I have new way to kill cowards. Click to listen — The Heavy

”

The Cow is a melee weapon for the Heavy. It appears as a two-dimensional wooden cutout of a Template:W with perpendicular planks to keep it upright.

Striking an enemy with the Cow will inflict bleeding and milk status for 12 seconds. However, when the Cow is the active weapon, the Heavy's movement speed is reduced by 20%. The swing speed and damage are identical to those of the Fists.

The Critical hit animation is an overhead swing with the flat side of the Cow. Should the critical hit connect with an enemy player, the Cow's head will shatter on impact, leaving a broken stump. This effect is similar to the Bottle and is purely cosmetic.
