Pictured: Lazy Purple defending his sentry with nothing but his body.


  • "How it FEELS to play Spy," the beginning of Lazy's most popular series.
    • "If you ask me, it's because you get to feel like a sneaky motherfu-"
    • The part where the Engineer taunts Lazy because his back's to a wall, rendering him immune to a Back Stab. Purple initially laments that "there is no way to kill someone when their back is against a wall as Spy", but the camera keeps focusing on his gun...
    • The secret weapon for dealing with spies: voice chat. Alternatively, turn around.
      LazyPurple: Good players are always looking for something to do. When they're not in combat, their priorities look something like:
      1. Don't get backstabbed note 
      2. Don't get headshot
      3. MEEEEEDIIIIIC
      When the fighting STARTS, though, their priorities look more like:
      1. Shoot gun.
      2. Dodge boolets.
      3. Say thanks after every kill. note 
    • LazyPurple and the Spy backstabbing each other at the end.
  • "How it FEELS to play Scout." Note the numerous Sonic the Hedgehog references.
  • "How it FEELS to play Heavy." The main focus for a good chunk of the video is around the Heavy's two main counters...
    • Chapter 1: oh my god how is spy everywhere at once
    • Chapter 2: how is it fair that they can shoot you from far away
    • Lazy shows an example of why you should not engage the Heavy without a plan. The dialogue in this example is just plain out hilarious.
      Blu Pyro: Hey, guys, there's a Heavy at our cliff.
      Blu Soldier: Don't worry, Pyro, he's no match for me- *Dies*
      Blu Pyro: Oh ye gods, no! Don't worry, Soldier, I'll- *Dies*
      Blu Engineer: Not to worry, I've got this under contr- *Dies*
      • Lazy Heavy taunting the deceased Blu, calling them babies before dying by a Blu Heavy. But the Blu Heavy is shown to be frustrated with his teammates, agreeing with Lazy Heavy that his entire team is BABIES!
        Lazy Heavy: All of you are BABIES! Who sent all these BABIES!? *Gets shot down by a Blu Heavy* I am dead.
        Blu Heavy: *Screams in pure frustration* My entire team is BABIES!
    • The entire "how to position yourself against a Heavy" segment.
      LazyPurple: Hey you!
      Sniper: Me?
      LazyPurple: Yes, you, lad! I'm here to teach you how to position yourself against a Heavy.
      Sniper: Thanks, mate!
      (a hand comes down and moves the Sniper directly in front of a Heavy with a revved-up minigun)
      Sniper: Okay.
      LazyPurple: This is NOT a good position to be in against a Heavy.
      Sniper: Yeah, that seems about right.
      (Sniper screams as he's shot by the Heavy and the hand carries him off, putting him in the same sort of situation again)
      Sniper: No worries!
      LazyPurple: This is also not a good position to be in against a Heavy.
      Sniper: Thanks for the practice!
      (Sniper gets filled full of lead again as the hand drops him off a third time)
      LazyPurple: Let's see what you've learned: is this A) Not a good position to be in against a Heavy, or B) A good position to be in against a Heavy?
      Sniper: (chuckles and makes an aside to the camera) You're makin' this so easy... A!
      Beat
      (Sniper gets riddled full of holes again while "correct" jingle plays)
    • The Sandvich segment starts with a clip of a Heavy using his sandvich just as he comes into the line of fire of a mini-sentry. Cue a clip of Heavy shovelling sandviches into his mouth in a desperate attempt to stay alive.
      • "C'mon, Heavy, why can't you eat your sandvich underwater? YOU'RE ABOUT TO DIE!"
      • Lazy also demonstrates how eating the Sandvich can leave you vulnerable, shown by him ambushing the BLU Heavy as he eats his Sandvich in the corner.
        BLU Heavy: How could this happen to me? I made my mistakes. Got nowhere to run! (gets hosed down by Lazy) AAAAAAH, bullshit!
      • The Medic attempting to attack a Heavy eating a sandvich. Guess how well that goes for him.
      • "Canyougivemesandwich?"
      • LazyPurple's incredulous reaction to a healthy Scout snatching up a Sandvich that he was trying to give to a nearly-dead Pyro.
