I mainly play spy on the warpath server whenever i can. i consider myself a decent spy, mainly because my kill to death is usually only + or - 8. I really want to get better at this class, its my favorite, any tips, tricks, you expert spies use to take out the uber ready medic, or just taking out 8 people? any and all tips are appreciated =D
 
Stab then sap, it's more effective.

Also, cooperate with your team and other spies and get them to rush once sentries/etc are disabled so they they can finish them off.

Stand on people's heads whenever possible.

Uncloak during chaos and while moving, you're less likely to be discovered.

Block ubers by crouching cloaked in front of them.

Run in front of a nearly dead medic with ubercharge and await your free spy uber.

Try not to dodge non-crit rockets that are fired directly at you before you've been revealed it's a dead giveaway, unless you're almost dead that is.

Don't move in an offensive direction that the enemy would be likely moving in, you appear with half heath and it's suspicious especially if you just seemingly came out of the spawn.

Go after enemy teleporter entrances, it's cheap points and it slows down the enemy's movements.

Sacrifice yourself to take down dangerous targets.

If you're going to die take somebody or something with you, or pull of a taunt before you're toasted :v

And lastly if you're pointing at the back it will count as a backstab, even if the person is along a corner, this also works from on top of their heads.
 
thanks great videos, i watched the one by evilDaedlus probably 15 times before i even got the game, his video actually made me want the orange box XD
 
Take teleporters, don't cloak, don't disguise, uncloak in front of the enemy, try and sap enemies.
 
i finally found out there is no puff of smoke when changing disguises if you are already cloaked. I still see people that cloak, and change right afterwards, and your just a big puff of smoke walking around. It's alot better to do it this way, because then the other team has no way to tell what your disguise is.
