'''Killstreak Kits''' are tool items that can transform a specific [[weapon]] into a Killstreak weapon. Completing an [[Operation Two Cities]] tour will automatically earn the player a Killstreak Kit, and possibly a [[Killstreak Kit Fabricator]]. These items will allow the player to craft even rarer Killstreak Kits, granting special effects to the weapon they are applied to.

Standard Killstreak Kits are the most common kind of killstreak kit that can be earned by completing the Two Cities Tour. When you complete the tour, you will be given a Killstreak Kit of a randomly selected weapon, which can be applied in the same way as a [[Strangifier]]. When you have a Killstreak weapon equipped, an HUD counter will be added displaying your current killstreak with any Killstreak weapons. Getting killed resets this counter.

Standard Killstreak Kits are the most common variety, and simply add a HUD kill counter. Unlocked after every tour of Two Cities, the Kit is applied similarly to as a small scale [[Strangifier]]; weapons it is applied to track kills, but instead of counting lifetime kills, Killstreaks measure frags in a single life. Applying Standard Kits comes at no additional cost, but can only be applied to a specific, pre-determined weapon. Killstreak Kits can be applied to Strange weapons to maintain two counters.

These function the same as Standard Killstreak Kits, but they also apply a colored Sheen to the weapon. This effect causes the weapon to glow from one end to the other occasionally.

Acting as the next level to Standard Kits, the Specialized Kits apply a colored shine to the weapon, and require specific ingredients to work.

Killstreak Kits are recipe items for specific weapons. Awarded upon completing a full Operation Two Cities tour, Killstreak Kits function similarly to Chemistry Sets; in exchange for specific ingredients, the Kit outputs a rare Killstreak variant.

After upgrading a weapon to Killstreak quality, a kill counter appears in the player's HUD, and resets only upon player death. Most notably, Killstreak weapons display unique features depending on the weapon's level and the amount of kills; whilst a level 1 weapon simply tracks kills, higher levels can add a colored sheen and can display unusual effects.

Standard Killstreak Kits

Standard Killstreak Kits are the most common variety, and simply add a HUD kill counter. Unlocked after every tour of Two Cities, the Kit is applied similarly to as a small scale Strangifier; weapons it is applied to track kills, but instead of counting lifetime kills, Killstreaks measure frags in a single life. Applying Standard Kits comes at no additional cost, but can only be applied to a specific, pre-determined weapon. Killstreak Kits can be applied to Strange weapons to maintain two counters.

Specialized Killstreak Kits

Specialized Killstreak Kit

Acting as the next level to Standard Kits, the Specialized Kits apply a colored shine to the weapon, and require specific ingredients to work. As a player's streak increases, the weapon's glow becomes more intense. In order to upgrade with a Specialized Kit, players require a Level 1 Killstreak weapon along with a random selection of loot; said loot is dropped after every completed Two Cities map (e.g. Battle-Worn Robot Money Furnace).

Below are the currently known colors:

  • Team Shine
  • Hot Rod
  • Manndarin
  • Deadly Daffodil
  • Mean Green
  • Agonizing Emerald
  • Villainous Violet

Professional Killstreak Kits

Professional Killstreak Kit

The final level of Killstreak weapons, Professional Kits are the rarest variation. Adding to the Specialized Kit's colored glow, Professional Kits add a particle effect to the player somewhat similarly to unusual cosmetics.

While the weapon is equipped and the player has a killstreak of at least five, the effect will become visible. This effect, similar to that of the Eyelander, will match the color of the weapon's glow, and will come from the player's eyes. The effect will become more intense when the killstreak passes 10 kills.

Below are the currently known Killstreaker effects:

  • Cerebral Discharge
  • Fire Horns
