| The '''Assassin''' medal ('''Assassination''' in ''[[Halo 4]]'' and ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'') is awarded for performing an [[assassination]] on an opponent from behind in ''[[Halo: Reach]]'', ''Halo 4'' and ''Halo 5: Guardians'' [[multiplayer]]. It is also awarded in [[campaign]] and [[Firefight]] in ''Halo: Reach'', and in [[Spartan Ops]] in ''Halo 4''. | | The [[Assassin Medal]] is awarded for meleeing an opponent from behind. It is availible in all [[Multiplayer]] gametypes and has a [[Bungie]] difficulty rating of 2 (out of 10). It is represented by a ninja face on a throwing star. After you kill an opponent by meleeing him in the back a message appears on your screen that says: "You assassinated (player)". |

| The Assassin medal is represented by a knife on a circle in front of a stylized X. In ''Halo: Reach'' the circle is red; in ''Halo 4'' it is blue. After the player kills an opponent by performing an [[assassination]] on an opponent from behind, a message appears on-screen that states: "''You assassinated (player's name)''."

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *Starting in ''Halo: Reach'' and in subsequent games, what was a "beat down" in ''Halo 3'' is now a "pummel." What was an assassination (or a melee in the back) is now a "beat down," and an "assassination" is now holding the melee button and going into third person for an intricate death.
| |
| *The ''Halo Reach'' achievement [[That's a Knife|That's A Knife]] is awarded when a player gains this medal in [[Campaign]], [[Firefight]], or [[Matchmaking]]. The phrase is a reference to the film Crocodile Dundee.
| |
| *Performing an Assassination on an Elite to survive a fall that would've been fatal in the ''Halo: Reach'' campaign unlocks the [[If They Came to Hear Me Beg]] achievement.
| |
| *Performing an Assassination on a player that has just exited [[Armor Lock]] in a ''Halo: Reach'' multiplayer matchmaking game on a [[Defiant Map Pack|Defiant map]] unlocks the [[Paper Beats Rock]] achievement.
| |
| *Assassinating a [[Promethean Knight]] in ''Halo 4'' [[Spartan Ops]] will unlock the [[Knight in White Assassination]] achievement.
