Meet the Heavy
HeavyVidSplash.png

A towering hulk of a man hailing from the USSR, the Heavy, known in full as the 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 pushover. His firepower is devastating, allowing him to mow down any and all opponents in seconds, be they babies, cowards, or tiny baby-men. However, he does not come without downsides— revving up or firing his Minigun brings his already-unimpressive speed down to a snail's pace, making him a very open and very large target for any opponent outside of his effective range, such as the Sniper. 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, a functional Teleporter, and a well coordinated team controlling his flanks, he is a true force to be reckoned with. Aside from decimating entire teams, the Heavy is able to provide further support for his comrades with an oft-required health boost via his Sandvich — arguably the tastiest Health kit in the game (though some may prefer the taste of steak).

The Heavy is the face of Team Fortress 2. He appears prominently on box-art and promotional materials, starred in the very first Meet the Team video, and has appeared in all further videos to date.

The Heavy is voiced by Gary Schwartz.

Bugs

  • If you die while still firing your primary weapon (Minigun, Iron Curtain, etc), during your death cam, the bullet effect will occasionally still be present in the middle of your screen.
  • The Heavy's bullet chain slung around his large body clips into his back quite noticably in world view.

Trivia

  • The voice actor for the Heavy, Gary Schwartz, also voices the Demoman.
  • 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 and in a backdrop for TF2's library page on Steam.
  • The Heavy is the mascot of "Heavy Gulp," a brand of drink sold in Left 4 Dead 2.
  • In the Left4Dead "The Passing" comic, Louis also has the RED Heavy statue on his desk during his flashback one day after the outbreak.
  • 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, Dalokohs Bar, Fishcake, and Buffalo Steak Sandvich in this fashion.
  • 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 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 Worms: Reloaded as part of one of the forts; the rest of the fort is composed of Dustbowl. A plastic mask of the Heavy also makes an appearance as one of the hats selectable for the player's worms.
  • The Gunner class of Monday Night Combat has a promo item resembling the Heavy's ammo belt, named "Bavcon".
  • The Heavy lives in a remote log mansion in the Template:W.[2]
  • John Henry was hired as the first BLU team Heavy.
  • Heavy posted his first blog post on April 7, 2011 [3] while Soldier was on jury duty.
  • In the Meet the Director comic, it was revealed that Heavy sleeps in a bed next to Sasha, who is in a smaller bed.
    • It was mentioned that the Heavy's father was a "counter-revolutionary" who was executed, and that his mother, sister and himself were sent to a North Siberian Gulag.
  • Even though his family was sent to a gulag, he himself seems to be slightly patriotic, printing the hammer and sickle on the Iron Curtain.
