Fun fact: the video titled "live spy" has a lot of clips where spy turns unalive. This is a reference to a fact that spies can die.
woah, really?
Turns out “live” wasn’t an adjective and instead it was a command. Live, Spy!
Fun fact: the death feature on spy can be completely deleted from the game simply by equipping the dead ringer!
@@Chimpin_ TC2 makes it so the Dead Ringer can't cloak
Fun fact: a tactic to decrease dying, is to try and live
Watching spy gameplay is so incredibly stressful. It's like watching a horror film
Especially during the escapes, you feel that tension lmao
When you’re sitting in the corner with one health and the Pyro is hunting you down
@@Jontohil2 yeah. Also i get alot of spy jumpscares sometimes
Thats a spy mains daily life
Spy Gaming moment
0:59 130 > 108
8:34 146 > 122 (no overheal included)
9:10 150 > 120
20% dmg resistance while cloaked good
1:45 as well, barely makes it out by cloaking
Thats why i use stock watch eith big earner
Here's a tip of mine that usually works on Spy: If you have to uncloak nearby the enemy team, try syncing the decloak sound up with a Demo disguise calling for medic, it usually works for me to just fully overlap the sound of decloaking
That's brilliant
@@OmegaRC59 Ty lol, it works for other classes as well, but Demo's and Heavy's medic calls are the loudest
absolutely genius, im trying this now
@@SarutinMcWhotookmyname Good luck lmao
@@coolaman5 i did try it, it seems to work? i doubt it was because of the trick, i think they might just be deaf. but im going to say it worked anyways
I think more videos like this are a nice change of pace! You bring a very comfy and chaotic vibe
The "spy has a gun" joke is literally the funniest joke on your channel. PLEASE DO MORE!
I hope this series goes well, it's always fun seeing people play spy

@@Drippy_Hank spy
Yes IM the spy
My #1 reason why I love playing Spy are mind games. Its so satisfying completely knowing their next move if I do a certain action. I know that they know I am near, but last time this happened I noticed they spent a solid 10 seconds hunting me until I simply played bad (movement, nad cloak management, etc) and got caught. So next time, I purposely make myself visible to that person, then just go to some other place and they will waste a solid 30 seconds, longer than if I just backstabbed them, seeking something that isn't there. I can use that to my advantage the next time I see them. Then they realise and the cycle starts again, trying to find the best way to waste their time, be that killing them otright or having them go on a wild goose chase.
The feeling of doing certain things just right to make a certain player tick is so satisfying.
This dude knows how to play spy.
Having seen you in action I can say you're not an amazing top-tier spy, but you are balanced as a player. So while you don't always get the stab, you can still guarantee the kill or sap more often than not through conventional means alone. And that I'd say is the mark of a damn fine gamer that can learn from their mistakes.
Knowing you're not a god also reminds you that you're not invincible, and how to work around you... uh... mortality
@@Jontohil2 And despite most spies choosing the kunai and dr to solve that exact problem you still choose other alternatives, just playing to play.
I’d love to see Uncle Dane’s “Engie Brain” series but like for spy, and this is the closest I’ve seen so far. Please make more 🙏🙏🙏
My favorite part about playing spy is failing to stab a demo, cloak with the cloak&dagger, and watch as he desperately hits every wall, every corner, every square inch of the room to try and find me and let my team push forward. It makes me feel truly devious watching him having a panic attack
4:43 the undertale [MISS] is a nice touch
You have reached tier 2 of the spy main CZcams - MrPaladin live commentary. (Really enjoyed this video and I hope to see more videos like this!)
LOVE THE CONTENT AND SPY HAS A GUN
It's a rip-off of how a spy thinks, but it's not. This might be the replacement of how a spy thinks, seeing that MrPaladin isn't uploading now. I hope you continue the series!
