The Demoman on his newfound ability to turn while charging

Ali Baba's Wee Booties are a set of primary weapons for the Demoman. They are a pair of steel pointed boots, worn similar to the Gunboats. They will be released with the Über Update.

They will replace the Grenade Launcher and will give the Demoman a +25 bonus to Health, as well as doubling turning control while charging, allowing the Demoman's charge to be maneuvered much easier.

Trivia

  • The increased turning control was originally an exploit with the Chargin' Targe before it was ultimately fixed.[1]
  • Ali Baba is a fictional character from the story "Ali Baba & the Forty Thieves", which is featured in the book "One Thousand and One Nights" whose name is the inspiration for the Demoman's One Thousand and One Demoknights pack.

  1. The exploit involved using an Xbox 360 controller in conjunction with the mouse, both forms of input were accepted and compounded into more significant turning control.
