The case of pyro vs. spy, pyro was created to hunt spies in every aspect, the matchup most of the time isn't even close to being fair. I love that it's basically predator vs. prey.

Things not mentioned: If you backstab someone with a Kunai, you get instantly extinguished. Powerjack makes Pyros run faster, I think possibly slightly faster than you. It can make backstabbing a pyro sprinting from spawn to the objective way more annoying and could help them catch up to you. Pyros can rocket jump to an extent using Scotch Shot and Detonator, especially that 2nd one.

Pyro Main going to drop two tips here: 1. The Powerjack. It’s rarely taken out to chase Spies as most Pyros are trying to keep you on fire. If you do die to one after being discovered though, then make a mental note that they will be faster than you but limited to melee range. 2. Observe your running path. Some Pyros are very good with flares, and running straight to a health pack makes leading the shot easy to gauge. If you die to flares while doing step 2, then take note that the Pyro has good aim for your next encounters. Have fun and don’t get caught~ 🔥

I love how simply you explain everything. It's very helpful

in terms of movement, pyro can also flare jump. detonator is the best option for that so people should be aware of pyros who are skilled enough to pull it off

The main issue is not the Dragon's Fury itself, but the fact that a Pyro using it probably has decent accuracy compared to the average Pyro player.

Editing was top notch here, the transitions were really stylish too. Your videos are getting better and better man, I can tell your SFM skills are improving, great work

Something i really wish you had talked aboht, is dealing with people who've raged switched to pyro after you've killed them one too many times.

I think it's also good to note that if a pyro is being too much of a pybro, and constantly spy-checking, they will easily become distracted with reflecting rockets, especially with crits. Uber pushes will also keep a pyro fully distracted, cloak and dagger is really fantastic for waiting for these moments and picking off targets the enemy pyro isn't around. If another spy is on the same team as you, and you see him making a play, you can use that to your advantage as enemies get hyper-focused onto a spy they found and will never check their back for a second spy. You gotta let the plays develop instead of forcing them.

Pybros use RTR They can unsapp buikdings before destroyed BUT NOT BEFORE DELEVELED now that lvl 3 sentry is a lvl 2 much less knockback Lvl 2 to 1 dispenser and removes all metal Lvl 1 to undeployed tele means no enemies teleporting for the time being. Imo pyros benefit more Like heavies and demomen From sticking near engy nests to defend or pushback. Help the class with area denial ammo health replenish and teleporting allies to the front lines faster Vs Fighting and probably getting killed not even taking down 1 player. Ill stick to sticky trapping huo firing near a dispenser or flame checking around the area and airblasting. As an engineer main a good team hold >>>> a great team push. Pushes can be stopped easily and are harder to do coordinate with more than 3 people. An average team hold will help keep everyone alive better less coordination just do not let the nest go down or enemy push you back. That is literally all there is. The longer you hold weaken or kill enemies coming TO YOU the easier it is to move up and reposition / gain more ground. Sentries buildings sticky traps and positions take longer to setup but harder to dismantle vs going on the offense and breaking an enemy hold

6:20 A little elaboration for anyone who needs it, an example is to move right but once you cloaked go left, it's better than not making the direction shown because they might choose the path you did

A couple important things to have included in this video: 1: The powerjack is a weapon that gives pyro faster movement speed, making it easier to catch up with the spy and if you're in a casual server you'll also likely eat a random crit to the back of the head 2: the scorch shot, on direct hit, can lock a player in place and does mini crits to buring players. Since you're a spy booking it from a pyro you're likely already on fire so you'll eat a lot of damage on top of being basically locked in place

As a pyro main, I’d like to mention that the dead ringer is very noticable, and it will NOT save you from a good pyro.

I love just how much of a THREAT you make the pyro in every video. As a pybro main, makes me feel validated.

As usual, you deliver excellence Jonto! As a Doom fan, I adore this video's particular style, and is probably my new favorite in the Spy Psychology series. Also, caught that brief moment of The Healer Stalks, that was a nice touch.

