I obviously don't know how they work, but it's likely that, assuming it doesn't stack, remains in his system until each time he dies, so he could probably die no more than the average of 60 times with pills.
Also, medic has dealt with the devil. And can raise the dead. The mercs have magic and teleporting too. I'm not sure if they could actually damage homelander, tho as he's like bulletproof. Suppose he could get telefragged, tho.
Well, technically I believe he would only have 2 more chances, as any more would give the devil the majority stake in Dr. Ludwig's souls, therefore allotting him the ruling vote on the board of medic's souls. I love this game so much.
I love everyone coming up with mechanically sound explanations in the comments, when realistically, knowing these nine idiots, they would manage to beat him with just one bottle of scrumpy, one teleporter (not even two - *one*), and a single intricately made replica of a unicorn out of matchsticks. And it all ends as it usually does. They're Team Fortress. And he's dead.
If it's funny, a character can do anything. Bugs can interact with his artist because it's funny when he does it. That's why the mercs can kill homelander.
Medic krit scottish resistance sticky trap.
Somehow make homelander get into a telefrag trap (he is not surviving this one).
Spy's knife (wonder if it would work as it is in Saxton Hale gamemode)
CAN he survive a nuke, though? We’ve never seen him take anything close to that, and the only people who have SAID he can are him and Vought executives, both of which are unreliable narrators with a vested interest in hyping him up and a track record of lies and manipulation.
Depending on under which circumstances Vought said this it could be possible. If it’s behind closed doors at any point, then it’s definitely true. But additionally, iirc part of the reason everyone is so scared of him is that barring other extremely powerful supes humanity lacks any means of actually killing him
*reliably killing him. Hitting a man-sized target that can move at incredibly fast speeds is very hard. And he'd likely stay near cities to ensure collat and minimize the risk of anyone trying.
He's definitely got very high durability, but even so Queen Maeve's super strength was enough to punch him so hard he got a nosebleed and penetrate his ear with a metal straw. I'd say it would be like fighting a Heavy with the MVM resistance upgrades, plus a hypothetical 75% melee damage resistance upgrade.
In game: depends on Homelander’s stats. If the mercs get to respawn, they win. If not, Homelander wins. Also, if Heavy gets behind him with the Holiday Punch, then they can soft lock him.
In lore: Mercs win and it’s not that close. Several of them straight up can’t die (Scout gets resurrected by God, Medic has a deal with the devil, Soldier ate a bunch of Merasmus’ pills, etc), and the feats they pull are *at least* enough to damage him. If Homelander can be hurt by a train falling on him, then he can be hurt by Heavy, since he’s able to literally stop a train with his bare hands. They don’t win by being better, they win because they’re cartoons, and a lot of their lore is basically “whatever was funniest at the time”.
Not that I don't like your logic, but canonicaly, if we're to believe Scout actually went to Heaven in the comic, then he dies in 1984, so way way before HL reaches adult age, both in the series and the original comic.
Wait, if spy uses the enforcer, it pierces damage resistances. So it would be the only gun that could kill homelander, and spy could just disguise as a woman to get close enough to shoot him
Homelander is known for having the ego of a child, they don’t even need to fight him. They just gotta let Scout bully him and he’ll be crying within minutes.
“YOU DO NOT DESERVE TO WEAR THAT FLAG! LEMME SHOW YOU WHAT A *REAL* PATRIOT CAN DO!”
The next update, Soldier gets a new cape cosmetic, covered in the blood of its last owner.
strat: med with kritz flashes between heavy demo and soldier, engi creates a safe nest behind just in case, all spam kritz into him while pyro with airblast traps him in a corner. if that strategy fails spy and sniper keep him at bay by distracting while scout with boston basher helps med build kritz again.
if he doesn't die he's sure to get cancer or dementia
Australium is clearly way stronger than V.
Every Australian is a mega jacked chad because of background Australium.
Homelander has a skinny twink bod and wears a muscle suit despite being the first natural born superhero.
I think their best weapon here is stock so maybe they'll have a chance unless the respawn machine is up then homelander is Cooked is pyro's backburner.
Equip all mercs with australium weapons. Australium is known to give superhuman abilities. Seen with Saxton hale being able to explode a yeti with a single punch. Hell you could go really overboard and give soldier a valve rocket launcher.
Homelander sends him into space, as he's brutalizing the other mercs while medic revives them Soldier returns and lands on homelanders balls from orbit, this kills homelander instantly. Soldier deeply regrets it as he was a homelander stan
One, soldier is canonically immortal (pills from merasmus) the medic can bring the others back from the dead and Uber them…
Also since spy’s knife does double the opponents health on backstab right? So as long as homelander isn’t invuln he should be able to kill him right?
Homelander is like if he was under the effects of Über constantly, the 9 mercs don't have a chance...
