    This tier list was released early because we covered the Spy and Medic in one stream (not a lot of items to discuss for either class). So expect the Medic Tier list before next Thursday as well.
    Thanks for watching guys, we're halfway there! You all seem to be enjoying this series, which makes me happy. It's been fun streaming them, and also fun seeing what you all have to say about the game. Have a good one!

    I’ve always liked the idea to give the Your Eternal Reward back it’s old stats from the Saharan Spy set with it’s reduced decloak sound volume and maybe the 0.5 second longer cloak blink time to definitely make it more useful, especially if you’re trying to backstab someone while undisguised.

      it's my favourite knife, despite what people say about how easy is to counter a spy, in the heat of a battle this is really perfect for picking target and being completely unnoticed, enough to go away or pick one more enemy
      Plus i love the gimmick against engineers, where you can't essentially get close to a sentry, but if you do, you can just kill whoever is near without being destroyed in a nanosecond

    I remember back when I played TF2 religiously, around 2012-2014, that there was a glitch, bug, exploit, oversight, etc. that allowed you to press F to check your teammates' loadouts while they were running around. If you did that to someone on your team, you saw what they had equipped, but if you did that to a disguised spy, you saw either his loadout or stock (kind of hard to remember after so many years, but it was a dead give away). You basically could mash F on anybody looking the tiniest bit suspicious and instantly know if they were a spy. I'm glad that got fixed, since it pretty much made any spy trying to blend in think that you're cheating when you shoot at them randomly.
    I don't know if this was well known at the time, and probably got lost to time, but it definitely made spy extremely weak to play while disguised. Also, of course, nowadays it displays the loadout of the person the spy is disguised as properly, so don't think you found a new broken spy-check.

    The c&d discussion was the most accurate thing I've ever heard. When I first started playing spy, I always hated it because I would always run out of cloak at the most unfortunate times. Then I got the cloak and dagger, and that really changed my playstyle. I played with only the c&d for maybe a month, idk, then realized I was going really slowly, and not being able to pick up cloak while invisible really sucks. I went back to stock, (now being more experienced and knowing more about ammo locations) and realized it was always a really good choice. What you said has never been more accurate about this weapon: It's the training wheels for new spies.

    Fun fact about the Diamondback: 13:15 Zesty mentions how it originally got crits by only doing backstabs before also getting it by sapping buildings alongside a backstab. However, it was the other way around. Originally, the diamondback could only get its crits through sapping engineer buildings. This was later reworked because if the enemy team didn’t have an engineer at all, you essentially were playing with a worse stock revolver that had a damage penalty. That’s why it’s such a terrifying gun nowadays. Because of how mediocre it was in the past.
    Essentially, it was the Manmelter for spy in the sense of if the enemy didn’t have one specific class on their team, your weapon couldn’t really reach its full potential and was just holding you back.

      yeah at the range you can hit heads, i found myself hitting consistantly with the revolver, and since the revolver has no cooldown between headshots, it's imo overall better and easier to use, the benefits of the headshots only come against light classes where the follow up shot can kill them, or when picking injured target, i'm ok with removing the infinite range 102 headshot, but it should just deal consistantly 102 damage, no damage falloff. it's preatty pointless to track a tiny head for 60 damage, when i could have emptied the whole clip with the revolver hoped to get 2 or 3 shots and get the kill anyway

    Thoughts (coming from someone who has most time on Spy) :
    Diamondback I have some ideas. 1)Mini crits instead of crits 2) Cut the clip in half 3) make it only get crits from backstabs and sentries
    Kunai I agree with your thoughts to make that overheal go away faster. I love the kunai but Jesus can I feel guilty at times when I should’ve died
    YER I think needs a small buff. lower or remove the faster cloak drain and its better I use it in the set it’s part of and it’s pretty fun to me. Without the Letranger I would likely unequip it or use it on some maps or modes.
    Spycicle IDK what to do tbh. Idk if you saw it but someone mentioned maybe you can determine when it melts when you take fire damage so (should I use the melt and get away or try and get the kill but risk dying before I get it) idk I thought it was an interesting idea.
    For the red tape recorder maybe increase the time it takes to destroy a building ?
    The enforcer I would say change the dmg bonus to be universal so it always does more damage making more sense for the slower firing speed IF needed it can be lowered since I don’t make games and that would need testing.
    Also I love the idea of Spy pressing a key to move his normal speed when disguised as slower classes. Would make me disguise as Soldier Demo and Heavy more often.
    Also idk if it’s possible but remove the ability to use console and use cl interp. It’s such bs and I don’t like it when I’m doing good as Spy and someone accuses me of using it. Like fuck me for being good or you being bad.
    Love the video Zesty and I cannot wait to see Medic since you hate the Vaccinator and I have no idea why. Maybe because I use it and I rarely fight other medics using it.

