I could have sworn the title of this was "spreading" and "breeding" and I had to recheck the title at least 3 times to be sure

[@thequietkid6664]

Bruh 💀

[@HintShot]

🤨

[@user-uy8ps5it3p]

Ah hell nah

[@bottleofwater3119]

lmfao

[@ironpainting1210]

caught in 4k?

[@MoustachioFurioso83]

3:13 Funnily, despite having a distinct sound and being "louder", the Dead Ringer's decloak noise fades more quickly than that of the other watches. The sound is actually lower past a certain distance.

[@arlwiss5110]

15:20 - to me equipping the razorback means that sniper doesn't want to think or be aware of anything around him and is more likely to not have the reaction time to quickscope if i gun him down

[@orpheus9098]

If he somehow does quickscope you then you're gonna get taunted after you get killed

[@CountlessPWNZ]

I try, but fuck up my aim most times

[@bombboy3427]

This is typically my default load out. The fact the le' tranger and the Big Earner both refill the DR makes the DR almost never run out. Absolute blast for chainstabs too.

[@arasey]

The big earner is probably my favorite knife. The chainstabs are so fun to do even tho i usually just die lol

[@NotFine]

Well you normally just die when you backstab anyways, so getting more than one kill a life is really good

[@guyfrominternet9244]

Then spy says "it's spying time" so epic

[@isenokami7810]

Could also be misheard as “it’s spine time”; still works.

[@shaynehughes6645]

Spy among us

[@C0ZMIK5K1TTL35]

Back time

[@Odium_DOB]

this feels like my gameplay in casual it makes me feel happy that I'm not entirely shit and what happens to me happens to better spies

[@isenokami7810]

Does not do that for me, but I know I’m crap at spy. Part of that is probably limited maps through lack of confidence: I’m probably not doing myself any favors only playing spy on 2fort (where I still accomplish nothing and die), but I am so not confident in my spy skill that I avoid picking him like the plague in a more serious game.

[@Odium_DOB]

@@isenokami7810 I avoid playing him on 2fort but I do play it and learn why I love the abassdor so much I scared of some pyros using that gun, headshot than running away like taking pot shots til I either die or somehow live, or get saved by a anyone, likely just barely get away than kill for another day

[@isenokami7810]

@@Odium_DOB Yeah, one advantage to not using the Amby is that I’m just worried about hitting the guy, not his head. Part of why I think my revolver aim is at least somewhat better than other aim areas I need to work on. Similar situation with sniper: I suck at him, so when I play him I just try to hit people at all, headshots are secondary. And yet, while they’re both single shot in a somewhat similar way, I can at least hit people with some of my revolver shots, whereas I am just the worst sniper even when just bodyshotting. Despite giving sniper more tries than spy overall.

[@Odium_DOB]

@@isenokami7810 I hate sniper because how painful or boring it is to play as him. spy is more fun to me than sniper, but I think I suck, this gun will make me suck less. which it kinda does heck I scared my friend was a good sniper main who only lived because a quick fix medic was just there at the time as I got a headshot and was running with my gun at him, he body shot me or headshot me it a blur. but yeah

[@adamripplinger6035]

Saying the word “trickstab” and then pulling off a trickstab must feel AMAZING lol 6:30

[@zopolis0875]

I love how HintShot is a spy main but they're not a trickstabby spy main, he isin't trying to exploit back hitboxes or stab you from the front or anything, he's just acting, using disguses, good positioning, etc.

[@Awesomeness-iz3dh]

9:54 just walked right past that obvious Spy.

[@b_mbyz]

i find that the best thing to do as a spy when a spy on ur team is chaining the other team is to disguise as a class with ur melee out and just hand around (and act like a player thats chasing the spy but hes being cautious) until u get an opportunity for a stab

[@DeepFriedWxffles]

As always, it’s nice to see a casual spy commentary. Also, I suggest you work on your revolver aim a bit because even l’etranger packs a punch if your shots hit. I think it would be cool to see a Hintshot aim training arc!

[@isenokami7810]

I need an arc like that for aim in general. Agree with your L’Etranger point, though: if you can actually hit your shots, it still does good enough damage to function as an actual weapon despite the damage penalty. And if you can’t aim (like me)…well, that means the other revolvers aren’t gonna do s$&@ for you anyway. Honestly though, my own general aim arc likely wouldn’t start at the revolver: aim isn’t great, but still probably on the higher end of things I need to work on (aka anything that isn’t a minigun, sticky launcher, or Iron Bomb- wait, that got fixed). Would probably start with scattergun and rocket aim, particularly the former with acclimating to the extra speed of scout over just meatshoting people as engineer. Scout is fun if I can find a good matchup, but I almost always miss at least half my shots (at point blank…) and rely on my pocket pistol to finish them.

[@criticizinggamesforreasons9735]

Oh, I was in this vid. I’m the shortstop scout that appears throughout the video. I remember debating if this was the ‘’real’’ hintshot. Nice to know it was. ggs.

[@ammi5311]

do you say hint shot or hints hot ?

