The '''Heavy''' is a [[Classes#Defensive|defensive class]]. The Heavy is the slowest class but has the highest HP, letting him stand up to a lot. With his [[Minigun]] he's able to deal sustained damage to enemies.
{{Quotation|'''The Heavy''' ''commenting on the enemies miniscule weaponry''|''You are going to need much bigger guns!''}}
 
The '''Heavy''' is a [[Classes#Defense|defensive class]] who hails from Russia. He is a large passionate man who loves his job and loves mowing down his enemies even more. As a [[Classes#Defense|defensive class]], the Heavy specializes in suppressive fire at medium to close range using his [[Minigun]] and is a powerhouse in his own right with the immense damage his weapon deals at closer range alongside his large health pool.
 
Having the slowest movement speed in the game and the highest health pool as well, the Heavy is a force to be reckoned with and exploited. These stats allow for the Heavy to be a dangerous force on the battlefield when his Minigun is fully revved up and firing. Paired with a [[Medic]], the Heavy becomes a large threat that is able to soak up loads of damage and deal back just as much. The Minigun itself boasts impressive damage output and many applicable situations to use it in. With all this power comes the cost of being the slowest moving class in the game, making it difficult for the Heavy to be timely with appearing in team fights and being able to be easily outmaneuvered by long range classes and other close-range classes.
 
Being one of the very few classes whose damage isn't mainly burst fire, but a sustained damage stream of bullets allows the Heavy to take part in more fights than most classes would be able to.
 
With all these impressive traits the Heavy possesses, he is a class who excels in multipurpose combat and suppression tactics in controlling the battlefield.
 
The Heavy is voiced by Gary Schwartz, who also voiced the [[Demoman]].
