You should make a variant where they clap in a mocking way

[@hitlerhvh]

I love your mods omfg

I See this everywhere

[@user-hr5fh5rd5k]

why ıts look like a pe-

[@SpringBross]

Correct!

[@BoinglyThe3th]

The detail of having the classes with gloves on have a more muffled clap is gold

[@symon1033]

so...what about the metal arm?

I think Scout’s should be a bit more muffled

BRROOOOOOO

[@InspektorOfPixels]

A taunt that serves as an actual TAUNT, as the definition of the word goes if taken sarcastically, AND as a genuine cheer for someone who played well! This one must go in!

[@ohnowhy700]

Yes! This exactly! It can be used both genuinely and tauntingly, I can already imagine it- especially Spys and Snipers

[@SnipingIsAGoodJobMate]

Meh, wish it was a little more sarcastic to make it more obvious that they are indeed taunting you, we already have taunts like the high five, the fist bump, or even the "Nice job" voice command to congratulate your fellow team member

[@rawmaw]

YES

[@duckgooseyswan]

I could imagine the losing team just clapped during the victory phase, since they cannot use their weapons anyway.

[@MaskedColorzzzz]

So basically it can be used to be toxic or to cheer someone for doing good

[@rockhunk22]

i love how genuinely excited medic looks, its as if he hasn't seen his teammate do anything substantial for months before this lol

[@DespOIcito]

average medic main experience

[@MK-gb7ht]

He is the support class after all.

[@recklessabandon5678]

Well, that's just part of playing medic

[@scooterfish404]

he literally had to take his glasses off to make sure he wasnt seeing things

[@Mafferman]

Medic realizing the sniper on his team isn't a bot, he's just really good

[@mr.silver1614]

I can see this taunt pissing me off if it's used as an actual taunt.

[@livenishikireaction]

YOU'RE DOIN GOOD LAD

[@Gravity_studioss]

I can see a taunt about pissing

[@Turtleboilol]

I mean it’s kind of a wholesome taunt.
You’re basically saying to the enemy you just killed that “Hey, you’re doing good, keep up the effort, you might get me next time!”

[@mr.silver1614]

@Turtleboilol Yes, but it can also be used in a condescending way. It's kind of like how some players press Z + 2 to say, "Thanks!" after killing me. Like, don't say thanks to me bitch, I hope your family has a nice Christmas!

[@MACKYBOY-41]

@@Turtleboilol I mean good for you if that's how you interpret it but I don't think anyone myself included would share the sentiment lol.

[@gneu1527]

I like this as it has many meanings.
1. complementing the other player
2. taunting as in "get clapped"
3. being happy that you got a cool kill.
Or all at once.

[@charjrperalta1658]

Or if the enemy did something cool but then died either way and you wished they would've survived

[@kristonthesecond751]

or if your clapping someone's chee-

[@powdereyes2210]

Or a slow clap if you interrupt the voice line

[@GleebieDeebie]

0:19 whenever a taunt like this comes out I always cross my fingers and hope that they pull Pyro off correctly, I would say you did the little goober justice!

[@logannottheonefrommarvel9917]

This is like when characters that lose at Smash are forced to clap for the winner

[@Halberds8122]

I wish TF2 was in smash

[@denifnaf5874]

0:25 blue demo is a little too excited...

[@average-art3222]

Pfff 😂 wow, that's just wow

[@Therealmale_07]

2 taunts in a day? That's a world record

[@sbalazstibor]

THOSE CLAP SFX!!!!
You can hear how each class wears gloves or not!
Amazing detail! I love it!

dude why i read those clap s x

[@doofyus4756]

I'd like the addition of this taunt not only because its cool but because its like the mercs clapping for valve after they actually fixed the game 🤣

[@JansonisDEAD]

Expectation: use it when someone did a major accomplishment.
Reality: you died in the funniest way possible

I can defintely see people using this when their F2P teammate manages to kill someone.

[@SammyYasopp]

Shinji having a mental breakdown:

[@cspcchcody]

I gonna say the exact same thing, those clapping are terrifyingly uncanny

[@seronymus]

CONGRATULATIONS!

[@SomeKayn231]

Taunting from behind gonna go crazy

[@cheesecake_luvr]

Pyro being a cutie patootie as usual 😊

[@icetide9411]

This has managed to turn "gg" into a taunt, and I love that

[@DAVETHEBREADWIZARD]

I love how engineers clap is muffled

[@justarandomhumann]

And Sniper's

[@VeryRGOTI]

And Spy's

[@BluZombie]

I like how this and its predecessor the Condescending Clap both have Demoman do a quick cheery clap and then a thumbs up, with barely any difference between them

[@averageplayer1928]

Honestly this would make the whole emotion taunt trilogy complete

[@DARKANDGRIDDY1984]

Its basically a quintology now

[@confidentielalexandre5572]

I like how engie just clap his metal hand with the other and not the 2 together, i also like how medic take off his glasses like HUH ?!

[@eggsalad6089]

Heavy slow clapping just fits so beautifully well I love it

[@Jacksonuniverse421]

HEY MAN ILL GIVE THIS TAUNT A 100/10

[@LightsJusticeZ]

I like this. I do wish there was a version with sarcastic clapping with each merc having a smug smile on their face as they clap. Truly would be taunt pose for deathcams.

[@TavishFinneganDeGoon]

i edged hard to this

[@Team-Fortress-Engineer]

I don't even know what to say anymore..

[@thespookiestboy]

Demo no...

