The Soldier

The Soldier is a crazed, jingoistic patriot from Midwest, USA. Tough and well-armed, he is versatile, capable of both offense and defense, and a great starter class to get familiar with the game.

Well-balanced and possessing both survivability and mobility, the Soldier is considered one of the most flexible classes in Team Fortress 2. Despite his low ground movement speed, he is capable of using rocket jumps to reach his destination quickly. His large health pool is second only to that of the Heavy, and his wide array of armaments and weaponry allows him to bring whatever weapon or equipment is best suited to the situation at hand.

The Soldier is well known for his spectacular rocket jump. In defiance of all good sense and judgment, the Soldier can detonate a rocket at his feet and launch himself skyward at the cost of some health (which can be reduced by the Gunboats. This ability allows the Soldier to navigate the battlefield by air, appear from unexpected places, and reach areas off-limits even to the Scout's double jump.

The Soldier was voiced by the late Rick May.

Tips:

· You can rocket jump to great heights by simultaneously jumping and firing a rocket at the ground.

· Crouching and jumping simultaneously while aiming at the ground will propel you farther at the cost of more self-damage.

· Aim rockets at enemy's feet to ensure they can't avoid the explosion damage.

· Make sure you keep your Rocket Launcher loaded. Hit R to reload it at any time.