    • While talking about how important teleporters are to a Heavy:
      LazyPurple: Lemme tell ya somethin', if Heavy could build his own Teleporters, he'd be 200% better! (Animation of a Heavy doing exactly that as an Engineer looks on in confusion plays) Heavy + Teleporters = A SUPERIOR CLASS. (Image of a Heavy fused with a Teleporter with glowing red eyes explodes into view and dramatically vibrates) Heavy is slow and he needs Teleporters. So all you Heavies out there, be sure to thank your Engineers for building these! Make sure they know it isn't going unappreciated- [An Übered Pyro wielding a Phlogistinator suddenly appears] Wait, what the fu- HOLY SH-!
    • The "Sentry-Heavy".
    • In organised Highlander matches, he notes that each team will have a competent spy (with a picture of said spy) and a competent sniper (with a frame saying "scene missing").
    • "In casual games, the enemy team might not even have a Sniper. Or at least, not a competent one." (cue a Sniper trying to shoot through a window in their spawn)
  • "How it FEELS to play Soldier." It's exactly what you'd expect a video about the Soldier to be.
    • The opening clip features a Soldier screaming like a lunatic as he rushes the enemy team... before getting promptly killed. And then resuming his mindless screaming as he rocket jumps across the map and captures the point, winning the game for his team.
    • How about the fact that an overly hammy national anthem of the United States plays in the background of most of the video?
    • "Soldier, otherwise known as Jane Doe, also known as the Rocket Launcher/Shotgun Guy."
    • (as he's rocket jumping) "WOO! Look at me go — oh shit that is ALL the bad guys." (gets ventilated and lands with a thud in front of his teammates) "Hey guys, good news! I found the enemy team!"
      Teammates (a Demoman, a Medic and a Scout): *stare at him in disapproval*
      LazyPurple: Heh. Just doin' my job.
      Demoman: YA SUCK!
      LazyPurple: *whimpers*
    • As he's explaining that rocket jumping isn't always the best thing to do, he demonstrates it by animating a skit where the ghosts of his dead team members try, in vain, to make him not rocket jump. He then proceeds to demonstrate why that move was the best thing he could've done by segueing into a segment about playing the Roamer role.
    • Animating the soldier going off to kill the enemy medic in a way that parodies the 1969 moon launch.
    • The entire section on Trolldier:
      LazyPurple: Of course, with all this rocket-jumping around, it'd be a shame not to mention a certain playstyle... (Manntreads, Rocket Jumper, and Market Gardener appear in his hands as a text-to-speech rendition of "It's Raining Men" starts playing)
    • This happens at the very end of the "It's Raining Men" segment:
      LazyPurple: I'm going for the Medic! Guys just hold on, trust me.
      (he kills the Medic)
      LazyPurple: YES! Got him!
      Teammate: YES! Oh my god!
      Announcer: YOU FAILED!
      (beat)
      Teammate: (sheepishly) Yes!
    • LazyPurple eventually has to actually go into what can actually go wrong with rocket-jumping — namely, abruptly getting filled with lead by a revved-up Heavy or a Sentry Gun as you fly directly into their line of sight. This comes complete with a dramatic slow-mo of a rocket-jumping Soldier being shot to death by a Heavy (the exact same one he ran past in "How it FEELS to Play Scout") as he attempts to contest a control point, while various Soldier quotes are spliced together to make him say "Why are we still here? Just to suffer?"
      • "Okay, so you might die while rocket-jumping. But trust me, it only happens, like, uh, 80% of the time. (dramatic screenshot of a Heavy, Engineer, and Scout surrounded by Japanese characters gets superimposed onto the screen) As long as you don't jump into any of these guys, you'll be all right."
      • "Now at this point you may have to use your brain. And I know what you're thinking, 'But Lazy, I am playing Soldier specifically to avoid doing this one thing.'"
      • The above line is immediately followed by LazyPurple making an incredibly well-thought-out play by waiting to rocket jump until he hears a nearby Heavy spin down, extending his rocket jump off a wall to slip past a Pyro without being burned, dropping down behind the enemy Medic, catching him by surprise and forcing him to pop his ÜberCharge to avoid certain death... and then immediately getting killed by a Mini-Sentry that he didn't notice until it shot him to death, which he can only describe as "a slight miscalculation".
    • As he's explaining air shots:
      LazyPurple: [Besides,] there's so much luck involved with shooting someone thirty meters off the ground.
      Soldier: What!? Get with the program!
      LazyPurple: What?
      Soldier: This is AMERICA, maggot!
      LazyPurple: Oh! Sorry! Let's see...
      (cut to him frantically typing "30 meters" in a unit converter as the American national anthem begins to play. Again.)
