Reasons why it shouldn't be banned

+Its fun to use (to me at least)
+Doesn't do too much damage
+you can only throw one every 30 seconds or something like that, so its not spammable.
+Is not game changing.
+Pretty much only useful for throwing down chokes hoping for a hit.

reasons why not to allow it:
-annoying red bleeding screen.
-Gives scout, an already powerful class, even more powah yo.

This post is hidden for scoring too low. Show post.

yeah the bleed screen is massively obscuring for people on dx8. the less bleed weaponry the better.

What if two scouts run it to mid and both launch it at the enemy demoman? One hit would do 54 damage, 2 hits could kill him/put him out of the fight. That would be pretty stupid.

it would definitely put him out of the fight to get heals, but It wouldn't kill him. Keep in mind that its 108 potential damage, He can still go get heals. Switching to the wrap assassin, throwing your bauble, and then switching back to your scattergun does give the other scouts a little window of opportunity to put some damage on you too. this getting really theorycrafty im sorry <3

If the wrap assassin didn't have an annoying bleeding screen would you guys be okay with it?

While it is fun to use, I don't really see any reason to allow it. It causes ~45 damage on hit regardless of range and then has a bleed effect, sure you can get heals and I wouldn't say it's as bad as the sandman, but should the scout really have something that allows for easy long range harassment every 30 seconds?

The less non-pyroflame after hit damage effects attached to melee the better. Boston Basher is this sort of wink wink nudge nudge thing so that scouts can build uber, but it's rare you see anybody take the risk of actually trying to plant bleed damage on somebody.

the bleed effects dont stack, the bleed just gets reset
