Team Fortress 2, released by Valve in 2007, remains one of the most quoted multiplayer shooters online, and its distinct character voices are a large part of that longevity. Pyro is the game's masked, flame-wielding class, while Medic is its healing support class, and clips pairing their voices are commonly shared on soundboards by players who recognise both characters instantly. Because the clip is under a second long, it works easily in edits, streams, and reaction videos, which has helped short TF2 sounds stay in circulation long after the game's original release.
