During 2013 people could craft the MvM gate bot hats, Valve fixed it some hours later and everyone that crafted one got a "Glitched Circuit Board" and its a rare item.
would've been really cool if they got a proper version of the hat they crafted instead of a "fuck you suck my dick" circuit board that does nothing they could've at the very least have made the circuit board some kind of visible cosmetic
Blank killstreaks only dropped on the very day that the Tough Break update dropped, I happened to get one and decided to apply it on my HHHH. Best decision I've made.
As funny as it is to have a "killstreak key" or something, I have to agree that putting it on something that can actually get a kill count is the way to go
That *would* be pretty cool! AFAIK there has never been a glitch that actually gave a competitive advantage like that though, I'm guessing all of those attributes are stored/calculated on the server so would be very unlikely for a glitch to make a random dropped weapon somehow have extra stats
@@Casperr Abit of an obsecure knowledge here but the main reason Normal quality bats came to existance was because a group of friends discovered that when you type BAT on the shuffle thingy in the Mann Co. Stockpile Crate a normal quality bat comes to the drop menu of that crate
nah I bet instead of a 1 shot weapon, it would've been a 1-damage weapon. a bat that's worse than literally anything, but stronger than a basic gibbus hat
For me, I would consider the last item to be the rarest, most mysterious item. I mean, I know there are other items that are one of a kind, but this TF2 Upgrade to Premium thing is just too mysterious. No one knows where it came from, as opposed to other items that have an origin on how to obtain. It's just a plain mystery no one else would ever know.
I dare You to spam the Scotich resistance on bad water Rules : only use the Scotich Resistance (no pipes or melee. You may use boots or parachutes) : play on bad water : spam it
in 2015 there came a glitch with the gun mettle update that allowed you to craft achievement and stock items. This means that when trying to craft a spy melee weapon, you could get a black rose or when crafting an engineer secondary, you could get a crafted stock pistol or the lugermorph (all in unique quality of course). Unfortunately i was a free to play back in the day and couldn't craft much, but one momento i still have from that glitch is a self-crafted non-tradable stock bat for scout.
@@arturr.9825 wait.. what weapons are from achievements? cuz so far I only know that hats and specific items like the backscatter, the Base Jumper, and "The Classic" rifle.
@@frozenfiredarknight3764 What I meant were the promotional achievement items (big kill, black rose, iron curtain, lugermorph etc), that were thusfar only obtainable through achievements in untradable form (some tradable ones were released into circulation through customer support mistakes and duplication).
there's actually a blog post on the TF2 website that mentions that Valve were thinking of making weapons paintable, though I can't remember if that blog post came before or after war paints
My guess would be that Valve wanted to make that a thing, but then scrapped it for some reason. Cow Manglers (and maybe other weapons?) were programmed to display paint but they forgot to cancel the feature when the update came out after the idea was rejected.
The only glitched items I’ve definitely seen in game have been a single painted cow mangler, and it twisted my brain to read that item card a few times. And very recently I saw whatever player “has FOUND: Scattergun”. Not Redeemed, it said he FOUND a Scattergun from a drop. There were several of us in chat that were freaking out and the guy who found it didn’t get what the hype was about.
I remember watching a video a while back that someone had gotten their hands on the only unusual body misc in existence because of some fuck-up during an update that was patched almost immediately.
I've got a Level 4 Eyelander, lol. Eyelanders are only supposed to be Level 5, but apparently there was an MvM drop glitch where incorrect levels were being applied to weapons that had fixed levels (i.e., well, the eyelander). Probably not worth shit, but who knows.
I apprieciate that Valve didnt just delete all these items, allowing them to be rare collectioner items. They are like the golden wrenches, but even rarer. also very useful for the economy, since TF2 is very big into trading (its basically super expensive collective item) (yes they removed the gate bot hats, but i kinda agree with that since there were a lot of them created, and not just a few. but they still gave these peoples something in return)
less than a month ago, I saw a pyro on the BLUE team with a RED team flamethrower. I inspected it while they were in spawn and it had the assassin grade item quality, it was stange, but had no skin or name. Very spooky.
