This guy's favorite animated franchise is The Minions, you can tell he's based

Pro tip: When you have the brass beast, consider bringing a shotgun, giving you a more mobile alternative while still allowing you to dish out some serious damage.

I love how this guy not only tackles Heavy's secondaries, but also prioritizes giving your Heavy a balanced and nutritious diet. Truly an example of what all Heavy mains should be.

"Medic, get the banana" medic: gets the banana "Potassium"

Man, that's such a cool idea for a video. I love how heavy tries out all these different foods!

I think i’m the only person who prefers the Banana over the sandwich as medic. Especially in pubs where I can’t rely on my team to keep me alive, having even a small medkit much more often Is usually just fine if not better for longer fights than the sandwich

It's funny how the second banana is arguably the best heavy item in the "pyro update"

The banana is actually really good at keeping medics free of afterburn and other damage other time effects due to you basically being able to spawn a small health kit every 10 seconds.

Today I was playing heavy and ate the banana while there was a medic healing me, i did not notice him, when I ate it, he looked so betrayed, stopped healing me, and died to a scream fortress spell, I felt so guilty

0:53 sir, i do not doubt that you are infact a heavy main but i must object to this, heavy is a strong man, not a fat man, under the layer of fat, heavy is just all muscles real life strong men also looked much like heavy, having a big gut and huge muscles, it would be safe to assume heavy weapon expert does infact exercise also like half of his taunts are work out related.

I'm early. Finally somebody acknowledges that the Family Business is amazing.

“What all my friends at the gym say” Hahahahahahaha. Elmaxo you have failed no irony october.

I like how the consolation prize was better than all three of pyros unlocks

heavy having a phd in russian literature makes him more of a doctor than medic currently is. ..but that means nothing to how much of an alpha man he is when he eats that steak.

The panic attack (or shotfun as I like to call it) and fists of steel synergise really well in my experience. The switch speed buff makes going from fists of steel to shotgun as quick as stock fists, allowing you to safely close in for some hefty meatshots. I like pairing these with the brass beast, because both these weapons almost kinda fill the same safe positioning niche that it desperately needs

I remember one time I was in a server with a Heavy who only used the shotgun. He absolutely wrecked face. Whoever he was, he was so good that even not using a main wasn't enough of a handicap

nice choice of transition song, i guess the person who suggested it had a great music taste!!

as heavy main, i always go with the second banana. Its super conveineint for how fast it recharges, true it may not give as much health to others but you can still get your health back up pretty good in a short amount of time

Medic main here: a banana can often be enough to help us out in a pinch. A small health kit can put out fire just as well as medium can, and self healing is a lot quicker than you might think. Plus, if I’m busy healing someone else or ubering, it’s good to know you can eat and I can still rely on your food for the next 30 seconds

Small correction here, The sandvich heals 400 and not 300hp. Meaning he can even heal to full health, while getting hit

I personally prefer running the stock shotgun. I’m pretty good at connecting my shots with it, and it’s reliable damage

I unironically use the shotgun on Heavy. I actually know where health kits are and like actually being able to fight back against demomen.

it really depends on what's going on in the game, as some situations work better with different secondaries. pocket medic - sandvich equipped monkey - banan equipped solo heavy - fishcake (none of that dalokos here) running the brass beast - any shotgun equiped

Shot guns are helpful in keeping enemies away on low ammo until getting an ammo pack

Love to see more Heavy mains around! Specifically more Heavy Content creators :D!

As a heavy main, nice video! I agree with all picks on the tier list

You're a bloody legend, that's all I have. Keep up the great work!

The chocolate and the gloves of running urgently have been my go to for years, makes those 20 second respawn times on some defense maps and the trek back to the front lines a lot less tedious at the expense of viable melee and a second weapon, pairs pretty well with the tomislav

ima just say, chocolate all the way. Gives medic less need to babysit you, the extra health is invaluable in some engagements (the times I've been dropped to under 50HP using the chocolate and thought "Wow I would've died using any other secondary") and the extra healing you get from healthpacks is a nice bonus. Plus with the fist of steel I can just walk in front of a sentry and laugh (a level 2 sentry will deal 8 x 16 damage per second to a 300HP heavy (8 x 16 = 128DPS, 300HP heavy is dead in under 2.4 seconds) OR it would deal 8 x 10 damage per second to a 350HP FOS heavy (8 x 10 = 80 DPS, 350HP heavy lives for nearly 4.4 seconds). Sure it'd be dumb to just walk into a sentry line of sight and I can't think of too many reasons you'd do it, but you can! Anyway, joking aside, I do love the chocolate and think it gets a really bad wrap for what is a potent but balanced sidegrade to the sandvich. If there was 1 or 2 changes I'd give it, I'd make it so the HP bonus last a bit longer (30 seconds isn't that long to keep on needing to eat it) and/or make eating it faster (cause 100HP really shouldn't take a full 4 seconds). Wish more people realised that it's a competent secondary. Also it pairs well with the quick fix cause then you can overheal to 425.

LOVE YOUR VIDEOS DONT STOP MAKING THEM THESE VIDEOS ARE FIRE

Excellent video Hellmaxo

Elmaxo: *Mentions all the lunchboxes* Fishcake: Uh… guys?

elmaxos delivery and style have gotten better and better since i subbed.... never fall into one niche my friend u got quality delivery explore as much as you want. ill keep watching

The Dalokohs bar is great, and just because I have a server-clearing one doesn't mean I'm biased

5:48 Recent bug fix: "fixed the crash caused by Sniper trying to eat his rifle." This guy warned us of the future!

