Some people think that gaming guides should teach the viewer how to use an item or a character in the most optimal, effective way possible. Some people think that guides have to be a serious, well-informed take on a technique or style of play. Some people are stupid. Why bother being optimal with a gun when you can be a true Mann Co. Mercenary and run around using it like a bumbling idiot? It's way more fun if you do that.

lazy’s comment has 0 likes? What?
8:38 this part is funnier knowing that SoundSmith actually slammed his face into the desk for the sound effect
I like how he called the speed buff “Condition 32” as is the sv_cheats command “Add_cond 32” which gives you a speed buff (or something along the lines of that)
OH THAT'S WHAT CONDITION_32 MEANS? I've been lost googling what it meant, since I had never heard the term before and it was said so naturally I thought it was common knowledge. Thank you for mentioning it.
@@dirkmon97 Ngl, I'm not hip with the online vocabulary anymore and my first thought was that someone had reinvented the rules of the internet list (the one that no one remembers anymore except for rule 34).
And rule 26@@helenanilsson5666
Yeah, just take the underscore out of the command. "addcond 32".
Condition 32 is specificity the Disciplinary Action speed buff, though I imagine the Big Earner and Conch apply the same effect (seems easier to do it this way to prevent them stacking). The Conch does have a separate buff (condition 29, TF_COND_REGENONDAMAGEBUFF) which I assume just applies 32 to prevent the aforementioned stacking problem.
That "Eat your heart out kunai, we're playing shitty demoknight now" fucking killed me man.
I am currently renaming my big earner to "Discount Eyelander"

Can’t wait for Mann’s Guide 4, where Soundsmith and Clockwerk Smurf use the Half-Zatoichi’s healing properties to fight off *Corporate Entity*
Starting at 10:32 I really appreciate the use of music from The Munchables. Loved that game growing up and the iconic music and chaotic gameplay really match the tone of the video perfectly!
Gave a like solely for the “we’re playing shitty demoknight” at the end
SAME BRO

Big Earner Spy is Eyelander Demoman on hard mode
JUST for that? Bummer
Haha, Jonathan, it is Back Time.
Haha jonathan
Jonathan nob
haha jonathan you are stabbing my daughter
"Rewind time"
yes
this video is genuinely a masterpiece
Like, on point comedy, gameplay AND great editing? Unbelievable. Even on 9th rewatch
A suggestion for all Big Earner spies: the stats on your knife are basically "get one more kill before you die"
"this medic... doesn't want back time good decision." My day has been made.
Me everytime the enemy sniper misses me and hit the soldier I'm healing:
Hello touhou fan
Medicine!!!!! Reference?
that joke got me good hot damn! also, 1k likes and no replies? that's odd
Lol, didn't even notice.
This is literally just:
“Soundsmith does his bills, the movie, the video game.”
more like "soundsmith started hoarding strange big earners to sell" like seriously, them things are at 1 key now edit: nevermind i'm stupid, they've apparently been that expensive for a while now
6:18 As a long-time Warframe fan, seeing you named your knife John Prodman got a big chuckle out of me
im not doing the index for an hour lol
Holy cow the animation on the bodies and the expression shown through body language is just, DAMN! I don't even want to think about the time that went into the smooth movement during the voice booth bits. Just coodos on stellar animation man, you'd make cartoons with decent budgets jealous.
Good to see the Tim Allen Zoom joke truly came full circle.
(Seriously though this video is superb!)
Yoo hello quality youtuber
timothy alleyway facetiousness
whats the tim allen zoom joke
@@1_1bman it was in Weapon Stereotypes
Bosh, always where I least expect you
Jokes on you, I use the Big Earner and I die only 325 times each match!
Don't talk to me! I am famous! Don't dislike my good good GOOD videos! Don't talk to me, dear gar
Impossible
But you get 2 kills for each death right?
Garka went do fast with the big earner he broke space and time just to watch this video early
2 days ago what
I liked the ending scene when it was just 2 friends laughing together. It was really pure
This is an incredibly well put together video! The jokes and references were all top notch, very well done and thank you.
2:44 the pyro facepalms instead of turning around like the other blu players, presumably because it was their responsibility to spycheck and they failed. Crazy level of detail.