@@BabzaiWWP well thats what I thought, but it didn't have any war paint name. Usually it says something like 'Butcher Bird Minigun" or "Pumpkin Patch Sniper Rifle" but this flamethrower just said "flamethrower"
When the Cheater's Lament was introduced, the only way for them to display text was by making a temporary placeholder item to be displayed before/over the cheater's Lament item. TL;DR person logged in and then out before getting cheater's Lament, still has placeholder in backpack. To quote the wiki: "When players viewed their backpacks after receiving the cheater's Lament on September 2nd, 2009, the following message was displayed: "Congratulations! Your honesty has been rewarded with a new hat!" The message did not appear, however, when the item was awarded to the community during the Mann-Conomy Update."
Hey, I'm an item collector myself, and I have a few of these, including the coveted Collector's Specialized Killstreak Concheror (Manndarin), as well as a vintage specialized killstreak level 0 ubersaw, and a unique pda. I also have some fairly rare items as well, hit me up if you want some pics of them or something!
It’s actually possible to make other killstreak cosmetics show their sheen, though you have to manually mod the vmt files of said cosmetic for it to show up.
Here's a fun lil glitch nobody's mentioned yet. In the very beginning of Jungle Inferno, all the war paints went from Civilian grade to Commando grade in their respective collections. Not just with the free ones you get from contracts, but the ones you could unbox from cases as well. I unboxed a macaw masked unusual and found it was freelance grade. If I had unboxed one of a lower grade, I could've put a stat-clock on it and gotten an easy strange unusual. (Which is what some people did)
Another use for the universal killing streaks - they can be applied to Rocket Jumper and Sticky Jumper. I know it gives the rocket jumper the shiny effect ( -tho idk bout sticky jumper cuz i never saw one- _someone else in comments said they have the effect working on sticky jumper_ ) You can usually get kills with it to get the quality, tho some servers with modified stats allow that. But you get the shine anyway so that cool
I don't know the specifics, but there used to be a glitch that allowed you to put unusually long descriptions and names on items. Great video by the way! And stellar editing!
There are 2 types of "normal tradeable bats". The level 0 ones, which came into existance as u described correctly, aswell as a level 1 version that came with a glitch in the stockpile crate programming. U could enter certain keywords into the "loot generator" text field and end up with a stockpile crate containing a "bat" as one of the 4 possible outcomes of unboxing it. Thats how the level 1 bats were created. The glitch was patched, a few of those glitched stockpile crates still exist however. In case u wanna see them, i have one in my inventory as i once bought a normal bat and wanted to see how it came into existance. "Black Rain" found said glitch back then, and gave me one of the crates as a gift.
I managed to grab a blank Specialised Killstreak Kit one time, so I shoved it on a Collector's Sticky Jumper. It shows the killstreak sheen as intended, unlike most other glitched killstreak loadout items your class can hold in-game!
One thing you could try to do to edit the item schema file: install TF2 on a removable drive, insert it on another computer and edit it from windows or linux. haven't tried it yet tho
I like how Valve used the incorrect meta items intentionally when they made VSH, since Saxton’s weapon is a pair of fists that count kills but isn’t strange and is locked at 9001 kills, making them Hale’s Own Fists. On Saxton Hale.
Being a (Starting) glitched item collector, I think the Strange Normals are the most interesting. I do have an item you didn't talk about and it's a Unique Bat with a description that is uh...Pretty long. Anyway, nice video.