Little correction: Fire particles do actually accelerate with your movement, that's pretty much why the exploits of getting stuck as pyro then just using the detonator to have an effectively infinite range flamethrower.

Him using Doom references means 1 or more of 3 things: 1. He is a cool gamer 2. Proving he's not a weeb 3. Pyros are demonic

I noticed that basically all the pyros in the end clip you killed were mindless wm1-ers. More skilled pyros won't do that, and some of us have good enough tracking to make trickstabs nearly impossible without some lucky hitreg, though we do slip up occasionally. Ive done some spy myself, and when dealing with a more skilled pyro patrolling, cloak and dagger+spycicle is key. Some of us(such as myself) don't always constantly flamespray and instead rely on just spotting a disguised spy via behavior alone, so assume your disguise kit is useless and you won't hear us coming, hence cloak and dagger. When detected, first priority is BREAK LINE OF SIGHT. After that, thats when I trigger my spycicle. If attempting to kill a more advanced pyro, either catch them off guard at range, or wait for a burst of noise from elsewhere nearby(to mask your decloak) and the pyro being distracted(say, busy playing mind-games with a soldier) and then try to go in for the stab. That's my input as a pyro main with some experience in other classes. Ngl i kinda feel bad for spies sometimes, what with how hard damn near everything screws you guys over.

Ayo, you know it's a good night when Jon uploads at 5am in the morning, lol. I'll be honest, my main strategy has been to just wait till they're distracted, disguise as a Medic, target them. Some Pyros are a menace in a casual lobbies. And when a Pyro wants to WM1, they're rarely suspicious of the Medic that's magically behind them. I know it's not gonna work all the time, it's just my go-to. Disguising as Medic tends to be really good in general though. Even if players are suspicious of your Medic disguise, in the heat of the moment they're just not going to notice unless you bump into them. Heck I've had a Scout use his Mad Milk on me, on my Medic disguise, because I was on fire and basically gave me the backstab. I'm proud of that moment.

I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!!! Keep up the good work 😎

I still can't believe my little bro managed to make it inside this Spy Psychology video!

I’ll be honest, I’m just loving how every video can involve the iconic “SPY HAS A GUN!”

I’m a pyro main watching this video because I want to branch out and get better at spy

Wow, that first minute in a half was really cool. Who could've known that Spy had a gun?

Great video. The visual/audio gags land well, and the info is concise and easy to understand.

It's so amazing how even after so many years such a great content is made for this game. Keep going, after your vids and 20hours of playing spy I'm finally able to hit top once in a while and enjoy my spy gameplay.

Notes for if you do run into a Mannmelter Pyro: They do not need to set you on fire to use their crits. And if your team has a few pyros, chances are this pyro is loaded with at least 5 reserve crits if they're competent. More experienced Thermal Thruster pyros tend to switch weapons before landing, yes, you can do that, and it allows the pyro to prepare to deal damage before landing, which is very critical in a chase.

Man, as a Pyro main, the bit that kicked off the "Predicting Them" segment seriously got me. I feel like that's the entire Pyro vs. Spy matchup in a nutshell, Pyro definitely doesn't always require you to outsmart your enemies like Spy does. Still totally gonna at least *try* though, can't hurt to add prediction and trickery to my game plan especially since Pyro also thrives on ambush kills. At the end of the day, maybe we're not so different after all... 🔥

12:44 the det actually has a larger explosion radius than the scorch, and at times is more dangerous than scorch due to its air burst giving the pyro more control on the explosion and thus easier to get caught in the blast

Fail to mention the stunlock on the Scorch Shot. And the rather big hitbox

Hey Jontohil! I'm a recent subscriber that, admittedly, came into the channel and the Spy Psychology series as a Pyro main looking to better deal with Spies. But after I applied the things I learned from the series I've made Spy one of my mains! Your videos have really helped me learn the basics for the class and has even taught me something about Pyro! (E.g. the flame particles relative to Pyro's speed). If you have any advice on inifiltrating Engie nests I would love to hear it! [Though I wouldn't be surprised if that's where the Homewrecker is gonna be covered] All in all, thanks for making these wonderful videos and I look forward to seeing more of the series and learning new ways to mess with people

YESSS. I’ve just been getting into playing spy again after temporarily maining other classes and pyros have become such a huge problem for me I’m so glad you made this video. Also I’m glad to see the series is back.

spies: ugh! why cant i kill anyone while running away from them? jonto: *SPY HAS A GUN*

@@O5MO that's generally one of the reasons I'm doing this series. Spy really complex and doesn't have a proper tutorial series for beginners.