It felt more like a rip-off when I started recording, but as I got further in an especially in editing, it definitely started to feel like it's own thing
With enough time, it'll always be
he's advertising the gun more than the things that he did wrong
I genuinely loved this. The sweet plays you made and the way you explained your thought process on things, it’s all very professional and I like it. 💙
Just wanted to say your Spy Psychology series really helped me out since im still learning Spy, especially the video on how to act well with disguises.
Seeing some live gameplay like this video is also really helpful for seeing the techniques in action, so thanks for the help with getting better at Spy :)
It's sad losing Sir Stanger, Woolen, and Paladin. I vibe with your videos so it'll be great to see a new Spy main take the CZcams stage.
Tip: acknowledging why you died instead of raging at it is good! Me breaking my 168th keyboard:
Damn when did I write this
One month ago? Damn it feels like way more than that
The best part of live commentary is the nonsense noises that are made when surprised by something hah. I love it
Having 125 HP instead of 100 HP really makes a BIG differance, haha xD
Risk of Rain 2’s ost is absolutely ear meltingly good. Came for the live spy commentary, stayed for the amazing music
Amazing! Please do more of those!
Please make a full playlist of every spy psychology video with this video included and maybe others that are similar but all in all you put so much effort in your videos it's unbelievable every video is quality work. Keep up the great work! 🎉
This was pretty enjoyable to watch I'm looking forward to more videos like these! Also the mouse clicks in the background is turning this video into an asmr video for me, I will be listening to this video for a while.
I like your commentary, and the extra lil tips you put on screen!
*SPY HAS A GUN*
I loved this, you should do it with more spy classes!
spy has a gun, indeed he do i just can't aim to save my own life, literally
We need more footage of u just playing spy . Your videos tought me how to play the class and showed footage of those exact situations, but in the footage you can see how u combind all of that knowlage and just use it casually.
General tip on scouts: they will run backwards once fighting.
"I did desently well"
Has 101 points
3:41 hehe that’s me (the pyro)
8:37
Whats stopping me 😂 lol
Thats a heavy using a THE NATASHA minigun
Slows down enemy getting hit
btw you can be an enemy sniper looking up and spinning around and get them kicked i have done that a million times and it s never getting old
Pretty good work overall, maintaining nearly a 2:1 is hard as spy in general. A lot of good points shown too, GUN is obvious but often over looked, the fact that some openings appear out of no where. How luck sometimes just screws you over. Good footage.
I'm a pyro main and I used to find spy quite boring but your tip of using stock invis instead of cloak n dagger is a real game changer and it made me enjoy playing spy much more. Instead of spending 3 minutes sneaking behind lines just to die because a heavy turned around it encourages you to just walk behind the enemies and if you stab them you stab them.
I’m happy to see you find a new series good luck
What i learned from this video.
*gun*
Truly an informative video. Not even joking, the times I forget the revolver is not insignificant.
You're probably one of the first TF2 youtuber's i've subscribed too in YEARS just because your content is so engaging. The editing in your guides is superb, and i'm all for the more gameplay oriented videos as well. Though, if you would like to provide more in-depth analysis of said gameplay, commentary in post I feel would work very well alongside the commentary within the clips, and you could even provide examples of your attention being taken up while trying to commentate to elaborate on points you've made in previous videos. Keep up the good work!
hi jon I just start playing tf2 recently I was playing pyro for a while but I found your video and it inspired me to play spy
I am so good at (running into people as) spy
This video makes me feel much better about my spy play
When you see kill comps and montages, people can make spy looks see easy
Nah man, spy is hard, mistakes are common
I watched this while brushing my teeth
This is quite helpful! i keep getting greedy with my stabs that always ends in anger and switching classes but i always end up back as spy i need to remember the main thing SPY HAS A GUN
Very useful to switch to other classes to make the other team let their guard down, and also to have tine to think what you should do in this situation as a spy.
I like this new potential series.
