The Hot Hand 1 - 100 Gain a speed boost when you hit an enemy player -20% damage penalty This melee slap tells your opponent, and anyone watching the kill feed, that your hand just gave some lucky face the gift of slapping it stupid.

The Hot Hand is a melee weapon for the Pyro. It is a team-colored (grey for RED, dark yellow for BLU) rubber glove with two yellow bands and one grey band on the wrist and soot-darkened fingertips.

Upon hitting an enemy with this weapon, the player gains a speed boost and the hit is announced in the kill feed similar to the Holy Mackerel and the Unarmed Combat in showing a SLAP KILL!, FISH KILL! and ARM KILL! during a successful kill respectively.

Taunting with the Hot Hand equipped will perform the Hadouken kill taunt.

Update history

October 20, 2017 Patch #1 (Jungle Inferno Update)

• Added the Hot Hand to the game.

Bugs

• If the player assists a slap kill, the kill icon will not be highlighted in the kill feed like other kills and assists.
• The glove is always RED version (grey color) in the client view.

Trivia

• The Hot Hand was called the Slap Attack on the Jungle Inferno Day 4 Update page, likely referencing an old name considered during development but later scrapped in favor of its current one. Valve silently fixed the page.
