Thanks for the compliments good sir! Yes, perfecting side strafing and strafing in general is ESSENTIAL not just when playing Spy but other classes too. You play a lot of soldier from what I know, so you should be a lot better in that department than I am.
Especially when it comes to surfing damage. Notice at the end of the video where the guy called Zeroless (he was playing demo and hitting me with a pan) hit me and i managed to surf my way from his pan damage to the sniper's back for a backstab.
Believe it or not, strafing/side strafing can work on CSn too. Be confident in yourself and don't be put off just because CSn is full of competent players. Being able to do a trick stab depends on how you pull it off. You've got to anticipate the smart players anticipating you. It is like a game of chess, you predict the moves of your opponent who is also predicting yours. Whoever predicts more/better, wins.
Some if not most of these players in this video are really good (both EU and US) and know what they are doing. I don't play in 32/33 man servers with a high ceiling for nothing ya know.
P.S. I love how you seperate pub players and CSn players lol
Trust me, anything that was done in this video can be replicated in CSn and in other servers with a similiar/higher skill ceiling. It is not impossible.
