— The Pyro on slapping enemies
 ”

The Hot Hand is a melee weapon for the Pyro. It is a grey, heavy, fire-resistant glove with reflective yellow and silver bands on the wrist and soot-darkened fingertips. It appears similar to the gloves worn by real-life firemen.

Unlike other melee weapons, pressing primary fire (default key: MOUSE1) causes two consecutive melee attacks. The weapon deals less damage than the Fire Axe, which is split between the two slaps (28 x 2, for a total of 56 damage).

Upon hitting an enemy with this weapon, the player gains a speed boost for 1 second and the hit is announced in the kill feed, similar to the Holy Mackerel and the Unarmed Combat. Kills with this weapon are shown as "SLAP KILL!" in the killfeed; like the aforementioned weapons, this message does not show if the victim is a Spy using an active Dead Ringer.

Taunting with the Hot Hand equipped results in the Hadouken kill taunt.

Unlike the Gunboats, Gunslinger, Mantreads, Ali Baba's Wee Booties, and Bootlegger, the Hot Hand does not appear on the player model unless it is the Pyro's active weapon.

The Hot Hand is automatically given to any player who completes the Pyroland Contract "The Hot Hand".
