The animation is great but it kinda falls apart in any logical sense or usage case?

What kinda prank is putting Pyro's head in his suit? How does he not notice this way earlier? The head is also way too big to just not notice inside your suit, its the size of his torso. That and a decapitated head would bleed causing a pretty noticeable feeling. It's just a bit too random and lacking any real reasoning.

A taunt where Spy breaks his refined character due to something like this is good, but it should be explored differently. Maybe someone could throw the head to him from off screen? Maybe he reaches in his suit and spills his cigarettes all over himself? The decapitated head just isn't doing it nor making sense in any regard to a prank or Spy's suit or a taunt.

In gameplay, Spy has no way of decapitating Pyro nor getting a kill that relates to decapitating Pyro, also randomly finding a pyro head in his suit isn't going to really enrage enemy players on death or intrigue teammates.

It doesn't need to be a "taunt" to be in the game. It's creative, it's funny, and it's well made. Good work.
trench foot 9 May @ 3:57pm 
the animation is amazing !
Mike Habbages 26 Mar @ 5:05pm 
...why?
when would I ever use this in game?
Mr.Mapache 22 Mar @ 7:24pm 
If it was scout head instead
Mcfighter2 16 Mar @ 12:07am 
There is no point to this.
Why does Spy have a Pyro head in his suit? This doesn't feel clever at all.
Myahster 9 Mar @ 2:46pm 
I mean, he voices both characters
Toodle Stroodle 8 Mar @ 1:58pm 
yeah its funny but its not something I'd ever use.
MistaGaming 8 Mar @ 12:30pm 
well made, idk why spy would do this other then just "LOL RANDOMMM"
this doesnt even make sense
SimplyKat* | TF2 Nexus 5 Mar @ 6:49pm 
what situation will you even use this taunt?
dont get me wrong the animation is cool but like...
SolidCeph 5 Mar @ 10:59am 
this is such a stupid nonsense idea, i love it so much
Ted Beneke  [author] 4 Mar @ 11:14am 
so.... no head?
Dirty Harry enjoyer 4 Mar @ 11:00am 
is this supposed to be a trend now, when every merc now has their own nemesis' severed head?

no thanks/not interested
Nonmoth 3 Mar @ 3:19pm 
no.
Fortee plus tree 3 Mar @ 1:15pm 
How is this supposed to be a taunt?
"You see, he pulled out a pyro's head out of his suit instead of his disguise kit, get it?"
Great animation, but not a taunt.
No thanks / Not interested.
agin43 3 Mar @ 12:03pm 
hey valve make that a random head instead of just one:medicon:
Kat 3 Mar @ 10:20am 
oh.. thats gore of my comfort character </3
ALI=3NS 3 Mar @ 7:53am 
it could have been a rubber duck, a bomb, anything other than a head
Mbarthemuel Jollyiest II 1 Mar @ 8:14pm 
God damn do I absolutely love your taunts and animation work

But man is this an underwhelming promo image for how much work was put into the taunt
engine 1 Mar @ 6:16pm 
people are saying this isnt a taunt, it was gonna be a taunt but spy accidentally pulled out a severed head instead of whatever else he was gonna pull out
Typical 1 Mar @ 10:07am 
This does not feel like an taunt nor an "emote".
PainkoBreadCrumbs 28 Feb @ 9:38pm 
No. Enough said
Zeugziumy 28 Feb @ 4:00pm 
Hate to be that guy but, oh well, another severed head taunt...
def. 28 Feb @ 10:10am 
i dont get it
major francis fan 27 Feb @ 8:48pm 
fits more as a quick gag in an sfm
genuinely try and find a reason to use this
it cant be used to taunt another player, too long
doesnt have much in terms of comedy besides "haha he was shocked at the head"
feels like wasted effort really
Chantee Northfin 27 Feb @ 2:43pm 
clearly well made but the concept is very bland
Snackerman™ 27 Feb @ 2:40pm 
too out of context i dontget it :The_Slayer:
squiggler 27 Feb @ 11:39am 
The animation work is great, but... It's not really a taunt. It isn't even an emote, it's just a... thing that happens. Outside of the short promotional video, there's no real context to Spy having a Pyro head in his suit. I can't see a taunt like this being ever used in-game.
Scrangican 27 Feb @ 10:33am 
Bruh this is so messed up. Hilarious!
SynciNG 27 Feb @ 9:39am 
๋Foster 27 Feb @ 8:42am 
Not a taunt
stuntshock 27 Feb @ 6:47am 
its funny ig
JAS-C 27 Feb @ 1:07am 
And yeah, Pyro head model itself is pretty good quality.
JAS-C 27 Feb @ 1:06am 
It's funny, but like... What it gives to the game? It's not even so hated Emote, that provide some amusing social interaction, it just... thing. Good in SFM, not good in actual game.
GoEatATowel 26 Feb @ 9:43pm 
Why not have it be pictures of scouts mom? And then looking around and hiding them.
Brown Brickler 26 Feb @ 8:50pm 
whats with the "merc pulls random object from nowhere" taunts, i feel like the objects are not needed.
guyfailure gaycel 26 Feb @ 6:26pm 
i'm not gonna sugarcoat it
no thanks/not interested
Zumo Nacho INC 26 Feb @ 4:09pm 
Ehhhh not my cup of tea tbh. Great animation tho.
forter_ 26 Feb @ 3:10pm 
what?
pink puppet plapper 26 Feb @ 2:06pm 
Funny concept
Beesar 26 Feb @ 2:01pm 
Just why a severed head in the first place? If you would've made spy pull out a picture of scout's mom then sure, it could work as an emote and even a taunt against scouts but this can't work as a taunt and it just doesn't make sense as an emote neither. A drawing of spy getting hit by a car is what you should've made instead if you wanted a prank from scout. But if you wanted to scare spy with a pyro's face because he hard counters him, why not put something that could actually fit in his pocket? Like why not just pyro's mask? It would make more sense than an entire severed head stuffed in his coat and it not making even a slight hump.
...and how could't he feel that he has a whole head in his pocket you know?
Smokull 26 Feb @ 1:12pm 
It's funny but as a taunt I don't see it as good
Hypo 26 Feb @ 12:51pm 
@Myst they disappear automatically once the animation is complete. So it's a matter of whether or not you prefer them sinking in the ground or just disappearing. Either way that's just a nitpick.
AndyO's™ 26 Feb @ 12:35pm 
Lovely
Myst 26 Feb @ 12:25pm 
so props not dissapearing in taunts is now a new tradition for taunts now?
