A Headshot is a successful attack to the head of an enemy with a scoped shot from the Sniper Rifle, Bazaar Bargain, Machina, Hitman's Heatmaker, AWPer Hand, and Shooting Star, as well as a fully charged shot from the Classic (scoped or otherwise). A Huntsman/Fortified Compound arrow or an Ambassador bullet can also deal headshots. Headshots deal guaranteed Critical hits; unless a damage reducing effect is active, a fully charged headshot from the Sniper Rifle will instantly kill any class, including an overhealed Heavy. The hitbox for the head of any class will always remain centered on the Y axis of rotation, no matter what the onscreen appearance may dictate.

Killing an enemy with a headshot yields an extra half point, for a total of 1.5 points per headshot kill. Scoring a lethal headshot with a Huntsman arrow yields an additional half point, for a total of 2 points.

Update history

October 2, 2007 Patch

  • Fixed headshots not always registering for crouched players.

December 17, 2009 Patch (WAR! Update)

  • Added headshot death animations.

Trivia

  • There is a 25% chance that a player killed by a headshot will enter a special death animation appropriate to that class (for example, the Pyro does a backflip).
    • Any sword or axe for the Demoman and Half-Zatoichi for the Soldier will also have a 25% chance for the player killed enter the special death animation, since these weapons also remove the enemy's head after a successful kill.
