— The Heavy prophesying about the final judgement
 ”

The Apoco-Fists are a promotional melee weapon for the Heavy. It is based on the gloves worn by Killbane from the video game Saints Row: The Third; a pair of black, gold-lined, slightly glowing diamond-studded boxing gloves with a skull emblem on each middle finger.

This weapon functions identically to the Fists, but with an added cosmetic function: any enemies killed by a Critical hit or Mini-Crit are gibbed.

Taunting with the Apoco-Fists equipped results in the High Noon kill taunt. If under the effects of a critical or Mini-Crit boost, the High Noon taunt also gibs enemies.

This item was awarded in Genuine quality to players who pre-ordered Saints Row: The Third on Steam before November 15, 2011.