      LazyPurple: 32.8084 god-blessed American yards off the ground!
      Soldier: (salutes) Amen.
      (the Demoman that Soldier was shooting at earlier falls to the ground behind him)
    • Late in the video, LazyPurple waxes poetic about how the Direct Hit can kill Scouts and destroy Mini-Sentries in one hit, which briefly lapses into him advertising it as "Scout-B-Gone" in the style of an infomercial.
      LazyPurple: (blowing up two RED scouts with the Direct Hit) BANG! BANG! I LOVE YOU, SCOUT-B-GONE!
    • A scout is about to escape Lazy's rocket... but another Soldier on the Scout's team proceeds to grab the rocket out of the air, present it to the Scout like a still-beating heart pulled from someone's chest, and then squeeze it to delete the poor bastard while suffering no visible harm due to their differing health values.
  • "How it FEELS to Play Engineer" was next, and it is full of hilarious moments.
    • The entire first minute of the video is dedicated to show how stressful and panic-inducing it is to play Engineer in competitive teams as the Engy struggles to defend his Sentry from "the entirety of Team Fortress 2", screaming almost all the time.
      • The Pyro hugging the Engy and shaking him to get his attention on the incoming attackers.
      • The enemy Demo missing his sticky jump and dropping down the cliff face behind the Sentry.
      • That Demo finally succeeding and, after all that hard work Lazy put in to keeping it up, destroys the sentry almost instantly with three grenades.
      • The only one who isn't featured is the enemy Scout, which is normal considering which class he's countered by. After seeing Lazy's presence up on the cliff, he A-poses and blips out of existence to go play Minecraft instead.
    • The Pyro that crouchwalks all the way up the stairwell on Barnblitz to attempt to stay unnoticed, and manages to level up his sneak skill in the process.
      • "Okay, it seems everyone knows where my gun is. They probably think that [the room leading to it] is a safe spot where they can prepare an assault. But what if: it wasn't?" (Cue Twinkle Smile)
    • Lazy's ran out of metal, but someone's attacking his Sentry. The logical conclusion? Pulling off his shirt and protecting it with his body, to "Careless Whisper."note 
    • The entire segment where LazyPurple feels like he's Surrounded by Idiots. "WHERE IS MY TEAM?!"
    • He mentions that, with the Gunslinger's mini-sentry, anywhere could be a feasible sentry spot. Like this enemy Scout's corpse! He then proceeds to "parasitise" it to create a mini-sentry. Horrifying, but also still hilarious at the same time somehow.
    • The entire enemy team fleeing once Lazy plunks down a single Wrangled mini-sentry. Then he gets flanked by an enemy Scout.
      LazyPurple: (with a Southern drawl) I tell ya it was like any other Tuesday when that Scout rolled into town, shot me in the back. And now, things have never been the same...
    • Lazy is engaged by a Scout who thinks he's an easy pick without his sentry gun, only to regret it instantly.
      LazyPurple: Oh no, here comes Boy Wonder for his free kill.
      Scout: Yeah, you BETTER hide! Hey overalls, you suck!
      *BLAM BLAM*
      Scout: Oh god, what just happened. (dies)
      LazyPurple: I have. A shotgun!
    • During the Frontier Justice segment, Lazy leaves his Level 1 Sentry in order to finish off an injured Soldier. A quick glance at the kill feed after he finishes off the Soldier reveals that, during the short time he was away, said sentry killed three other players, much to the audible surprise of Lazy himself. Cue an overlay of multiple Engineers laughing while a text-to-speech program says, "HOW IT FEELS TO PLAY ENGINEER".
    • The Widowmaker segment kicks off with a quote-spliced Engineer rant-taunting along to Guile's theme.
    • Lazy with a pocket Medic and the Widowmaker, sneaking behind the BLU assault on Dustbowl and demolishing the enemy team. Meanwhile, Uncle Dane reacts with horror to Lazy's... unorthodox methods.
      Uncle Dane: Lazy, what kinda defense is this?!
      LazyPurple: I AM THE DEFENSE.
    • The final scene, featuring LazyPurple panicking and dropping right into an area surrounded by enemies and setting up his levelled Sentry there. "WARNING: THIS IS MUCH TOO CREATIVE!"
  • Another side entry from LazyPurple's How It Feels series, "How it FEELS to SUFFER in SFM," which is all about his troubles when working with the incredibly dated animation tool.
    • The whole video is presented in Faux Horrific style in the spirit of Halloween.
