I did point that one out, though frankly I'm not sure if it crit-streams. It fits the pattern, however, so I'm inclined to think that it does. In terms of damage it seems to be weaker than the syringe gun. It's a good backup weapon, but it's a backup weapon.

He gets it normally (keeps disguise iirc), then he can stab a few backs if the medic doesn't change target instantly.

I don't know if anyone's had this happen to them, but if you spray your flame at certain angles next to walls, you shoot two streams of fire.

The fist in the air gives a nice "mob" feel to it, love it.
Old video. But it's well edited, great music if it does mostly cover basics. Plus he gets way too many kills, especially the first rampage he goes on. I think that must have been taken in the beta or something because no-one even bats an eyelid.
Keep in mind that videos like these are edited. He mostly shows clips of him doing it right so you can see how that's supposed to look. He shows some clips of common mistakes so you can avoid those. He doesn't show you when he just randomly messes up and gets killed for it, because there is little educational value in that.
I would disagree with him that spy has the advantage vs. engineers. engineers have the advantage vs. spies by a longshot when it's 1 on 1. spy has the obvious advantage vs. unguarded engy structures, but an engy just hanging around his sentry will often blast anyone who approaches before they even get into sapping range. a decent engy will rarely ever have his back to a spy, and often they hang out in corners where they can't even be stabbed. if an engy is repairing his sentry because it's being attacked, giving the spy a juicy open back to stab, it doesn't mean the spy has a natural advantage over the engy, it means the spy has the advantage of his teammates distracting the engy. that would give any class an advantage - not just the spy.

cloaking breaks the healstream.
