By the looks of the achievements listed, and the icon for one of the 2 achievements, the Scout will get some sort of 'First kill' crit boost. In arena only? Do all classes get the crits? How long to they last. Etc .

First Blood - make the first kill on the arena
First Blood pt.2 - kill 5 enemies using "First blood" bonus.

Also

Out of the Park - Bat the enemy so he flies 25 meters

What the hell

I think when I spotted the Pyros fail gun in the sniper video was the best spot ever.

Scout's gonna be sick ye
I think you fail to see the fatal flaw in that plan.

Scout can't double jump with the Sandman.

Switch weapons?

But the real flaw is this:
Any decent Sniper will put a bullet through you're head while you attempt to hit that pathetic ball at him.

If you look at the pic of the double payload map, the two carts are facing the opposite way. Race to get to the other teams start point?

I don't see how double PL is going to be a challenge as long as you can get some team work.

Get two Scouts and a Pyro (or something) on your cart, then get the rest of the team to keep moving between the two carts, protecting yours and stopping the enemy's.

And if the other team has the same strategy?
None of the maps are that hard if you are on a team with decent team work.

Then the two skirmish teams will meet up and fight while the Scouts/Pyro keep pushing.

A Scout with the weapon equiped cannot double jump. Ever.

It would be so unbalanced if you could just switch weapons to double jump.

IMO equipped means holding it in your hand

Dude, why not wait until the update comes out to discuss the balance of the new shit.

As of now, it's all just speculation.

The only downside is not being able to double jump, if you could avoid that by just pressing Q, who would use the regular bat?
