The Dueling Mini-Game is an item that allows the player to challenge another player to a duel. This item is limited to 5 uses.
The item must be equipped in the Action Slot of the class the player is currently using. When activated (default H), the game will ask if the player wants to challenge someone on their friends list (needs to be playing TF2) or someone on the server they're currently on. A notification will pop up when the challenge is activated. The opponent must then choose to either accept or deny the challenge. If yes, the duel begins. If no, the item is refunded. If the player challenges someone on a server, everyone currently in the server will be notified. A player may only be in one duel at a time, but there may be multiple duels going on in a server at once.
If they accept, the duel begins. This item will not be consumed if the other player refuses the duel. At the end of the round, whoever has more duel points wins. Kills and assists against your opponent are worth 1 point.
This item will be refunded if the server changes level or the score is tied 0-0 at the end of the round.
The regular icon of the item contains an Ambassador from each team.

Gameplay
The goal is to obtain Duel Points by killing the opposing dueler. The player's opponent will have an icon above his head to identify him.
Whoever has more duel points by the end of the round wins (and obtains the Bronze Dueling Badge if they haven't already. The same goes for the loser). Alternatively, if one of the duelists leaves, his opponent wins. Using the 'retry' command to reconnect to the server is detected as leaving.
The Dueling Mini-Game is canceled if one of the users disconnect through lag, the server resets, or the map changes. If neither player kills or assists the other before the round ends, the player who initiated the duel is refunded his Dueling Mini-Game item.
Every time you level, you get a random item along with a single use "Dueling Mini-Game". These items are announced to the server as "%playername% has earned: %itemname%", rather then the usual "has found" template.
Cost
The Dueling Mini-Game item costs $0.99 USD, 0.99€ EUR, or £0.59 GBP, for 5 uses.
