The most absurd TF2 weapon rebalance video

Video Description

A test of a style of video I want to try! This is a video from creator Grouch that's been floating around the TF2 sphere recently and become rather infamous for the absurd rebalance ideas. Originally I wanted to dissect them with fellow weapon rebalance enthusiast FishStickOnAStick as a more serious analysis of what makes rebalances work and not. However, upon having more friends join the discussion and seeing more and more ridiculous rebalances, it became a lot more silly. Let me know if this is something you'd like to see more of! Original video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UixIn83h7m0 MY REQUEST TO YOU: Please do not harass Grouch over this video - in fact, do the opposite and check out his non-rebalance related stuff! I'm sure he knows by now that his ideas in this video are questionable, and the rest of his work is actually super solid. Everyone occasionally puts some weird takes on the internet (myself included), and although that can certainly warrant criticism, from what I've seen of Grouch in particular it's very much a standout in the greater scheme of his entire catalog.

The direction my main channel is heading is beginning to warrant higher and higher quality per video which I don't think quicker videos like this uphold very well. While this wouldn't have felt out of place on Great Blue 2-3 years ago while I was still experimenting quite a bit, nowadays I really want every upload on there to feel exciting rather than having a bunch of filler. That being said, these quicker videos are still a lot of fun to make, and the only reason I stopped doing them was for the quality reasons mentioned above. So my compromise is to use Blue's Stockpile (probably to be renamed soon) as a "parallel universe" channel that has videos more conceptually inline with my 2019-2022 uploads (at least before the "What If?"/stuff with friends started taking over).
