I have really bad ping and can't play spy consistently because of the ping, I usually just pat the enemy's back and not stab is there a way to see the game at the same tick as the server sees it as?

The data you are seeing for every other player/object is exactly what the server saw X milliseconds ago, where X is your ping.

The only data that is not server-accurate is your position/input.

Trust me when I say that you do not want your input to be serverside.

The game is very forgiving in terms of lag compensation. If you are missing obvious shots, then either your ping is too high and the server is rejecting almost everything you do because of that, in which case it's literally impossible to help you, or your net settings are absolutely fucked.

Or, alternatively, you're just bad.

That's only true with interpolation and prediction disabled.
