Archimedes is a miscellaneous item for the Medic. It is the Medic's pet white dove splattered in blood, as seen in Meet the Medic, sitting on the Medic's shoulder. The BLU version of Archimedes does not have blood splattered on his body. His eyes and beak are connected with Medic's facial animations, allowing him to mimic the Medic's expressions.
When players equipped with Archimedes kill an enemy unassisted by another player, everyone in Pyroland will see in the killfeed that Archimedes gets the kill and the player wearing the item gets the assist.
This item is awarded in genuine quality to those who purchase the real life version from the Valve store.
