I like how the engineer and spy classes have a frenemy relationship. Everyone else tries to kill spy no matter what when he’s being a pestilence but the engineer just enjoys the spy’s annoyance and just chills with him

If you ever want to try this again, you could get a instant 'decloak and recloak' bind, and since (like you said) people are more attuned to normal spy tells, more people would try and get you, causing more problems!
This is similar to what I've always liked to do when bored. Haven't done it with the noise maker but I prefer these methods to screw with engies specifically; 1) spam C+5 (laughing ominously, whistling), the spy voice command, and the threat voice command (C+2 while looking at an enemy with your melee equipped) 2)as soon as an engie leaves the nest, sap just one building. Its not enough to destroy it usually, so its like constantly blueballing the engie. 3)If your victim is idle or stops caring about your taunting, walk out of range and take a couple potshots at his buildings. Again, don't destroy them, just be a nuissance. 4) While they spy check around you, evade while using the "Nice Shot!" voice command to taunt them further
The reason you couldn't use your noise maker anymore is because your disguise had a dueling game in their action slot, so the action key was trying to use that instead.
i love using this in medieval community servers, disguising as a bot on my own team, triggering deadringer, and then running in the way of whoever killed me and spamming the noisemaker
in the console: alias loop "+use_action_slot_item;wait 100;loop";loop it will spam the noisemaker by itself if you have it equipped alias loop " " will make it stop
In their defence, the noise and snow effect is broken and just appears in random spots on the map, it spooks me but I just end up ignoring the lil snow poofs
we had 2 spies doing this on a doublefrost server i turned friendly by accident and got really exited when i saw this vid, imagine my disappointment when doublefrost isnt one of the maps covered
If the guy you're disguising as has the duel thing the game will think you have it, it happens to me all the time when I try to "quack" my Duck Journal
You could also add that one cosmetic that just jingles all the time and the bombinomicon for extra annoyance. And a spycicle to get out of pyro situations ofcourse.
I think it's haft new players simply not knowing and some of it is "Oh it must be source jank." We all have seen hats spawn out of no where, pyro flames shooting from no were, unu effects stuck in midair, demo shelds floating in midair, etc. Would it be that far out of left field to assume that funny snow effect is just some new sort of source jank brought on by the new season update?
Those Pyros at the beginning: i imaginr they"ce got earbuds in (despite those not existing in-game). Scouts are fervently serious about the intel.They WILL find it, and they WILL attempt to cap it.
As a Pryo Main, Thank you for appreciating how unhinged we are at random spy checking. That made my day at only 2:00 minutes into the video! Also, you could bind the noise maker to your walk key so it goes off whenever you move... This was Fun to watch!
You know what would be pain. Just disguise as one guy and keep walking infront of him cloaking and unloaking, spamming the spy around here voice command, and then using a noise maker.
I’ve done similar things…..except in my case I was spamming Spy voice commands. I think I caused a Medic to loose his mind by constantly going “The Medic is a Spy!”
i know this video is one year old, but why do you WANT to be bottom scoring? imagine the fear of the enemy team when they hold TAB and realize the trollspy is TOP SCORING
If only you could still get the old noise makers. Some were old as fuck. But finding another noise maker in someone inventory that isn't the smissmass or birthday one is like finding an ancient artifact at a dig site
This radiates the energy of the people who own unusual Reindeerhoodies but have to deal with the inconsistent jingling, atleast that brings up their price value
I can explain why it was showing duel screens at the end. The player you were disguised as had a Dueling Mini-game in their action slot, which for some reason or another, makes the game believe that you have a dueling game equipped instead of your other action slots items. The most common occurrences of this happening (and how I found out myself) is during Scream Fortress on maps that have spells enabled, however, can also happen in Mannpower, or (like in this instance) in regular casual matches. This only occurs on Spy (for obvious reasons) and the duels themselves won't actually go through.

10:18 your noise maker in the action slot was somehow replaced with a duel thingy

cryptid spy idea; keep making noisemaker noises while stalking other players and kunai-ing them.
The people on Snowville that 'didnt notice' probably thought it was just part of the map
binding movement keys to noisemaker also makes it more fun for the other players when you walk in circles
Honestly a spy unlock that let's you cast out devices to cause auditory distractions, mainly fake uncloak sounds, would be sick for mindgames
If only you could still get the old noise makers. Some were old as fuck. But finding another noise maker in someone inventory that isn't the smissmass or birthday one is like finding an ancient artifact at a dig site
I notice that the way you present is your content in similar to martinsitopants did you take inspiration from him?
