Revision as of 15:26, 30 August 2022

This article is about the taunt item. For the video, see Meet the Medic.
Whatever the occasion, celebrate it with the Meet the Medic, a custom taunt that allows you to punctuate anything you do, no matter how trivial, with god rays, orchestral swells and an explosion of doves.
Meet the Medic publicity blurb

The Meet the Medic is a special taunt for the Medic.

When the player activates it through the taunts menu, the Medic takes a heroic pose with his secondary weapon as a bright light and doves surround him to the tune of an angelic choir, similar to several shots in the Meet the Medic video, notably the closing shot of the Medic atop a pile of Soldier corpses.
