Smissmas 2013

“

Well, it's December again, assuming you adhere to the Gregorian Calendar, there's an etching of frost on the ol' window panes, unless you live somewhere temperate, and the lights are shining brightly on the ol' tree you may or may not have, depending on religious affiliation and stance on deforestation. That can only mean one thing: It's Smissmas, everybody! It's a holiday we invented that we'd love you to celebrate with us. — TF2 Blog

The Smissmas 2013 update was a major content update for Team Fortress 2, released on December 20, 2013 Patch. It is a sequel of past community-made updates before, by Valve's request in coincidence of the Christmas Workshop submissions.
