BEHOLD! My big project, finally completed after three and a half months (on and off)! What do you do when you are stuck in an Arena match against all odds? Accidentally find the recipe for epicness, that's what!

If you have any questions about how I did something, ask away. I'll try and answer everything.

Subtitles are available in English, French (translated by yours truly), Danish (by Zwip-Zwap Zapony), Polish (by Mareko51 and LordDarthHarry), Russian (by Flash POW), Portuguese (by Mustain95), Lithuanian (by Sewpar), Swedish (by TheWip9), Italian (by AlexBESTGTA/69blackbat), German (by HanVelsing), Dutch (by TheRealDutchOwner), Spanish (by TheGrandMaster110), Croatian (by bixi36), Serbian (by JohnNWorkovic14), Norwegian (by Ostepopen3), Finnish (by Fadeitje), Chinese (by 某 路人) and Hungarian (by patrik1957). If you think you can (and want to) translate them in another language, feel free to ask!

    0:51 As we can see here, the domination sound effect plays when this soldier dies. What this implies is that the soldier is so bad that he somehow died 3 times to the sniper before the game even started. That is actually crazy
  • @helton1812
    fun fact: the reason scout gets healed by the scrumpy-bonk combo is because scrumpy + bonk +blood is the actual formula for medic's healing juice
  • @likewastaken0906
    I like how out of everyone (except scout) pyro was the only one that was normal. He was just protecting engineer.
  • 1:10 that demoman is actually a pro, he recognized an enemy even though he couldn’t see very well and the soldier was far away, Impressive.
  • @Matteo73M
    Coming back to this after the release of “ like white in spy “
    Really confirms my questions and answers
  • @Northstar135
    I feel bad for that poor medic. Guy was just doing his job, barely spoke, and got his leg broken and shot to pieces by a sentry. An unfortunate demise.
  • @Hustlery
    It's a tradition to come back and watch this masterpiece every year
  • @NoobyNubguy
    11 years late but I love how creative the use of tf2’s weapons are in this video, the sentry crushing the engineers skull was metal, and overall the ways the scout fought back were very creative. Overall masterpiece of a SFM and definitely deserves this many views
  • @Quarze2
    I just realised it is 10 years old, such a timeless “epic” masterpiece, i watched it when i was a young child and now, this makes me feel old as if i was 60.
  • @CrazedGunmann
    Engineers death is so fucking brutal, imagine someone pushing your sentry on top of you then have it crush your head when it goes to reload its rockets.
  • Blu Scout is so focused on fighting that in the whole video he said something only 4 times
    Definetly a pro player
  • @dooksmckooks
    imagine this remade with today's SFM. would be absolutely peak animation
  • @AlphaTheBird
    4 years later, still a masterpiece. Bro got that ultra instinct
  • @renzzxd6475
    This animation is what introduced me to Team Fortress 2 ❤️
  • The red heavy has my respect due to actually feeling bad for scout when spy shot him
  • @VoLTJay
    Stays true to the lore and it’s action packed. I remember seeing this when it first came out. Beautiful
  • @ScoutTF2Gaming
    as someone who became an animator on SFM, watching this again opened an entirely new eye to me. which made this video so much better
  • @ThatD1spynser
    Nice attention to detail, like when scout killed spy, it gouged out his left eye, but no wrangler shield I guess