I did see them in my research and what lead me to leave them out was that some people suggested they might not *necessarily* be glitched. Because they were apparently given to the devs from Sam & Max and were (one of?) the first community sparkle items ever, it's possible that Valve gave these out with the intended attributes (tradability) before they'd really established the concept of community sparkle items not being tradeable. Didn't seem concrete either way though, so I didn't want to speculate about it in the video just in case
Casperr ah I see. They are technically glitched though as the other self made Sam and max items with community sparkle remain self made like the Max’s severed heads, but upon items turning vintage team fortress devs accidentally turned all Lugers including the community sparkle ones vintage which is why they are vintage despite having the community effect. It’s really interesting stuff. Still my top item in my personal collection.
it is so weird to that a guy with such entertaining videos and great editing doesn't get as many subscribers and views as he should. Hopefully the RUclips algorithm can do something about that.
Ace the Ocarina Maker has a special Phlog with the green flames particle effect, making his phlog look like a regular flamethrower in terms of particles during Halloween/full moon
I had a friend who bought a rare sniper rifle skin at the start of the gun metal update, he than later sold it during the update but he came back and had a glitched tradable stock sniper rifle which had never been named or given a description. I don't believe he still has it but it was weird and can't really find many similar cases.
I own one of the rarest items in the game, a glitched level Unique grade Ambassador that I got as a reward drop during the first week of MvM. One of 45 glitched level Unique Ambys.
When you purchase an item on a "free" account, then it says you get three things, the item you bought, the mann Co cap and a "upgrade to premium account" I think that the last item is a glitched version of that
Players used to be able to equip cosmetics that clipped together before Valve patched most of it. Afterwards players used to also be able to equipped/clip items together by lagging themself's while changing cosmetics, but that was also later patched. Nowadays if a player never changed those slots then they still have those clipped cosmetics equipped together. I have a loadout on Pyro with Person in the Iron Mask, Pop-eyes, and Tower Pillar of hats. It's an ugly set, but to my knowledge I'm the only person that can/has all those specific items equipped. I don't know of anyone else that has something like this that survived the unequipping script kiddies, but if anyone else has a glitched/clipped set in 2021 I'd love to see it.
Once during a game I saw a top tier scout trader with a "strange normal peofesionnal killqtreak scattergun, spelles with exorcism". He also had a "vitage pro ks lugermporh" with the fire horns effect on it AS WELL as a strange monoculus. Not the binoculus, but the monoculus, the hat you get from an achievement. He had it in strange wtf
For a neat example that not's directly relevant but this reminded me of, you also used to be able edit the item schema to remove the information about which body part cosmetics occupy, allowing any normally conflicting combination to be considered equippable at once. Pretty sure that's been removed for a long time now but 'twas a neat way to create truly unique loadouts for a while.
I'm not sure how this fits in to the bugs mentioned in the video, but I've noticed on casual mode, as a Soldier, no matter which primary I choose, I spawn with a Black Box. I even crafted the Black Box I did have into something else, so I could not have one at all anymore, yet I still spawn with one in game, even though the loadout says I have something else equipped. Not sure how this became a thing, and it doesn't happen on community servers either.
Abit of an obscure knowledge here but the main reason Normal quality bats came to existence was because a group of friends discovered that when you type BAT on the shuffle thingy in the Mann Co. Stockpile Crate a normal quality bat comes to the drop menu of that crate
Also the glitched Unusual Extra layer misc for sniper exists, right now there should be two in existence. Also when it comes to painted cow manglers, im happy i had the luck to meet an owner of one ingame.
I actually have the clean head taker. Got it from someone that was playing since the event wnd was leaving tf2 so they just let me have it in a trade server. Consider it my rarest item.
i think "upgrade to premium" might be a placeholder used when an f2p first purchases something from the mann co store. when i was buying Taunt: Rock Paper Scissors for my little sibling the other day so that we could play tf2 together, i noticed the checkout screen not only showing the aforementioned taunt, but also two other items: the mann co cap, and another thing saying "upgrade to premium"
Would also like to make one correction with the blank Killstreaks being glitched killstreak Spellbooks, no idea if the sheen is present on them mainly due to how small the item is and their limited time use but they do in fact track kills and thus can get killstreaks
One of the weird things I saw kind of recently was a demo man who had a stock grenade launcher and stickybomb launcher that both counted kills and the name was still gray, it was even name tagged and the name was gray
I bought the glitched killstreak kit the day it showed up on the marketplace and instantly applied it to my Strange Archimedes As far as I am aware, it's the only one that exists in the world.
