Facing Heavy-Medic Combo.

Is it possible to take out a heavy/medic combo with 4 rockets?
And whats the best way to take on a good heavy?
I always get screwed on heavies on open maps. Maps like 2Fort are easy because you can usually minimize your target so it makes it impossible for them to hit you with all their shots...

How should you face a heavy medic combo?

I also always find that the heavy covers the medic and when i get the medic the heavy kills me.

I've tried RJing but they repel me back....

4 rockets? hmm maybe if 2 are crit yeah..

If there was any way for 1 player to comfortably kill 2 players every time, then the bitching would never end about it.

backstab and sniper?

Aim for the Medic, if you can't kill him then run.

spawn raping.... ^^^ dustbowl stage 2 lol.

Best hope for survival is to run. The medic can only travel as fast as his buddy, and you might be able to kill the medic from above/behind (e.g. battlements on  2fort to bridge).

If they see you always go for the medic if you're alone. With no teammates nearby you have no hope of taking down the buffed heavy with your limited firepower unless you have the favor of the crit gods.

If they haven't seen you try rocket jumping over them to land behind and take out the medic.

If you can take the medic down you should quickly pop in and out of cover firing rockets at the heavy while he keeps his gun revved slowly moving forward.

Yeah, but neither of those can beat a heavy-medic head on. Extenuating circumstances deliever those kills.

Like everyone has already said, GO FOR THE MEDIC! As any head on combat class I will always bypass the guy being healed and bumrush the medic, especially if I'm a pyro. Taking out a medic or at least forcing him to retreat gets rid of a source of free healing for the enemy and makes his patient more vulnerable if he's dumb enough to press on regardless.
