He didn't play lots of Agent. I have over a hundred hours on her. Let's dance.
Base Changes
Agent now has access to two Gadget slots. The first slot is used for Sappers and the second is used for the Spy Camera, and certain new unlocks.
Can now see enemy health outside of Competitive mode.
Primary Changes
All Revolvers now have the same ramp-up as the Lever Shotguns, dealing 75 damage point-blank.

This is really dumb, but I thought it'd be neat if you had a proper 52-card deck. You still have plenty of shots and will be eating up ammo as Agent anyway, so this shouldn't be too bad.

Works more closely to the TF2 version to make it a bit less punishing. Doesn't inherit the Revolver ramp-up bonus, though. You get a bit more leniency with headshots in exchange for less GENERAL leniency. You get a bit more chance to use your headshots, but you gotta use 'em.

Given the SIlenced PIstol does around the same amount of damage at full rampup as the stock revolver, I think this is a nominal change, unless you're fighting a Mechanic Nest or something.
The accuracy change is mostly because of how silenced weapons work in most games, to make it feel a bit more like one. Plus, yknow, might make it a bit more viable at being a revolver that screws over nests, which is funny.

Slight fix to give this weapon some more viability. The damage ramp-up bonus makes this weapon's niche kind of sad, since a revolver can two-shot a Medic anyway, so I gave it a bit of love to compete with the Revolver more.

PDA (Now Gadget) Changes
Weapons in the PDA category have now been split into 2 seperate Gadget slot. For reference, Gadget 1 includes all of her Sappers (Sapper, Stray Reflex, Slow Burn) and Gadget 2 uses her "highlighting" items (Spy Camera, Radius Scanner).
Reasoning/Notes
Reasoning/Notes
The Slow burn at the moment doesn't really... do much? It's central gimmick is team co-ordination, which it doesn't really do since it's hard to tell your team you've sapped a building. This rework fixes that by having the sapper auto-ESP any sapped buildings and more leans into the role of giving your team an opening by making the sapper disable buildings for far longer while not being deadly at all.

Some buffs to make this a bit stronger. Now replaces the Disguise Kit as an unlock, in case you're in a scenario where manual disguises simply aren't useful (such as a lack of Mechanics, or if youre using a knife that nerfs them like the YER or Wraith.)

Disguise Kit Changes
Disguise Kit Changes
Taking damage with disguise equipped no longer causes pain grunt or visual loss of health to your disguised player. Debuff effects such as fire and liquids are also hidden.
Disguises now show unusual effects.
You can now switch your Disguise’s weapons by hitting “Inspect” to cycle.
Damage resistances apply when disguising as teammates.
Items such as the Crossbows and Fire Extinguisher used by the enemy will interact with you as if you were an enemy while disguised as one
Scoping with the Spy Camera will now mimic Sniper Rifle scoping and Minigun spinning when disguised as the relevant class and holding their primary
Hold SHIFT (re-bindable) while disguised as a class that moves slower than yourself to move at normal running speed
Fixed a bug where Fittanium particle effects weren't hidden while disguised.
Melee attacks cause you to flinch and disorients your camera briefly
Spy Camera ESP still displays while disguised
Is now an item slot, that can be exchanged for other items
Now has a unique model, inspired by retro gaming consoles (Gameboy for reference)
Reasoning/Notes
Reasoning/Notes
These are all QOL and bugfixes anyway.
Disguises are hilariously weak in TC2, which is strange given they are already somewhat subpar in TF2. These changes should make them a LOT more usable by Agents without rendering them completely obseleted by even a singular bullet.
Melee Changes
Knife Changes (Applies to all Knives)
Minicrit backstabs now have a new viewmodel animation where Agent moves her knife off to the side rather than upwards.
Minicrit backstabs do a flat 50% of the enemy’s base health now.
Minicrit backstabs now increase weapon switchspeed by 50% for 5 seconds
Reasoning/Notes
Reasoning/Notes
Minicrit backstabs are, in my opinion, a necessary evil.
Though their implementation is to be frank, quite odd. And incredibly unpredictable. Like how is an average Agent player supposed to be able to tell whether or not an animation is playing at .75x speed?
This is a rework that was in GOOSE, although it was largely my idea (as I was the Agent Main between us) so I have left it largely unchanged.

SUFFER
In all seriousness, the Icicle was always a very boring weapon that served to mitigate a weakness in the most uninspired way possible, in return for an equally uninspired downside. This change should make it... A lot more interesting, to say the least.

This weapon always weirdly competed with the Kunai as the EPIC CHAINSTAB KNIFE!! Which I don't really like, so this should hopefully make it a bit less punishing but also not as chainstabby.

The Wraith is a mostly fine, albeit rather "mid" weapon. It got nerfed quite hard post-release and this aims to make up for it by adding some new utility and increasing how many spells you can cast.

Gain 1 spell for every kill, assist, or building destruction/assist
On backstab: Gain 2 Spells
Maximum of 4 held Spells

Holding [Reload] changes spell.
Respite: Heal a teammate for 75 health and remove all debuffs. Costs 1 Spell

Reasoning/Notes
The lack of this downside on the TC2 version of the C&D baffles me. The TC2 version of the item just kind of feels like it dips too close into Direct Upgrade territory due to how minimal its downsides are.
These downsides have been done to make the Cloak and Dagger do what I think it was supposed to do: Be a watch that encourages much more pre-meditated play.

I have always thought the Ringer to have, quite frankly, terrible design. I never liked the cheesy tank-y brute force playstyle that it encouraged, so I've toned down the damage resistance and required you to deal damage to recharge it.
The goal here is to combo with your Primary, obviously, as a pseudo-Gun-Agent watch, keeping the other watches for the more traditional Agent playstyles.