The medic's in the family guy death pose as well, the amount of references and detail is just top notch
I specifically storyboarded in that the pyro also got facestabbed lol
My head must be high on anime then because I thought it was supposed to be a JoJo pose.
Look at Heavy and Scout when Spy starts running too :)
I'd leave a like, but I don't want to ruin your perfect like count.
So this comment shall serve as my like!
Corporate: ok soundsmith we need you to talk about being safe as a good example for kids
SoundSmith immediately recording his next lines: Spy’s all about being a slippery little bastard
0:28 That opening goes hard
There wasn't a second of this video where I wasn't smiling from ear to ear. It's too amazing
I can’t believe SoundSmith is artificially inflating the prices of bumper cars and switchblades. This is so sad.
Shit i should buy a bumper cart and sell it later
Thanks god i bought mine before this video.
6:54 the COMPLETE difference between the setups when you "lost funding" was one of the best bits I've seen.
They even swapped from SFM to Gmod. That's some good attention to detail!
@@General_C it probably caused less problems too
I too love Chowder
i've never seen a video of you before but youtube kept suggesting me this video and after months of doing so i just ended up watching it and i had no idea in what kind of video i was jumping into. It was really fun, good job!
This is THE best video ever, no seriously it actually is. The sheer amount of effort put into this is staggering!
I love how Tim Allen is in the credits
Can’t believe you’ve made it to celebrity cameos. I’m impressed
have you ever heard of zoom by tim allen
“Why is there no more Mann’s Guide episodes?”
*Shows Animation*
“This is why”
On a serious note, I genuinely love this and hope for more. We’ll be there to support ya.
Yeah, a long time between these is worth it for the insane quality.
I ruined 696 likes :D
Honestly I felt some of the sfm was unnecessarily realistic, like too much work was put it, the final product could have been 3 steps down and still be perfectly fine. Like I get it strive for the best but if he put out half the quality at a much higher rate nobody would be complaining, jus my thoughts
@@mcdickcle8487 nah he can’t do that now because in the first video he did it well stepping down in quality would be very obvious and probably raise a lot of questions
@@mcdickcle8487 sometimes people want to make projects with a lot of soul and effort because they enjoy it
I loved it when he said ‘’It’s back’ time’’ and started backing all over the other players
The editing, SFM and script of this video is insane. Congratulations dude this is impressive
When Soundsmith drops a mann's guide, it's like TF2 promoting a weapon in the new major update and the market of that weapon goes stonks
Im gonna buy a strange big earner just to be sure....
I guess we'll see, I never thought about the market influence **A Mann's Guide** might have
love your phrasing btw
There onto him though!! Gonna be rough x,D
thank you for that 500 likes I don't get that much lol
@@maildaemon he inflated the strange big earner LMAO
Honestly, one of my favorite things about this whole series is that it feels like an actual show you would watch. The set, acting, and movement really make this feel real, and I can’t forget about the sound design. And KJ and Soundsmith (in canon) are well crafted. I can’t wait for the next episode.
I completely agree. This exceeded my possible expectations.
I like to imagine that the intro occurs in the big earner spy’s mind every time he respawns (basically every 5 seconds).
I love the sound design at 2:48 i love it so much I can feel the time you spend on it
Spy noobs: “Ok we’ve stabbed someone, what should we do now?”
Big Earner: “What if we run away?”
oversimplified reference, i love it
Or even stab more? *eyes glow red*
Big Earner: "Wait, wait guys. What if we run away?"
Spy Mains: "... GREAT IDEA!"
"For those sensitive to flashing lights, here are timestamps to avoid."
Me, the epileptic: [clicks on timestamps to see what to avoid]
I really hope this is a joke
R.I.P
the ham shank is now dead, this is so sad
I dont know how other people feel about the "corporate" part to this video but i like the dynamic of you and clockwork arguing while a bigger force is above you trying to get its way.
that beggining animation is top notch, even small details like the knife falling back down are amazing, can't wait for the rest of the vid
holy deadringer... wow, THE REVERSE STAIR JUMP
This episode's animation was just... Considerably impressive
Spy's face as he considers his options at 2:55 ? Golden.
