I've heard that the new Spicicle knife is freakishly OP when combined with the DR... A lot of people on the SPUF are predicting a nerf for it and the pyro flamer fairly quickly simply due to how incredibly powerful they are currently.

Oh, and for those out of the know, as an engineer whip out your fronteer justices. Seriously, put the widowmaker away for now. The FJ is bugged currently where just getting ONE crit via a sentry with it basically makes every single shot of yours a crit, with every weapon, even after you run out of kill-crits.

I read those complaining posts at SPUF too. I checked some of their BP and guess what...they don't even own the new knife. They are basing all of it on the above video. The guy who created the video has played TF2 for a long time and he's good at it...don't expect any regular spy to be anywhere as good as him.

Also, the meltdown of a knife can be a huge downside. You see a chain of enemy and want to stab 'em? Oh wait you can't, enemy pyro just melted your melee! I know spy can use pistol against pyro but pyro has let's see (a) airblast (b) melee (3) flame thrower. the problem isn't this melee. the problem is enforcer.

True, but it's still a disturbingly good/easy way to evade pyros if you're running the DR/Spicicle. And I do agree heavily with the enforcer as well (that thing REALLY needs a better downside...) and that a lot of the people on SPUF either have no idea what they're talking about or have no real playtime with it to boot. It's just one of those things that some people can see will probably be coming... Eventually... When episode 3 is released...

Also, disregard my previous FJ remark, they've already fixed the inf. crit bug as well as the mmrph bug where you could bypass the taunt that plays by jumping before it goes off.
 
well if anyones trading any of these besides the flamethrower (I already have one) I'll gladly buy them
