If you can't get Market Gardener crits to land, you suck at Market Gardening.

Well gee sorry for not being uber l33t mlg pro star_ rocket jumping competitive tf2 #1 winner

Because I have lined up a Market Gardener crit, but because of the way it works, I ended up

swinging and then hitting the ground at the very last frame of the animation so you do a measly 65 damage

The Market Gardener
Level 10 Shovel
Deals crits while the wielder is rocket jumping and for 0.5 seconds afterward
+5% damage done

-20% swing speed
No random critical hits


I really want this to happen. It'd be nice if the Market Gardener had some margin for error and also crit one-shot Soldiers and also wasn't a straight downgrade for people who aren't STAR_

Okay seriously though, I just want the Market Gardener's difficulty lowered just a notch. Just a little bit of breathing room. That's all I ask.



The Market Gardener is a difficult, yet highly rewarding weapon to use. I mean it makes you proud when you get crit doesn't it?

Well yeah, since it's almost impossible for average level players

No. Enough people use the gardener already, there's no need whatsoever for it to get easier to use

Well I'm sorry your main server is plr_hightower 24/7

If everyone could easily market garden it would be chaos. The whole point is that it takes skill. If you want to market garden, you put in the time to practice just like anything else. :P

The whole point is that I don't. Everyone tries to use market gardener on hightower, literally EVERYONE

because it's the only map where it's actually a valid tactic

not true, it just seems to be the best because the playing area is tall and not very wide, perfect for rocket jumping
However, it's a very effective tactic on a number of maps


I am now significantly happier than I was 20 minutes ago.

what did you trade for it?

what did you trade for it?
buds + 3 keys + ~2 more keys worth of stuff

stuff tier unusual and you overpaid.

I could only find 3 who were selling and none of them accepted 1 bud pure. Obviously my first unusual it going to be stuff tier. There's nothing wrong with overpaying for something you really want anyways.
