The Civilian after capturing the intelligenceI knew Mr. Umbrella and I could pull it off!
The Umbrella is a melee weapon used by the Civilian. It is a folded team-colored umbrella, held upside-down with its handle facing the enemy.
It is identical to the Bat, except for its alternate fire ability, which grants 8 seconds of mini-crits to any teammate the user is looking at. It also allows giving mini-crits to the Medi Gun and Kritzkrieg, which increases their heal rate and ÜberCharge gain rate by 35%. Unlike with crits, boosting the Engineer increases Sentry Gun damage (the buff to the Sentry Gun will prematurely end if the Engineer dies). The charge meter refills after 15 seconds, is empty when respawning, and does not refill at resupply cabinets.

Strategy
As the Civilian is the most important class on his team (by definition, being the VIP), and the one which every single enemy wants to kill, aggressively charging at enemies will rapidly cause him to lose his life, and most likely the game. However, in the scenario where a low-health enemy (such as a Scout or Spy) gets too close to the Civilian, such as when contesting a point, he may freely charge at them and rack up some damage, which will surely be of help to his teammates trying to keep him alive.
