I just recently bought TF2 so I'm really not good or anything but I found out that I am constantly being raped by spies. I'm doing 180's/360's like every other second and still seem to get freaking backstabbed all the time. It's pretty frustrated, especially when I have uber and get BS'd to hell from outta nowhere.

Does anyone have any good tips on how to not get BS'd so much as a medic (other than keep looking/have a pyro protect you)?

Keeping looking behind you AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE I guess.

1. Pull your ubersaw, if you have it. If not get it by going to an achievement server. Use it to spycheck teammates. If you go up 20% in uber they are a spy.
2. Also use your blutslauger if your health is low, it bumps health 3 for every shot connected with a spy. Better than the needle gun, by mass opinion.
3. Find a pyro to heal. They tend to spray fire everywhere, and the same speed as spies, it is difficult to chain a medic pyro/backstab.

I tend to run around A LOT. Seriously, don't ever stop and you should be fine.

Like Alexander said. Run around a lot. If you hear a *swish* behind you it's a spy.

Spinning helps also. If you turn away, at least not completely around, your chain of healing won't break. Don't let the spy get behind you

You can turn all the way around and a beam won't break. So long as the person doesn't get our of range.

True, I've always found that a little bit odd but it's da truth

Yeah, it's pretty weird considering the chain breaks through a wall, and through enemies (rarely) but through yourself?

Walk backwards with your healing target facing forwards.
