“

Some people think they can outsmart me - maybe... maybe. I have yet to meet one that can outsmart bullet. Click to listen — The Heavy

”

A towering hulk of a man hailing from the USSR, the Heavy, also known as Heavy Weapons Guy, is the largest, and possibly most dangerous class in Team Fortress 2. Boasting the highest stamina and biggest gun; the Heavy is no easy pushover. His firepower is highly impressive, allowing him to mow down any and all opponents in mere seconds; be they babies, cowards, or tiny baby-men. However, he comes not without downsides - revving up and firing his Minigun brings his already-unimpressive speed down to a snail's pace; making him an open, and very large, target for any opponent outside his range of fire. Despite his imposing stature, the Heavy's slow gait means he must often rely upon his teammates to lend a helping hand: with a Medic by his side and a well coordinated team controlling his flanks, he is a true force to be reckoned with. Alongside decimating entire teams; the Heavy is able to provide further support for his comrades with an oft-required health boost via his Sandvich; the tastiest Health kit in the game.

The Heavy is arguably the 'face' of Team Fortress 2. He appears most prominently on box-art and promotional materials, as well as starring in the very first Meet the Team video and all further videos to date. Additionally, he also appears in Template:W as the Team Fortress 2 representative; regaling many stories and fun facts that are as of now, not canonical.

The Heavy is voiced by Gary Schwartz.

Bio

Name: N/A Location of origin: Russia, Soviet Union Job: Mow Down Motto: "Shooting Good." Emblems:    Description: Like a hibernating bear, the Heavy appears to be a gentle giant. Also like a bear, confusing his deliberate, sleepy demeanor with gentleness will get you ripped limb from limb. Though he speaks simply and moves with an economy of energy that's often confused with napping, the Heavy isn't dumb, he's not your big friend, and he generally wishes you'd just shut up before he has to make you shut up.

Trivia

• The Heavy's Minigun fires 4 shots per 1 ammo point (out of 200) and it takes him 20 seconds of non-stop firing to run out of ammo, meaning that "Sasha" only fires 2,400 rounds per minute rather than 10,000 rounds per minute, as the Heavy claims in the Meet the Heavy trailer.
• The songs the Heavy may sing as part of his response rules include Mily Balakirev's 'Song of the Volga Boatmen', Chopin's 'Funeral March', Khachaturian's 'Sabre Dance'.
• The emblem on the Heavy's sleeve was originally a skull and crossbones. This is still visible in Meet the Heavy.
• The Heavy is the mascot of "Heavy Gulp," a brand of drink sold in Left 4 Dead 2.
• The BLU Heavy has been killed and/or horribly maimed in every Meet the Team video to date, alongside an equally unlucky teammate, the BLU Soldier.
• The Heavy's hands are so large, he grips the pump of his Shotgun with only his thumb and index finger, and can spin his Shotgun around his finger as a taunt. He also holds the Sandvich and Dalokohs Bar in this fashion.
  • Also, as seen in Meet the Scout, he fires his Shotgun with his ring finger.
• John Henry was hired as the first BLU team Heavy.
• The voice actor for the Heavy, Gary Schwartz, also voices the Demoman.
• The Heavy makes an appearance in Telltale Games' Poker Night at the Inventory; players can unlock the Iron Curtain by beating him in a special round. In addition to being one of the 4 main characters in Poker Night, the Heavy also makes appearances in 2 of the unlockable card decks. In the "TF2" card deck, he appears as the King card for both of the red suits (diamonds and hearts), and in the "Poker Night" card deck, he appears as the King of Diamonds only.
• The Heavy makes an appearance in Template:W as one of the forts; the rest of the fort is composed of Dustbowl. As well, a plastic mask of the Heavy is a selectable hat for the player's worms.
