Upon taunting with the Kritzkrieg equipped, the Medic puts his face to the barrel of his weapon and inhales deeply before returning to work.
Performing the taunt does not contribute to the ÜberCharge meter but will count towards the total healing on the scoreboard. It is possible to heal an ally while performing this taunt if the player has selected the 'Medi Gun heal after release' in Multiplayer options. The taunt proves invaluable when the player is taking passive damage such as fire or bleeding, or when natural health regeneration is too slow.
The Oktoberfest taunt can be used during Humiliation and Stalemates.

Update history
- The taunt and its accompanying voice clip "Ha ha ha, Oktoberfest!" are disabled.
- The taunt is reinstated but the sound is not included. It was speculated that the sound was removed due to being perceived as a drug reference. From a logical perspective, it would be difficult to breathe in and shout at the same time.
Trivia
- This taunt was originally designed for the Medi Gun. [1] It was speculated to have been removed to avoid drug references, but was eventually re-added for the Kritzkrieg.
- It is speculated that the inhale animation is a reference to marijuana in water pipes, but given the Medic's background, it is more likely a reference to the smelling of brews during the Template:W celebrations in Germany.
- The patch notes and in-game tips incorrectly state that the taunt heals 10 health.
