Hel-lo everyone here today! I had some ideas for stuff on TF2, but we all know that I suck and wouldn't even get to send them to the team. Anyway! I decided, "Hey, why not make it into a little fic and let people send me ideas along the way?" So yeah. First up is the Pyro, one of my favorite classes in-game. I thought, "Theres a guy who shoots fire everywhere, so why isn't there a guy who freezes everyone to death?" And so, I present to you, the Cryo.


Meet the Cryo

Flamethrower: Frostthrower

Slot: Primary

(+) Replaces fire with an ice cloud which slows enemies down instead of burning them
(+) +20% Frost range
(+) Can't be frozen by other "Cryos"
(-) +10 Compression blast cost
(-) Fire can burn you and deals +15% damage to you

Mask: Polar Optic

Slot: Secondary

(+) Able to see disguised Spies (They have an aura of their real team's color)
(+) +20% Weapon change speed
(-) Being headshot by a Sniper kills you regardless of health or charge
(-) -10% Melee weapon damage
(=) You get a snowy filter to your vision

Axe: Arctic Tomahawk

Slot: Melee

(+) Minicrits enemies who are frozen
(+) +10% Swing speed
(+) May throw axe by holding right mouse button and releasing once fully charged
(-) No random critical hits
(-) Can't use axe until recollected from the ground / the victim's body
(-) -10% damage against other "Cryos"

Cosmetic: Cryogenic Fuel Tank

Fire needs fuel, so it makes sense that frost does too… right?

Cosmetic: Polar Bear Scarf

At least it's not from a real bear.

Cosmetic: Winter Gear

Pyros have firefighter suits, so why isn't this called a frostfighter suit?


Aaand there you have it! My custom item set for the Pyro. Yeah, not much was described as of visuals (and by "much", I mean anything), but hey, it's still a work in progress. Might edit it later. Oh, and send in your own ideas, preferably via PM... Please. I don't want another thing to happen like it did with my MC fic and OCs. Anyway, make sure that your items are balanced, too, cause I don't want "+500% damage" "100% crit rate" "Makes you invincible" Etc. So, without further delay...

Pace fuori, suckers!
