Nice little 5 kill streak I amassed on the Harvest map.

TIPS FOR USING THE WIDOWMAKER
#1-GET CLOSE!!!
Use your surroundings as barriers to help close the gap between you and your target, and save your shots till you get close, and KEEP MOVING, targets standing still will almost always get hit, SO DON'T STOP MOVING. At short range the widowmaker can do over 100 dmg per shot, making quick work of Soldiers, Demomen, and Heavies.

#2-EQUIP THE GUNSLINGER
This wrench will not only add 25 health to your total life, which can mean the difference between laying down a heavy or getting to see what weapon you just got pwnd by. The second point of using this wrench is the price-less and life saving mini sentry.

#3, and maybe the most important, USE THE MINI SENTRY CONSTANTLY
I know I did not ever place one throughout the span of life in this video, but the mini sentry can nearly ensure your domination of the enemy. They are your sacrificial decoys...throw up a mini sentry and enemies automatically turn their attention to destroying it, which is exactly what you want them to do, cause when they take their aim off of you, you close in quickly, and attack them from their side or from behind.**KEEP IN MIND- The mini sentry costs 100 metal, so you will only have 3 shots to hit the target, however if you are at almost point blank range, you will have 200 metal after only 2 successful hits on the enemy. Also, if your mini sentry is not placed in a useful area, then destroy it with your demo PDA(number 5, then 1) and rebuild a new one ANYWHERE around u, just throw it down quickly and keep strafing and moving. Going back to get your sentry and move it only wastes time, and you move slower when carrying it, as well as make yourself a golden target for the sniper you punked with the sentry and widowmaker earlier...lol

As you can see, I got a little confident at the end, shooting from much too far, and not taking time to close the distance and place my shots correctly, not to mention that I was attempting to take down a Pyro and Soldier single handedly head on without the aid of a mini sentry, as opposed to going around to flank or surprise them from a different angle, this scenario will never end well for you

Widowmaker FTW!!
