== Comics and Other Supplemental Material ==
* Near the end of the [http://www.teamfortress.com/loosecanon/12.html Engineer Comic.] Engi's been his usual friendly, quiet self up until he is physically threatened, at which point he calmly dishes out the largest amount of badassery yet seen in the canon, in a single sentence:
{{quote| '''Engineer:''' I appreciate that you're my employer, and an old man besides... but if you don't take your [[Precision F
** Made even more awesome in that the Engineer is being ''electrocuted'' when he's saying this.
* The Smissmas update brings us {{spoiler|1=[http://www.teamfortress.com/asmissmasstory/?p=8 BLU team vs Old Nick]}}.
Line 54:
* All three of the Pyro's taunt animations (raising the flamethrower over his head in homage to the Tuskan Raiders of [[Star Wars]], throwing a fireball in homage to [[Street Fighter]], and ''playing air guitar on a fire axe'').
** The fireball taunt can now ''kill'' opponents in one hit, with the trade-off that it's actually genuinely hard to reliably land a successful hit on someone in combat. Doing so in a proper match is in itself a Crowning Moment. The downside to this is that getting killed mid-taunt is rather embarrassing.
** The Pyro axe, [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Third_Degree Third Degree] actually has a [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/w/images/f/fc/Pyro_guitar_solo_no_verb.wav guitar riff] when the Pyro taunts with it, which makes it even more awesome. During Halloween and full moon nights, you can even do this while [[Rock Me, Asmodeus|dressed up like the devil.]]
** The Soldier's Taunt Kill is especially humiliating, as it can kill multiple targets in one hit.
** Landing a successful Taunt Kill with the Scout qualifies as this - it has the largest charge-up time, but a successful hit can send the target flying halfway across the map.
