well, you have no defense against a good scout
no stickies to blow him up, unless you're really fucking good at aiming those pipes, he's going to have you dead in a second

i've killed plenty scouts with stickies, you just gotta guess where they're gonna go.

they're bad scouts then, the idea is to try and make them not be able to guess

Wouldnt that partially make the scottish resistance better?
I mean, you can't mulch with it, but you can set 2 - 3 traps on the same door instead

If you play against competetive-level scouts then you can more or less guarantee you will get fucked trying to use the stickies on them. The time it takes you to shoot and then detonate a bomb isn't much less than the time it will take a good scout to anally rape you, and it's pretty obvious to the scouts which way the bomb is going to go. The only way I find I can deal with them is to use the grenades once they get close, or better yet run away and try to find a scout or soldier to help me.

no, because the other half of the demoman's job is literally just w+m1+m2 on the enemy combo (sticky spam on slow-moving soldiers and demomen does incredible amounts of damage). With Scottish Resistance you basically give up all offensive capabilities. It is a fantastic tool for turtling a point when your team is at a massive disadvantage tho (think entire minefields covering badlands last), just don't expect to push back and recapture any points without re-equipping the standard launcher first.
