"Have we really won? Or have we just continued the cycle of violence?"
Hey, I'm C:/Fodder (yes, the slash is the wrong way round, I know. I like the look of the forward slash more for aesthetic reasons), and I'm an enthusiastic Spy player, racking up a total of more than 200 hours in the class; 200 hours of mixed moments of glory, backstab rampages, but also filled with being burnt, shot, crit wrench'd and, more recently, FAN'd. Either I enjoy the challenge of Spy and the satisfaction of backstabs, or I'm just a masochist.

I'm also a firm believer that no matter how much you practice at the Spy, bad luck will always, ALWAYS find a way to kill you, be it by a crit, headshot, or random Huntsman spam whilst cloaked. However, it is just as important to learn to move on, pick up the pieces of your attempt and start again.

Fodder's Spy Arsenal

 * Revolver/Ambassador: More so the Revolver; since the latest Ambassador nerf (removing headshots during cooldown), I've lost my touch with it, so I use my Revolver. However, I am using the Ambassador more to train my aim a bit. I also hope to get a new mouse soon.
 * Butterfly Knife: Default tool for all Spies. Don't need to go much deeper than that, other than that I rarely attempt stair-stabs.
 * Cloak and Dagger: Currently my primary watch. I use it much like the IW, mostly in maps where ammo is scarce or constantly being nabbed by Engineers. Also, staying invisible by simply standing still has saved me multitudinous times.

Opinion on the other watches

 * Invisibility Watch: Ah, my old friend. I still use it frequently for long distances I cover during infiltration, examples include Badwater Basin, when I wish to push past the front line and pester the enemies at their spawn, frequently sapping teleporter entrances and picking off key targets whilst they leave spawn. However, for recon and general utility in maps where ammunition is scarce, I go with the Cloak and Dagger.
 * Dead Ringer: If I had to sum this watch up in 3 words, they would be "Fun", "Life-Saver" and "Offensive". I use this for defence mostly, and in conjunction with the Revolver or Ambassador as a gunslinger Spy. Otherwise I just enjoy leading the enemy on a wild goose chase, stealing ammo packs after uncloaking conspicuously next to them, pulling the Ringer out, taking damage, running to another ammo pack, rinse and repeat. Distracting, annoying, and keeps the teams' key players away from your teams' sentry emplacements and other key assets, such as a retreating medic. That, and it's always funny to see the enemy chase you down and failing at it.