    • He discovers the Wrangler laser's coloration is controlled by a set of x, y,z coordinates, and elaborates on the fact that this means you need to manually edit the Wrangler's laser by essentially moving an invisible object detached from the laser's location to alter its coloration, using a complicated formula to get the actual RGB value you want.
      Lazy: You didn't get that? (Singsong horror narration) THAT'S BECAUSE IT MAKES NO FUCKING SEEEENSE!
    • Lazy realizes that the lights on Badwater Basin's final point end up flickering between all sorts of different colors, and nothing he tries gets rid of them. Not even editing the map file to explicitly remove the light source from the map.
      Lazy: These lights are SATAAAAN!!!
      • This comes to a head when someone in the SFM community discovers that, to fix the issue, one needs to type 'ent_fire env_lightglow kill' in the console. Lazy's response?
        Lazy: (chuckles) WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEEEAAAN?!note 
  • "How it FEELS to Play Sniper." The first fifty seconds or so provide a slow-mo scene of Sniper!Lazy effortlessly headshotting three enemies in a row, only to head around a corner and, just as the scene gets back up to normal speed, get suddenly and mercilessly ambushed and gunned down by an enemy Heavy.
    • Sniper summed up in one sentence: "Wow, I'm so good at this game ...and now I'm dead."
    • The Scout that decides chasing down this one Sniper and dying immediately after is the best use of his time. He does it thrice, all while having an Overly Long Scream.
      • During the same bit, Lazy talks about how the enemy team has to respect a Sniper's sight-line due to his abilities with Sniper!Lazy Fortnite-dancing after blasting the head of a Heavy who was shoved out of cover clean off... and then that exact same Scout from before sneaks up on him and blows him away.
    • The mock Sniper montage with ironic use of "Megalovania." Also, the inexplicable "You Got Mail" gag in the middle of it.
      • It wasn't even Lazy's doing — he claims it originally started as a relaxing, unedited clip of Lazy doing well on Frontier. Until the video started editing itself, much to Lazy's horror.
    • Lazy elaborating on how personal it can feel playing Sniper — he gets hilariously overdramatic over a Medic and Spy charging him (considering it an insult to his aiming skills and how little they believe in him) and when he gets a non-fatal bodyshot on a Medic, he is outraged — not because he missed, but because the Medic dared brave his sightline in the first place.
      LazyPurple: How dare that Medic show his face! I could've killed him! (yelling across the control point) I COULD'VE KILLED YOOOOOOUUUUU!
    • A Medic plans on popping Über on Upward's final point to push. How Lazy stops it?
      LazyPurple: They weren't counting on one thing... I slept NINE hours last night.
      (camera zooms in as Sniper!Lazy blinks twice)
      • And then that Scout shows up again after Lazy takes down three enemy players. Lazy's reaction before being blown away is priceless.
    • Lazy blaming his mouse for his poor aim. And then he throws it at a wall, causing it to detonate.
    • On reactions to being countersniped:
      • And right before that, we get a retelling of the enemy snipers accusing Lazy of hacking while Lazy points out that they were standing out in the open. All of this to a dramatic Phoenix Wright parody.
    • The video ends with a random enemy Soldier declaring "Screw you! I'm gonna go play Minecraft!" We then see the Soldier actually teleport into Minecraft... right next to the enemy Scout from "How it FEELS to Play Engineer".
  • Extras from "How it FEELS to Play Sniper in TF2" [Behind the Scenes], a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of the Sniper video.
    • The flashing light glitch from the Engineer video returns, only now applied to the entire sun. Lazy rolls with it and cues the techno music:
    Lazy: The year is 20xx. The sun is a strobe light. Life is now a never-ending rave.
  • "How it FEELS to play Pyro in TF2," perhaps LazyPurple's most supernatural and disturbing episode yet.
    • In general, LazyPurple plays the Pyro like a beleaguered Team Mom tirelessly keeping all of his teammates safe.
      Lazy: See, Pyro is the ultimate bodyguard. His guaranteed fire damage and ability to airblast both projectiles and people make him perfect at protecting a zone that I like to call DON'T TOUCH MY BABY!!
      • Lazy demonstrates that he feels guilty whenever he fails to save his teammates when letting Daniel2015933 walk into an obvious sticky trap.
        Lazy: (sobbing) NOOO! I COULDN'T SAVE THE BOY!
    • Lazy aptly demonstrates the duality of playing Pyro:
      Lazy: Although I have to admit, my good intentions are somewhat corruptible...
