In Team Fortress 2, certain weapons fire projectiles. Projectiles, unlike hitscan bullets, do not travel instantaneously across the map but rather at a preset speed and often subject to engine physics. This speed also differs between the weapons used to launch the projectile. Projectiles are not affected by Lag compensation, likely due to technical limitations surrounding the engine's physics applied on projectiles.

The Compression Blast ability of the Flamethrower and Degreaser can reflect all projectiles save for the syringe. Once reflected they will switch ownership to the Pyro whom reflected the projectile (unless said projectile is a stickybomb -- they are simply rolled on the ground when blasted), and deal Mini-Crit damage on enemies they hit. In addition, when colliding mid-air some projectiles may deflect opposing ones, or destroy them completely.
