Although the Spy is armed with a [[Weapon:Super_Shotgun|Super Shotgun]], he only has average health, armor, and movement speed and is unlikely to survive in open combat. A Spy's best role is to make use of his various Special Abilities to infiltrate the enemy's base and cause whatever damage he can. | Although the Spy is armed with a [[Weapon:Super_Shotgun|Super Shotgun]], he only has average health, armor, and movement speed and is unlikely to survive in open combat.

If the enemy knows the other team has a Spy, they will be especially alert. It is best to change disguises or cloak in areas outside of sight of the enemy such as your team's spawn rooms. | If the enemy knows the other team has a Spy, they will be especially alert.

| + | ====Defensive Spy==== | ||
| + | Defensively, a Spy has few options. Although the [[Grenade:Gas|Gas Grenade]] could be used to cause incoming enemies to hallucinate, the Spy's available Special Abilities are generally focused towards infiltration. Defending Spies typically patrol around the base and attempt to backstab unsuspecting enemies entering the base. | ||

| + | ====Playing Against A Spy==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Spies are equipped to excel at infiltration, but they are not as effective if the player does not implement those skills in the right situation. The best defense against a Spy is a wary and alert team. If your team's only [[Class:Soldier|Soldier]] is known to be in the enemy base and you see a Soldier running around in your base, then it is surely a Spy. | ||
| + | |||
| + | A [[Class:Scout|Scout]] can remove an enemy Spy's disguise, so having a Scout touch teammates as they walk around the base is a good defensive option. The same defensive option can be applied to a team's Spy if they wish to do so as a Spy can remove another Spy's disguise. | ||
