Wait let me get this straight, you think firing fewer bullets is not a meaningful con?
On a class that chews through pretty much every class in the entire game in 2 seconds anyway, barring other Heavies in which case he'd still probably 1v1 because of the faster rev up?
No, it isn't.
Oh man, what.
First of all, Heavy only chews through "pretty much every other class" if they're stupid enough to just stand in your line of fire and die. To be fair, on pubs, that's like 99% of everyone you'll run into. If you play against people who are smart, then things are a lot different. The fact is that Tomislav allows far greater opportunity to retreat out of the Heavy's line of fire, even at pretty close range, and it's a lot less threatening in more suppressive-fire situations.
Second, are you kidding, a minigun Heavy beats a Tomislav Heavy pretty much 100% of the time unless the Tomislav Heavy gets a really significant jump on the other. This wasn't true with the original, broken Tomislav, but it was true with the 40% Tomislav and and the 10% Tomislav has absolutely no chance against a minigun Heavy. It's straight up domination by the minigun.