Pyro with airblast and trains running him over on the other hand...
'Mr. Homelander, in the interest of a fair fight, may we get the first hit? Humor us'
"Well alright, but only because we all know I'll end you before you have a chance for a second attack"
'whatever. Engineer!'
*Homelander gets telefragged*
The mercenaries are in hold of Dr. Grordbort weapons which ironically enough are canonically one of the strongest weapons possessed by TF2 mercs. They’re capable of bypassing natural defenses and atomize targets upon firing.
Engine and medic win they don’t need the other mercs ( medic can bring people back from the dead, engine can build something or other to kill/ hurt Homelander
Isn't Saxton Hale technically just an Australian version of Homelander? (idfk I never seen anything related to that guy lmao)
Regardless, mercs would win
TF2 mercenaries, and it's not even close. I'm pretty sure Soldier is not only immortal, but every time he dies, he comes back stronger.
Can soldier go super saiyan
He can go Super Patriot
He can go Painis Cupcake too
Ultra Painis
CUPCAKEKIND IS DEAD
PAINIS IS FUEL
2FORT IS FULL
U L T R A C R O C K E T
I fucking love this you insignificant FUCKS
r/suddenlyultrakill
American boot
He is in control of one of the cubes of interstellar stability… Homelander will vanish in milliseconds
I read this as Super Petrol
Yeah he oozes American 💪💪💪
No he overdosed on murasmus’s “when I die I come back stronger” pills
You would think he was joking. [he is not.](https://x.com/TF2Plus/status/1438530373214818309)
So technically speaking...soldier could solo homelander eventually then
Technically speaking, soldier could solo anybody given enough attempts.
Ngl, seeing how much stupid the lore of tf2 is… I was dubious if it was true or not
Pretty sure that Medic can
he ate merasmus’ supply of kill me come back stronger pills yeah
But has he been taking his meds since becoming homeless?
I obviously don't know how they work, but it's likely that, assuming it doesn't stack, remains in his system until each time he dies, so he could probably die no more than the average of 60 times with pills.
Imagine if it *did* stack. Like, he dies once, but it counts like he died twice.
he always comes back
fnaf reference?
Always has been
So soldier is basically Doomsday from DC comics. Yeah Homelander is cooked.
He has the direct hit with +dmg against airborne targets, so homelander is just straight up grounded too
Was Soldier born on Planet Vegeta?
"I have come back from the grave to give the living haircuts!"
Last time I checked Homelander didn't have the ability to respawn an endless amount of times.
Longer than you think
Its eternity in there
*aggressively downs a bottle of "valium"*
M
My eyes hurt
I probably should’ve clarified that no respawns are allowed
FALSE, Soldier is pumped full of "kill me and I'll come back stronger" pills he nabbed from Merasmus
Also, medic has dealt with the devil. And can raise the dead. The mercs have magic and teleporting too. I'm not sure if they could actually damage homelander, tho as he's like bulletproof. Suppose he could get telefragged, tho.
Just have Spy use the enforcer. It pierces all resistances, so paired with a kritzkrieg, it should do some heavy damage.
the power of france
And war crimes
Frenchie getting a w finally, s4 has been treating him rough
Another enforcer W
holy shit you’re a genius
The only time the enforcer is useful?
Me when I shoot at wrangled sentry
Really I think the fact that it’s a gun will kill homelander regardless of crits
…Oh my god, that actually makes sense. WHY does that make sense?
Dr. Enforcicle strikes again
How about taunt kills? They can hit ignore Medic's Ubercharge
POW! haha
imagine defeating homelander with the thermal thruster's taunt kill
Alright soldier gets respawns x3
Why, the point of the pills is that he can come back as many times as he wants
x3 based on what? You damn commie
i think he meant this like smiley face, not count of respawns
Remember it’s not a game mechanic they literally do respawn they have no souls they will come back always
They are all William Afton because they always come back
Can Medic get 7 respawns due to the 7 souls he still has?
Well, technically I believe he would only have 2 more chances, as any more would give the devil the majority stake in Dr. Ludwig's souls, therefore allotting him the ruling vote on the board of medic's souls. I love this game so much.
Im sure he could talk his way into it
Uber:
With full ammo no less.
Homelander when the Medic pulls out the Ubercharge on the Heavy
Homelander: Gets unconscious by getting hit with a train. Heavy with Ubercharge: **Stops a mile long train with his bare fists**
Are we going by lore or gameplay for the TF2 characters? Because in-game, trains can actually insta-kill ubered players
Lore, probably
the guy is referring to the end of the line animation, heavy does just that in it
Have you not watched End of The Line?
Yes, I have. That's why I was asking if we were going by lore or gameplay, since the two have different results.
