— The Demoman
|
” |
Upon taunting with the Eyelander or Half-Zatoichi equipped, the Demoman brings his sword up in one hand, twirls it, and then slashes horizontally at neck level, before cleaning the blade with his fingers. The swing of the sword will decapitate any enemy slow, unaware or simply unfortunate enough to be within range.
Killing a player with this taunt adds to the Eyelander's head count but does not contribute towards any achievements regarding Eyelander kills.
As with all kill taunts, this taunt can be used to kill enemy players during humiliation and stalemates.

Update history
- Fixed a server crash caused by the Demoman taunt kill.
Bugs
- Kills made by taunting with the Half-Zatoichi do not give the Demoman full health, nor allow him to switch weapons afterwards.
- The taunt will still decapitate if the target is standing directly on top or underneath of the Demoman.
- The achievement Scotch Tap specifically mentions the Eyelander being used, even though it is achievable with the Half-Zatoichi.
Trivia
- There is an unused "decapitated" model located in the game files which depicts a clean cut neck, located in the Soldier directory. There are also six unused decapitation models in a folder named "decapitation" with a Demoman, heavy, and Pyro cut in half, with each half having it's own model. They even have working animations.
- Though the Horseless Headless Horsemann's Headtaker functions exactly the same as the Eyelander in every other aspect, it is unable to perform the decapitation taunt.
