Hudauda, huuudha!!! Click to listen — The Pyro while performing Hadouken

”

Upon taunting with the Shotgun or Flare Gun equipped, the Pyro winds his hands back, concentrating his inner fire energy before releasing it from his palms as a Hadouken (also referred to as a Hadoken), instantly killing and igniting any enemy slow, unaware, or simply unfortunate enough to be within range.

This taunt kill, as well as being lethal to enemies, will instantly destroy any buildings. This attack has a wide range of fire capable of killing multiple targets and destroying multiple buildings.

The Hadouken can be used to kill enemy players during Humiliation and Stalemates.