Hey, great video! This could help out a lot of new spy players trying to learn the class! I'll give off some tips that you should or MUST do when playing spy. First of all don't disguise as a pyro. Sometimes when you disguised as a pyro, you might be missing a head and it's a bug (don't also disguise as a demo man sometimes when you disguised as a demo man your demo might be missing a leg). It's better much off using a scout, medic, and spy disguise since it won't slow you off and there's no bugs. Second, when you're about to disguise have a habit of cloaking and then disguising. If you did the vise versa you'll leave a smoke trail behind you while your still disguising which is pretty bad. Third, when you missed a stab on an enemy it's better to cloak away for now and prepare for the next stab. Third, when your teammates just capped and you're running low in HP and currently in the enemies backline just undisguise so you won't get traced by the enemies when they just respawned. Lastly just have fun! Anyway, I hope you make more great videos like this one !!
i keep forgetting spy actually indeed, has, a gun.
"Just stab lots of people."
-Jontohil
Even though I main Scout but I found your video entertaining. Keep it up!
Expectations: insightful wisdom to how a spy should think during a game to preform better
Reality: hehe Mr. Frog
i really a glad that theres still tf2 content right now. Weve lost a lot of good creators who post less and less nowadays like Uncle Dana and LazyPurple
Thanks for killing my ears when saying "GUN" and "SPY HAS A GUN" at times
god watching videos on tf2 feels like... soo slo mode compared to playing it.
and part of that is framerates and visuals. even in potato mode the game will chug on my old machine.
but also the way you just kinda handle things soo much smoother than i do.. seeing stuff around your screen that i wouldn't notice. like that spy disguised as you.
good stuff.
Coming back to this comment makes me think, even though I was playing spy really carefully that game I still got near the top of the scoreboard. Which is interesting because it shows you don’t have to play super aggressively to topscore.
As a spy, if I’m making good plays and then the other team becomes spy aware, I don’t want other spies on my team. Because then the team stays aware if I switch back onto spy. Kind of annoying. And as you mentioned, it makes it easier to distinguish if it is a disguised enemy spy.
Spy does indeed have a gun
Why am i watching this at 5am
Anyway great video lmaoo
"G'day all, Mr. Paladin here"
We need *M O R E* of this. I enjoyed it and learned something, thanks :D
Lessons to take away: SPY HAS A GUN
now im addicted to this new content
Ah, I see you also default to Pyro for your disguise, good taste. Also you should of totally started this with a riff on the classic "good day yall"
I feel like starting it off like that would have been a bit too derivative, and plus this began to feel like its own thing in the editing process
@@Jontohil2 aye, fair enough, also we should totally have found a way to upload that podcast, that was real fun!
The only calm spy main
Hey don’t forget, SPY HAS A GUN!!!!!!! 🤣👍🏻
6:51 Imagine ubering a sniper 💀
my spy mindset is:
1. Switch to spy because an ennemy sniper is too good
2. Make their day horrible
3. switch off when if he quits or changes class
I appreciate you making this despite losing the game. Feels more real.
Remember,
SPY HAS A GUN
After all of the vids i watched from you im starting to think spy may have a gun
Keep these up. I miss Mr. Paladin's old videos.
Hey Jonto, have you got any tips for keeping your cool while playing Spy? I find that virtually everytime I die (about 90% atleast), I always, if not rage, then atleast while or complain, and I'll admit it, maybe even cry a little. This is why I generally stick with 2fort instant respawn servers, your death carries little weight. You respawn right after you die, and the game never ends anyway. I feel that if I was a bit better at Spy consistently, and if I could play about every game as I played that game you looked over on your livestream, I would enjoy playing Spy on casual a lot more. The problem is that I can't improve and play at that level consistantly because I always end up ragequitting and then join a 2fort community server every single time I give casual a shot.
You really, really have to look for he REASON you died. I haven’t got anything else other than saying that it’s a mental habit you need to break or else you won’t improve.
Oh and yeah staying on 2Fort instant respawn will also prevent you from improving, in fact 2Fort is terrible for spy.