      Angel Pyro: You're doing great, Pyro! Keep on using that airblast to save your Medic! By protecting him, you're making sure that the rest of your team gets healed. There is no cause more righteous than yours!
      Pyro: Hey, thanks! You're right!
      Devil Pyro: IF YOU BURN YOUR ENEMIES TO ASHES, THEY CAN'T EVEN THINK ABOUT HURTING YOUR MEDIC.
      Pyro: Golly gee, I never thought of it that way! I'll be right back.
      Angel Pyro: NO, YOU DUMBSHIT! Get back here!
    • Lazy gives the Direct Hit a Kids Next Door-inspired introduction.
      Computer Voice: Team Fortress 2 D.I.R.E.C.T.H.I.T: Diabolical Instant Rocket Ejector Carries Teammates by Harming Irritating Turrets.
    • Lazy then rushes off to go warn his team’s engineer of the enemy’s Direct Hit. In Pyroland, he calmly and efficiently explains the situation. Cut to the real world and:
      Lazy!Pyro: (Shaking the engineer while screaming in his face.)
      Engineer: AAAAAHHH HELP!
    • "Part 2: Reflecting Enemy Projectiles. Or... in other words..."
      Baby Soldier and Baby Demo are playing with rockets and grenades, while Lazy!Pyro runs around the corner...
      Lazy: HOLY F***ING SH** YOU KIDS! THOSE AREN'T TOYS, THEY'RE EXPLOSIVE ARMAMENTS!!!
    • Lazy!Pyro trying to "teach" the enemy team not to play with explosives by deflecting their shots back at them. Especially once he gets to the risks of shooting explosives at the Pyro when teammates are around. Lazy is acting like he's running a day-care where the toddlers are the other team.
      Lazy: (scolding) Demoman, you weren't careful with your bouncy balls, and look what happened! (pans over to a screaming Baby Scout) Your friend got hurt! Have you learned your lesson?
      Baby Demo: OOOH I've really hit rock bottom...
      (cut out of Pyrovision to show he's really screaming in terror while holding Scout's severed head as Lazy!Pyro is still lecturing him, complete with finger wagging)
      • The following scene of the enemy Demo repeatedly attempting to kill Lazy while Lazy just casually pushes him away with airblast.
        Demo: I'm going to strangle you!
        Lazy: No you won't.
        Demo: Gonna beat you so hard you'll have a twitch!
        Lazy: No you're not.
        Demo: Go to hell-!
        Lazy: (turning away) ...I'm gonna leave now.
    • Lazy manages to get a new weapon for Pyro, The Phlogistinator which will guarantee him critical hits AND invincibility after dealing enough damage. The drawback?
      No Airblast
      Lazy: WHAT!? (He looks at the weapon, then at the trash-can. And proceeds to throw the weapon away.)
      Lazy: *Stressed Breathing*
      Angel Pyro: I'm so proud of you!
      Lazy: I DIDN'T DO IT FOR YOU!
    • The Engineer's reaction when Lazy manages to reflect his level 3 sentry's rockets:
      The Engineer: Come on! That's bullshit. (Turns at his sentry) You are an stupid sentry.
      The Sentry: (YOU'RE. A. MORON)
      *EMOTIONAL CRIT*
      The Engineer: I'm gonna lay you out! *Dies*
    • Lazy describes a desperate capture attempt on Badwater, where the team was in overtime and inches from failure, throwing themselves repeatedly at the cart just to buy time.
      Lazy: Dear god no, they have Ubercharge! Save yourself, Scout, it's not worth it! Go, run away, Soldier, live a life of purpose, don't throw it away—
      (his team's Soldier is gunned down trying to capture the cart to keep them in the game.)
      Lazy: (anguished) Nooo, you brave bastard!
      (his team's Scout crouches down next to the deceased Soldier and is blown up by a rocket.)
      Lazy: (sobbing) Nooo, you stupid bastard!
    • Lazy decides to play with an obvious Spy:
      Lazy: Oh yeah! I don't see ya there! No, no, you're good, I lost track of you! Hey guys, did you see a Spy around here??? I swear I saw a Spy around h- I'LL KILL YOU! YOU THINK I DON'T SEE YOU?! I SEE YOU, WE ALL SEE YOU!
      Spy: Pyro, stop that! Oh fuck, I can't believe you've done this.