Another great video, keep it up!

Underrated content creator spotted (insane)

0:08 I thought that all of those logos where soldier… I have been taken completely off Gard.

Imagine if they actually added an insulin injection as a lunchbox item for heavy.

Love it El Maxo!

the amount of puns in this video is amazing

1:16 "IM ON FIREEEE" *nom nom nom intensifies*

3:46 "max the fluffy boi"

I think the weezer quip is the best transition ever.

elmaxo - quality content in under ten minutes.

Nice video man :D

Crazy commitment on this guy

Wow I didn't realise how much your channel has exploded over this past year

Chocolate is best for going in alone and if you find a wild medic you can still prevent them from dying

Waiting until 12 at night to watch a elmaxo video

The Dollakas bar is heavys best secondary weapon because it’s the only strange I have

Nice video you deserve more subs

this is comedy gold, love it

Team plasma music made me happy

mishearing: "little known fact about the elmaxo channel is that well i'm actually a hitman"

One neat thing with the dahlokos bar is that you can live 2 150 damage quickscope headshots without a medic, making it an effective tool to deal with those pesky sniper bots in 1v1s

I just came up for a new heavy consumable. Its basically just 4 sandvitches in a lunchbox that takes 4 times longer to charge but you can share it with more than 1 person

Very cool video thank u el primo :)

When the heavy throws the banana, enemies should slip

excellent editing and music from the better pokemon games, looking forward to more of your content good sir!

" I will convince you why the Buffalo Steak Sandvich" It doesnt heal you,thus its bad lunch item,banana for life

instructions unclear minigun devoured

I can confirm. Dalokoh bars made my primary insulin

Kurt Cobain musta not heard Elmo’s tidbit about eating shotguns…

Nice music choice

My man was way ahead of his time with the minion joke

I may be the only person to say this, but i have a preference to the buffalo steak Sandvich. For a few reasons. 1 the speed boost lets you run to the front lines faster 2. It encourages you to not be greedy and help teammates, since it does heal them the same a normal Sandvich does. And since you can't eat it for yourself, you feel more inclined to help your team out 3. It's funny as heck getting a group of 5 heavies on steak punching the crap out of everybody 4. It's raw steak. Need I say more? 5. Combining it with the KGB is amazing. Pick a weak target like a Scout and get the 5 second actual crit buff, then just go to town. Once you have the KGB boost active, you can even beat up a demoknight.

5:46 sniper didnt listen to this psa...

Never played a lot of games, including tf2… but i love to watch videos about games

Correction, the best heavy secondary is the base jumper

Man, the steak is like the beserk power up from doom

3:20 Literally just remove the cooldown, and make it to where you have to eat it again when you drop below 300 hp for the max health buff again Boom, perfectly fine solid food item

As a diabetic you saying type one was accurate

Great video man, love the humor. Any chance we might see a vid on something like the detonator?

IMO this is your best video so far, i loved the jokes

So you were the fat scout dominating me on a halloween server

3:30 yep. as a type 1 diabetic I can confirm

Alternate title: The Sanvich vs the second banana

i totally agree on this

Banana is using (i think) because it's free consolation prize, for some missions. So if you sold secondary u always can use free banana

I'm not a Heavy Main, but I'd consider the Buffalo Steak Sandvich a C tier option since it allows you to reach mid on 5CP or specific maps in Payload with a long distance to trek since it does bring you up to 104% from 77% and can wear off around the time you reach the point while being a Medium health kit for your team.

Dalohkohs Stan for life

You are the best tf2 youtuber. Let this compliment go to your head!

1:58 Ayyy

We all though what come after the pyro update is the heavy update... rip it's been 4 years

my medic doesnt even look at my sandvich and now he is dead

There’s pretty much no reason to not run the banana if you are able to position it well enough. Sandvich is the most popular, but as a heavy main, even if the banana didn’t exist i would use the dalokohs most of the time because of how incredibly long the recharge is on the sandvich (lasting longer than most battles would).

Personally for me I would put the banana on S tier and keep the sandvich above the banana since I feel that the banana is basically like a on demand health pack where ever u go and how it basically refreshes fully after u get in combat and out and it could also be ok to use if u have a med pocketing since u can just protect them but meds usually don’t exist in pubs and even if they do they most likely are pocketing their friends.

The second banana is super good because it can help you in situations where you need to heal fast and normally with the sandwich you”ll be dead because of the cooldown.

1:57 Heavy with glass kinda looks like David Bautista

2:30 OMG THATS ME LOL HIIII

My fellow heavy main brother. Do you too get acused of not existing, even while you're mowing people down or in their face with a frying pan? Im conflicted wether it saddens me or i find it absolutely hilarious.

I’m pretty sure people keep forgetting this but banana has a 10 second recharge it might heal 30 HP but sandwich takes 30 seconds to recharge and it only heal 70 or more while the banana can heal up to 90 HP no matter of seconds so I don’t know why people keep putting the banana in the second tier I mean also I can heal 200 HP but that’s just my opinion

As something of an independent heavy player, I've always preferred the banana over the sandvich.

Thanks for being good to steak i have that

Heavy’s best secondary is this German fella named Medic

DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF A BANANADIN!

sandvich, discussion over

I think the chocolate bar would be more used if it had a faster eating time. Like, you’d imagine someone eating a chocolate bar faster than a prepared sandwich or a banana, right?

Family business or Shotgun for fat scout or brass beast, it's your choice of preference. Banana if you have a pocket medic because you can toss it more often to keep your medic alive under heavy fire, while leaving them to their natural Regen between fights. Sandwich for using on yourself
