Team Fortress 2 – Using the Sandvich effectively

Obtaining the Sandvich

 
In order to obtain the Sandvich, you will be required to complete 10 Heavy exclusive achievements. You can easily find these achievements by selecting filters in TF2’s achievement page. After you have completed these 10 Heavy achievements, the Sandvich should appear in your inventory! 
 
Alternatively, you can purchase the Sandvich through Steam’s community market. 
 
 

Basic utilization of the Sandvich

 
Of course, to use the Sandvich, you’ll first need to equip it in Heavy’s secondary weapon slot. If you don’t know where that is, it should replace a shotgun. 
 
The Sandvich works in an interesting way. You can eat it, which will give you 300 health. This is Heavy’s default health so it will restore all your health regardless of how much health you have. 
 
 
 
Using alternate fire (right click), you can drop the Sandvich for a teammate. This will restore their health by 50%, which is the equivalent of a medium health kit. 
 
 
 
 

Strategies for the Sandvich that will actually benefit you and your team

 
1. Only use the Sandvich when you are below 150 HP. You don’t need to use it for anything above that. 
 
2. If you have a Medic healing you, using the Sandvich is a waste. Instead, find some teammates who need it. This can give your team an advantage with some extra HP from a delicious Sandvich. 
 
3. Medics are a great class to give Sandviches to. The Medic is a high priority class for your team, since he is a player’s primary source of healing. Drop the Medic a Sandvich and give them an extra chance at healing your team. 
 
4. Try to get to cover when attempting to use a Sandvich for self healing. Eating a Sandvich will take a few seconds and you don’t want to die because you ate a Sandvich in the middle of the battlefield. 
 
4.5. Don’t drop Sandviches in the middle of the open. You’re basically telling your teammates to risk their lives for a Sandvich. 
 
5. Sandviches can also heal the enemy. This is really bad for your team. Drop the Sandvich when there’s no ememies around.
