Run, cowards! Tweet tweet tweeeet!
The Heavy teaching his bird how to be intimidating

The Red Army Robin is a community-created cosmetic item for the Heavy. It is a team-colored European Robin that stands on the Heavy's left shoulder.

When players equipped with this item kill an enemy unassisted by another player, the killfeed shows everyone in Pyroland that it gets the assist, with its custom name if it has one.
