Each class has its own series of taunts. These can be performed using Default key: G for PC, "X" for Xbox 360 and "Square" for PS3, with most weapons possessing their own unique animation and dialog line(s), though some taunts may be shared between similar weapons. Several lines of dialog are chosen at semi-random during a taunt, with one line being chosen at random and every line after it following a specific order. Taunts are generally used for gloating purposes after killing an opponent, to celebrate a victory, provoke living opponents or simply for comedic effect and for the most part have no direct effect on gameplay. However, certain taunts (known as Taunt Attacks) have effects such as healing the player and stunning, damaging or even killing opponents. Several achievements also require the use of taunts. Caution should be exercised when performing a taunt; while a player performs a taunt, they are left vulnerable and the view shifts from first to third-person, leaving the player unable to act until the taunt is concluded (though Demomen are able to activate their sticky bombs while taunting).
You cannot taunt underwater or while airborne. Being sent airborne while in the middle of a taunt (By a Pyro's airblast, for instance) will cancel the taunt. Being shot by Natascha will also cancel any taunt. In addition, the Scotsman's Skullcutter, the Engineer's PDAs, Jarate, and the Electro Sapper all lack taunts. The Heavy's Sandvich and Scout's Bonk! Atomic Punch function both as a consumable and a taunt when activated, moving the player into third person view.
Note that it is possible to switch weapons with quick-switch (Default "Q") after pressing the key to taunt but before the taunt animation actually plays. This will result in your character performing the taunt for the weapon you had before pressing the taunt key but holding the weapon that you switched to.

Thriller Taunt
During the Haunted Halloween Special event, an extra taunt is added for all classes referencing a dance move from the hit song Thriller by Michael Jackson. The taunt will play at random upon hitting the taunt button and will always activate if a player taunts with an item that possesses no taunt animation (e.g. Jarate). It is only available during the annual Halloween event. However, there are hidden NPCs on Thunder Mountain that can do the Thriller taunt year-round.
Notes:
- the Sniper has a slightly different animation than the others
Special Taunts
Also known as kill taunts (with the exception of the Medic's Oktoberfest), these taunts have to ability to kill any opponent in a single hit, as they do 500+ damage.