[@Gravity_studioss]

Crazy how something this simple was not put into the game yet,

[@instoppableforce4749]

good job could use mouth animations to make it more interactive definetly rooting for valve adding this

[@vivious_]

the mouth movements are done in game, the animations dont have them

[@MJS2389]

Hopefully Valve adds this so we can have a sarcastic and genuine clapping taunt in one

[@Mylophone]

Amazing attention to detail, every character has their own clapping animation with fits their personality, vavle better hire you!

[@SiBi2304]

That demo :D his smile on his face looks so damm cute :D

[@Originally_catchy]

I think I saw a similar taunt once but instead it was a sarcastic clap, but anyways, nice job as always 👍

[@gigiobigio0002]

I see three uses for this
1) clap at the enemies after losing because they played well
2) clap at the enemies after winning because they still did good
3) getting clapped on at a kill cam after the worst play of your life

[@TheG_Boy]

This is something i could absolutely see be used often in game lobbies

[@yakystamkanal1177]

This is gonna blow up eventually.

[@Sketchy3032]

Maybe it's just me, but I love how both genuine and sarcastic these are at the same time
Not only you can use it as an actual expression of praise, but also the sickest silent burn you could give to someone

[@FlipZFox]

Gosh, I really like the concept of this taunt. One one hand, this taunt can be used for a more genuine wholesome emote towards teammates, where you are actually giving them a good clap or other friendly reactions. On the other hand, you can start boiling the blood pressure of your enemies by using this taunt after a kill. It's a great middle road and a settles both very nicely. Not to mention the way each class claps is definitely fitting of their character. This really deserves a place in the game for sure!

[@Lacheln-YO]

this can have two different (and polar opposite) effects, depending on how and when you use it
(the amount of funny moments this taunt can generate will be enough to last a generation)

[@Ikesgurl123]

Spy's seems sooooo sarcastic I love it haha

[@dynamite_animator]

This would literally be perfect BM, please add this, volvo

[@Kaybeeguy]

I can imagine the demoman one being sped up and being used on gifs

[@unclemanbun]

i very much would get this taunt over the usual driving or musical taunt, very nice!

[@15braincellsremaining]

I like how all of them have a layer of sarcasm except pyro

this is awesome because it can be used to encourage your teammates or seriously piss off your opponents

[@Traeluegg-jn5px]

This is good for encouraging newbies to learning the game mechanic. Wholesome at the best

[@willcubemakes]

If this gets added, it will be one of the taunts EVERYONE will have

I can already see me raging after seeing this taunt in the freezecam
Therefore I want it in the game

[@saxeladude]

I love this! The animators being congratualted by the project upon completion.

Finally! A taunt we can use to commend people on their good work in matches!

I loved this, hope valve add

[@maximecyr9926]

This has potential to be super nice or super devastating, is perfect

[@ratte6090]

the thumbs up at the end of Demo’s is PERFECT :D

[@zombiegordonf9320]

Oh my, this is quite humorous. Huzzah!

[@TheKoriKasai]

I love how the mercs with gloves have a more mudfled sound, so accurate

[@yazidefirenze]

This is so good for an actual taunt as well.

[@reeceulf]

This is. Excellent! By all accounts!

[@ThisAwesomeMT]

2 things that would be cool
Mouth animation
A unique sound if engi has the gunslinger equipped

[@maerk9494]

Perfect taunt to use while a reflected crit rocket is being hurled straight at you

[@AssassinIronMan]

I’ve wanted a taunt like this for a while now

[@alex.g7317]

A sarcastic clap would fit spy like a glove

I'm surprised no one came up with this sooner

You already know what people will use this for.

[@damnedtosuffer666]

YOU'RE DOING GOOD LAD

[@jamesverner9132]

I'm honestly feeling very appreciated by the mercs

[@nataliaborys1554]

Imagine using that after someone ambushes you, yet you still win the fight.

[@victoriadelabarredasanchez785]

0:01 I love how medic says “vhat!?” And then they start clapping

[@MAKSUDTAGHIYEV]

YEEEEES
THANK YOU
I KNEW IT WAS JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE SOMEONE MADE A RESPECTFUL TAUNT(how ironic) IN FORM OF CLAPPING

[@Goofymoai]

The entire team after I gave the Uber to a f2p spy:

[@sevrengrey3689]

I want this taunt just for the demoman's version. i love his "you're doin good lad". the rest is a bonus.

[@cloke3076]

It is so simple, yet so genius.

[@imthecoolestguyalive]

I like how Soldier wipes a tear from his eyes! But also- Demo's comes off as so passive-aggressive, even though it's probably just him trying to be encouraging. Funnee.

[@aaalicethegoat]

Finally, a new contender for the taunt I should use at the end of a successful MVM game.

[@Kerfolian]

Setry as always, making good taunts

[@jhunt7235]

A force of good and evil, this taunt shall be.

[@loudrager237]

Oh shit that remember me a meme,3 guys and one in a chair,3 clapping their hand and one drinking,we can make it with spy if valve adds it.

[@talhaselimakar4668]

Demo's Face is Best

[@SiBi2304]

:D

[@TuMadre8000]

this has a lot of sarcastic potential

[@Myahster]

This is much better than the original.
I'm glad Demo's was mostly unchanged.

[@idcgaming518]

Honestly, if a soldier claps at me, I might just cry. Rick may , ladies and gentlemen. Inspiring people post-mortem.

[@StillIntoBeetles]

I am going to set this to my alarm clock so I can have the mercs tell me they're proud of me every morning