Not to mention copying Joseph's running animation, but instead of holding the stone of Aja, it's replaced with the big earner
@@furjaden8553 I'm a loser that hasn't seen JoJo but i appreciate any references to it in exaggerated animation xD
literal drip heavy goku behind him too
Cute oc
@@furjaden8553 NINDAYONDOOOOOOOOO
"we're playing shitty demoknight now" and that will be forever the best way to describe the current state of that weapon. Funny stuff
can we appreciate the animated clips in here and also the way soundsmith connected the safe way to play the hard way the "sponsor" and the funds parts
fantastic work. the spy's own knife backstabbing him after he gets gibbed in the intro, the backwards long jump reference, the hats on the olympics spectators, just phenomenal attention to detail. and I really appreciate the thorough captions you put on these.
I really love how this series has evolved, the "in studio" bits are just great addition.
I personally really dislike it, it doesn't really fit for the theme of the video, but I know this guy is just messing around so it makes sense if I put it that way
Same I really love these in studio clips
@@DankDimensionMemes Honest question, how does it not fit the theme?
@@syweb2 I only care about the weapon itself I'm not interested in silly sfm stuff and promotion
@@DankDimensionMemes fair enough, then again, ive seen all of soundsmith’s content and its just him dicking around with his friends and personally, i love it so much, no forced comedy or really really serious stuff, its just them having fun
this series makes me giggle like a little girl with excitement when i see it in my recommended
it's like a late birthday gift
I love this series
Oh my God, you won't believe i did just that when i Saw it Jesus christ
I smiled so wide when I saw this
Yep
can we just appreciate the quality of the animation and the video as a whole?
This video is such a masterpiece, I've re-watched so many times I lost count
"we're playing shity demoknight now" that got me good
Same
"pick better spy" is hilarious
This editing is on point, honestly, on par imo with Lazy's "How It Feels To Play" series.
Honestly yeah, the sfm gogs were legit amazing too.
@@cookiebombcasualemail5284 gogs
Some bits even seem to be in his style
Clear line of inspiration, I'd say. Great to see!
EXACTLY what I thought when I saw spy explode at the beginning there
I’m being deadass here, no UA-cam video has made me laugh more consistently than this one. Good job, my mann.
To this day I'm still impressed that TF2 is this old and nobody got time of the title "A Mann's Guide" before Soundsmith
these are absolutely hilarious, it’s clear you’re having much more fun than you were with stereotypes
*Clockwerk Smurf* doesn't just play on another level. He is in a different dimension!
Also, Cars is a underrated masterpiece.
spades
Clockwerk smurf lives in the 5th dimension
great band
Just one different dimension?
Do you have time to hear about our lord and savior lightning mcqueen?
The SFM bits are lovely to look at, very nice animation style.
5:37 is this a reference to the joke mcqueen had to make infront of his rusteez fans?
Fucking hilarious that the loss in funding forced the animation to devolve from SFM to GMOD. Very nice touch, very 2011.
Yes
ironic because sfm is free and gmod is 10 bucks
Today we learned:
1. Dead ringer bad
2. *SUICIDE BOMBER*
lol he talks so boringly about dead ringer that I starting to believe him xD
I love how you even had a referrence to the Beggar's video in here with the soldier flying by, good stuff Mr Audioforger
I absolutely love that you clearly had fun making this video
Ever since I messed around with SFM for a few days I've appreciated SFM bits in videos so much more. It's super impressive what people can do with that software.
Yeah, same here. That program is such a mess, it always impresses me when people use it so well. I somehow got it to blue screen my laptop, which hasn't been blue screened by anything else before, or since. That program scares me
It's in beta, im sure its gonna get better

this made me laugh way to much after a terrible day, really appreciate it
SoundSmith: The big earner drops you down to arguably the most important damage threshold in the entire game: 100 health.
Conniver's Kunai: Am I a joke to you?
what he means is that if somebody would shoot at you, it doesnt make that much of a difference if you have 70 or 100 health. however, it DOES make a big difference if you are at 100 as opposed to 125 health
Yes
@@eisgnom7383mk
Atleast the kunai gives you enough hp to take any explosive weapon
I meann the only important interaction that changes going from 100 to 70 is shotguns. If you have 100 hp a stock shotgun doesn't 1 shot you (only panic attack or frontier justice crits would) but at 70 health it would. You still die to 1 pill, 1 rocket, or 2 melee hits either way.
