Uh i need some points for soldier on soldier action. I just left a game cause i was pwned by this one soldier every time we went one on one.
The first thing to do is make sure the other soldier is not me. If not, then you stand a chance so keep reading...
Seriously though, you've played enough soldier to know what circumstances leave the soldier at a disadvantage, just use that on your opponent (i.e. use clever footwork to get them into a corner where splash damage is unavoidable). I try to fire very few rockets when I am going soldier on soldier, avoid their rockets as best I can (hopefully until they have fired their 4) and either catch them on the reload or time a few rockets right at their feet while they come down from their predictable jumping-while-firing rhythm that most soldiers seem to have ingrained into their subconscious. Above all, never forget that you have a shotgun and a shovel. Soldier duels are often in close quarters and can be quickly ended with a shotgun to the chest.
Works for me most the time, but I'm sure others will have some suggestions. I'm half the soldier I used to be.

I don't know if they've secretly updated the scout but I'm on the receiving end of a lot of crits. More than usual.

Keep jumping and firing as mas0n said. Don't wait for your soldier to reload his rockets; immediately pull out your shotgun and shoot him. Then when he is reloading, do the same.
we played hydro last night, I would like us to get back to warpath. And mas0n if i see you as soldier i will do the same thing that i did last night and blow you up, thats my two step guide for killing you check name tag and explode.
I think we need to set up a map rotation that we like. The reason that we seem to play the same maps over and over is because there are some standard maps, like Well, that people seem to like little enough that when we see them, we change to a map we know we like, like Gold Rush. Unfortunately, this means that we rarely play the maps that we like, but which are not favorites.
Thanks for the welcome prime ^_^..... also... I'd have to agree with this buddy j guy... the maps do switch a bit to fast which can be annoying.... like, for instance... sometimes i'll be in a map that i love to play offense on but i get stuck defending for three rounds and then the map changes and i'm sad lol.... but it's still my favorite server regardless of map changing because of the people ^_^

But yeah, dustbowl and goldrush are popular requests right now
