[SFM] The Pybro

Edit: HOW
In my least logical short yet, set during the fictitious Spy vs Engineer update, a BLU engineer gets too cocky and finds himself surrounded by french spies and failed headshots.
A homewrecker-wielding BLU Pyro appears to help the Engi and the two begin a battle for survival and a race against time to stop the World's Slowest Sapper from destroying his work.

This was originally a work in progress from the start of the year, so I tried to finish it for the Saxxies. I got tied up in various things though, and despite pouring a week and a half of all-nighters into the final few minutes I missed the deadline by a decent margin. It's nowhere near quality enough for the Saxxies, though, since there's flickery lights and plot holes everywhere because this entire thing was basically an excuse to animate some good ol' fights.

There's still a lot more I wanted to add to this short, such as more heart-pounding fights and a tie-in/explanation for why some bog-standard ordinary mercenaries are suddenly capable of gun kata, and I'll proabably remake it at sometime in the future.

In the meantime, enjoy! More updates to follow.

When I first watched this I thought, damn, that engineer really overextended for one spy.

Then I played engineer

[Sean-yjwq]

0:48 have you noticed that in this scene most of the spies of ambassadors and yet none of them landed a headshot, classic TF2

[acrail]

"That was a recreation of a competitive pyro clip I hold very dear to my heart, as you can see our engineer is in trouble and he's surrounded by multiple spys, matter of fact THE ENTIRE SERVER IS PLAYING SPY GUYS PLEASE STOP! Anyways.."

[derekhightower]

1:04 I love how that spy is completely motionless as the flare hits him

[BartixShieldsmen]

LazyPurple: how it FEELS to play pybro

[Aceofthefire]

When somebody gets killed by 1 sentry and tells their entire team to go spy

[norikofu]

Plot twist:
*All those spies had dead ringers.*

[BamBoozlerCL]

No team needs 23 spies and 1 engineer.

[rlharveson]

If Pyro saw the real world instead of a fantasy world . . this would probably be him

Edit: Back one year later and holy crap, how did I manage to get this many likes by such a simple comment such as this?

[CHILLIN]

0:51 I love how the engineer realises his sentry is getting sapped and just gives up on life

[SamutheHamu]

I am now beginning to wonder how come this amazing piece of source filmmaker not get a saxxy award.

[bigbrainpewdiepie]

0:34 when everybody in the server gets annoyed at the one sentry

[Izzyeet]

1:04 so thats how Valve making Unusual Hats

[xenit]

So much attention to detail
The gunslinger crit on it's third hit during the engie duel
The frontier justice was only shot three times
The spycicle melted
The scorch shot was overpowered
The ambi spies missed almost every shot
Even the red tape recorder downgraded the sentry
For yall talking about the widow maker, at the start, there's a dispenser behind him, and he probably got enough chip.
The frontier justice reloaded when engie picked it up.

[HeyoImKaGo]

2:17 Makes me feel something i haven't felt in a long while, a way to make SHOTGUN DUELING a thing that is both aggressive and graceful in performance

[mangothemike]

“Spy’s sappin’ my sentry.”

“Thanks.”

[Profile__]

Man, I wish playing Pyro was this diverse and fast and versatile.

[포츠]

1:07
Engineer : Spy sapping my sentry
Pyro : (Thanks voice)

[ThelVadam]

Look at pyro’s amazing ability to spread magic and happiness to others

[silentone]

I love how the pyro was devoted to get the sentry working, even going as far as almost DYING to get it to work. That pyro... respect.
