So do acquiring kills on Strange variants actually do anything besides bolster your ego? If not, meh.

Nope. Given how easily kills can be farmed (can you say "Idle server"?), it'd be terribly broken if weapons gained a bonus with kills. Not to mention that any kind of grind-based weapon leveling system would be utterly idiotic and annoying.

Cosmetic effects based on kill count, maybe, but there's still the issue of "lol I farmed idle kills for 5 hours!!"

I still want to get a shitload of kills on my strange GRUs. That'll be a bigger ego boost than any pansy-ass stickybomb launcher. 0P

They also annoy and distract other players on the server whenever you level up. There should really be a way to turn that notification off (without disabling every other notification at the same time).

Pyros seem to me to be best at cutting the balls off a large group of enemies. Provided you can kill their medic or at least hurt him severely, if you manage to set them all on fire and then retreat (or more likely die) then if your teammates are right behind you they cut through them like a hot knife through a scout on fire.
Yep, this is how you play it. I get most of my kills through "support" kills, that's why I hate medics. They steal my support kills.  :-[

Pyros are also good at stopping ubercharge pairs. Ambush, airblast one or the other away, maybe both, and they've suddenly lost a big advantage. That's what I used to do with pyro on Egypt.