      2)No, also it wouldn't fix the issue with DB in Highlander, the reason it's banned there is because teams are forced to always have engy, and it makes it very easy to farm crits from teleporters hense why
      3) Idea is actually great... I came up with it like years ago(although I suggested no crits from any buildings) but whatever Idc, just please do the nerf DB to shitter, it's not even close to being op and it's only op in Highlander due to the format forcing enemy team to always have engineer. Without buildings farming, DB sucks hense it's not used in 6s or even regular Tf2 where sometimes teams don't have engies.

    One change I would like on the disguise kit is how much you can mimic your siguise target. Like if you disguise as a sniper you can also do a scope in animation so that you actually look like a sniper, or you could also do heavys gun rev animation to make yourself look like a heavy. Both of these actions don't require you to shoot your gun so you wouldent lose your disguise.

    Holy crap, this has been addicting series to watch through in a single day: just perfect balance of casual mindset and good deal of great points being made with dosage of comical impressions... I'm lovin' it! :D
    I can definitely agree on the Ambassador being in absolutely fine state as it is, since even Valve themselves back in the day did point out about "giving a class that can cloak an ability to head-shot at infinite range being bit too whack" even for a casual setting is pretty understandable. And while I am not certainly best with aiming to the heads of enemies I still do find current Ambassador having more intense "all-or-nothing" fights up close where with steady aiming and timing (or just by luck in my case as I'm a clumsy spy) makes it more dopanine inducing experience to land that first critical head-shot that makes the receiver immediately recoil in shock before falling to a follow-up shot or alternatively with first shot doing normal damage then the critical shot making the kill.... AAAAAH, SO MUCH AMUSEMENT AND DOPAMINE! Perfect mix to keep me occasionally trying out spy compared to "camping/hide-n-seek simulator" it allowed doing back in the day.
    Diamondback is definitely in need of balancing since it really is obviously just """better Ambassador""" for just doing literally what Spy is meant to do to the point that I legit always shoot any crits off with it to keep it as discount stock for memes. That said, I do believe there could be simple approach in the idea of an occasional "power-bank" without complications of giving 300% increase to damage at any range...
    Which leads to some of my balancing vision for Diamondback being as follows:
    - Remove the damage penalty to make single shot deal same as stock
    - Apply a 20-25% slower firing rate to the weapon.
    - Change the guaranteed Crits from sapping and stabbing into Mini-Crits
    - Change the bright glowing gun to have team-colored electric sparks as visual for mini-crit primed Diamondback.
    - No random crits.
    This basically could make combating spies using Diamondback much more on the even ground as now he isn't pulling a free 102 shot from sapping jose.gonzales2007's things to blast at you with full firing rate. Instead, this change would provide Spy with a gun that has a solid 65 damage/shot from any distance thanks to the mini-crits (48 x 1.35 = 64.8) which also negate damage-falloff: basically making Diamondback into more methodical, mid-range option with occasional buff to slap enemies with a stock melee hit damage that seems more fair compared to the normal crits (sure, it could still 3-shot medics from afar, thou that's better than getting two shot at least in my eyes).
    As of Enforcer, yeah... the poor bastard really could use more defined and fun use over the really specific counters to mere 8 damage resistance types (with the piercing being mostly bugged anyways). Of course the previous design was just direct upgrade to stock simply for having default higher damage/shot, which isn't much of direction I'd wanna take it understandably. Instead, your comment on Diamondback having faster firing speed (kind of like fanning shots from fast pulling of weapon) did get me ponder a possible role for Enforcer