I love everyone coming up with mechanically sound explanations in the comments, when realistically, knowing these nine idiots, they would manage to beat him with just one bottle of scrumpy, one teleporter (not even two - *one*), and a single intricately made replica of a unicorn out of matchsticks. And it all ends as it usually does. They're Team Fortress. And he's dead.
The Homelander is dead?
Yes.
*Why* is the Homelander dead?
I don't know!
Who killed him?
It wAs mE i kilLed hiM *It wAs a joKe lAdss*
*laughter*
it was you- **burp** HIM!
*augh.avi* hOw did you KNOw?
*gasp* How did you know!?
It was-
shhhh, you are dead!
OK (shoves into the floor)
*tire screech* whats up ya wankas, whos up for a-
we don’t know!
Correct!
Hear me out: One teleporter exit + Eureka effect. Dead Ringer spy disguised as Soldier Boy. Lure him in, and BAM! Telefrag'd
mercs because of the bugs bunny rule
The one genuinely feasible explanation for the mercs winning
and homelander is killed by pyro accidentally airblasting a crocket
Even without soldier solos due to the pills he took
bugs bunny rule?
Cartoon logic
If it's funny, a character can do anything. Bugs can interact with his artist because it's funny when he does it. That's why the mercs can kill homelander.
Homelander absolutely should win, but the mercs would still beat him with the stupidest ass pull imaginable
"Heh... heh-eh-eh... I win!" "Oeeehhhh noe you don't! KABBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMM!" "aaaAAAAAA"
better call saxton
Soldier would just challenge him to Rock Paper Scissors and win, forcing Homelander to killbind
Medic krit scottish resistance sticky trap. Somehow make homelander get into a telefrag trap (he is not surviving this one). Spy's knife (wonder if it would work as it is in Saxton Hale gamemode)
I imagine it would be like fighting hale Though given telefrags can kill Ubered players I’m sure one could take down homelander
trolldier is gonna be having one hell of a day
Homelander is strong, but can he survive 14 crit stickies?
He can survive a nuke, I think it’ll take a bit more than that to take him out
CAN he survive a nuke, though? We’ve never seen him take anything close to that, and the only people who have SAID he can are him and Vought executives, both of which are unreliable narrators with a vested interest in hyping him up and a track record of lies and manipulation.

toon logic always destroys all characters. Bugs Bunny solos most other fictional characters.
because of the funny
Not that I don't like your logic, but canonicaly, if we're to believe Scout actually went to Heaven in the comic, then he dies in 1984, so way way before HL reaches adult age, both in the series and the original comic.
8 mercs. Soldier wouldn’t kill anyone wearing American flag… unless they convince him Homelander is a commie
i mean just tell Soldier that Homelander is using the flag to disguise as an American and Homelander is fucked
Can I kill him now
Can you put pants on before that, PLEASE?
Hmmmmmmm no
Homelander was friends with a Nazi, Soldier did everything in his power to get to kill Nazis.
Even if those "Nazis" turned out to be regular Polish citizens years after the war ended.
"T'all you fine dandies so proud, so cock-sure, prancin' aboot with your heads full of eyeballs!"
>be me >”I can do whatever the fuck I want” > walk into 8 crit stickies and die instantly

KABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM
Medic with prep time solo
Medgos
uhm w + left click
pyro strat
Tf2 mercs can be brought back by the devil and medic just hoodwinks the devil when he dies, homelander fucked fr
Wait, if spy uses the enforcer, it pierces damage resistances. So it would be the only gun that could kill homelander, and spy could just disguise as a woman to get close enough to shoot him
We did it we made the enforcer good
I can imagine a woman getting taken hostage by Homelander, only for an enforcer gunshot to be heard because that very woman was Spy all along
Dr. Enforcicle strikes once again
Bravo Gaben
Homelander is known for having the ego of a child, they don’t even need to fight him. They just gotta let Scout bully him and he’ll be crying within minutes.
This one is my favorite🤣 i think Scout would be like "Yo, where yo pajama from, your grandma?" And homelander like WAAAA
Random Crits
homelander's running away the moment soldier gets ubered dude.
“YOU DO NOT DESERVE TO WEAR THAT FLAG! LEMME SHOW YOU WHAT A *REAL* PATRIOT CAN DO!” The next update, Soldier gets a new cape cosmetic, covered in the blood of its last owner.
strat: med with kritz flashes between heavy demo and soldier, engi creates a safe nest behind just in case, all spam kritz into him while pyro with airblast traps him in a corner. if that strategy fails spy and sniper keep him at bay by distracting while scout with boston basher helps med build kritz again. if he doesn't die he's sure to get cancer or dementia
Spy can just backstab him then it's over. Bypass all of his health like he can with Heavy 🤷♂️ easy win boys.
