Demoman match-ups (Classic)
| Class | Strategy | ||
|---|---|---|---|
 Demoman |
vs |  Scout (match-ups) |
The Scout is a very easy class to kill, due to his low health pool and generally weak weapons. Your Grenade Launcher should make quick work of the Scout. You can also lay Sticky Traps to kill the enemy quickly. If you see one, he may be going for your Intelligence. Report him as soon as possible, and try to kill him. |
Demoman |
vs |  Sniper (match-ups) |
The Sniper is a really dangerous class to play against, mainly because he will stay out of your range. The Grenade Launcher and Stickybomb Launcher are nearly ineffective at mid to long range. If you can, close the gap between you and the Sniper. That will help in eliminating the Sniper much faster. Due to the Sniper's long-range combat abilities, he will generally want to kill you. |
Demoman |
vs |  Soldier (match-ups) |
Soldiers have the largest health pool of any of the classes. With 100 health and 200 armor, he easily towers over all classes. He is very powerful with his Rocket Launcher and Nail Grenades. As a Demoman, you should try to damage him as much as possible. If you can, get help from your teammates. |
Demoman |
vs | Demoman (match-ups) |
The Demoman is also a very dangerous class to go up against. He may try to do everything you do, so be careful. The Grenade Launcher is very powerful. Sticky Traps can also be laid for maximum damage. Detpacks can have a certain time set to detonation. This time can be 5, 20, or 50 seconds. You can set Detpacks via the Command Menu. |
Demoman |
vs |  Medic (match-ups) |
The Medic is generally an easy class to deal with. His low health and armor makes him weak. However, his Medkit is very powerful to both teams. An enemy Medic can disease and panic among your team. The disease is spread by contact with other players. You require a Medic in order to get rid of the disease. The Medic's weapons are all powerful, so be careful. |
Demoman |
vs |  Heavy (match-ups) |
The Heavy's slow movement speed should make him easy to hit. However, that is not always the case. The Heavy's large amount of firepower with his Assault Cannon makes him a moderately hard target. |
Demoman |
vs |  Pyro (match-ups) |
The Pyro is one of the more moderately hard classes a Demoman can face. A Pyro can use her Flamethrower or her Incendiary Cannon. She can destroy your stickybomb traps with the Incendiary Cannon or destroy your detpacks. She can be bad news for you, but combined with the power of your team, her low health pool means she can be eliminated easily. |
Demoman |
vs |  Spy (match-ups) |
A Spy can be an annoying pest for your team to deal with. His backstab can instantly kill you and his Feign Death can easily trick your teammates by laying on the ground and getting up when they aren't watching. But, your sticky traps and Grenade Launcher can easily Spy-Check any teammates, due to its high damage. |
Demoman |
vs |  Engineer (match-ups) |
The Engineer can be a serious threat to a Demoman, but spam can easily get rid of buildings. Your Stickybomb Launcher is most suited for destroying Sentry Guns. A couple of pipebombs should destroy the sentry easily. But be wary, as the Engineer could use his Dispenser to blow you up. |
Demoman |
vs |  Civilian (match-ups) |
You cannot play as the Demoman during the Escort game mode. |
