The Heavy to his sparring partner

Update history

September 30, 2010 Patch (Mann-Conomy Update)

  • The Pugilist's Protector was added to the game.

October 6, 2010 Patch

  • Paint affects the Pugilist's Protector's color more, colors are less washed out.

December 2, 2010 Patch #1

  • The Pugilist's Protector's painting texture was improved.

February 28, 2011 Patch

  • [Undocumented] The Pugilist's Protector was added to the Mann Co. Store.

Notes

  • The Pugilist's Protector is worn by Heavyweight Champ (Type 1) in Mann vs. Machine.
  • Due to how the materials are set up, the textures for the Pugilist's Protector change when running TF2 below dxlevel 90 (such as dxlevel 80). This is due Paint Cans originally not working under dxlevel 90 when they were first introduced during the Mann-Conomy Update. The Hatless Update updated the paint system to work on dxlevel 80, removing nearly all instances of _dx8 on each item's materials, with the exception of the Pugilist's Protector.

Due to how the textures are set up, if the game is launched with a dxlevel below 90, the Pugilist's Protector's single color Paint Cans look different compared to when running on dxlevel 90 or above. The colorization will also changes between teams.

Trivia

  • The mouth-guard is similar to those worn by boxers, also known as pugilists, to prevent damage to the mouth, teeth, and jaw, as well as to reduce the risk of concussion caused by direct blows to the head.