    Remove spawn team highlight, ever since it got introduced, playing spy is frustrating as hell. Any person with more than 5 hours in the game immediately knows where you are when they're dead/freshly respawned. I personally think the DR pre buffs and nerfs was more balanced than it is now. The speed buff is ridiculous, it makes it so I can immediately uncloak and circle strafe a whole team while waiting for the cloak to regen, whereas before, everyone just raced you to an ammo pack and instakills you. Give it increased cloak regen time, revert ammo change, remove speed and give back the armor imo.
    Why nerf the amby instead of the diamondback? The Amby feels horrible now, randomly missing or getting a headshot when I didn't deserve to? The diamondback is ridiculous, I don't want to use it at all because I never feel like I earned the crits for doing my job as a spy and I'd much rather feel good about my aim.
    Kunai NEEDS to be paired with the DR, I know that's a hot take but it's completely worthless without it if you aren't an actual god at spy, and if you ARE a god at spy you would take the combo so you don't instantaneously lose your whole HP pool from some joe shmo firing a rocket at your feet. Sure you get the ~200 health, but I don't think people fully understand that it already drains plenty fast, and if you take any damage other than chip, it's all gone in seconds. The amount of work you need to put into being relevant as spy AT ALL makes you a "sweaty" player. If you aren't putting that work in, you bottom frag every game and are absolutely dead weight on the team.
    Obviously by my comment, I'm a degenerate spy main (even though all TF2 players are degenerates anyway) so feel free to disagree, but this comes from 8+ years of maining the class, and I feel like my opinion is somewhat valid. Spy is not viable, and in the worst state to date out of all 9 classes, Valve, pls fix.

    @Raelyn 3 роки тому +73

    Severely underestimating the Enforcer. There's nothing situational about being able to do true damage to a Wrangled Sentry. Literally the only weapon of its kind that can do it, directly counters one of the strongest unlocks in the game. Engies get fucked over by it because they can't outrepair your damage to it whilst the Wrangler shield is active. Plus when disguised it can 2 shot a light health class, that's honestly pretty darn good. On average it's not as great as the other Revolvers true, but it has an incredibly powerful niche in just being able to piss off Wrangler Engies, who are arguably one of the main reason matches can turn aids. Definitely doesn't need a rework, it's a brilliant option in my comp games, as well as pubs from time to time. I also think you're undervaluing what Spycicle gives too. True it has a major negative, but those small upsides can really add up in certain games. It can be recharged with ammo packs too, so it's not like you have to sit around doing nothing when you've lost it. I really value it half the time.
    Aside from that, I agree with pretty much every other take. Glad to see others sharing my thoughts on the Kunai, I hate it lol. Also love seeing some advocating for the Ambassador. Revolver will outperform it on average, but Amby can pull off some clutch shit close range that Revolver can't, and I still value it for that. Definitely underrated. Plus it's still just fun af. I wish it was a LITTLE stronger at longer ranges, but it's fine the way it is.

  • @MrxD-cg5xs
    @MrxD-cg5xs 3 роки тому +1

    Spy always struck me as the much more balanced version of Sniper.
    both of them are glass cannon classes, both have essentially an instakill at their disposal and both cant really contest the objective very well, so they are stuck supporting the other classes who do it by picking off key enemy targets.
    yet Sniper does so at any distance from across the map, essentially sniping from their spawn door without having to take any risks at all, while spy is forced to first sneak around the enemy, blend in, pick vulnerable and isolated targets and then strike when no one expects it, after which they are left open and vulnerable to everyone else around and need to make their grand escape.
    its honestly just a much more fair way to implement an instakill ability, as it is actually really hard to use effectively and cant be used to instantly stop an enemy push dead in its tracks (as Sniper can, considering that he is never in any danger after shooting the first shot, so he can just keep picking off heads until the enemies get out of his sightlines).
    now i get thats mostly due to the way they were intended to function and changing anything on Sniper to fight that would be pretty pointless, as technically speaking there is nothing wrong with him doing that (and his strength is mostly based on the map he plays on - large, open fields for example are great for Snipers, while tight corridors arent as optimal).
    however, there are still a few things that i find im to be just too good at - the previously mentioned ability to gain access to an insta kill at any distance to his target in my main problem. it allows Sniper to not only be a huge nuissance on long ranges (as he was intended to be), but also to dominate close range encounters, if his reaction time is good enough (just look at the bots here).
    compare that to Spy who has a huge restriction of not only being behind his enemies, but also having to be in melee range to apply his insta kill. its just a lot more fair for everyone involved, as a Spy who got busted is not going to be able to do much to his enemies and has to somehow escape the situation he is in. Sniper on the other hand is also supposed to have this "busted" moment, meaning an enemy got close to him, but he just doesnt actually have it. He is supposed to be extremely outclassed by anyone in a close combat encounter, yet he can always just quickscope them and deal an instant 150 damage (enough to instantly kill 5 of the 9 classes and heavily injure 3 more so that a simple noscope or melee attack can finish them off), or just whip out his melee, which usually consists of the pan with its 99.95% crit chance to deal another, almost always devastating, blow.
    a simple fix for that problem would, IMO, be a reverse Ambassador treatment to all his primary weapons (maybe make an exception for the Classic), where the closer someone is, the less damage the weapon deals with a set minimum of 50. He would still be extremely dominant on long ranges, as he is meant to be, but he can no longer just do Spys job better than him by just marching into the enemy base, instantly killing anything dumb enough to turn the corner he was behind.
    it would help draw a clear distinct line between those two classes and maybe make Spy seem less "useless" in competetive play (if anyone even plays that anymore), as Sniper couldnt just walk in with the rest of the team and annihilate everyone in his general LoS.

