Rock, Paper, Scissors is a two-player taunt. Similar to the High Five! taunt, when the initiator presses the action button, their character will enter a pose inviting someone else to join. Once another player accepts the challenge, the two face off in a rock-paper-scissors match. The choice of throw is randomly selected and does not allow ties. Once the throws are played, icons appear showing what the throws are, the winner's icon appearing with a bright outline around it, while the loser's does not. Afterwards the two participants react accordingly by using a mini-taunt, a winning and a losing one.

Should two players of opposite teams face off with this taunt, the loser will be killed by exploding, which is recorded as a taunt kill delivered from the winner's currently equipped weapon. The loser won't be killed if he is under the effects of ÜberCharge or Bonk! Atomic Punch during the taunt winner decision. Additionally, the loser won't be killed if the winner is killed before the taunt ends.
