Woosh!
The Scout mimicking the sound

The Batsaber is a community-created melee weapon for the Scout. It is a metallic tube with a rubberized grip that emits a team-colored beam of light that resembles the size and shape of the stock Bat. It emits an electronic noise when swung, may it hit or miss.

This weapon functions identically to the default Bat, but with an added cosmetic function: enemies killed by the Batsaber suffer a distinctive death by vaporization, causing them to turn black, hover in mid-air while performing a specific disintegration animation surrounded by team-colored particles, and then disappear into ashes.

The Batsaber may be inspected by using the inspect item key.

The Batsaber was contributed to the Steam Workshop under the same name.
