[Team Fortress 2] Heavy Update!

[Doctor Manhattan]

The unlockable for the Heaviest pugilists out there is the K.G.B. Any time a Heavy kills an enemy with the K.G.B he receives five seconds of guaranteed critical hits. This crit-boost can be used to punch and kill further enemies, extending the boost time. Alternatively, the Heavy can switch to another weapon and use the boost to take out an enemy at range. The Heavy's slow movement speed, and the K.G.B's slower swing speed, make it a risky prospect.

The Heavy's second unlockable, Natascha, slows enemies with her bullets. Anyone damaged by her will move slower for an instant, encouraging them to find cover or turn and face the Heavy, mano-a-tiny-itty-bitty-mano. Unfortunately, Natascha is slightly weaker than Sasha, so she takes longer to finish off a victim. As a result, Natascha's great against fleeing cowards, such as Scouts & Medics, and less great against anyone actively trying to kill her master. Heavies that like to jump around corners and surprise groups of startled enemy crybabies will also find her very useful, although they should look for a Sasha-wielding enemy Heavy before they leap.

Looks like the heavy is the next class to be updated! The official heavy page, which was just launched, can be found at Team Fortress 2 - A Heavy Update

The update was confirmed a while ago.
Good to see some new info on it.

Shotgun replacement is going to be a lunchbox with a sandwich in it, sandwich heals for 100hp to make the Heavy capable of sustaining himself without a Medic. Chances are there some drawbacks to it, but we don't know what yet, whether there is a long eating animation, how few sandwiches are alloted per life, or perhaps there are multiple but there is a cool-down time between when you can eat another sandwich, etc.
