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.
