Meet the Spy
SpyVidSplash.png
This Spy has already breached our defenses...
You've seen what he's done to our colleagues!
And worst of all:
He could be any one of us.
The BLU Spy on his RED counterpart

Hailing from an indeterminate region of France, the Spy is a fan of sharp suits and even sharper knives, relying on stealth and trickery to aid the team. Using his unique array of cloaking watches, he can render himself invisible and even fake his own death, leaving unaware opponents off-guard. His Disguise Kit lets him take on the form of any class, allowing him to blend in while behind enemy lines before stabbing his unsuspecting 'teammates' in the back, quite literally. In fact, a swift backstab from behind with the Spy's trusty Knife will take out any foe in a single hit.

In addition to being able to assassinate key enemies quickly and efficiently, the Spy is great against the Engineer. Using his Sappers, he can disable the Engineer's buildings, slowly draining their health until they are destroyed, unless fixed by an Engineer or a Pyro using a Homewrecker.

The Spy is voiced by Dennis Bateman.

Trivia

  • The Spy is voiced by Dennis Bateman who also voices the Pyro and the helicopter pilot in Left 4 Dead.
  • The BLU Scout's Mother is in a relationship with the RED Spy. A file in the BLU base contains photos documenting their activities. The Spy refers to her as "Ma Petite Chou-fleur" ("My Little Cauliflower").
  • The Spy is known to speak phrases in Italian, French, Spanish and Catalan.
  • A BLU Spy periodically appeared behind the RED Sniper in the Day 3 post of the Sniper Update, before the joint Spy Update was ultimately revealed.
  • The Spy's suit colors changed prior to the game's release. The RED Spy originally wore a gray suit, while the BLU Spy's suit was a different shade of blue. Both had a striped tie and team-colored bands on their suits and arms, which made them resemble Team Fortress Classic's Civilian. These suits can still be seen in the Spy's HUD icon.
  • The Spy's view model sleeves still have beta color schemes. In addition, the number of stripes on his sleeve do not match the world model.
  • In Template:W, an image of the RED Spy makes a cameo as the Jack of Diamonds in the "Poker Night" card deck. On the card, the RED Spy is shown on the top, and on the bottom there is a RED Spy disguised as a BLU Engineer.
  • The Spy makes an appearance in Template:W as one of the forts; the rest of the fort is composed of Gravel Pit. As well, the Spy's balaclava is a selectable hat for the player's worms.