  • @NFGUN1T
    @NFGUN1T 3 роки тому +10

    As a Veteran from the 2007 era, here my 2 cents: (long post)
    Spy-Cicle:
    -You forgot to say backstabbing people with it leaves ice statues everywhere, so it can inform the enemy team of your presence, which isn't very good for you.
    Also you can replenish your knife pretty quickly with ammo packs which negates the downside a bit when you lose it.
    Your Eternal Reward:
    -You forgot to say this knife also have "silent kills" for the killfeed, which is pretty good if you want to be extremely sneaky. You can do really well under some situations/areas/maps (but it requires a lot of practice).
    It's also possible to backstab someone in front of a sentry gun and still being undetected which is also very powerful. It deserves a better ranking imo.
    Ambassador/Diamondback:
    -The old version of the Ambassador, as you said was OP. Agree with you on that one and totally deserves a nerf. But probably not how they did it.
    Actually this weapon is useless for most people and it's only effective if you've a very good aim to make it worth it (Diamonback doesn't requires that).
    Personally I don't like the headshot mechanic on Spy, it should remains a Sniper thing exclusively. And that's why you can't headshot people with the Crusader's Crossbow (remember when this weapon used an Hunstman arrow projectile instead of a large syringe ?). Why a Hunstman arrow can headshot when the Crusader's Crossbow can't while using the same projectile ? It was confusing somehow so they updated the projectile model for that medic's weapon.
    For the Ambassador, it doesn't really make sense to stop the headshot mechanic after a certain range it makes it unreliable at mid range. They should completely remove that headshot mechanic and rework it from scratch.
    Diamonback shares the ability of the old Ambassador (dealing -102hp at long distance), but at least it requires you to do things before you earn these crits when an Ambassador can deal -102hp at any moment but not at long range anymore (and yeah it requires a very good aim), still being able to deal -102 damage in a single shot is such a powerful power for both guns. If you're a low hp class, taking -102 damage make you reconsider your next move pretty quickly, but usually you've a very high chance to die from the next bullet or anything else.
    Also with the Diamondback, you still need to time your shots, because the "bullet spread" will probably fuck your plan (remember only the first shot is 100% accurate). Trust me, if you unload your gun really quick you're going to waste most of your crits, especially if you're under pressure.
    But I'm agree it's kinda OP/broken under some situations. At least, we can say it's annoying to get killed by the Diamonback because someone farmed some buildings/newbies and then come at you with a lot of crits bullets. So yeah actually the Ambassador is harder to use and that's why people tend to use the Diamondback instead. You can't blame them, blame Valve instead (if a weapon is more effective overall and easier to use, of course people will play with it, same problem with Scorch Shot basically).
    I think -102 damage for Ambassador or Diamondback is a bit too much. I would rather want to see ideas like: increased deploys time, increased firing speed, or knockback effect to keep your distance with your target allow you to escape a bad situation. Anyways both weapons need changes, and for sure, it's a tricky subject !
    That being said, I'm agree with the rest of the video. Love that serie !

