Team Fortress 2
I can't get better at spy
I really want to main spy. And while i do get the joke how spy mains are weebs or how people say it these days, i really do feel like i do want to put some work into him. But no matter how many guides i look at or how videos i still end up only getting 1-3 kills and then dying for the rest of the match. It's something i've been annoyed at for a while..and i just really had enough. And i do take my time into monitoring what happens in the battlefield, and how i'm not a defensive class and all the things most people tell me in guides and videos. But no...i just seem like i'm a dissapointment to my team, which i don't want to be...any advice that i may have not heard of before..like i know what people have told me is what i should do and all..but yeah..

That's how you play Spy. Get a few kills off clueless people then switch off when the enemy takes the hint.

Gotta up your spy-acting game. Throw in a few voice lines , I usually use the "There's a spy around here" and pretend to look. Almost always works. Also, try switching your disguise' weapon by pressing B depending on your current weapon slot.

Also, watch a few any-mays. Not sure what genre the professionals watch, but it's safe to assume one with
Big
Anime
Tiddies

Ew. :dead_pc:
Honestly, the best way to get better is to experiment and find your style. Once you find your style, keep practicing it. Eventually you will plateau with skill for a bit, but don't let that discourage you, if you keep practicing, you'll see yourself start to improve more again.

I do take my time to do that with medic and demo and all others, but I’ll see if I can throw in some voice lines since I’m usually quiet throughout the entire match

I’ll guess I’ll try that. What should I use for best practice? Stock? Kuni?

Heres a tip,
Try to go for a backstab when your backside is clear and their frontlines are distracted.
I recommend practice your aim too, so you can kill the pyros chasing you.
And if you worry about your cloak, you can slap letrange in your arsenal and replace your stock revolver, but beware that it will trade damage for utility for duration.

The main reasons spy players cannot get better is their main gamesense, do you aimlessly butterknife a heavy? Do you went in at the wrong time?

Cloak n dagger is good for waiting out paranoid pyros.

And disguises often works on some players, ive tried this on a paranoid heavy with aussie tomislav before.

Or just try to backpedal while spamming “HELP!” Voice command to pretend like theres going to be your teammate chasing you.