[@Maethendias]

id advice dropping the disguise when you are behind enemy lines and are going to go to their spawn, since you know, spawnhax, especially in badwater where they can see you from a mile away

[@IInferno]

I JUST REALISED YOUR TUMBNAIL IS IMITATING THE SPEED BOOST EFFECT OF THE BIG EARNER WITH BIG EARNERS THAT'S SO COOL.

[@bigmansam9605]

tis a good day when hintshot uploads

[@jbomb06]

wake up babe, new hintshot video

[@IInferno]

Baffling how he COPIED someone else's IDEA!! Unbelievable Hint. Lovely gameplay as always, hope you're well.

[@mccoolfriend6818]

Ngl, after watching all of his videos, he can play a james bond similar to mr P. very soothing voice

[@issaccoltman6249]

I can’t help but think watching this video that someone picking spy is intentionally letting their team lose

[@isenokami7810]

Technically true with conditions. We all know that 3+ spies meme, HintShot himself said that’s terrible unless they’re all god tier, which they’re usually far from it. By that same logic, though, even if you do only have 1-2 spies, the chances that they’re skilled enough to get any serious work done aren’t that high.

[@anthonyvillella9796]

As a spy main, my rationale is to play enough spy in hopes that there would exist a scenario where going spy isn’t a total throw so I keep picking him until I’m that good at the character.

[@Pepcen]

Damn bro. Your thumbnails are just 👌

[@BenTheMelon]

As I always say, ‘Big earner funnies!!!’

[@Larserr]

thanks for the voice and keyboard asmr, was soothing

[@samumohacsi]

dude your thumbnail game is ON POINT.

[@istoleyunomilesbigmac]

thank you for teaching me how to use the big earner

[@Torpoint.]

12:03 Hey look it's me!

[@GrandAdmiralTentales]

I'm currently doing a Enforcer Enjoyer Run with Spy, instead of L'tranger I run Enforcer. Until I get 1000 kills with it, please note I'm not doing it effectively. Big Earner, Enforcer, Cloak and Dagger, and Red Tape Recorder. So far 25 kills on the Enforcer, 670+ sapped buildings, and 1300+ kills on my Big Earner

[@theepicngamerz5830]

I'll be honest, I'm more drawn towards discussion videos, like some of yours that brought me to your channel. However, these gameplay videos are really nice. Nothing fancy, just simple upfront gameplay. Your voice, your playstyle, and the mix of the microphone with the gameplay just makes for really nice and relaxing background entertainment. Very nice.

[@KazualBopthKatze]

2022 brings the Revolution of the Big Earner spy gameplay, I am not wrong.

Good to see you again mr ClueStrike

Don't let this video distract you from the fact that Mr Krabs sold SpongeBob's soul for 68 cents

[@jah5001]

The way your speaking reminds me soo much of a woolensleevlet

[@MuffinMuncherArchive]

So far i have watched a few of your videos and gotta say i like your style dude my fav so far is art of the backstab :D

[@Peter7DA]

The thumbnails are always on poiiiintttt 😩😩😩😩😩😩

wow i love YER!

Spy mains when they have to use their revolure:

[@ajestoncommand1122]

I misread the title as Speeding and Breeding and I was like: Hold up...

[@stilyankiryakov6310]

ah yes, the amazing Fly loadout

[@Polish-Phoenician]

people say backpedaling makes you look like a teammate, has anyone seen their teammate (not a spy) actually backpedal into their team, cause they just run right in, not backpedaling, yet people still believe the backpedaling teammate isn't a spy, despite disguised spies being the only ones who backpedal, most of the time, it's run at your team, if your being chased, then backpedal. idk

[@BenjaminSteber]

Don’t sap the tele entrance immediately. Shoot it first a couple of times. The engineer will run right to his teleported when he says spy’s sapping my teleported. He’s less likely to run to the teleported if it’s only getting damaged and might wrist off the damage completely if it is the entrance. After shooting for a bit, then sap the tele and finish the job.

[@cheftristone]

Hint Shot vs Janky Rock Geometry. Geometry always wins.

[@ishxxl]

the thumbnail is him trying to outrun big earners

[@stefanbasic0883]

Oh I'm in your video 15:53

[@imabird1566]

If you were skeptical that spy was scout’s father this video is more proof

[@foxnachos_]

Just wondering, do you have a specialized killstreak dr? It is very cool :>

[@abisnaily]

Hintshot how do you get that hud

[@BigChumby]

Not a bad video. I respect limited editing tbh, the bar is set too high by the likes of Jimothy and Max0r

[@crako9844]

Sick thumbnail

[@iminumst7827]

You are trying to sell me on the big earner but I'm not buying. YER is generally more viable for chain stabs, and Kunai is better for escapes after stabs. BE has a couple niche use cases like catching up with a scout after a backstab or going for a trickstab after a stab, but I still think it's the most unremarkable knife unlock.

[@anthony-fw6cg]

there is an ip adress in the bottom left at 11:44

hehe funny speed boost
