Sounds almost entirely devoid of emotion - like he's reading a script.

#11 Demoman middles in Mentoring

Make sure you don't waste the whole rollout sticky sniping, and are actually ready to push forward with a few stickies loaded across the point as your team goes on the offensive.

Tunneling the other demo on rollout is bad. Get some good damage on him and let your roamer and/or scout(s) clean him up later, then focus your damage on their aggressive players.

Don't put yourself in a position where you are pretty much out of the fight early regardless of health, and one that your team can't help you. A good example is badlands choke; if you run behind the train immediately you could still die pretty easily - it's a bad position to be in as a defender imo. I would opt for more being aggressive across point or dropping into valley, or even just playing from window.

I also have an old mentoring post on ozfortress that is still somewhat relevant when I played demoman, but some points are kinda eh these days.

At middle what players should i focus on damaging?

A general priority for targets is usually demo > forward players (usually an aggro soldier) > scouts (though as i said, this is general and definitely isn't a correct priority, priority changes all the time during a rollout).
Is there any specific way to aim pipes?

As far as rollout goes, should i be focussing on getting to middle faster than the enemy demoman, getting to mid on really high hp, or trying to get a balance of both?

The alternative is a slow rollout on some maps (for eg badlands) where you are playing from window; you're pretty much not going to take any damage from there, problem being you're not in the best position to do much damage.
How do i deal with secondary soldiers that suicide jump at me besides hitting the midair or placing a sticky at their landing location? I find i struggle to deal with those players.

This is a very rough guide but my stickying usually consists of: medkit > catwalk > right gap > their crates (this is usually for a standard, not 'american' rollout). Running a scout high should usually demolish a jumping soldier.

Do good demoman have a limit in regards to how much ammo they use to output damage, so that they always have some spare for emergency? If so, what is the limit, or is it entirely situational?

All of these questions come down to personal playstyle. There are some general 'guidelines', but the more you play the class will lead you to your own 'right' ways of doing things.

Hope that helped.

MSE works well, and is free. I haven't used one for years, but I pretty much always recommend this if one wants to use an AV software

G400S is pretty good for those with big hands. Kana is a little bit smaller than the Sensei.

#19 Looking at buying a new mouse in Hardware
yttriumWatskyWell then why ask for our help if you know so much about miceI'm totally open to new suggestions to see if there are any mice I missed, and I also value all of your opinions as TF2 players; it just irks me when I have a specific requirement people skip over. It's like telling someone to go with an AMD GPU because they're performing better in the price/performance sector when they're looking for a card for a CUDA course in college.

Get a mouse that has buttons and moves across your desk and allows you to do the things. Sheep is "best scout in the world" and uses a G9x "Shit tier". I use a Steelseries Sensei RAW (also "shit tier")

go figure

While you're at it, get some Cashews of Chaos.

Might be able to help with an interview if it's on the Friday or Saturday. I've helped a friend with something similar to this a few years ago, so I have a rough idea.