I currently own a loaner version of a sniper rifle back when you could loan skins for weapons, but I got it from my brother through trading and I named it "Loaner - This Item Cannot be Modified" Loaner weapons cannot be traded, used in crafting, modified ( so naming and describing ), and a whole assortment of other things even though I got it through two of those "impossible" things
Can't remember his name but I met one of the owners in a popular unusual trading server. It was the Balaclavas are Forever version. Maybe you can find him again sometime if you're actually willing lol
There's some weapons you can use the blank killsteak kit on that do show the sheen, even though they don't have a killsteak kit designed for them. The sapper is one and also the gunboats. I managed to get a blank killsteak kit and use it on my gunboats and was surprised to see that they actually show the sheen.
Dunno if it exactly counts as a glitch but I've got a Strange Specialized Killstreak Kukri whose texture never renders in the backpack, the loadout screen, or in the inspect menu.
I personally own a thing I unboxed so I could get a premium TF2 account, an unusual Colonel Kringle. It has a purple effect that instead of being on the hat, it's in the torso. It's really weird, because it doesn't show it like that in the backpack or selecting cosmetics, but it does in game.
Here’s a cool Scout glitch on 2fort! If you killbind and drop Mad Milk, then walk over to the mad milk, throw the one you’re holding while holding down mouse1, and spam H until you pick it up! Now, whenever you pick up the intel, you immediately cap! It auto-caps the intel right away
Mann Co Supply Crate #87. On July 26, 2019, this crate was somehow mistakenly made to have a 100% chance to unbox an Unusual cosmetic. This resulted in "The Crate Depression" of 2019, which saw a massive nosedive in the in-game economy. The bug was fixed, and most of the unboxed Unusuals were made untradeable.
you forgot the Upgrade to Premium Glitched item doesn't have the ''this is a limited use item. uses: 1'' So it's possible you could ''use'' it as many times as possible.
Most of the goofy glitch weapons I see are hard to do exploits that mess with weapon effects temporarilly. Using item drops and a resupply cabinet to Glitch effects onto weapons, while the item servers were down. So I got to see the hilarity of A Phlogistinater with Air blast XD. The guy was playing with a friend who also played Pyro but, with item servers going down, the Second Pyro was stuck with Stock. The first pyro, who had on the Phlog, used a kill bind in spawn to drop his Phlog for his friend. When the second pyro picked it up, they also triggered the locker, the game lagged for a second, and the second Pyro had the phlog.. but it could Air blast. The pyros had no idea how it happened and couldn't replicate the glitch but it was some amazing chaos for a bit. I was playing medic so I stuck around the second pyro because the weapon was hilariously broken... but the glitch ended when they died.
I got UNUSUAL haunted scrap metal, so i can't do ANYTHING with it! Like, i can't craft with it, i can't trade it, i can't even see the effect or smth! So, i have this... Thing

The upgrade to premium is most likely added to your backpack on another purchase (to give you premium) and then disappears something must have broke so it stayed
I believe the upgrade to premium item is how your account is upgraded to premium. They give you this item when you buy enough and it auto-uses or something. It’s probably not true but I’m just throwing it out here because I don’t see any other theories.
I was lucky back in the day to get for a cheap a Strange Unique Shovel. Got it Prof KS and made the name tag 3+ lines blank text and I've had it ever since and love this item.
