Crit-a-Cola (in full Bonk! Crit-a-Cola) is an unlockable secondary weapon for the Scout. While it sports a similar packaging to the Bonk! Atomic Punch, it appears as a purple soda can no matter what team the player is on.
When the drink is imbibed, it gives the Scout the ability to deal Mini-Crits for 6 seconds with any weapon equipped. However, Mini-Crits can also be inflicted against the Scout by any enemy during this duration. It influences the player to play in a prudent manner; the player must deal as much damage as possible while avoiding as much damage done to the Scout as possible.

Previous Changes
- The "Retire the Runner" achievement is reconfigured to apply to the weapon.
- The weapon now spills purple liquid when selected, as opposed to the green liquid of Bonk! Atomic Punch.
Trivia
- The name 'Crit-a-Cola' is a play on popular soft-drink brand name 'Coca-Cola'. The name also sounds like the word 'Critical' spoken with unusual emphasis.
- The Crit-a-Cola was designed and created one day before it was released.[1] Upon release, it and Bonk! Atomic Punch looked identical, including the liquid emitted from the item upon switching to it.
- 'Crit-a-Cola' appears to be another beverage which appears under the Bonk! brand-name, rather than a new product all its own.
- While Cherry Fission-flavored Bonk! proclaimed Now With Isotopes!, and Blutonium Berry-flavoured Bonk! assured us it contained 33% More Radiation!, Crit-a-Cola's label states Manliness Guaranteed!
- The lines said by a Scout while under the effects of Crit-a-Cola are the same as his Bonk! Atomic Punch lines, despite their obviously different functions.
- Similar to Bonk!, drinking a Crit-a-Cola with the Sandman results in a bug that removes the Scout's baseball. If the ball's recharge meter is full, the recharge meter goes to 0 as if the ball had been launched. However, the ball will return as normal after the recharge is complete.