    • Lazy borrows some voice clips from Peter Griffin for a segment on spychecking:
      Lazy: Housekeeping?
      Spy: Come back later, please!
      Lazy: House-KEEPING.
      Spy: GO AWAY!
    • After bringing up how Spies like to brute force their way past Pyro with the Dead Ringer, Lazy shows his solution to the problem: Air Blast them off a cliff.
      LazyPurple: Good luck faking that death.
      (Spy's mask comically flops in the wind as he plummets, screaming at the top of his lungs)
    • part 4: kill everyone
      • After selling his soul by using the Phlogistinator to spawn-camp, Lazy begs forgiveness, and a big bearded bloke in the sky gives him a second chance.
        Medic: (offscreennote  but audibly trembling) Alright, uh... — Vhy does God look like HEAVY?!
    • Lazy airblasts a Demoman off a cliff. The latter responds appropriately after he lands on the ground below:
      Demoman: Screw you! I'm gonna go play Minecraft! (leaves)
    • Meanwhile on Minecraft, the Scout and Soldier from the previous two episodes are mining underground, encountering Bedrock. The Demoman from earlier steps in and throws TNT right in front of the duo, blowing them up.
      Demoman: Ooh, I've really hit rock bottom...(burps)...but have ya tried THIS?
  • "Extras from "How it FEELS to Play Pyro in TF2"":
    • The entire premise of the video (since it was once again released around Halloween) is basically Lazy being kidnapped and forced to make a second video by the Pyro mains because they were annoyed that he didn't talk about W+M1 and secondaries enough. While it can come off as suspenseful, the captors aren't terribly competent at keeping an eye on their prisoner (with just one mostly inattentive guard), who is also somehow able to just run away the moment he's discovered recording SOS messages.
    • Lazy tries to use the Jetpack and ends up in the middle of three Heavies. Cue bass-boosted Soviet National Anthem.
    • The sponsored section for Dollar Shave Club starts with Soldier!Lazy shaving off his beard to avoid detection. It grows back to normal length less than five seconds later.
      • It’s worth noting that Lazy’s beard was much longer than it usually is before he shaved it. Looks like he was due for a shave anyway.
    • The comments give us this gem:
      Lazy: I got to get rid of this beard! Change my name maybe!
      -Clark-: I thought he was about to run into the room, dye the beard orange, and call himself SoundSmith.
    • Speaking of which, you know the Dollar Shave Club's advertisement will be gold when it opens with this exchange:
      Lazy: Whether your beard is purple...
      Stock photograph of a photoshopped purple beard Soldier: Yaaaay!
      Lazy: ...or some more normal color, like pink, or green-
      (more stock photographs of a similar quality to the previous, except with corresponding beard colors and screaming, fearful Soldiers)
    • After discussing his fondness of the Degreaser/Panic Attack loadout, Lazy forgets that he switched from the Panic Attack to the Flare Gun and doesn’t realize his mistake until he tries to 1v1 a Heavy. The (still-on-fire) Heavy he was attacking just yanks the Flare Gun out of his hands.
      Heavy: I am amused. (fires his minigun at Lazy for an inordinately long time)
    • Pyro!Lazy Naruto-running with the Powerjack.
    • One of Lazy's clutch rocket reflects gets the Looney Tunes treatment.
    • Lazy gives Pyro players some advice on how to provoke Soldiers into attacking them with rockets so that they can reflect the projectiles back, but notes that sometimes provocation is unnecessary:
      Lazy: Hey, Soldier! Can I borrow another rocket?
      Soldier: Okay! (shoots a rocket towards Lazy, Lazy reflects it back towards an enemy sniper)
      Sniper: What the bloody hell- SHIT! (rocket hits, Sniper explodes)
      Lazy: Thanks!
  • How it FEELS to play Demoman in TF2 is very much a video that feels themed around the Demoman. Lazy even actually gets drunk at one point.
    • The opening sequence depicts an ubered Lazy!Demo going on a rampage against the enemy team. The enemy team's Demo gets away from the massacre, only to die by running directly into a Heavy and exploding. The Heavy turns around, firing his gun like a madman, only to see that the enemy Demo has already been gibbed, leaving him clearly confused as to what just happened.
    • The video starts with a focus on the sticky launcher. Of course, any competent Demoman knows relying purely on that weapon isn't the best idea...
      • The part about the "SSSSQUAD", aka the Scout, the Soldier, the Sniper and the Spy stylized as thirst-trapping eboysnote .
