Pyro Update Predictions/Desires

With the pyro update around the corner, do you guys have any less obvious predictions/desires that you want from the update?

I want the quickiebomb to be rebalanced into something more useful. I also think the update is coming out next Thursday; you heard it here folks

i think pyro is either going to be either changed in a way so subtle you can't even tell it was changed or ridiculously overpowered

  • Release somewhere at the start of July
  • Improvements to the flame particles. Might make flames look differently and will look very goofy until we get used to it
  • Pyro is rewarded for reflecting (something like the "new" heal for extinguishing). ammo gain on reflect damage?
  • Airblast also removes Milk/Jarate
  • Detonator no longer deals a ton of damage to yourself. You will have an additional opportunity to fail a gap jump
  • Buffs to the Rift weapons (vulcano fragment and sun-on-a-stick). Still never used.
  • Razorback skin of one of those long tribal masks. If not then I'm making one myself. copyright claimed pls no steal idea, its mine
  • New unusual effects created by community members that were submitted to the workshop like 4 years ago
  • Forced graphic settings will remain in comp MM making any improvements obsolete

matchmaking will be better with placement elo etc. but still be riddled with hackers making it still unplayable
viewmodel limit is upped to something like 80 or 90 with more animation "fixes"
configs still limited
pyro gets a speed buff and base damage buff, new primary that will be retarded OP/annoying for the first 3 days
new jungle map drops everyones frames a good bit, but fun to play in pubs (i hope)
scout gets indirectly buffed again
crossbow nerfed
jarate nerfed
crit a cola nerfed
gunslinger nerfed
more useless weapons buffed, still useless
new skins aren't as tacky

TobPyro is rewarded for reflecting (something like the "new" heal for extinguishing). ammo gain on reflect damage?

He already gets like 700 rewards for reflecting, such as not receiving damage, dealing minicrits, and knocking people into the air for his stupid crit autism

  • Flame mojo will be fixed and range will be overall increased (oh god)
  • Airblast will lose the stunlock entirely
  • Flame particles will be made smaller to require more aim but their travel path will make aiming really weird
  • Reserve shooter will be nerfed but still OP
  • New secondary for pyro turns out to be inferior to the shotgun like everything else
  • matchmaking will get improvements on the technical side but still have no class limits
  • some good nerfs to OP weapons will happen but one random weapon will be buffed to OP-ness for no reason, taking bets on which one

I really honestly just hope they fix the annoying as hell "I'm running away from the pyro and get airblasted and that stops me even though it should push me further away" crap.

With how long this "Pyro update" has been 'delayed' or hoped for, since the Pyro vs Heavy Campaign, I'm fairly certain Pyro is getting a whole lot of analysis from the developers and from other feedback being provided that will lead to balances in the way flames register, airblasts register, weapon changes that give risk/reward mechanics to Pyros that can punish them for being very strong flank classes.
