The Monster Living in TF2 - Serverblight

Thank you for the people commenting to let me know about the detail I missed in "Reflection" with the spy actually being the same assimilated player from "Assimilation!" It's honestly really cool to me that minor details like that can go unnoticed on multiple rewatches, really shows how much effort is put into this series!

are you going to check out "Dont join RED" by
Daft Spunky? it's pretty good

The last thing I was expecting was aron's messaging app wallpaper to be the fractal art used as SCP-001's memetic kill agent 💀

i think that due to it assimilating multiple spies probably that it can make itself invisible and disguise itself as non infected players

Luckily this will never happen in reality because Valve wouldn't let something like that stay in their gsme without doing anything about it....... shit

Aaron doesn't use binds. He's just met the blight so many times that even though he hasn't been assimilated he's still getting sucked in so he practicly speaks irl to communicate in game.

I had a major theory on why the server blight specifically chose TF2 as its nesting place:

TF2 is notorious for its shitty moderation and valve having left it behind meaning:

The serverblight knows its difficult and probably wont be removed unless valve realizes the issue
And thats saying that the server blight CAN EVEN BE REMOVED.

At this point the server blight is TF2

Please watch interloper if you loved server blight this much.

one thing i like the most is that is is pseudo unfiction legend, so we the tf2 player can also influce it like people find a lot of way to arms race agaisnt the entity

i will never become assimilated because i hold world records for suicide in tf2

So called "serverblight" when I hit it with 8 crit stickies

Bro just airblast the server blight off teh edge

SCP Daybreak scared the crap out of my kid self, so a TF2 version that is basically the same thing but you've got less areas to hide unsettles me. Great stuff to say the least I'll give this a watch.

Thats why bots are here so if the blite sose up it dies and catnt take the bodys back and evfectifive why keeping it at bay boom

wow. a little over eight minutes for emesis and nearly 34 minutes for serverblight
I know you wanted to make a server blight video and waited for us to ask but your preferential treatment is rather blatant

Huh...
A creepypasta where an entity takes the form of a beloved character which takes pleasure in taking people from the real world to the game for eternal damnation and tricks them into thinking everything is fine. Where have I heard this before?

(A red eyed rodent fades into frame.)

But for real this is one of the best written horror series anyone has created in a while. Can't wait to see where this goes.

good to know the smiling snatcher likes tf2

Got back after watching the series…

…holy shit…

…freaking genius, but holy moly…

would love a part 2 in a few months

I love him getting into tf2 horror. Would be cool to see a full emesis blue analysis

One detail from first and last videos that was unmentioned, breadolphine had a friend named directionz, which we saw in first video, it was the same scout that dicksalot shot (causing in retrospective him becoming part of serverblight) and that's the same scout that got Matt
When breadolphine asks if dicksalot saw him, Aaron just says "no"

that poor scout from the first episode...

Im ao glad you saw this series, it is genuinely one of the best Tf2 fanworks in recent times in my opinion, it really does push tf2 logic as well as its own rules to the limits and in turn is very creative in doing so

Something that might be really important later is that at the end of reflection we see a scout that was able to escape just like dicksalot and breadolphin, this scout was the one that kill binded with breadolphin, if im not mistaken we were able to see him run away during the episode, wich is something interesting because it proves that the server blight isn’t all powerful, because it overlooked this singular person because it was too focused in trying to get dicksalot. It might also be just the server blight trying to follow them by copying the protagonists actions,or it might even be another important character that we will continue to see in the near future , but i gues we will need to wait and see.

I hope this story has a happy ending I’ve gotten too attached to dicksalot

easily the best part of this series to me is that it rarely adds new characters we havent seen to the blight, not cpunting the vic’s from before episode 1, the only person we see who isnt in the match/previously seen be part of the blight is Spoogz

its thing like how HeadShotFraudSter joined the game at the end of episode 3 that kind of stuff, no username goes to waste

It might also just be me, but in the end of Reflection, when Aaron is crying after we see his phone, it looks like there is an arm shadow looming behind his shadow, which could mean anything, but I think that it's supposed to symbolize that he's marked by the serverblight, either to be cautious of him, as a prized target or as it's favorite toy

Never heard of this series, and will indeed check it out. I have a few theories though, as people are pointing out that the blight seems to focus on people that have escaped it before. To me, this could mean a few things.
1. A simple ego boost. If it catches the people that escaped it, it'll feel unstoppable.
2. If it assimilates the people...doesn't that mean it takes their knowledge? What if it views the players that escaped it as smarter, so it focuses them to learn and gain more knowledge? And in that case...why?
3. We've seen that this thing is clearly learning. It seems to know the game in and out, and the only rule it cannot break is the boundaries. It can do a multitude of things the game cannot allow...yet it can't get out of bounds? My best guess is it's playing with food. It can go out of bounds...it just let's it's prey escape in order to follow them to new servers, and assimilate more people. Wouldn't it make sense for something clearly supernatural like that to have a sort of 'lock' on those people and their characters? Similar to have hackers stream snipe people by forcing themselves into lobbies.
Besides those, I have two questions in general.
1. In the video of Matt narrating...if it's like a recording...is it possible he escaped and is just code? Can the people assimilated be reached in that case?
2. If players kill the assimilated people...are those people freed? Like their 'spirits' or 'code' are deleted?

TEAM FORTRESS TWO MENTIONED TWICE!!!!!!!!!! WHAT THE FUCK IS AN UPDATE RAHHHHHHHHHHH

Tbh if i couldn't leave the server because of server blight, i would just think the game is broken and break the PC

Loving the theme song!

my question is what if you go to a 100 uncle danes server and disguise as one of those engineers with a serverblight in the server with you
theyre all bots so like unless the serverblight is only using red assimilated players it would be powerless since it would likely be killed by the team plugin

One little detail you missed. a few players actually survived the sawmill experience. With a single scout makeing it out after the credits.

at the end of reflections and it shows aron crying, we get the same shot twice, him crying infront of his computer. the camera cuts away from this shot to his texts to matt, when it cuts back to him infront of the computer, the shadow of a hand is reaching down into his shadow

SUSverblight

Just so you know, there is also a popular TF2 horror game called Capture the Intelligence.Given how it just got an update, it may be cool to check out.

Fun Fact: TF2 Water can't reflect
2nd Fun Fact: The "Reflection" Had Different Cosmetics and Revolver

The Serverblight knows what reflections are, and used someone else to mimic one

U forgot at Serverblight : reflection, theres a BLU scout, Sailorman that survive attack and stalking followed these duos instruction how to get out. So he follows the instructions and manage escape safety.

I really want to know if it's even possible to kill the assimilated players permanently, i don't think I've seen a serverblight die more than once under the same name.

Spy’s sappin my life force!

Man, I wonder how it'll all end.

one more detail on that last video. there is another survivor. the scout who was listening and keeping his distance as the serverblight got tunnel vision. at the credits we can see him go into blue spawn swat to solider and follow them out of bounds. escaping as well.

Ok I know this sounds stupid but, can they just uninstall the game after disconnecting?
