Butterfly Knife replacement: Poisoned Knife.

A countdown to death that doesn't actually do damage itself is... actually a pretty good idea, too. I'd consider using it to get post-humous revenge on any lucky pyro who manages to tag me coming out of cloak, if nothing else.

So it would uncloak you, and all, but wouldn't alert the victim for 3-5 seconds?  It sounds like it would be a viable option, but it really seems to lack the instant gratification of a good backstab.  That is, unless they explode violently and do minor damage to other players... :perfect:

The victim would get to see how close they are to death by poison. Just like a normal attack, it can't be done while cloaked and causes the disguise to fall off.

Since one hit still has a good chance to result in a death - especially a posthumous one - it might be necessary, balance-wise, to reduce the damage it does, perhaps even as far as zero, so the poison is the only effect.

I think what it lacks in the gratification of an instant kill it makes up for in the possibility of gratification from posthumous kills, as well as possibly being a bit deadlier overall in the right hands. It's not easy to set up a good backstab, but if any old facestab is potentially fatal, a suicide Spy can have as disruptive an effect as a suicide Pyro. Beautiful, beautiful chaos ensues as everyone you stabbed frantically runs for the nearest health packs or mashes on the Medic button.

What the Spy really needs to cause mayhem is a knife that, upon stabbing, turns the target into that spy and renders him susceptible to friendly fire while the spy is auto disguised as that player.

how about

the engineer can build something that looks like an enemy spy

so that when the real enemy spy shows up, he goes

"oh, okay, that other enemy spy already has this handled.  i will move right along."

with nobody the wiser.

A wrench that lets you lock the wrist of the spy, twist 360 slowly so you can hear the grinding snap of his wrist bones as you pluck the knife from his hand.  At this point you are given the option to jam the knife into his lower spine and tell the spy that you know where his kids go to school and that it would be a terrible shame if someone were to build a sentry at their bus stop.

And before they black out, you'll get to tell them that their father never loved them.

Spy respawn delayed additional 10 seconds.

a wrench that kills all spies in both teams and doesn't let anyone pick spy ever again in that server

alt fire does the same but for all other servers

A wrench that gives you a personal ubercharge. The only way you can charge it is by killing spies.

A wrench that, when right clicked, will allow you to ubercharge a machine as you tank with it. Maybe disable movement. Give it a terrible duration(4 seconds max.)

You can only charge it with successful attacks from your own weapons. The wrench is 25% a pop, the pistol 1%, and the shotgun who knows.

Give every other class in the game except spy a box of Kleenex.

so that when the real enemy spy shows up, he goes

"oh, okay, that other enemy spy already has this handled.  i will move right along."

with nobody the wiser.

I don't even trust myself to get the job done, let alone some other spy.

A Wrench that makes all buildings you hit with it generate L4D Tanks every 3 seconds which only attack the other team, going after spies first, then medics, then everyone but pyros because everyone knows that Tanks are weak against fire.  Sentries shoot the fuckers, dispensers and teleporters just spawn 'em.
