Draft articleThis CS2 explanation is being researched and checked for version scope, source length and links.

Item profile

The Medi-Shot, also called the Health Shot, is an auto-injecting recovery item. The Wiki describes its general effect as restoring 50 health over two seconds. CS2’s equipment overview lists it for Deathmatch only, not as a normal purchase in Premier or Competitive.

Deathmatch use

The source describes a Deathmatch rule in which a three-kill streak grants one Medi-Shot and only one can be carried. This grant detail is not dated to a CS2 change, so it may be updated. Recovery is useful between fast respawn engagements; it is separate from armor and utility in an objective buy. See Deathmatch, Inventory and Buy Menu.

Healthshot animation update (June 29, 2023)

The June 29, 2023 Counter-Strike 2 Limited Test update improved Healthshot animations. It names an animation polish but does not specify which frames or actions changed; no healing amount, use time or equipment rule is implied by this visual update.
