Brick Throwable "Hit the bricks pal, you're done."

The Brick is a secondary weapon for the Scout. It is a red-colored, three-holed masonry brick. The Brick appears red regardless of which team the user is on, leaving a team-colored trail when thrown.

The Scout only holds one Brick at a time, recharging six seconds after it is thrown. While in the air, it travels in an arc as a projectile. When thrown underwater, it will have reduced velocity. Hitting a target with the Brick will deal 50 damage regardless of range, knocking back the target based on the angle of impact. The amount of damage done has no effect on the knockback. Unlike most weapons that deal knockback, it will force an enemy Heavy to unrev their Minigun, and an enemy Sniper to unscope their Sniper Rifle. It can only deal damage once per throw, cannot deal any damage once it impacts an object, and cannot be picked back up once thrown. The Brick can damage buildings as well as players. Like most projectiles, the Brick can be deflected by an enemy Pyro.
