Sapper is the ninth and last class listed on the class selection menu, having a wide variety of gadgets and gizmos at his disposal. Primarily focusing on a quickswap playstyle with his tools, he could play both offense and defense with great sustainability, and is generally the toughest, most annoying class to fight against.

Tactics
Playing as


 * Sapper is highly sustainable provided you don't engage into fights aimlessly. Your slot 1 weapons are usually capable of exposing an enemy's weakness, which is either slowly killing them while inflicting them with shock that reduces their throwing range, or just killing them within 2 seconds.


 * Use your cloak switch or throwaporter if you don't want to deal with a situation you are in, or if you want to flank enemies.


 * Sentry is annoying as FUCK always drop it with you when theres nearby enemies


 * The general philosophy is to be as annoying as possible while absolutely destroying the enemy team

Playing against


 * Whenever a Sapper places a sentry, be sure to stay out of its sight or destroy it as fast as possible, as sentries easily become the biggest problem for a fact that they perfectly track basically everyone in their sight.


 * Weave through cover to prevent being shot at and dying immediately or getting the shock effect, as those two scenarios always lead up to a bad situation.


 * Pay close attention to your sound and listen to any cloak switch, throwaporter, or ANFO crate activations and try to keep watch of your surroundings while doing so.


 * Explosive classes such as Bazooker and Demoman are generally better at dealing with sentries, mortars, and ANFO Crates, as explosives deal full damage to non-humanoid targets. Both classes also boast alot of health and do not rely on throwables to do their job.

Cosmetics
Sapper has black limbs and a team colored torso. He wears a weird looking team colored hat with a bunch of gizmos attached to its front.

Trivia
Sapper is another term for a combat engineer, which fits the class since he can build sentries, mortars, and mini nukes.