Thanks for making this, I'm excited for my pipes to one-shot all the spies I see now :)
Hey PKBeats :)
Oh no
a huge W for all demomains
Unfortunately you forgot the existence of the DR, which explains why you're entire team is dead and the enemy spy has a killstreak.
I am engie main. So god damn it sound smith. They gonna be fast as fuck.
The zoom by Tim Allen joke threw me off so hard because I wasn't expecting to see it again
Same 😂
Neanderthal drug dealer time
It's the Big Earner. You should have anticipated it. XD
@@somerandomgamer8504 OOMP OOMP OOMP OOMP OOMP
Easily one of the most creative videos I’ve seen in a long time.
9:04 the mind of the average mid-scoring casual spy that has like 4 hats when they get a single stab
that is some top tier animation and sound design my guy. stellar.
I loved the copyright friendly version of real gone, reminds me of better times.
I can see why it took so long
“Censorship is telling a half decent player making a tutorial to not take risks because a newbie using that advice will constantly die.”
-Mark Twain (probably)
“Censorship is nerfing the bison because a pro player can sorta abuse it”
-Mark Twain
Alright that was a good one. I'm terrible at spy but playing him as a more momentarily patient Scout sounds like it might be possible. Good video.
And hey, I paid attention to the auidio in the beginning.
This was awesome. So creative. Love it
KJ's really getting the hang of voice acting. Very underrated.
I always liked KJ.
KJ can't count to three or turn off a mic
Wydm lol he has to be himself and read a script
KJ is top tier waifu
HIS VOICE ACTING SUCKS 😂😂😂
I can’t believe it’s zoom by Tim Allen, it’s finally here.
dammit I was gonna make that joke,
But I guess you were more Zoom by Tim Allen than I was
I made the joke, and then I saw this
cudos to the high energy intro. Definitely grabs my attention and also relates the the weapon, so yeah! That was an awesome choice!
I like how in the all eyes will be on you part it shows different stats like side stab matador face stab and understab
I can imagine Soundsmith sitting at his desk for like an hour finding different fonts for the Back Time bit
Ancient powerpoint fonts lol
I think you mean W O R D A R T
Them losing funding and then turning into GMod is way funnier than it should be.
Kristolee show is fucking amazing.
The pure energy at the end is the best part definitely
god it really seems like y'all had fun with this one. Hats off to yah.
I love how he reenacted the beginning of Cars just for this weapon alone
Yeah compared to the Kunai in let’s say x100 servers, at least you are gaining around 23,000 health on backstab compared to your one health. The big earner essentially turns you into a Touhou bullet hell main character
the touhou 11 reimu c shot type experience
LOL FUNNIEST SHIT I EVER HEARD OF I just imagine Spy racing around a X100 or X1000 race map and everyone picks scout getting speed by Babyface and Crit-a-cola, all of a sudden you see a spy with a dead ringer and The Big Earner dashing past you, and you think "If this is only Scout... Why is the other classes allowed?
2:44 i love how everyones like "oh no there is a spy" then pyro is just "i am a failure as a pyro main"
And of course the medic has the family guy stock death pose.
I think the pyro is doing that jojo pose where he covers one eye and the other shines menacingly
@@KounterOficial nah he covers both eyes.
Pause the video then go to here 2:59 you will see Goku :>
I was expecting goku drip but I got a jojo pose. You have betrayed me and everything I stand for
Neat trick to purposefully make a spelling mistake so that people would comment about it, boosting the algorithms recognition of this video
This has to be one of the best videos I've ever watched on this site.
I'm surprised you didn't talk about the invis watches natural damage resistances - that 20% means that your effective health is once again boosted to 125 HP allowing you tank all the things you would have tanked normally but only under cloak. Activating cloak when youre out of position and under fire is a good idea to abuse that damage resistance in a run away.
Wait, what? This is a thing? I literally never knew this about cloak lmao
yeap, all invis watches have some damage resistance and wash off debuffs faster
@@lemonadogirl4082 stock and the c&d have 20% resistance, while the dead ringer has 60% and ramps down to 20%.
@@gregorymirabella1423 Oh, I thought it was 75% at max. Thanks for clarifying :)
@@Nightmare_52 It's a really nice buff to Spy's survivability, especially considering how vulnerable Spies are after getting picks. It was a great addition to the Fun Mettle Update :)
