Scout taunting with the Bat equipped.
What are taunts? They're character-specific animations you can trigger in-game to either announce that you've just shot someone or would like to be shot yourself.
TF2 Blog describing the taunts culture

Taunts are unique animations that can be performed by each class. Most weapons have their own dedicated taunt. In addition, there are special taunts that can be equipped in the loadout menu.

Taunts can be performed by pressing the taunt button (default keys: G on PC, Xbox Button X.png on Xbox 360, and PS Button Square.png on PS3), which perform the currently held weapon's taunt (if applicable). If at least one special taunt is equipped in a loadout slot, the taunt button instead brings up a list of all equipped taunts; pressing the numbers 1-8 performs the special taunt in that slot, while pressing the taunt button a second time performs the regular weapon taunt.

Taunts are generally to gloat after killing an opponent, to celebrate a victory, to provoke living opponents, or simply for comedic or playful effect, and for the most part have no direct effect on gameplay. However, a handful of taunts have special effects, such as providing healing, stunning opponents, or killing enemies outright. Taunts that can deal damage are generally known as "taunt kills".

During a taunt, the user is unable to move or attack, leaving them vulnerable until the taunt is concluded. The camera also switches to a third-person perspective. Taunts cannot be performed underwater or while airborne. The effects of knockback instantly cancel most taunts. All taunts, including taunt kills, can be successfully performed while stunned.

A minority of weapons, such as the Engineer's PDAs, the Sniper's Jarate, the Spy's Sapper, and most all-class melee weapons on Heavy, lack taunts. The Heavy's food and the Scout's drinks function as both a consumable item and a taunt when activated, moving the player into a third-person view and preventing them from moving or attacking.

The server-side command tf_allow_taunt_switch can allow players to switch weapons mid-taunt:

  • When set to 0, weapons cannot be switched during taunts. This is the value used for official matchmaking servers.
  • When set to 1, weapons can be switched at the very start of the taunt, but not during the majority of the animation. This results in a character performing the taunt for the weapon being used before pressing the taunt key, but holding the new weapon. This behavior was originally a glitch that was unintentionally "fixed" in the Mann-Conomy Update, and later made into a server-side option at community request.
  • When set to 2, weapons can be switched at any time during a taunt.

Taunts by class

Kill taunts

These taunts can deal 450 damage or more, and therefore have the potential to kill any opponent in a single hit (with the exception of Armageddon and Execution, which can only deal a maximum of 400 damage and thus are not powerful enough to kill a Heavy with maximum overheal. The Atomizer's Grand Slam is also incapable of doing this due to only dealing a maximum of 425 damage).

Special taunts

These taunts are equipped in the taunts section of the loadout menu.

Thriller taunt

The Heavy performing the Thriller taunt.

During Halloween events, if the server has Halloween mode turned on, or when playing on Ghost Town, all classes can do the Thriller taunt, which references a dance move from the song "Thriller" by Michael Jackson. The taunt has a 40% chance[1] to replace a weapon taunt (even for weapons that do not possess a taunt, such as Jarate and the Sapper), but does not replace kill taunts, ability taunts, or special taunts.

All classes perform this taunt slightly differently; for example, the Pyro stretches their fingers when looking to the sides, the Demoman looks straight forward without moving his head, and the Sniper lifts his feet up.

  • Most kill taunts are also reduced in damage by the Fists of Steel, allowing an overhealed Heavy, or one using the Dalokoh's Bar and having full health, to survive. Guitar Smash, Barbarian Swing, and Fencing are not reduced.
  • Occasionally, a player may reload their active weapon while taunting, in cases where the weapon automatically reloads (such as if auto-reload is enabled or if the weapon's clip is empty).
  • If the server variable tf_allow_taunt_switch is set to 1 or 2, the effects of lunchbox items are not applied to the player if they are activated by taunting, as the game automatically switches the player's weapons during the consumption animation instead of after the animation has completed. However, the item is considered "consumed" and the player must wait for it to recharge before using it again.
    • Using primary fire to consume such an item does not cause this to occur.
  • It is sometimes possible to perform a kill taunt while the player's model is facing the opposite direction. This can be done by quickly turning before performing a taunt; the player's model faces one direction, while the kill taunt's effects occur in a different direction.
  • If a taunt is done and the taunter is killed while performing it, the sounds and effects that are made may continue to play even if the player is dead.
  • If a player without the Conga taunt plays the taunt via another player into a wall, the player without the taunt continues to taunt until they are killed.
  • If a Sniper using the Huntsman taunts while stunned by another Huntsman, they can still use their taunt kill to defend themselves.
  • Occasionally, when a player taunts, the weapon that they are currently using appears in their character's hands.
  • Using the Carlton taunt for Scout during round startup causes the voice lines for the taunt to play indefinitely even after death, or switching off of a different class and then back to Scout. The only way to stop this is to leave the game, or stay playing as a different class for the rest of the match.
  • Some taunts may not align with their hitboxes. This can be easily seen with on the Balloonibouncer taunt.
  • If a Sniper does the Thriller taunt, they can get both the "Be Polite" and "The Last Wave" Sniper achievements at the same time, no matter what weapon they have equipped.
  • It is possible to get out of the stun from the Arrow Stab and Arm Blender kill taunts.

Unused content

  • There are two models for taunts in the game files that have no associated class or animation. One is red coffee mug with a "V for Victory" symbol on it, along with coffee inside the mug. The other is a serving platter with a skull inside of it, along with a towel under the bottom of the platter, suggesting it was to go over an arm.
  • VTF filename strings for several taunt props were located within the texture_preload_list.txt file when it was originally added to the game in Scream Fortress 2015:
    • materials/models/player/items/taunts/loot_crate/mannco_crate.vtf
    • materials/models/workshop/player/items/spy/taunt__au_revoir/ - Wasn't added, backpack icon made an appearance almost 2 years later in the Jungle Inferno Update leaks.
    • materials/models/workshop/player/items/spy/taunt_hoodoo_hex/ - Wasn't added, backpack icon made an appearance almost 2 years later in the Jungle Inferno Update leaks.
    • materials/models/workshop/player/items/spy/taunt_sant/ - Wasn't added, backpack icon made an appearance almost 2 years later in the Jungle Inferno Update leaks.
  • The Jungle Inferno Update added backpack icons for 6 Spy taunts that all went unused. Of these, Au Revoir, Hoodoo Hex, and Santé made reappearances after previously being found in the Scream Fortress 2015 texture preload leak.
  • The Smissmas 2020 update added an animation sequence, taunt_taunt_pyrosnowman, for the Cold Combustion taunt.

Trivia

  • If a player enables tf_allow_taunt_switch 2 on a server, then taunts with any Pyro weapon and switches to the Rainblower while taunting, the Pyro holds a bubble wand in their hand instead of the Rainblower itself. This is due to the Pyro holding a bubble wand during the Armageddon taunt, which is usually only visible in Pyroland.
