Aw, he's so cute and little-- ow, he kicked me!

I'm the world's worst Spiper, so I usually run Sydney Sleeper- Jarate - Bushwaka for long-distance fights or Huntsman- Jarate - Bushwaka for CQC. I do assists and body shots, not proper sniping...

As a Soldier or Demoman, the stock weapons are so beautifully balanced it's a shame to use anything else (Buff Banner is acceptable if you have a competent team). Same goes for Heavy (though Sandvich is always nice) and Scout.

Demoknights... no. Just no.

Engineer is where I usually sink most of my time in. Frontier Justice is way too situational for my tastes so I just stick to the stock primary and secondaries. Wrenches, on the other hand... I usually run Southern Hospitality for defence and Jag/Gunslinger for offense.

The only thing you need for the Medic is the Übersaw. Accept no substitutes!

I don't play Pyro much so I can't really advise anyone on that.

I don't want to talk about my Spy gameplay. It's too horrible to even mention.

...contained in the comics and various media that surround the game. Have you seen any "Meet the team" videos?

Engineer, eh? It's my favourite class, actually. Nobody plays Engineer or Medic when we really need one on the team (usually there's four derpy spies running around and getting themselves killed instead) so I'm almost always seen as a support player. Pyro is fun too, but the W+M1 (walk forward and spam flamethrower) mentality is still strong with the new players. When they learn to airblast properly Pyros can curbstomp Soldiers and Demomen. Puff-and-sting (light enemy on fire, whack them with the crit-axe) still strikes fear into the hearts of many if executed by a good Pyro.

If your computer can handle it, TF2 is free to play. Just download the Steam client, download TF2 and you're good to go. Sure, you might only get 50 backpack slots for your weapons but the game is so worth it it doesn't even matter. All weapons are very well balanced and the only thing that separates new players from the old guard is skill.
