is a class in the classic Team Fortress games. He is equipped with explosive weapons. While they aren't the most accurate weapons, they are quite powerful and very deadly in the right hands. He has decent armor, which helps him take a few hits, but the player shouldn't try to throw themselves in the middle of a firefight and expect to live. His two explosive weapons, the Grenade and Pipebomb Launcher, serve different roles; the Grenade Launcher is useful for fights with enemies in close quarters, while the Pipe bomb is a great weapon for setting traps on important objects. The Demoman is also capable of setting detpacks that can open (and sometimes close) alternative paths on a map.

Basic Strategy

• Learn to pipebomb jump.

• Reload regularly.

• Clear rooms with your grenades.

• The Grenade Launcher is great for taking out Sentry Guns. Try to bounce the grenades against a wall, to avoid taking damage from the Sentry Gun.