It's not as cool as some others, but I have a Dragon Slayer Rocket Launcher that's Field-Tested instead of Factory New. The war paint was supposed to always be FN, and about a day or so later I was given a FN dragon slayer war paint by customer support. I also have a Strange Unique Shovel :D
Before the 2021 Scream Fortresses update, you can use a name/description tag to a construction PDA or a sapper and then restore the item to obtain a glitched Unique Version of them
During 2013 people could craft the MvM gate bot hats, Valve fixed it some hours later and everyone that crafted one got a "Glitched Circuit Board" and its a rare item.

They are technically glitched though as the other self made Sam and max items with community sparkle remain self made like the Max’s severed heads, but upon items turning vintage team fortress devs accidentally turned all Lugers including the community sparkle ones vintage which is why they are vintage despite having the community effect. It’s really interesting stuff. Still my top item in my personal collection.
it is so weird to that a guy with such entertaining videos and great editing doesn't get as many subscribers and views as he should. Hopefully the RUclips algorithm can do something about that.
Ace the Ocarina Maker has a special Phlog with the green flames particle effect, making his phlog look like a regular flamethrower in terms of particles during Halloween/full moon
I wished they made the universal killstreak kit a real thing, of course it would only be able to be applied to weapon but the idea of it would be neat
It would massively drop the economy on killstreak weapons though
@@pharam9937 nah, it would be rarest one to get to balance out it's usefulness
@@pharam9937 vintage stranges
yay an new casperr video, as the solider would say "today is a good day!"
Yay! A new casperr video! As the soldier would say "today is a good day!"
RIP rick may
I had a friend who bought a rare sniper rifle skin at the start of the gun metal update, he than later sold it during the update but he came back and had a glitched tradable stock sniper rifle which had never been named or given a description. I don't believe he still has it but it was weird and can't really find many similar cases.
Felt as mysterious and enticing as an ARG. Excellent video :)
Thanks brother :) Your work on the thumbnail and associated chit chats were much appreciated
I own one of the rarest items in the game, a glitched level Unique grade Ambassador that I got as a reward drop during the first week of MvM. One of 45 glitched level Unique Ambys.
Yooo a new Casperr video! :D
I am genuinely shocked that I didn't know about a majority of these! The research your videos are always top notch
Thanks Mowse 🥰 your long time support is much appreciated!
I don't know whether this is a glitch or not, but I have a strange haunted garden bristles with carnival kills as a killstreak.
When you purchase an item on a "free" account, then it says you get three things, the item you bought, the mann Co cap and a "upgrade to premium account" I think that the last item is a glitched version of that
Interesting theory! I'll have a look into it 🤔
I saw a painted cow mangler in game last week, didn’t know they were possible
Players used to be able to equip cosmetics that clipped together before Valve patched most of it. Afterwards players used to also be able to equipped/clip items together by lagging themself's while changing cosmetics, but that was also later patched. Nowadays if a player never changed those slots then they still have those clipped cosmetics equipped together.
I have a loadout on Pyro with Person in the Iron Mask, Pop-eyes, and Tower Pillar of hats. It's an ugly set, but to my knowledge I'm the only person that can/has all those specific items equipped. I don't know of anyone else that has something like this that survived the unequipping script kiddies, but if anyone else has a glitched/clipped set in 2021 I'd love to see it.
Very very slick editing, great job
As a collector I'd give my soul for one of those Cow Manglers
I would and I don't even collect, I want a cyan laser gun
Once during a game I saw a top tier scout trader with a "strange normal peofesionnal killqtreak scattergun, spelles with exorcism". He also had a "vitage pro ks lugermporh" with the fire horns effect on it AS WELL as a strange monoculus. Not the binoculus, but the monoculus, the hat you get from an achievement. He had it in strange wtf
Monoculus strangifier exists. More special if it was tradeable.
5:20 I think the gunboats also have a sheen on it
I was wondering why I was finding killstreak buff banners or sandviches. It also explains the pricing on these items.
Items bought from valve come bundled with a free upgrade to premium item at checkout, this could be it
For a neat example that not's directly relevant but this reminded me of, you also used to be able edit the item schema to remove the information about which body part cosmetics occupy, allowing any normally conflicting combination to be considered equippable at once. Pretty sure that's been removed for a long time now but 'twas a neat way to create truly unique loadouts for a while.
