Initial stab kill

Has anyone ever gotten a kill with the initial stab (1 damage) to see what it looks like? Anonynja 17:02, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

It looks like this[1] Steviestar3 18:33, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

Unused kill icon

The unused kill icon is now used. Seriously, go check it yourself. Someone edit everything pertaining to the tauntkill, I'm not sure how. — The preceding unsigned comment was added by Lilgreenman (talk) • (contribs) 2011-03-19T15:44:54

I just checked, and it's not. It still uses the regular ubersaw kill icon.--Focusknock 08:35, 30 March 2011 (UTC)

Unseen Undocumented Update on Ubersaw

Spinal Tap now gives 100% ubercharge on successful taunt kill. I have tested it multiple times and I have others who have also done it. Perhaps this was added in with the latest patchApril 14, 2011 Patch? -KajiVena of TheVille 22:41, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

I'm going to test it, but I think it still gives 50% ubercharge. User:Ohyeahcrucz/Sig2 22:43, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

Trust me, it doesn't. I have recorded demos on self-made servers with no mods. I can provide said Demo if needed. -KajiVena of TheVille 22:50, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

Ubersaw Taunt Description

"The Medic stabs an enemy and stuns them, yanks the weapon out, and they die. He earns 100% ÜberCharge."

this is from the class' line up of weapons, for the ubersaw taunt.

he doesn't earn 100% uber UPON the kill, but rather he earns 25% uber upon the initial stab then gains another 75% uber from getting the kill.

a bit rewording? Gamecrazy009 20:10, 5 August 2011 (PDT)

i also want to add that they updated the ubersaw taunt! Gamecrazy009 18:46, 15 August 2011 (PDT)

Did they when? I dont think it was in any recent patches. Dr. Blutengott 19:50, 15 August 2011 (PDT)

i first noticed it last week, but it seems valve has been updating (as they said!) secretly, and of course they added the ubersaw taunt kill icon (which says its unused!) Gamecrazy009 15:00, 16 August 2011 (PDT)

Really? Would you mind taking some screen shots? Dr. Blutengott 18:00, 16 August 2011 (PDT)

ALRIGHTY after some research of the Ubersaw i found more!

THIS is the first screenshot! in a real game i taunt killed a buddy of mine to test it, notice the KILL ICON and the charge of my uber!

THIS SECOND screenshot is in Itemtest! i taunt killed a bot it spawned with an ubersaw and after taunt killing i noticed that the kill was very out-dated!

Gamecrazy009 20:43, 16 August 2011 (PDT)

Hmm it looks ok. Id ask on the IRC if others can test it though, see if they can find which update it was. Otherwise feel free to make the change. Dr. Blutengott 18:32, 17 August 2011 (PDT)

Tested by me and Moussekateer, still same kill icon.  –  Cructo [T][C] 18:43, 17 August 2011 (PDT)

Well things took a turn for the bizarre, as I saw the kill icon today (and screen capped it), however, later Cructo and I tested a bunch of stuff and it still the same old kill icon. This is certainly a weird situation, I'm not entirely sure what to make of it. There isn't even a reason the icon would show up, the game treats the kill as an Ubersaw kill. Balladofwindfishes 10:44, 18 August 2011 (PDT)

Theory: it only shows the taunt kill image if both parts of the taunt hit? Maybe only if one hits? ==FaxCelestis 11:56, 18 August 2011 (PDT)

We tested both of those theories, and neither showed the kill icon. Balladofwindfishes 12:15, 18 August 2011 (PDT)

You must remember that this kill icon does not show up in itemtest (and it does not give 100% charge either!) Gamecrazy009 06:22, 19 August 2011 (PDT)

We tested it on 2fort.  –  Cructo [T][C] 07:49, 20 August 2011 (PDT)

unused kill icon

The 'unused kill icon' is actually used, I saw it today. --Shattered Heart Lynx 21:16, 23 September 2011 (PDT)

Yeah I saw it today also, maybe its only on certain servers? Combustable lemon 05:28, 26 September 2011 (PDT)

As of today, I got the unused kill icon in game more than once. I got a screenshot of it.[2] Don't know if it's on more than one server right now, though. ETA: Seems to be server dependent. Weird. Xanderkins 16:49, 27 February 2012 (PST)

There's some popular server plug-ins that enable it. Balladofwindfishes 17:40, 27 February 2012 (PST)

Yet to check, but today's update may have implemented it. --superslinger2007 16:24, 2 October 2013 (PDT)

Video

Again, don't know how to add videos, and don't know if you guys want a video, but here's link to a video demonstrating the taunt http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAEyUanQl8A --PyroGothNerd (talk) 15:41, 25 December 2013 (PST)

The video isn't really needed really. Ashes (talk) 15:52, 25 December 2013 (PST)