You can heal from cart, dispensers and enemy medics. You just need to make fast disgust.

The amount of effort put into these videos honestly amazes me. For someone that has just picked up the game like me and fell in love with playing spy, this is just beyond perfect as you also explain some basic stuff about the game that is really important.

3:42 This pyro already breached our defenses. And worst of all, he could be any one of us.

that intro did not need to go so hard and yet here we are. amazing vid as always

POV: you’re a Pyro Main who is watching this not to learn how to kill them better, but simply gain a better appreciation for spies. I still do love chasing a spy like a rabid Pitbull though, but best of luck to all of the spies out there!

The quality of your videos is just incredible, what a grest work!!🎉🎉

this is the best youtube intro I've ever seen 100/10 like the intro should be like a whole movie

This is very good for spies and how to avoid their biggest predator

I knew this was gonna be awesome, but GAHD DAYUM That DooM intro was so epik. It exceeded almost all my expectations, showing that you really know how to wow your audience. Such an informative video in an awesome bad ass format just can't be compared to most, I really love all of your videos, thanks for this one❤

Thanks man, I’d been waiting a solid 10 minutes for this one

Intensely Informative and Vibey Greatwork Great Man

Pyro main here, I love your video, and how you're not portraying Pyro like an absolute braindead moron like many others do nor like "GG EZ kills". My best advice for Spies trying to fight Pyros and live: if he's alone and you're a little far away, the stock revolver 3 shots a full health Pyro from a decent distance where the shotgun doesn't do a lot, but if he's decent and noticed you he will most probably start juking. The Ambassador is great if you can land one headshot, but otherwise it's really risky to get close to him. Besides that, a Pyro that is distracted or fighting someone else will be just as easy to backstab as any other class, just mind the potential chaos surrounding the fighters... I think the most important thing to note for all of us is that while we have different skill levels, the ability to adapt to one of us changing their playstyle is the most vital and game-changing skill for anyone to have (a Pyro who killed you before who shows the same patterns after you killed him will become much easier to kill than a player as any other class who is aware about you and may try to adapt their playstyle to catch you off-guard while you were having fun bullying the inexperienced Pyro). With that said, I wish everyone reading this a fun while playing TF2 and if we ever meet that I hope we can have some interesting fights.

Always happy to be reminded that SPY HAS A GUN.

Intro is fire, like your sound producer. Hope (s)he gets a raise.

God your editing is god tier. Be proud of your videos man, they’re art.

dont forget about the powerjack, which will let pyro's close the distance between you to put you back in the danger zone

"this video is not a trick stab tutorial video" is the most common phrase in any video about soy before talking about trick stabs lol

I had to say that because otherwise someone would freak out that I didn't talk about circle strafes for the next hour

You can also try to sap the Pyro. It probably won't work, but they may confuse you for a friendly and leave you alone to massacre their team.

Imagine backstabbing right after doing that

Yo this video was very good, I liked the editing Can't wait for the video about the homewrecker

That was a pretty insane intro 😲 Great job!

These videos are so high quality in production, keep it up!

As a pyro who uses the neon annihilator, it is because I like destroying sappers, but do not have the homewrecker

He's at it again with another amazing video, love your content jon!

Im so glad you made a new video keep up the good work bro

the editing and 3d animation was so amazing, looked so close to doom eternal! extremely amazing content for real for real!

i dont even need help learning spy anymore, ur videos are just so well made and fun to watch that i never wanna miss a single one

Great video again. Loving it