  • @Massie_

    Spycicle is a Gun-Spy's respite because you can quickly gun down a w+m1 pyro with your revolver in 4 shots, and if you get hit by a single flame particle, you can negate the otherwise crippling afterburn damage to stay in the fight.
    Also the Enforcer is a big middlefinger to "Ambassador God" spies that pull out their deadringer after getting hit once by anything, because you just fuck them through the damage resistance,
    and the damage buff while disguised shafts any 5k hour sniper who has spotify cranked to full volume and relies on the razorback, because 2 shots are less reactable than 3.
    Of course you can also play the Enforcer with a "bind mouse1 '+attack; lastdisguise' " bind and combine the full accuracy reset of the ambassador, with the Enforcers innate damage buff. Bonus points if you snipe targets with minicrits, like a running Escape Plan soldier for 65 damage across the map with a simple bodyshot.

It’s an instant 210 health giving weapon just for playing the class that has the second fastest running speed in the game that gets damage resistance when he decides to cloak. Pair that with a player who’s good at juking, getting away, or surfing damage and it’s practically a get out jail free card much like the old dead ringer. It makes me more upset when I’m gunning down an overhealed kunai spy that’s getting away and he gets another backstab off as he escapes, at that point I just give up and let him get away because my progress in taking the spy down just got completely undone.
    The red tape recorder really is mediocre, but one use it has that wasn’t mentioned is that it’s pretty good against large clusters of buildings or just buildings that’s being protected by a dedicated pybro. In other words, it’s good for when you have zero chance in successfully sapping an engie nest on your own. Playing against level 2 or level 1 equipment is the next best thing if you can’t outright destroy it, plus the enemy engie is going to be spending time and metal upgrading his buildings again which is a good opportunity for your team to attack his buildings.

    As someone who plays Engineer frequently I DREAD the Red-Tape Recorder. In little more than 3 seconds time, your buildings are reverted to level 1, and all the metal that went into leveling them up and your dispenser's metal reserves is just gone. While the stock sapper can clearly kill faster, an engineer can usually knock it off in 2 swings, and the damage is completely repaired in just a few more swings. But if you get RTR'd, you're back to square one and incredibly vulnerable until you get your buildings releveled. I'm not saying it's the best choice for most situations, but the RTR is definitely not as bad as people say.

  • @Hanakooh
    @Hanakooh 3 роки тому

    For Red-tape recorder: An instant de-level is nice, but I also suggest that the sapper inflict a special debuff on the building (it can be like that the Red-Tape recorder corrupted the building's systems)
    Debuff can be any one of the following:
    - 25%-50% higher cost to upgrade the building to the next level (250/300 metal instead of 200 metal)
    - A status effect that stops the building from even upgrading, and can be removed by the engineer hitting the building a few times (and expending some metal maybe) in order for them to upgrade the building again
    - A temporary shutdown (about 3-5 seconds) before the building works again. During this time, the engineer may repair and upgrade the building, but the building's upgrade cannot take place until the shutdown timer passes. Consecutive saps from the RTR prolongs the shutdown time up to a max of 10 seconds.

    Something I heard on the Red Tape Recorder, that I'm sure a couple others are going to mention/have already mentioned is that it does have a very minor niche in screwing over Gunslinger Engies. Since the RTR takes longer to "sap" the building, and Gunslinger Engies already consider Mini-Sentries expendable, then it takes a lot longer for them to be able to re-apply a RTR-sapped Mini due to the delayed destruction of it. Otherwise, and likewise, it may be useful for taking care of Teleporters, though that's more situational than Minis, but de-levelling a Teleporter can mean longer travel time for the enemy team (as well as having the teleporter be out of commission longer before setting down a new one). This is mostly effective, though, if the Engie is not managing his teleporter well - Engies more dedicated to their non-Sentry buildings than not means you really want to use the Sapper anyways.

    @bluesnail5042 3 роки тому

    One thing i've not seen said for in defence of the red-tape recorder, is that I think it is objectively more useful than stock sapper if the enemy engineer is using mini-sentries. The sapper prevents the engineer from being able to destruct his sentry or build a new one until the sapper has destroyed or is removed from the sentry. Since the mini-sentry is so disposable and quick to rebuild, having it in a state of being sapped for like double the time it usually would gives a spy a larger window to chainstab a team or go against an engie down to his personal weapons.

