— The Engineer on thrilling robotic prostheses
|
” |
Upon taunting with the Gunslinger equipped, the Engineer pulls a rip-cord from his mechanical prosthetic, revving the hand of his Gunslinger up to vicious speeds, after which he thrusts it forward, shredding any enemy player slow, unaware, or simply unfortunate enough to be within reach at the time. The taunt inflicts several 1-damage hits and stuns the victim before inflicting a final blow which deals over 450 damage, instantly killing any class that isn't invulnerable at the time.
Like other taunts, the Organ Grinder can be performed during Humiliation as a last-ditch effort to defend oneself or to take out an enemy on the winning team barreling into the spawn room, as well as during Stalemate.

Trivia
- This taunt is one of the only special taunts without an accompanying achievement, along with the Medic's Spinal Tap, Medicating Melody and Oktoberfest taunts.
- If an enemy is killed by the hand's spinning they will ragdoll, but if they are killed by the removal of the hand, they will gib.
- Unlike most other taunt attacks, Organ Grinder does not hit based on the enemy player's position relative to the taunt animation- to hit, the target must be on the line indicated by the Engineer's crosshairs at the start of the taunt. As a result, the taunt can be aimed in any direction, including straight up or down. Showdown is the only other taunt that functions this way.
