'''Oddball Kill''' is a medal awarded and achieved in [[Halo 3]] and [[Halo Reach]] [[Multiplayer]] for ''killing somebody while carrying an Oddball''. It is represented by a white eight-pointed star with a red skull in the middle. As ball carriers cannot fire weapons, use grenades or any other type of weapon, they are melee and beat down kills. While holding the oddball, your hits will be more powerful, needing only one hit to kill an opponent.
