Some pretty bad habits in here, like recommending medic disguise, which is very situational, and too many moves that would get you killed against good players in an instant. You've got a good idea with these vids, but if you diversified and played against better players I'd be very interested to see where your videos could go.
@Glorgathon23 my videos are about having fun, not about being super awesome on the most part. The idea is to get people to some level of competancy because there really isn't much use dedicating your time to being perfect as spy, since it's not a competitive class. Dead Ringer particularily is always flawed against good opponents, but it's fun and that's what matters.
@Ribbo I respect that your videos are for having fun, and that's fair enough, just wanted to give an opinion on how to make them better for instruction, but if that's not your aim then that's cool, your videos. I do disagree with it not being worthwhile being dedicated to perfecting your spy play. Aside from it being useful for breaking stalemates in 6v6, it's obviously used in highlander too. And plus, many of us try to be perfect at spy just for fun XD
@The3rdBaboon lol i've reset my stats too many times to know that. Maybe around 3000 hours at a guess. :) I will say I got a strange knife 3 weeks ago and it has 2280 kills on it right now
@Frongritiy No, but what it does do is if you change class before you fully cloak, the enemy see the smoke animation, giving your position away. I do this all the time, it's a super bad habit
Should add, there are plenty of good tips on here too :)

Does the smoke from disguising really obscure your view that much in first person? It looks really annoying in the video.
