@Perico-Man the exact behavior would be up to Valve to program themselves

So, if I don't have sticky bombs on the map, it's the player who's going to explode, right?

Worms when they die be like.

do some people just not read or watch the video?? you can't use option A to peek around walls because you are already locked in to detonating your stickies. it's basically just pressing rmb but on a delay

I like that people on here are complaining about how it's overpowered to do the stickies version cause you can see around the corner, completely ignoring that
1. You can do this with any looping taunt (most notably, the quiet high five that has no indication you're there, no audio cue, nothing) and can instantly untaunt from
2. This taunt is not a looping taunt, it has a >fixed delay< built into it

It'd be just as luck based as any taunt kill to do either the sticky version and the kamikaze version.

There were taunt options on the workshop page of the Texan Trickshot but only one was added, so if valve were to choose one, they'd probably choose the Suicide taunt if at all. This can actually be beneficial in scenarios such as Medieval when everybody is on the point. Demoman doesn't have any other explosive weapon taunts, and the caber requires you to charge in order to deal any substantial damage, but this seems like it'd genuinely be kind of OP against people grouped up because they're guaranteed to die rather than just take splash.

How would option A work with the Scottish Resistance?

if only this taunt had an achievement where you place all eight stickies on the 2fort bridge and detonate them all with this taunt

In order to make the taunt more balanced it should have a longer start till he detonates

Being able to get while seeing what's behind a corner is terrible idea. Kamikaze version can give unfair advantage (read p2w) in rare cases, as stock Demo have no such taunts.

It would be more balanced to detonate stickies with option A, but kamikaze attacks with option B would be funny. Which one is more important is up to you. Definitely my favorite taunt kill on the workshop so far!

It's a really cool taunt but option B seems semi "pay-to-win" because you'd normally have to have the Ullapool Caber (or a sword) to taunt kill

cute, but option A seems terrible for gameplay purposes. being able to see around corners with the third person view is poor design. Self detonation is much more in-line with the established taunts.

This is perfect!

okay boomer

no this is not good at all

COOL TAUNT valve needs to stop being lazy and add something cool like this

Its such a shame that Valve removed the ability to detonate stickies while taunting, so I would really love to see it with option A get added in

Honestly, it's the best way I could see special kill taunts be added into a game: it is very predictable(Some had problem with ramming taunt for Heavy because it starts like his default one), it is interacting with already established entities(Stickies) or doesn't give you full-on advantage(Kamekaze style) and it still has mocking/authentic potential(Small gags on spawn would be epic with this thing and it would be very envious to see someone make something cool with it or infuriating to witness something stupid done with it).
I like it.

I think the only way for this to be added is death option A

Death option A is the way to go honestly, it'd be a really cool taunt kill

how shoul I feel about this?

Death Option A would not cause an advantage problem if there is any I will vote for this

Wait so would it actually, work, ingame? Would Valve have to make some code themselves or is everything ready just waiting to be added? Becouse if its works, that is sick

Death Option A is perfect honestly; you're not paywalling a tauntkill, so much as you're adding a taunt that also happens to have a secret function like RPS does for Saxton Hale.

I really like the stickybomb functionality, but it's gonna have to be a no from me for the self-detonate option.

wow

i choose a

Death Option A would be the most ideal, since it's not exactly a kill taunt but more of a gameplay-functionality being re-used as a taunt, being detonating stickies. If the taunt only detonates what is placed, then yeah, this is perfectly balanced.

I disagree with taunt kills behind a paid taunt, but this is an exception as it strikes a perfect balance. It's purely luck as you can't really tell if your timing will be right and your stickies will be detonated in case you miss them, having you to place it again.

My only gripe is regarding people who wish to use this taunt WITHOUT triggering the stickies. I can see that being a problem.

Taunt kills should not be behind a pay wall

Forced. Object out of the ground.

Honestly this taunt would have been pretty cool even without the taunt-killing aspect, the detonate stickies is just *chef's kiss* tho

I prefer the stickybomb detonation version and also think it would be absolutely awesome.

Did somebody say boom?

Suicide bomber please!

This is gonna go crazy with the sticky jumper

Oh I hope the self det is whats used in game. Demo having his own version of the equalizer taunt would be goated.

i'm sorry but the tf2c dynamite is my top explosive related taunkill but this is also pretty neat kinda

i can already see people kill binding to this with sticky jumper

been seeing a lot of these "kill taunts" lately. not complaining though

Everything you see in the video is purely a suggestion to Valve
But I am glad you like the idea

at first i was like "huh, dont see how this is a kill taunt, this seems kinda boring", but then i see the whole thing about how you can self detonate with it AND use it to trigger stickies? honestly might be kind of an OP Taunt in some ways, but at the same time i love it, and must marvel at just how this could even be done.