I'm not sure how this fits in to the bugs mentioned in the video, but I've noticed on casual mode, as a Soldier, no matter which primary I choose, I spawn with a Black Box. I even crafted the Black Box I did have into something else, so I could not have one at all anymore, yet I still spawn with one in game, even though the loadout says I have something else equipped.
Not sure how this became a thing, and it doesn't happen on community servers either.
Abit of an obscure knowledge here but the main reason Normal quality bats came to existence was because a group of friends discovered that when you type BAT on the shuffle thingy in the Mann Co. Stockpile Crate a normal quality bat comes to the drop menu of that crate
Also the glitched Unusual Extra layer misc for sniper exists, right now there should be two in existence. Also when it comes to painted cow manglers, im happy i had the luck to meet an owner of one ingame.
I remember the Cow Mangler thing and regret not painting mine while I had the chance, oh well
I actually have the clean head taker. Got it from someone that was playing since the event wnd was leaving tf2 so they just let me have it in a trade server. Consider it my rarest item.
i think "upgrade to premium" might be a placeholder used when an f2p first purchases something from the mann co store. when i was buying Taunt: Rock Paper Scissors for my little sibling the other day so that we could play tf2 together, i noticed the checkout screen not only showing the aforementioned taunt, but also two other items: the mann co cap, and another thing saying "upgrade to premium"
I'm a simple man, I see video about shiny objects with the Sam and Max Office theme, I like.
Would also like to make one correction with the blank Killstreaks being glitched killstreak Spellbooks, no idea if the sheen is present on them mainly due to how small the item is and their limited time use but they do in fact track kills and thus can get killstreaks
That's a very cool little detail, thanks for sharing! :D
I've seen a painted mangler, specialized killstreak cosmetics, and stock stranges all in game before
I think whenever you get new weapon you never seen before - it should generate stock version of that item for you. To save backpack space for f2p's.
wow! this preview is amazing! nice job
I don't have specifics, but I remember hearing that blank strangifiers also existed at one point.
Blank KS kits can also be applied to some weapons that can't normally get kills to give them a sheen, such as the Gunboats
i think soundsmith applied one to his rocket jumper
The craftable and tradable Unique and Normal Black Rose - a promotional Spy's knife, that is a little expensive one.
One of the weird things I saw kind of recently was a demo man who had a stock grenade launcher and stickybomb launcher that both counted kills and the name was still gray, it was even name tagged and the name was gray
Yeah I tried to get some of the old achievement hats that I deleted a few years ago when I was younger and they told me they couldn't restore them
I bought the glitched killstreak kit the day it showed up on the marketplace and instantly applied it to my Strange Archimedes
As far as I am aware, it's the only one that exists in the world.
I currently own a loaner version of a sniper rifle back when you could loan skins for weapons, but I got it from my brother through trading and I named it "Loaner - This Item Cannot be Modified"
Loaner weapons cannot be traded, used in crafting, modified ( so naming and describing ), and a whole assortment of other things even though I got it through two of those "impossible" things
One of these days, I will pay someone several thousand dollars for a painted cow mangler.
Can't remember his name but I met one of the owners in a popular unusual trading server. It was the Balaclavas are Forever version. Maybe you can find him again sometime if you're actually willing lol
There's some weapons you can use the blank killsteak kit on that do show the sheen, even though they don't have a killsteak kit designed for them. The sapper is one and also the gunboats. I managed to get a blank killsteak kit and use it on my gunboats and was surprised to see that they actually show the sheen.
Good To Have You Back :)
Dunno if it exactly counts as a glitch but I've got a Strange Specialized Killstreak Kukri whose texture never renders in the backpack, the loadout screen, or in the inspect menu.
