    That achievement is only a 100 sandviches is called Konspicuous Konsumption. Don't Touch Sandvich is the one for killing 50 scouts with Natascha.

    I got "Don't touch sandvich" during the scoot update. I switched back to Sasha immediately after getting it because Sasha is superior in every way, even for killing scoots.

    Natascha is only good if you are with 2 Sasha equiped heavies.

    Then you are maximizing the time they can rape face.

    By itself, Natascha is a terrible weapon, Except in the hands of Biscuits Johnson. Thankfully I've not seen him in the servers for awhile, because bitch be makin me rage with Natascha

    I still maintain that Natascha is an excellent weapon if you have the team work to make use of it. It slows to an absolute crawl. Combine with jarate for complete team destruction.

    Why bother slowing an enemy to a crawl and having someone else finish him if you can just kill 2 enemies with Sasha in the same length of time?

    Because we are describing a hypothetical situation where a player is running across a window of opportunity to kill him which is just barely shorter than the length of time it would take to kill him with Sasha. Slowing them down, however, extends this window enough to kill them with Natascha, even given the reduced damage.

    Not if there are medics around or they duck behind some cover. Almost halting the movement of priority targets ensures a greater chance of actually killing them, it works really well with a sniper or soldier.

    See: final defensive stand on dustbowl.

    Offense loves poking their nose around the corner to see what's out there, and ducking back. Natascha can be a huge pain in the ass for these types of people.

    Yes. I am, of course, mostly talking about medium to long range fire. Obviously anything close range would get killed by sasha very quickly, but at longer distances there is generally plenty of time to move out of line of fire.

    This hypothetical situation occurs a lot less frequently than the hypothetical situation of, for example, facing an enemy heavy with Sasha equipped.

    EDIT: at long range a heavy is out of his element anyway, and trying to use Natascha like that would (or rather, should) end with the heavy getting sniped.

    So you can get a bunch of assists for Kollectivization. Or whatever that achievement is called. Also Don't Touch Sandvich.

    honestly the best thing about natascha is that nobody uses it

    so nobody sees it coming

    out of nowhere they start slowing down and before they get the chance to rethink their strategy they are dead

    Oh hey, you have a quick charging, powerful weapon that is great for close combat! Oh, you want to stand on 2fort battlements and spam arrows incase someone happens to walk out and into one? sweet!

    Oh hey, you have an awesome watch that lets you pick your moment to strike! And ..... you've been sitting there for three minutes. doing nothing.

    I sort of like using 'Tasha every once in awhile because people -freak the hell out- when they don't move normally. I wish this game had conc-nades, or something that created the same result.

    You'd think playing TFC all the time would deter you from pyro and lead you to scout or maybe soldier.

    Actually in TFC I rocked Engineer and Medic most of the time. I just love the little balls of chaos that you get when you catch a group of people off guard with a flamethrower. It's manic.

    Yea to be honest, medic was probably the best class in TFC.

    What's better than a medic who rocks a shotgun, infects the enemy team and can concussion jump?

    Seriously nothing is more battlemedic than the TFC medic.

    I'd literally be offense the whole time going for caps and infecting the enemy team on the way in/out.
