Screamin' Eagles! Click to listen — The Soldier's memories of how this hat was made

”

The Chieftain's Challenge is a community-created headwear item for the Soldier. It is a stereotypical Native American Template:W with team-colored Team Fortress 2 logos painted onto the wooden side buttons covering the Soldier's ears. It features broad white feathers with team-colored tips and bases, and a decorated band covering the Soldier's eyes.

Update history

February 28, 2011 Patch

Bugs

• The back feathers of the hat clip through the Soldier's back with some taunts, namely when taunting with the Shovel or Frying Pan.
• When Übercharged, the back of the hat becomes invisible.
• The hat slightly clips with Professor Speks, Deus Specs and Summer Shades

Trivia

• In some Template:W tribes, feathers were badges that were earned through deeds, whether it be for the good of the community or through battle. Those who had earned enough to make a full headdress were regarded with great honor.
• The hat's name in development was Screams with Eagles, a reference to one of the Soldier's taunt sound clips.
