			The '''AWP''' (Arctic Warfare Police) is the most iconic sniper rifle in Counter-Strike. A single body shot kills any opponent, but it costs $4,750 and only rewards $100 per kill.

	== Overview ==		== Overview ==
	~~Priced at $4,750, the~~ AWP is the ~~second most expensive weapon in the game. Its extreme power comes with significant drawbacks: a very slow rate of fire~~, ~~heavy movement penalty~~, ~~and high price that can strain the [[Economy System\|team economy]]~~. ~~Despite these limitations, the AWP is a game~~-~~changing weapon that can single-handedly control sightlines and win rounds~~.		The AWP is a bolt-action sniper rifle dealing 115 base damage — enough to one-shot kill to the chest, stomach, or head at any range. Only leg shots are non-lethal (but still deal ~85 damage). The scope provides two zoom levels.

	~~The AWP is unique in that it can kill any opponent with a single~~ shot to the ~~chest, stomach, or head, regardless of armor. Only leg shots require~~ a ~~follow~~-~~up. This one~~-~~shot~~-~~kill capability makes it~~ the most ~~feared~~ weapon in ~~Counter~~-~~Strike.~~		== Strategy ==
			* Hold angles and take the first shot — the bolt action leaves you vulnerable if you miss
			* Pairs well with a pistol for close-range backup
			* The $100 kill reward means you need kills just to sustain buying it
			* Quick-scoping is viable but risky
			* No-scoping is extremely inaccurate — only as a last resort
			* The AWP is the most impactful single weapon in competitive CS2
			* Teams typically run 1-2 AWPs maximum due to cost

	~~== Usage Tips ==~~		[[Category:Sniper_Rifles]]
	* The AWP is a one-shot kill to the chest, stomach, and head — only leg shots deal reduced damage.
	* Positioning is everything — hold long angles where the AWP's power shines and avoid close-quarters engagements.
	* The AWP has a 00 kill reward, the lowest of any weapon. This means AWPing is economically costly.
	* Quick-switching (pressing the weapon swap key after firing) can feel faster but does not actually improve the fire rate.
	* Use the AWP to hold angles and force enemies to use [[~~Utility Usage\|utility]] to clear your position.~~
	* Never peek aggressively with the AWP unless you have information — the slow fire rate makes missed shots extremely punishing.
	* On the [[Economy System\|economy]] side, losing an AWP is devastating. Consider saving the weapon when a round is clearly lost.

	~~== The AWPer Role ==~~
	~~In competitive Counter-Strike, one player on each team typically specializes as the dedicated AWPer. This role requires~~:
	* Exceptional positioning and game sense
	* Strong flick aim for reactive shots
	* Understanding of the [[Economy System]] to manage the high cost
	* Communication with teammates for information and utility support

	~~Famous AWPers have defined the history of Counter-Strike, making it one of the most prestigious roles in professional play.~~

	~~== Countering the AWP ==~~
	* Use smokes and flashes from the [[Utility Usage\|utility]] ~~toolkit to block or blind the AWPer.~~
	* Shoulder peek to bait the shot, then push during the bolt-action cycle.
	* Double peek with a teammate to overwhelm the AWPer with multiple targets.
	* Close the distance — the AWP is weakest in close-quarters combat.