  • @OMalleyTheMaggot

    How to change the Diamondback:
    1. Crits do not activate when breaking a disguise, nor are they used up, also include a timer after breaking a disguise before the crit can activate
    2. Cloaking/decloaking is longer while the weapon is active
    3. Add a delay before a second crit can be fired, 1 between crit shots, meaning that firing a crit shot, then shooting again would be a normal shot without using a crit.
    4. 3 Crit limit
    I haven't played TF2 in a while- even then, i was more a fan of the L'tranger and Stock, but the DB always bothered me. At least with the Amby, they either fired at the perfect time or were actually skilled enough to land a headshot.

    A rework for the Enforcer I thought of is the following:
    +Enemy players and buildings shot by this revolver get the "Shattered" debuff for 1 second, causing all damage resistances (except stock Uber) to be ignored by all damage sources for the duration (this would be displayed by a shattered shield icon above the affected player and to the right of the affected player's health in their UI)
    +The duration of this effect is doubled when shooting from out of a disguise
    +20% damage bonus against shattered players and buildings (regardless of whether they actually had any resistances or not)
    -40% slower firing speed (a shot every 0.8333 seconds as opposed to 0.5 seconds if I've done the math right and the Wiki is correct)
    -33% slower disguise speed (from 2 to 3 seconds undisguised and 0.5 to 0.75 seconds disguised)
    -Critical hits from this revolver are converted to mini-crits (not incredibly sure if this one is neccesary)
    -No random critical hits
    Note that the revolver's 1.25 second delay you must wait through to reset random spread would still apply here, so to get 100% uptime on the shattered debuff (and take advantage of the 20% extra damage), the spy would have to either get pretty lucky on the bullet spread or be close enough to his target where bullet spread would be inconsequental.

You can switch to your primary to take out the engie with half-decent aim or just use the red tape to continuously troll until he switches class.

  • @nataakdoryan
    @nataakdoryan 3 роки тому

    Proposition for the diamondback : increase the damage debuff from 15% all the way to like 35-50%. That way, you sacrifice consistent damage for higher damage when you do have crits. With a 50% damage penalty, it means that crits deal 50% more damage than stock, at any range. With 35% damage penalty, the crit damage goes to around a 90% damage increase compared to stock.
    You still have a better weapon when you do your job well, but if you don't, or if you miss your shots, you have a way worse revolver.
    Maybe to double down on that, you could decrease the switch out speed by 30-50% so that if you miss your crits, you can't just switch to your knife quickly or whatever, making the weapons riskier, or similarly increase the cloak time.

    and you can still use your revolver. combining the spicycle with the diamondback and two-shotting the class that's supposed to counter you feels both really funny and a little dirty
    and if you have your revolver out when moving around you can control whether you want to use the spicycle to extinguish yourself or not

    Couple things in defense of the diamondback. The diamondback was buffed a single time *8 years ago*. It has been the same gun for nearly a decade. Not a soul complained about it till the amby got nerfed, and as a matter of fact if you look back at old videos before the nerf, people were praising it as a slept on weapon, or saying the gun was useless since the Amby did the same thing but for free with a headshot. But a few groups of people yelling about it seems to have stoked a never ending witch hunt over it.
    The Frontier Justice is the same if not worse for it’s rewarding of crits, as it rewards the engineer 2 crits per kill/1 crit per assist with an aimbot gun. Sure it has a 3 shot clip penalty but it hardly matters because they could use stock, swap to FJ, blow up their sentry and go on a rampage with 180 damage shots, and yet it goes unmentioned.
    I believe that all this hate over the DB is just mob mentality of a bunch of people following others. It’s a gun who’s role is damage, every class has at least one weapon that focuses on increasing the class’s output. The db isn’t just going on a complete rampage 24/7, it’s for a potentially risky hybrid knife and gun spy playstyle.
    On that note, it’s very obvious that this tier list wasn’t made by someone with a ton of time into the class so I can’t judge the overall list too harshly if the placings were a bit predictable. That all being said I’d like to say that this was in no way meant to attack you personally, especially due to these being your opinions mostly, and I love your content.

