The knee when he raises it could use a tiny bit more work, but this is still really good after all these years.

they should honestly just be the sandman taunt and the home run can stay on the Atomizer

that taunt could be an achievement unlock :)

I completley agree with you! and i guess your right. just some polishing her and there and then i think it would be a sensible worthy taunt to have in the game.

the come back usually is a bit slower in baseball pitches, actually. Chucking a fast ball takes a lot of force and momentum, so getting back up straight on 2 feet quickly wouldn't make too much sense. As for a bit of extra smoothing, i believe that would only result in loss of speed in the pitch, and more floaty, unrealistic movements. Polishing, however, well.. there's always room for polishing. :D

would be cool if it stunned like the sandman

a little slow on the come back, smooth it out a bit more and it would be perfect.

smooth it out more. Make it more fluid and the ending is really stiff

my wish is for it to either be a taunt kill or an instant moon shot, which is the max duration that a player can be stunned. This is entirely up to Valve though if they put it in. c:

Cool! The taunt is very smooth. Is this going to be a taunt kill?

basic but charming :)

@Below It'd be better if it stayed as him throwing the ball. People won't realise that it's suppose to make people flinch, and who's gonna flinch when you do a big build up to throwing a ball? They'd just get out the way.

Personally, I think it's better for the taunt if the Scout didn't throw a ball. It's be like a fake out, where he laughs afterwards at people for flinching.

Would actually go well with the Sandman taunt; The animations together could make a great Baseball scene in gmod or sfm

nice, though I think the animation would be better if it was polished more and smoother, it seems a bit stiff.

also he stands with his feet together too, thats part of it.

The scout (and all the other mercs) are ususally slouching in their idle poses, seeing scout stand up straight is a little weird.

if you timed this perfectly with the sandman taunt, it'd be amazing if he hit the ball and you could stun someone

It would be awesome if it acted like the Sandman, hitting somebody with the ball throw will stun them.

It's very well animated, IMO. Nice job. :)

Like it. Looks cool. :)

Just smooth the animation a bit and its fine.

It would be made as it's own taunt if it were added in game. What actually happens depends on what Valve might do with it if they decided to add it in game. It could possibly involve throwing a ball, but it also could only involve the animation.

for what you wrote in the description, maybe as a taunt kill variant for the sandman?
