The High Noon, also known as Showdown, is a kill taunt for the Heavy that can be performed with the Fists, Saxxy, Apoco-Fists, or Holiday Punch as the active weapon.
Upon taunting, the Heavy mimics a quick-draw pistol showdown, dealing 500 damage to any enemy slow, unaware, or merely unlucky enough to be in the way.
Unlike most taunt kills, the High Noon must be aimed manually; the taunt's invisible bullet fires in the direction the player was facing at the time. Because of this, it can be aimed in any direction, including straight up or down, and can miss even when the enemy is directly in front of the Heavy's "gun hand." However, this property also allows the taunt to hit enemies through even the smallest holes, such as between the missing boards of the center point in Badlands.
The range at which the taunt kills is 500 Hammer units (roughly 9.5 meters / 31.25 foot), past which it has no effect.
As with most kill taunts, this taunt can be used to kill enemy players during Humiliation and Stalemates.