      • The whole "big brained" sequence where Lazy realizes that even a single sticky bomb can be useful, taking him Beyond the Infinite to see the giant sticky bomb of the cosmos. This ends with the godlike voice saying "you have opened your third ey— uh, second eye," much to the Demoman's annoyance.
      • The entire joke about Scouts bum-rushing Lazy, concluding with him setting up a sticky trap for one, complete with an SFM sequence of the Demoman smugly sitting on a fancy chair with a wine glass and a Medic as his butler.
      • On Upward, Lazy sets a sticky trap large and elaborate enough to "surely get a triple kill and make daddy proud", but unfortunately they choose a different exit. He detonates the trap just to clear it out, right when a cloaked enemy Spy was strolling through the stickies.
        Spy: I am the Spy.
        (apocalyptic explosion)
    • Then he moves on to the pipe launcher:
      • Lazy getting salty over a medic expertly hitting a Scout with a crossbow bolt.
        Lazy: (dialing a phone) Yes, hello, Police? I'd like to report a ROBBERY!
      • When an enemy Heavy attempts to 1v1 Lazy!Demo, the video launches into a lengthy text-to-speech monologue describing the Heavy's coming to terms with his poor choice of strategy, before the video rewinds to reveal what actually happened:
        Heavy: Ohhhh, shit. (explodes)
      • The SFM sequence with a poor Engie getting stuck in mid-air limbo while Lazy and a Medic deliberate over the best trajectory to hit an airshot.
      • The entire sequence involving the Demo being tempted to drink repeatedly... And eventually giving in after missing too many pipe bombs.
    • And then Lazy gets drunk. No, seriously, he actually gets drunk.
      • Lazy going on a drunken Demoknight rampage... With a broken bottle.
      • The drunken rant about dealing with Engineers. Lazy, while later editing the video, facepalms at his own drunken nonsense and fast-forwards to when he's a little more sober.
      • Lazy spotting an unawares enemy Engie, planting three stickies around him, and waiting for the Engie to turn and see him before detonating them.
        Lazy: I feel bad for this guy, honestly.
        Engie: Wha- (gibbed)
      • During this sequence, Lazy!Demo finds an enemy Engineer nest in a little room, gets ubered, completely fills the sentry nest with stickies, and with his Medic, body-blocks the exit. This leads to an SFM bit featuring the Engie screaming and trying to dance around his eventual demise while Lazy!Demo and the Medic charging him headbob to the music. In the actual game, all the poor Engie can do is hop around and shoot the stickies in a vain attempt to escape his fate. Shortly after Lazy detonates all his stickies, the Medic Schadenfreude-laughs at the situation, as Lazy continues to demolish the rest of the team, sans a random Hoovy that offers the Medic a Sandvich.
      • Really, just the entire drunken rant in general. Complete with "technical difficulties" bits.
        Drunk!Lazy: Let me explain. The grenades, the, uh pipes, the, the downside of the pipes, the grenade launcher, is that, uh, it's hard to hit moving targets, right?
        Studio Audience: (golf clap)
    • When Lazy finally gets some coffee... He goes on an angry tirade against Medics who pocket-heal Heavies even when Heavy's slow speed can completely waste an uber, complete with an Ace Attorney-style court sequence. Again.
      • The "jury" during this sequence consists entirely of A-posing Pyros, two of which can be seen trembling.
      • Lazy's comment that these players must be doing this solely to re-enact Meet the Medic.
        Lazy: What ARE you doing?!
        Medic: I HAVE NO IDEA!
    • As usual, the end-of-episode Minecraft bit, where an Engineer ragequits to go help the Scout, Soldier, and Demoman... Who somehow are failing at building a basic wooden house before the Engie shows up. Did we mention that it’s raining?
      • Soldier is the only one doing the actual construction, with Demoman telling him where to put the blocks and Scout just standing there shivering in the pouring rain as he waits for them to finish. Things go smoothly...until Soldier decides to toss the final block into the gap like if it were a basketball.
        Soldier misses the shot
        Demoman: Nice.
        The house immediately collapses
      • Soldier and Demo despairing over their failed attempt at a house.
    • Engineer conveniently wearing an umbrella hat despite not wearing one when he Rage Quit. Looks like he came Crazy-Prepared.
    • The fact that it's a Scout begging the Engineer to help with construction is doubly funny when you consider the tension between players of the two classes and is nodded to with Engineer refusing to help at first until Scout asks him politely.
