−
This weapon functions just like the [[Fists]] except for an additional [[backstab]]-like mechanic. The weapon will always crit from behind in an arc similar to that of the backstab. Any hits from this weapon that strike targets in the back will do no damage but will cause victims to [[Schadenfreude|burst into laughter]], leaving them temporarily defenseless. Critical hits given by crit-boost items like the [[Kritzkrieg]] that are not from behind will deal normal critical damage. [[Mini-crits]] will not cause opponents to laugh. Laughing will only occur if the victim is in a position where they would normally be able to taunt, such as under [[Ubercharge]] effects. This means Critical hits do not effect disguised or cloaked Spies in any way, or if the victim is underwater.

“
I have new way to kill cowards.
Click to listen
— The Heavy while tickling someone
 ”

The Holiday Punch is a community-created melee weapon for the Heavy. It is a large pair of team-colored knitted mittens, featuring a decorative snowflake woven into the back.

This weapon functions similarly to the Fists except for an additional backstab-esque mechanic. The weapon always deals critical hits from behind in an arc similar to that of the Backburner's (approximately 90 degrees). Any critical hits from this weapon, whether from behind or otherwise, do no damage, but cause victims to burst into laughter, leaving them temporarily defenseless. Those under the effects of an ÜberCharge can be forced to laugh. Victims who also have the Holiday Punch equipped and held are always forced to laugh when hit by a Heavy wielding the Holiday Punch, regardless of the damage or angle of the hit. Mini-crits do not cause opponents to laugh. Laughing only occurs if the victim is in a position where they would normally be able to taunt; this means that critical hits do not affect disguised or cloaked Spies, Engineers hauling a building in any way, or victims who are underwater, in the air, or already taunting.

Taunting with the Holiday Punch equipped results in the High Noon taunt.

The Holiday Punch was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
