You find an engineer you hate, stand by his gear until he moves 6 seconds or more away, then sap and laugh.
It's fun to bait engineers. Sap their shit, run in their direction (cloaked), then stalk and stab them as they try to make it their buildings or remove the sappers. Or stab them right after they pick up a building to move it.
For those that are in full turtle mode you can bodysnatch someone for a disguise then sneak to the engineer and jump on their head. Crouch, uncloak (no noise for Saharan Spies), and stab them in the head.

Finally got my Saxton Hale mask, just in time :P Hopefully the Cleaver is still craftable after the event is over - I just lack the refined metal to make it.
I'm just lacking the refined metal right now I tend to have bad luck getting items randomly for some reason (though I don't play the game a crazy amount either)

I figured he was talking about something else. I couldn't think of the actual name of the Headtaker off-hand so I said Cleaver
I'm not in the camp that thinks the C&D is useless, but generally speaking the amount of time you can spend under cloak isn't the major limiter on a Spy's lifespan, it's the Poisson Distribution that is the amount of time it takes for a backstab to whiff, an enemy to decide to look somewhere irrational, or for a Pyro to simply walk by.
For the C&D to really help you (keeping you cloaked even in situations where you'd normally be uncloaked), you have to always have it on, meaning you're going to be moving really slowly. Maybe give it a 50% ammo pickup rate rather than none at all, and it'd see more worthy use.

I can usually find good hiding places, and picking up ammo is too risky for me

the regular cloak works fine
it will be weird to not have any targe demos at all
losing the yer is kinda weird
but basic knife is probably still the best

no axetinguisher really sucks yeah
no jarate
the downtime is an hour and a half

P.S I cant wait to get the Iron Curtain for the Heavy,
Near perfect stealth in exchange for slower movement

I am so impatient that I am willing to part with it for 2 refineds and 1 scrap
Or they're just being cocks and specifically targeting one person.
That being a practical use of time, however, is very rare.
see gumpy camping flippy for like 30 minutes and getting mountains of green text hate
Babies.
you can craft it, but only with three refined or two hats
It's Haunted metal + 2 refined + Scotsman's Skullcutter
