Characteristics[]
The Flamer is a pyromaniac infantry that shoots a short-ranged flamethrower which melts enemy units to pieces. This unit is great at neutralizing outposts since it deals damage over an area.
Advantages
- Flamer's high rate of fire makes it great for placing next to an enemy outpost to quickly neutralize it.
- Best used when placed on the backside of slow-moving units such as Socketables and Artillery.
Disadvantages
- Have a very short range, so cannot walk into an enemy line effectively.
- Are ineffective against light units and Mechs.
Good Loadouts
- Works well with other melee infantry such as Butcher.
- Can be used in conjunction with any high damage dealing units, or outpost neutralizers.
Notes[]
The Flamer does damage in bursts, and can hit multiple targets at once. Therefore, it is best to place them near a clump of enemy units. They are also a good infantry for cheesing an outpost.
Trivia[]
As confirmed by Carbon Games, the Flamer alludes to the Pyro from Team Fortress 2.
