CHEAT EXPLANATION: Spies have a backstab cheat which is sometimes called "backtrack", it looks at all the recent tics (66tics/sec in casual) within the lag compensation limit and looks for tics where the spy COULD backstab you, then sends those tics to the server. Its a sort to time travel and its why sometimes spies jitter around. The cheat client SENDS data TO the server slowly (on purpose) but RECIVES data FROM the server ASAP which helps give an even bigger window for the cheat to work
Yea ive seen a lot of 'totally bullshit stab' clips and this is one of the first ones that is ACTUALLY bullshit looking. Its either a cheat or some huuuge ping issue.
I’m a spy main. That spy is either cheating or interp abusing. The giveaway is that you passed behind him before he stabbed you, meaning that he never saw your back.
Any interp abusing can also just be explained by ping usually, since it’s unfortunately possible for him to be much farther up than he looks. Not the case here, but it’s important to keep in mind.
I’ve seen many comparisons of wgat it looks like different screens, one is tracking the spy “perfectly” while the other already had his back basically, what you see on the screen is bot what the other guy sees or he has 30.3 lerp (a good lerp) which in just rare occasions might cause facestabs) or just facestab cheats
@@kuzyera depends. if he stopped or bumped on something invisible then it's clearly interp, or if he turned around for the hitbox its also interp, for backtrack it's like facestab cheats+, because you go through the backtrack model, and then you can get a backstab easily
The fact he failed the stab makes me think the facestab was on accident but then he confidently walks away that makes me think this guy might be cheating
or just backtrack, this guy was in a spot where he left his back open for the spy’s cheats, basically a ghost from 800ms max that you can shoot, and it will deal damage to the player

Your client can send all the specific packets for a backstab it wants, the server isn't going to accept them.
Then how does it work mr phaiz55
@@phaiz55 which is why the cheat client holds back the outgoing packets and sends them as slow as possible
apparently you can fuck up backtrack by not moving and only slowly tracking the spy with your mouse
he whiffs the backstab
but hits the facestab
incredible. 👏
Spy maxed out his ping

Imo Interp abuse is still cheating. Sure it doesnt require an external program, but it breaks the game to give an unfair and unintended advantage
@@sharcc2511interp is not an advantage lol
the guy recording was lagging behind ~0.7 seconds, you can check his dropped ammo box for his current position
@@zypireal huh, you might be right. Getting stabbed when you have high ping can look pretty funky.
I’ve seen many comparisons of wgat it looks like different screens, one is tracking the spy “perfectly” while the other already had his back
basically, what you see on the screen is bot what the other guy sees
or he has 30.3 lerp (a good lerp) which in just rare occasions might cause facestabs)
or just facestab cheats
that looks more like a cheat unless they both got default 100 lerp then maybe but otherwise this is probably cheats
@@slane9393 I forgot to mention.
He might have used backtrack because he left a spot open for the backtrack to expose his back, it goes up to 800ms
well yeah backtrack is a cheat, although i looked at it again it could definitely be just default lerp and ping@@z3us4027
@@z3us4027 its either ping or high lerp. this is impossible on 30 lerp. i think this spy is legit tho, backtrack looks a lot differently
@@kuzyera depends. if he stopped or bumped on something invisible then it's clearly interp, or if he turned around for the hitbox its also interp, for backtrack it's like facestab cheats+, because you go through the backtrack model, and then you can get a backstab easily
That spy was literally cheating
The fact he failed the stab makes me think the facestab was on accident but then he confidently walks away that makes me think this guy might be cheating
makes sense, welcome to team fortress
We all know that melee hitboxes in TF2 are broken as fuck.
It's a cheat
@thesheriiff8930 didn't know you could download skill from the internet.
@thesheriiff8930 ahahah
@thesheriiff8930thats cheating my guy. He wouldnt spam click like a moron on a zoomed in sniper and miss if he was at least decent
Melee doesnt use hitboxes. Nice try tho.
Funny how 0% of the people who bxtch understand how it works :D
literally stabs with the back
Miss a clean stab, gets a front stab
Funni
The classic face poke’ll guarantee a kill for the shpee! Trust me, as a spy main, I know this.
No one ever expects the face poke.
@@Dustweaver hence its efficacy.
God tier sniper
The best around. :3
Thats cheats
Or lag
@@originalname4701cheat induced lag.
No, he probably played spy for 1000+ hrs.
Tf2 trying to not be ripoff game:(imposible)
@@lustailfive2172 no, thats a cheat
He just got a random crit
Most powerful sniper vs worst interp spy
backtrack, thats all there is to it
high ping = spy time travel. High interp means players hitboxes rotate like a fidget spinner when they turn to the left or a right.
or just backtrack, this guy was in a spot where he left his back open for the spy’s cheats, basically a ghost from 800ms max that you can shoot, and it will deal damage to the player

Cl_interp 5 be like
that looked like a cheat to me
Fine shot mate!
i love cl_interp 5

Просто ты нихрена не видишь и не слышишь.
Honestly it looks like hes either cheating or thats a 1/1,000,000 stab probably caused by some extreme lag
that should have been a headshot
it could only have 1 of these 2 things...
1: he had insane lag like 800+
or 2: he was hacking
cl_interp 5?
I think they fixed it. Maybe just high ping.
Why the hell did this get so many views?
Good Lord it's at 10k.
@@Dustweaver I hope it gets more :3
holy
Ah, good old spy mains using hacks or exploiting interp
You dont have zero ping
first time?
