About the übersaw, I developped a very instersing strategy with a friend of mine.
First, both get medics
Second, get a übercharge (one is enough)
Third, übercharge the other medic, which should have the übersaw equipped
Fourth, CHARGE!
Fifth, the medic which had the übersaw should have it's über (4 hits required and a überchrge gives enough time for 6 hits), switch roles.
Sixth, enjoy!

I tested it and it works pretty well. I once got a 1min übercharge which ended because the other team was hiding in their respawn. Medics are perfect for that since they are faster than any other class (but scout), so they can chase after almost anything to get 4 hits on it. The best targets are Heavy (you kill it in 4 hits, so it's a free über), soldiers and demomen, because they are slow and have quite high hp.

It's great both in attack and defense, and the opposite team usually end up waiting for the charges to end in their spawn. Of course, that requires a lot of communication.
