Uses the default watch, which is clearly the manliest way of playing: http://www.youtube.com/user/tf2gentleman Sample, this is from our teams highlander games, in the ETF2L highlander challenge Yea I watched those when you posted them up before. Excellent vids and really educational too. The problem I'm having (I think) is more to do with the basic mechanics of the spy, more than actual play style. Thanks anyway tho h3r1n6 and thanks KtheZ for the tips too. I'll probably hop on tonight and get some more practice in.  | ||

I hate TF2's explanation of stats: for example: +25% reduction in flame damage. There's an increase of a reduction in an after-effect and its in blue text. | ||

As both the Cloak and Dagger and the Dead Ringer are unlocked via achievements, if you play around enough you'll have access to them and can figure out what works best for you. So far, in my very limited Spy play time, I've found that while acting is useful it's generally better if they never see you to begin with - some people just spy check anyway, regardless of your acting. But then I like the Cloak and Dagger the most so far - so go figure. | ||

edit- nvm, just read the wiki page on it. I really just like using the default loadout, but if I'm feeling cheeky and my aim is on point, I'll whip out the ambassador. Not a fan of cloak and dagger. I thought I would love it, as using disguises feels so luck-based, but in most games you really do need them regardless. In fact, playing the spy in general feels very luck-based at times. My backstabs kept failing me today too and just, either not registering, or not registering as backstabs.  | ||

I'm starting to think the game just isn't balanced in mind for this kind of play. uber a demo/heavy/soldier or spy cap | ||

Uber'd heavy Sap them as a spy (probably the hardest if there are a ton of engineers) | ||

Spy sapping or Bonk Scout and the rest of the team follows in behind the demo. If you're ubering a heavy, make sure to block the rockets and bullets from him with your uber medic so he doesn't get extremely pushed back and can take out the sentries. DoubleZee: That's why I play Arena :3 | ||