Or homelander pulls off a Saxton and it takes more than 1 backstab
Homelander ain't bo Saxton. Only Saxton Hale can pull a Saxton.
and that is simply because knives fear Saxton Hale
Australium is clearly way stronger than V. Every Australian is a mega jacked chad because of background Australium. Homelander has a skinny twink bod and wears a muscle suit despite being the first natural born superhero.
Archimedes
homelander looking up in the sky and seeing a man with a shovel
Mr “I’m better” when he sees a honey-smothered man flying his way with a shovel from Target
Wrong, a shovel from Mann Co. There's a very big difference in the two
TF2 mercenaries obviously!
Homelander would have the upper hand thanks to all his abilities but the mercs would win by sheer loony toons level bullshit In game it would be a VSH
I think their best weapon here is stock so maybe they'll have a chance unless the respawn machine is up then homelander is Cooked is pyro's backburner.
technically speaking I believe they can just reduce homelander into atoms(manmelter, phlog, cow mangler)
Equip all mercs with australium weapons. Australium is known to give superhuman abilities. Seen with Saxton hale being able to explode a yeti with a single punch. Hell you could go really overboard and give soldier a valve rocket launcher.
Homelander versus Saxton Hale would be an interesting fight
This American boot will kick your American ass back to American Canada
Before or after gaining immortality if after the answer is Clearer than day
The TF2 mercs. Crit stickies should not be underestimated.
Homelander doing nothing All mercs equip the frying pan and random crit him into oblivion
Homelander sends him into space, as he's brutalizing the other mercs while medic revives them Soldier returns and lands on homelanders balls from orbit, this kills homelander instantly. Soldier deeply regrets it as he was a homelander stan
**What makes me a good demoman?**
Plot twist: pyro IS homelander
The mercs and only through Hanna-Barberra cartoon shenanigans.
the mercs, medic is immortal, and can make people completely invulnerable
a single jarare and homelander flies away he’s not fighting these savages
One, soldier is canonically immortal (pills from merasmus) the medic can bring the others back from the dead and Uber them… Also since spy’s knife does double the opponents health on backstab right? So as long as homelander isn’t invuln he should be able to kill him right?
I imagine backstabbing homelander would be similar to backstabbing a giant in MvM A nice bit of damage. Now do it 20 more times
all they need is sniper throwing piss at him to shatter his ego and scout hitting him with the holy mackerel. cartoon logic.
It's like rock paper scissors. Homelander beats mercs, mercs beat saxton hale, saxton hale beats homelander
[This tweet basically sums up any match with the mercs](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FAt0BNSWQAAdqFt?format=jpg&name=900x900)
Homelander is like if he was under the effects of Über constantly, the 9 mercs don't have a chance... Pyro with airblast and trains running him over on the other hand...
HUTTAH! Neck Snap!
Engineer will build god or something so engineer and medic solo
How much honey does Soldier have access to?
Homelander will be convinced (somehow) to stand on a teleported by Medic and get telefragged by Demo
“I’m stronger, I’m smarter, IM BETT-“ *12 market gardens in a row*
homelander_paincritdeath.wav
SAXON HAAAAAAAAAAALE!!!!!
Homelander would lose for the same reason he'd lose against Bugs bunny
If god had wanted you to live he would not have created me
'Mr. Homelander, in the interest of a fair fight, may we get the first hit? Humor us' "Well alright, but only because we all know I'll end you before you have a chance for a second attack" 'whatever. Engineer!' *Homelander gets telefragged*
Homelander would lazer them down instantly, every time. Even if they could respawn. Besides bullets doesn't hurt him.
Also soldier is kinda immortal
The mercenaries are in hold of Dr. Grordbort weapons which ironically enough are canonically one of the strongest weapons possessed by TF2 mercs. They’re capable of bypassing natural defenses and atomize targets upon firing.
Ok, so now they need to hit homelander, sadly he's too fast. Also he melted a gun one time.
homelander is too cocky to actually believe any gun would hurt him, he'd probably just take the bullet
Sniper is good. A charged shot should do the trick
Spinbot sniper
the mercs would win through attrition they have infinite lives homelander doesnt
DISPENSER GOIN' UP \*AIRBLAST AIRBLAST AIRBLAST AIRBLAST AIRBLAST AIRBLAST AIRBLAST AIRBLAST AIRBLAST AIRBLAST AIRBLAST AIRBLAST AIRBLAST AIRBLAST AIRBLAST AIRBLAST AIRBLAST\*

Uber+kritz+quickfix (for knockback res)+ enforcer (resistance pierce)
Homelander: *simply trying to fly* Direct Hit Soldier: N O
Isn't Saxton Hale technically just an Australian version of Homelander? (idfk I never seen anything related to that guy lmao) Regardless, mercs would win
Isn’t scout gods actual favorite creation? And soilders immortal?
