Hi Banning Hammer,
In light of your advocacy in recent "Scouts Need a Buff" threads, I figure you are more likely than not a fellow scout. I've added you as a contact in game, in order to include you in the Scout Registry:

Strangely, you're stats appear as all zeros in my Leaderboards. Is it possible that you Ban Hammered me?

Exciting! This would suggest that the Devs have acknowledged a problem with Scout balance or role. Fingers crossed :-)

Lots of fun and huge potential, but not currently viable at a competitive level ... yet ;-) |

I love CEOPyrex videos. Approaching 7000 kills, he's among the standing Scout Community's most experienced killers. And his KDR of 3.05 places him among the top 15% of deadly Scoutly Dusters.
One issue I have with Pyrex tutorials, however, is that they rarely demonstrate Scout combat versus hardened (i.e. Proto) opponents. In the majority of his videos, Pyrex runs about in Proto gear and lays waste to unorganized, ill-equipped opponents in Pubs. Thus, I searched his archive for videos in hopes of finding a demonstration of scoutly prowess versus well-fitted opponents, namely those often found in PC.
My first find was this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1XrzIA7ovE
And later I found this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8u92DeqkTIY
Should you watch the latter video, you'll note note the following:
- Pyrex faces Advanced Tier opponents. Who runs Advanced gear in PC!?
- Pyrex uses one of the best shotguns in the game, the Duvolle Specialist, with KB/M.
- Even running the Specialist variant, Pyrex's Proto Scout Suit can't fit a sidearm. Only room for an Uplink
- Pyrex -- -- one of the best scouts in the game -- goes 9 kills to 7 deaths. Against ADV-Tier opponents.