  • "Extras from "How it FEELS to Play Demoman in TF2"":
    • "demoknight tf2".
      • After Lazy showcases Demoknight's One-Man Army capabilities, the map is basically empty:
        Demoman: (beat, looking around) Where was the other team?!
      • The look on an enemy Spy's face as he sees Lazy!Demoknight charging at him from behind.
      • To demonstrate how much of a threat a Demoknight with four accumulated heads is, Lazy chases after a Scout.
        Scout: (backpedalling frantically) Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God! (slapping own thigh) Work, damn it!
        (Cue POV of Lazy!Demo bearing down on the Scout as the classic Thomas & Friends theme blares)
      • Lazy tries to showcase that the Eyelander allows you to steal heads off of enemy Demoknights, but since having heads gives Demoknight a speed advantage, Lazy can't keep up with the other Demoknight and they die before he can collect their heads. Cue an SFM bit where Lazy sees the dead Demoknight's four collected heads, declares "Five second rule!" and starts eating them off the ground.
      • Later during this section, Lazy slowly chops away at a Heavy who doesn't seem to notice that he's being attacked from behind.
        Heavy: (being decapitated by multiple chops to the neck) Ugh... Heavy feel funny...
      • An unintentional example on Lazy's part. In the gameplay footage, you can see that Lazy was on Team BLU while the Heavy was on Team RED. But in the SFM clip, both Lazy and Heavy are wearing RED. So much for TF2 removing Friendly Fire.
    • Lazy ranting about how, due to the way client-side registration in the game works, melee hits often have a disjointed range that "puts Marth to shame". Cue Marth chipping in with a Banjo-Kazooie-style text box.
      Marth: Okay yeah that's messed up
    • Lazy demonstrating why it's a bad idea for Demoknight to take on two Heavies at once.
      Demoman: Oh, this is not good! (gets gunned down)
    • At one point, Lazy!Demoknight rushes to the midpoint only to realize that not only does the enemy team have a Pyro, who can easily airblast a Demoknight like Lazy away should he attempt to attack, but he's the only RED player there. Surrounded by BLU players (including a Medic and a Spy), all he can do is call for help from his team as the enemy team just stares at this random RED Demoknight. The incident is enough to bring the match to a grinding halt.
      WHEN YOUR LOADOUT IS SO EXPLOITABLE YOU
      YOU TURN THE SERVER FRIENDLY
    • While demonstrating how Demoman can accidentally launch himself into the air if he forgets where he places his sticky bombs, Lazy does just that and ends up in front of a bunch of enemies. With nothing better to do, he kills them all, unknowingly saving a friendly Scout. The sheer relief and gratitude in the Scout's voice as he thanks Lazy over VC just makes Lazy's reaction even funnier.
      Lazy: Hey, yeah, man! Uhh, I saw you were...in trouble over here, uh, and I, uh, had to help! Heh heh... Anytime.
    • The Honey ad break features Lazy threatening to find the ONE person who still hasn't installed the app and save them SO much money!
      Lazy!Soldier: (breaking down door) DO YOU HAVE HONEY INSTALLED?!
      Scout: Yeah yeah YEAH!
      Lazy: Alright... you'd better!
    • In the latter half of the video, Lazy gives us a clip demonstrating how spectacularly sticky traps can backfire. In the clip, a Heavy falls for the trap Lazy sets, only to survive it and be launched clear across the map while ubercharged, over the front lines and into a very unfortunate Sniper. All while the Russian anthem blares triumphantly in the background.
      Lazy: Oh my god! Oh, he's dead. Oh, he's definitely dead. Ohhhh god, the Sniper from Team Fortress 2 is dea-
    • The entire section on the Scot- (cue interrupting bagpipe music) the (bagpipes resume) SCOTTISH RESISTANCE!
    • Lazy's description of going on a Kritzkrieg-powered rampage with the Stickybomb Launcher.
      Lazy: It's really a beautiful story. I earn a Medic's trust through trial and tribulation, the Medic grants me godly powers, I kill 7 heathens and ascend straight to heaven. Definitely some undertones of Greek classicism here. Very tasteful.
    • Also an In-Universe funny moment: DK is my waifu note 
    • Lazy recounts a moment where he was playing as the Demoman in a Highlander match. He worked together with the team's Spy to set up a large sticky trap, the plan being to have the Spy tell Lazy when to "det"note . Unfortunately, the team's Scout had the username "ded", and when the round started, the Spy addressed the Scout by his username and...