Something I'd say is genuinely just don't fret about dying too much, Spy is a class that's the most vulnerable when doing their intended job, unless you're going gunspy. You're going to die, you're going to make unfortunate plays, you're going to have games where you get one kill and die every single time, that's just a part of how Spy is balanced tbh. There's no shame in dying, or not being good at spy yet, when I first started out, I was a nervous wreck.
Nowadays I'll go around as gunspy surviving fights on like 3 hp against swarms of players and have my friends watching go fucking nuts when I somehow make it out between a mix of gunplay and trickstabs. It's staying calm and keeping a good mental attitude that helps, I would not be able to do that if I wasn't as calm as can be.
Laughing at your misfortune, especially the more ridiculous can help too. I have been random crit in the dumbest ways so many times I just laugh it off every time. You can't help it, it's dumb, it's funny as fuck at times
In the wise words of Woolen: "do not fret"
@@Jontohil2 Doesn't Meet The Spy take place on 2fort? All the same, the reason why I play on 2fort is for the easy backstab, trickstab, and headshot opportunites you get constantly, whereas on casual and other maps, positioning comes before the action. But 2fort atleast improves my mechanical skill, right?
@@OmegaRC59 Sure, but if you're constantly underperforming on casual and getting one kill per game while dying countless times, something is not quite right.
@@SirPlusOfCamelot it only helps you up to a very limited point, but you quickly stop improving at anything but 2Fort
I literally saw the stream for a split second before I went to sleep
good taste in music
I notice that you usually disguise as pyro when you respawn. Idk the reasoning behind that, but consistently finding a spy thats a pyro could tip the other team off to look for pyros
There's something I want to say about disguises.I can't seem to wear a proper disguise when walking out of spawn,because we are gonna die anyways.Plus,sometimes it's just not convincing enough to fool people,no matter how good you are at acting.Even if you run away from a teammate or getting shot at by your own team,pro players are gonna notice it every other time.Either I'm seriously underskilled,or disguises simply don't work for me
If your teammate is shooting at you its actually more suspicious
Loved it. Want more of it. At your own convenience of course.
cool video format m8!
doesnt feel with a spinoff (impossible)
i like the risk of rain 2 music. adds a super chill vibe.
A modern how a spy thinks is amazing, can you please make them longer like paladin it'll be soo cool
5:56 According to the killfeed, you missed, and the Scout got the kill.

WOOOO NEW UPLOAD
So I've recently had an idea for a new spy sapper and wanted to hear your opinion on it.
Introducing: The Disabler
•sapper does no damage to buildings, however it will remain permanently until removed
•+100% sapper health
The general idea is to force engineers to have to move to the sapped building and remove the sapper if they want to actually use them, as engineers can't remotely destroy sapped buildings, which could force them either to run into any ambushes you might set up or go back to spawn to quickly change class to another and back, wasting their already set up infrastructure and/or any kills they might have on their sentries if they're running frontier justice.
This would pair up well with the increased sapper health, distracting the engie for longer, and allowing you and your team more time to take advantage of it.
If such an idea was already around then i'm sorry for claiming it, as I hadn't seen anything like that being discussed, and would have liked to finally have a solid sidegrade to the sapper that is actually worth using imo
Berry good!
I respect spy mains. -Almost no one will say that.-
Spy is very hard to learn and play, so people who are smart and insane enough to main him deserve respect.
this is great to watch and informative !!
but the thing is, i want to get better at spy, but i get SO NERVOUS whenever i play spy. how do i get more confident?? is it just with experience?
Very cool 👍
👍
I think you're secretly a GUNSPY
makes feel better that even top level spys just miss backstabs
homage to MrPaladin
video idea: revolver retreospective
great video
I love spy because I can feel myself like a sneaky motherfu
Thank you jontohil500
TF2: Live Spy - Gun Mindset
That was good
Live spy gaming
Was a good video!
The title implies that sometimes, spy is not alive
