Hello guys, this is Louis VI dit le GROS from the DOD:S division,
I'm currently making a guide for the spy that will show all the class information such as : His weapons, advantages and disadvantages versus all the other classes, tips and tricks and advanced techniques.
You might be asking, why are you making a guide when you're not even playing TF2 every day ? Well, first of all it might not seem like it, but I've been playing TF2 almost since it camed out, I bought the orange Box on December 25th 2007 and have been a Steam User since then, and I started playing spy almost every 3 day or sometimes every week since 2 years now. The main purpose of this guide is to show players new to the class how lethal it is and how viable it can be to the team.
Everyday, I will post it with my newest advancements in it, right now I almost finished the weapon section.
I hope this shall help everyone, and I'm thinking getting it out by next week or the week after but most likely by the end of next week.
If you have any ideas for new sections in the guide feel free to post them right here in this thread or just PM me trough my forum account or just add me as your friend on STEAM.
*Edit* Also, when it's finish feel free to modify it and post it back on the forums for more details about the class so that everyone can enjoy finding new techniques and stuff about it !
Here is where I'm:
IMPORTANT NOTE BEFORE READING: I MADE THIS GUIDE JUST TO SHOW NEW PLAYERS TO THE CLASS TO SHOW THEM HOW TO PLAY PROPERLY THE SPY AND ADVANCED SPY PLAYERS, TECHNIQUES THAT THEY MIGHT HAVE NOT HEARD OF.
Introduction:
The spy at my eyes is one of the most viable class in the team because he can sap sentries, disturb the enemy etc… However, the spy is one of the hardest classes in Team Fortress 2 but can be really lethal if used properly. This guide will cover the Spy Weapons, Advantages and disadvantages against other classes, tips and tricks, advanced techniques.
The Spy weapons :
The revolver: It’s the spy primary weapon, but in most cases, people consider it as their secondary weapon because they use the Knife more often then the revolver. The revolver holds 6 bullets and carry 30 bullets in total (24+6=30 if you didn’t realise) It deals around 55-60 damage per shot. The main problem with the spy’s revolver is that it’s really noisy and draws a lot of attention. I personally recommend to use the Ambassador if you have one ( I will talk about it later) is more effective is you are really good at getting headshots. However, the revolver is still a decent weapon but I wouldn’t trust it on my life if I was you.
The sapper: For the sapper they’re isn’t much to say, it has unlimited ammo, it’s used to sap the enemy engineer buildings and that is pretty much it. It can be only destroy by the engineer wrench and it takes 2 hits by the wrench to be removed off the engineer’s buildings. Me what I usually do is when an engineer got his back turned to the sentry, I backstab him and In a fraction of a second I switch to my sapper and sap the sentry, it works 85 % of the cases ( I will talk about this technique more detailed in the tips and tricks section.) Also, here is the amount of time it takes to destroy an engineer building with a sapper:
• Level 1: 6 seconds
• Level 2: 7 seconds
• Level 3: 9 seconds
The knife: It’s probably the most favourite weapon of all people who use to spy, like all melee weapon it got unlimited usage. It deals around 30-55 damage, when it’s a backstab it’s an insta-kill. The knife is very useful to the whole team, for example: A medic-heavy pair , just get back behind the medic Stab him after kill the heavy and you got one potential team damager down. (Remember always pick your targets carefully.)
The disguise kit: Basically, the disguise kit is just to disguise yourself as the enemy team,
This link pretty much summarized it up: http://tf2wiki.net/wiki/Disguise
Personally, it’s your choice of what disguise you should use or not, me I prefer being a soldier or a demoman, It’s pretty much you that chooses what is more suitable for you. The disguise for me I think it’s is good but a bit useless since pretty much everyone knows how to identify a disguised spy.
The invisibility watch: It’s really good for hiding yourself from enemies and after pick your target and kill him, the cloak duration is around if I’m not mistaken 15-20 seconds something around this number, but can be recharged by picking up fallen weapons or ammo. NOTE: A spy can lose his cloak completely by receiving jaratee.
Spy update unlockables:
The Cloak and dagger: It’s a spy invisibility watch that regenerates by standing still or not using it, so you can stay cloaked as long as you want just by standing still, I would recommend this watch to players who like to pick their targets very carefully and make sure that every shot counts. NOTE: when moving this spy watch loses more cloak power than the normal invisibility watch.
Also, it is in a .doc that i'm gonna upload on rapid share so you can view it, it contains many images. rapidshare link:

Hopping that everyone will find something that will interest them in this guide,
As Always,
