TemLord: /* Breast Milk Stab (or surf-stab but that's lame) */ For some reason the sentence just cut off at the end. I finished it with what I assume the editor originally intended to be there.

 A deprecated fad term for approaching a stab from above an enemy at a 10 - 20 degree angle. Initially proposed by the spy "tf2klown" in 2012 as a joke, the term picked up popularity in 2019 and 2020 dueto consistent references by influential spies such as swipez referencing it in both his discord server and in several (now deleted) short videos. The term had multiple interpretations due to its nature as a prevalent joke fad name, but the general consensus was that this stab referred to a quick and shallow surf stab.

 The process of strafing in a way to counter the opponents strafe, usually to cut off their sideways strafe however it can extend into a backpedal stab. An enemy that is strafing would not be able to be stabbed by a Matador due to them using a strafe key as when using a strafe key the player's movement is pulling more sideways and away from the spy as well as their aim having to move less than normal. The point of Circle Strafing is to counter the opponents strafes instead of attempting a matador in which would fail.