Very interesting video! Great editing! Keep up the good work :)
I personally own a thing I unboxed so I could get a premium TF2 account, an unusual Colonel Kringle. It has a purple effect that instead of being on the hat, it's in the torso. It's really weird, because it doesn't show it like that in the backpack or selecting cosmetics, but it does in game.
Someone own a botkiller rocket launcher without strange quality
Here’s a cool Scout glitch on 2fort!
If you killbind and drop Mad Milk, then walk over to the mad milk, throw the one you’re holding while holding down mouse1, and spam H until you pick it up! Now, whenever you pick up the intel, you immediately cap! It auto-caps the intel right away
i once came across a strange professional killstreak Catastrophic Companions. sadly dont have the screenshot anymore though
Mann Co Supply Crate #87. On July 26, 2019, this crate was somehow mistakenly made to have a 100% chance to unbox an Unusual cosmetic. This resulted in "The Crate Depression" of 2019, which saw a massive nosedive in the in-game economy. The bug was fixed, and most of the unboxed Unusuals were made untradeable.
I once saw a spy with the spycicle that when used applied the gold pan effect.
I remember back in 2013 I had some how found a vintage Australim black box and I don’t know how to this day
you forgot the Upgrade to Premium Glitched item doesn't have the ''this is a limited use item. uses: 1'' So it's possible you could ''use'' it as many times as possible.
FINALLY been waiting for this for so long
Most of the goofy glitch weapons I see are hard to do exploits that mess with weapon effects temporarilly. Using item drops and a resupply cabinet to Glitch effects onto weapons, while the item servers were down.
So I got to see the hilarity of A Phlogistinater with Air blast XD.
The guy was playing with a friend who also played Pyro but, with item servers going down, the Second Pyro was stuck with Stock.
The first pyro, who had on the Phlog, used a kill bind in spawn to drop his Phlog for his friend. When the second pyro picked it up, they also triggered the locker, the game lagged for a second, and the second Pyro had the phlog.. but it could Air blast.
The pyros had no idea how it happened and couldn't replicate the glitch but it was some amazing chaos for a bit.
I was playing medic so I stuck around the second pyro because the weapon was hilariously broken... but the glitch ended when they died.
I got UNUSUAL haunted scrap metal, so i can't do ANYTHING with it! Like, i can't craft with it, i can't trade it, i can't even see the effect or smth! So, i have this... Thing
7:47 if the VAC system somehow dosen't work, that i call "infinite money"
Dude I saw that you haven’t uploaded in awhile so I sub literally yesterday and now you upload lmao
You have the power
In muy account, I got 2 unusual haunted metal scrap , 2 gibus, 2 frontline field recorded, 2 monoculus, 2 taunt Directors vision and other hats from achievements
"killstreak scrap metal"
the most least valued item possible
The upgrade to premium is most likely added to your backpack on another purchase (to give you premium) and then disappears something must have broke so it stayed
I believe the upgrade to premium item is how your account is upgraded to premium. They give you this item when you buy enough and it auto-uses or something. It’s probably not true but I’m just throwing it out here because I don’t see any other theories.
I've seen an old video of some guy in spy suit that has the enemies colors so that's cool
I was lucky back in the day to get for a cheap a Strange Unique Shovel. Got it Prof KS and made the name tag 3+ lines blank text and I've had it ever since and love this item.
I have a Unique Equalizer that counts kills like a strange
It's not as cool as some others, but I have a Dragon Slayer Rocket Launcher that's Field-Tested instead of Factory New. The war paint was supposed to always be FN, and about a day or so later I was given a FN dragon slayer war paint by customer support.
I also have a Strange Unique Shovel :D
Before the 2021 Scream Fortresses update, you can use a name/description tag to a construction PDA or a sapper and then restore the item to obtain a glitched Unique Version of them
I saw a tradable construction PDA, idk how, or why, thats Just magnific and so funny
How about the green flames phlog? It's a phlog but with one of the scream fortress spells that allows it to have the flames of a regular flamethrower