  • @ruktipp2627
    @ruktipp2627 2 роки тому

    Spy being my most played class (not that it matters):
    Kunai: I don't really think this knife needs much of a change rather the Dead Ringer does. It was usable pre-Gun Mettle but the buff from 60 --> 70 was making it equal / a little more viable than the stock knife in some situations.
    Dead Ringer: You are definitely correct in saying it enables the Kunai best. I believe they should revert to its post-Gun Mettle form having its initial damage reduction be 50% rather than 75%. That is when I feel it was in its most balanced form. Other than that, it is a bit mid when paired with other knives. (Trash when paired with the YER.)
    L'tranger: I think this revolver is in its most comfortable spot in balancing. The damage penalty shows if you actually use it to shoot guys long enough so I don't think it really needs a more severe damage penalty.
    Diamondback: I actually never see anyone use this thing. Despite it on paper being a good item, it hardly sees use. I don't think it really needs a change due to Spy being such a vulnerable class when he carries out Spy activity. (Also correcting some misinformation: It used to only get crits by destroying buildings then it was given the ability to gather crits via backstabs in a later update.) The only change it might ever need is a clip cut but I think it is fine as it is just due to how Spy is played/works.
    Enforcer: I literally don't care about this weapon and never have. I don't know what they were going for when they rebalanced it to what it is. The only idea I can think of for something new is to have it gain mini-crits when you backstab someone for like 4 seconds or something hence the name for the gun. Other than that, it will stay stuck as an extremely niche weapon to use for (maybe) two-tapping unaware snipers.
    Red Tape: It is the Red Tape, a troll weapon. Namely effective against mini sentries.
    Invis Watch: It is the Invis Watch. Wish it had more cloak playing as much Stock Spy as I do but I understand why it doesn't and it is still the best without increased cloak.
    Cloak & Dagger: Agreed. Don't use it other than to find out if someone is cheating.
    Big Earner: I never use this knife. I think it is kind of all over the place in stats but it kind of makes sense what it's going for. I just find it underwhelming but perhaps I should play with it more to really decide.
    Knife: Reliable, good for picks. Enough said.
    Revolver: Reliable; wish it didn't have such severe bullet spread after the first shot but at least it's not as bad as the Pistol. (Plus it's meant for close range anyways.)
    Spycicle: I don't like this knife just because it is really... boring. I agree with the annoyance with a single particle messing with you business in general and I find the anti-flame effect overall underwhelming. I think if it wants to be the anti-pyro knife, it should excel at that for a price. Right now it doesn't excel much and it's price is negligible at best so it just feels lame to use. (Side note: I miss when it had Silent Killer. Was a cute touch considering you turn people into ice.)
    Your Eternal Reward: They messed up with this knife big time. To save the giant wall of text about the coolest knife in the game: Remove the ability to choose a disguise - that was the earned part. Remove the increased cloak drain. Give it a quieter decloak. Simple. It will always be the worst knife due to how communication works but at least keep it interesting.
    Ambassador: Fuck this weapon. This is why the Dead Ringer was so annoying. I DESPISE this weapon. It takes a really really really cool class concept of getting behind people, backstabbing them, and disguising - and throws it straight into the garbage. This weapon, I believe, is where the degenerate Spy mains were born from. I have nothing more to say about it. I 'm glad it was nerfed and I am happy to see it less.
    TL;DR: Spy is in a good place right now and only the underwhelming items should see some changes. I 100% believe the Diamondback is grossly overestimated.

    Actually, backstabs aren't based on hitboxes but the collision hulls like every other melee, which is the same size for every class - from heavy to scout. What makes them extra janky is that the collision hull is a simple cube and doesn't rotate it's orientation as the player does. You can backstab the corner of someone's hull that usually has no hitbox there if they aren't facing a "cardinal" direction.

    I think Spy could do with a backstab rework. Make the radius smaller from the 180 it is now to 150. It's large enough to where you can realistically backstab people consistently, but the blatant abuse of being in that perfect spot of "They are looking at me but I'm slightly to the left so I win" just doesn't happen. Getting backstabbed by a good spy shouldn't feel bullshit, the same way a headshot shouldn't feel bullshit. Especially if it's an insta kill. That's how I feel, it's probably a bad balance idea and makes Spy horrifically underpowered, but that's what I would do.

