HS Only servers restrict effective damage to headshots, keeping every engagement focused on first-shot accuracy, recoil control, and consistent crosshair placement. Depending on the configuration, the rule may apply to rifles, pistols, sniper rifles, or a limited weapon pool. Some servers combine it with Deathmatch for frequent respawns, while others use short rounds or compact practice maps. Before connecting, compare the current map, player count, player list, and available slots. A populated server provides more frequent engagements, but weapon restrictions and spawn rules determine whether the setup supports the skill you want to practise. Tags can reveal related formats such as Deathmatch, AIM, AWP, or 1v1. Use the listed IP for a direct connection, then confirm allowed weapons, respawn behaviour, damage rules, and stat tracking in the server description.
On HS Only servers, only headshots deal damage. The format is used to practise accuracy and develop the habit of keeping the crosshair at head level.
