I say he went demo to try and cover up baby medic's reason for going scout. The excuse probably is they both wanted too try something new. But in reality...

The Medic/Heavy went Scout to catch the Heavy.
The Pyro went Demo to catch the Scout (who he appearently has feelings for).

Why? Because that scout is usually a medic. He wanted healz. Good demomen get the healz and ubers whenever you have a bunch of sentry guns to take down. Also, he is probably "into" that medic and wanted her attention.

I say Pyro was very ambicious - after he graduateded the Heavy's Pyro Training Course (HPTC) he wanted to gain more diplomas and titles - so now hes specializing in controlled demolition...

Maby the pyro switched to demo because their round as attackers was over, and they were defending this round. Thus, since pyros are more offensive, and demos more defensive, he swapped to demo.

Just a theory of course'.

The Pyro -> Demo thing probably has to do with the scout blushing in the last panel. What it is, i don't know.

You're all wrong! The Pyro is obviously a woman! (Not judging from this comic) It's too obvious these days...Maybe you ALL don't play TF2. There, I win. Where's my prize? :D
Wes

You said it wrong, Mr. "Sniper."

Maybe YOU don't play TF2.

Since chibi medic/heavy went scout, pyro went to Demo so that Heavy would teach them how to play their new classes, and then stick around for longer.

The pyro changed into a demoman to sticky jump, and be able to reach in time the exmedic/exheavy/now scout .
the same reason the girl changed into scout.

Tarage got it right with his photo note: Demo/pyro told Medic/Heavy/Scout "If you love him, let him go". Thus, the blushing in the last panal.
desu
almost 15 years ago
scripts are for noobs anyways. I don't use any and still rock the shit out as scout and piro.  Also I hope valve will ban all scripts whatsoever asap. The made changes are a good step towards this.

Pyro changed his class to Demo because after Chibi-Medic changed from Heavy to Scout the team was unbalanced. Pyro changed class in the interest of maintaining the Defensive Class balance on Red Team.

Pyro is a pimp even as a baby. How awesome is that? Also, pyro wants to be a demo 'cause under that mask is the real demo. You see, the pyro is a black scottish cyclops.

or he changed to Pyro because he actually got the fact that he can throw stickies/pipebombs/rockets/arrows back to sender and let them blow themselves up :D

He's going to bomb the train.  It's a lead-in to the next comic arc... Chibi 4 Dead!  Set in the train level.

Pyro changed cos' in an earlyer comic sniper is singing to the pyro that song... and the demo jumps about in the background in a pannel, in here 7th pannel has thew scout singing to the heavy, then pyro demo comes in. E.G a reference to the early comic i was talking about.

Chibi pyro switched to Demo because the Red Engie was holding a point with a sentry, and when he heard chibi Medic/Heavy/Scout was going to get Heavy, he didn't have time to change.

I think Nessmk2 has it right. Stickylaunch+stickytaunt.
He might be doing the chest pound and peace signs in the last two panels, but it's hard to tell without hands.

Why is medic-heavy-scout blushing in the last panel?
PT
almost 15 years ago
Pyro changed to demo, because he's after school, graduated, and demo has alcohol. Celebration! He already drank entire bottle.
Nessmk2
almost 15 years ago
I say he changed for a combo of stickyjumping to get there faster, and to do the stickylauncher (Spin, chest pound and peace-sign) taunt to say goodbye.

Baby Heavy/Medic/Scout is intensely adorable, I hope we get to see her again at some point. Maybe they end up joining Heavy's usual server or something.

Medic->Heavy went Scout to catch up faster...
So maybe Pyro went Demo to stickyjump to get there faster instead?
