The '''Feign Death''' is a [[Spy (Classic)|Spy]] ability in Team Fortress Classic. When used the Spy would lay on the ground and either let out a death scream or remain silent depending on the player's discretion, like he was dead, to trick his enemies. The Spy can look around while using this ability, but he can't move. In Team Fortress Classic, bodies would disappear after some time, just like [[ragdoll]]s disappear in [[Team Fortress 2]]. The Spy body from the feign death didn't disappear and you could also collide with it, just as you would an enemy, making this a way to know if the dead body was actually a Spy using this ability. The Spy cannot regain normal movement if someone is standing on top of his faux corpse, any enemy aware enough can restrict the Spy's ability to fight back or run away.

The Feign Death is a Spy ability in Team Fortress Classic. When used the Spy would lay on the ground and either let out a death scream or remain silent depending on the player's discretion, like he was dead, to trick his enemies. The Spy can look around while using this ability, but he can't move; looking around while feigning death will result in the Spy's head moving around. In Team Fortress Classic, bodies would disappear after some time, just like ragdolls disappear in Team Fortress 2. The Spy body from the feign death didn't disappear and you could also collide with it, just as you would an enemy, making this a way to know if the dead body was actually a Spy using this ability. The Spy cannot regain normal movement if someone is standing on top of his faux corpse, any enemy aware enough can restrict the Spy's ability to fight back or run away.

Trivia

  • The Feign Death ability was recreated in Team Fortress 2 via the Dead Ringer, but works differently than the original ability from TFC.