    I feel there's a really easy and cool way to fix the enforcer.
    Basically, buff the damage bonus up to +30 and give it a 70% faster firing speed when disguised. (keeping the 20% slower firing speed normally.)
    That way, it acts like a spy's force of nature and has a risk vs reward mechanic where you should think if going full-ham would secure a kill better than a backstab, plus it rewards accuracy and reaction time. I think this would buff the weapon at LEAST up to C or potentially B tier.

    Reduce the increased sap time from +100% to plus 75% or something like that. In other words, make it more useful against level 3 buildings and less useful vs level 1 buildings.
    Make the bonus damage and armor piercing from the enforcer work against buildings and reduce its damage against player. Make it essentially an anti-sentry gun instead of a useless weapon.

    L'Etranger rework: First 2 shots of a revolver don't remove disguise. 100% slower reload and can't reload while disguised or cloaked. You can still reload in the middle of changing disguise.

    didn't diamond back only give crits on sap kills, not back stabs?
    i clearly remember it not giving crits on back stabs before
    additionally red tape has one use thats good aganist mini sentires
    cause you can't destroy sapped buildings with pda so engi cannot just plop down another mini for a long ass time unless he removes the sapper.
    i think zetsy doesn't play alot of spy

      only few engies are battle engies
      and also i can say that this weapon has some unwritten functions (such as removing upgrade progress)
      also i like making the enemy engie feel pain in his spectator screen when he sees his buildings slowly die because no one is unsapping them
      i use it because of emotional damage, and also because if the engie immediately unsaps (which happens most of the time) it costs 200 metal to upgrade it back instead of like 40 metal to heal it back up

    YER falls into the same category of weapons like the direct hit and vaccinator where its pretty bad in the hands of the average player but so disgusting in the hands of someone good with it that you can't justify giving it a buff

    I was thinking upon right click, the spycicle can be used as a fire get out of jail free card so it negates the pyro's flame particles from instantly burning ur knife away and gives you a more planned use of spycicle.

    Here be my thoughts!
    Diamondback: remove crits gained on buildings sapped and cut the clip size in half like with engi's FJ, or just make it give mini-crits instead;
    Kunai: faster overheal drain while still being slower than mediguns' should be enough;
    Big Earner: the fact you can get 1-piped outside of cloak is already a strong drawback when you're not the Kunai, so...
    "Leh-trrohn-jeh": the nerfed damage is already significant enough that you'd need an additional shot compared to Stock in order to kill someone, which breaks spy's survival rate in cqc moments more often than you'd think, short of a clutch dead ringer refill, so l think it's fine as well;
    Stock Watch: l do think a little something should be given to this watch so that you wouldn't *need* the above revolver to minimize moments where you're caught with an empty cloak in areas with no ammo packs -- what that something would be is anybody's guess though;
    C&D: conversely, l tend to run out of cloak faster than what l'd like to with this whenever l'm trying to evade a heated chase after a successful play, but iunno if l'd actually want to give it that lil extra buff too;
    Ambassador: just *slightly* increase the range where l can still get a 102 damage headshot -- not asking for much, here;
    Dead Ringer: l'm pretty confident there's a better way to recreate the feign death mechanic of tfc spy, but your guess is as good as mine;
    YER: either remove the cloak drain or cut the disguise cloak use by half, and then add the ability to run at spy's speed regardless of disguise;
    Spy-cicle: iunno, just don't remove the knife part *until* you lose your 1 sec immunity to fire? Would mitigate the whole "instantly screwed by random fire particles" bit;
    RTR: at this point, the best l can think of for the RTR is for it to recreate fortress forever's sabotage mechanic in *some* fashion, like make sapped buildings damage nearby enemies on explosion with the damage dealt being correlated to their level? Again, your guess? As good as mine;
    Enforcer: just take that "panic attack" wild west-y idea from zesty's diamondback suggestion and slap it on a blank slate of this gun, easy peasy.

    The Enforcer is great for last pushes on Payload where wrangler engineers are hard to get to, but since buildings have no fall off and wrangler shields are penetrated, you can just plink away at it from a distance and tear it apart. That's the only good use case I've found, but it's a really damn good use.
