An Australian YouTuber who purchased a rare Team Fortress 2 weapon for creating YouTube content says he plans to claim it on tax next year.

This may come as a shock, but it might be the first time someone has tried to turn a digital asset (tài sản số) into a tax write-off in Australia.

The story, first reported over at Crikey, and republished by Smart Company, concerns YouTuber elmaxo, a content creator with around 200,000 subscribers. Team Fortress 2 videos are the backbone of elmaxo’s channel, which he produces as a full-time job. Many of his videos are about meeting and beating sky-high personal challenges. His most recent video details his quest to rack up 10,000 kills in just seven days.

To do this, elmaxo investigated which of the game’s many class and weapon combos would be most efficient for raking in quick kills. As a Soldier main, elmaxo initially tried to find a reliable way to hit his target without changing off his favoured class. However, he eventually settled on the Pyro and the Phlogistinator.

There are TF2 veterans reading this piece and rolling their eyes because they now know exactly how this is going to go.

The Phlogistinator, or Phlog as it’s known in the community, is an unlockable flamethrower weapon for the Pyro that asks the player to make a simple exchange — utility for power. The Phlog doesn’t have the Pyro’s much-beloved airburst secondary fire. Airburst is typically used to deflect incoming projectiles and extinguish any teammates that may be on fire. It’s an extremely useful part of the Pyro’s overall kit, and sacrificing it is a brutal ask. However, the trade-off is that it allows the Pyro to harness the fires of Hell itself. The Phlog’s inherent mechanic is that it has an MMMPH bar that fills with every bit of damage you dish out. Once filled, MMMPH can be activated to provide the Pyro with a short stream of Critical Damage, similar to an Uber Charge. In these moments, the Phlog Pyro becomes a menace, tearing through clumped-up enemy teams in a flash.
