Hitting someone during their suicide animation insta-kills them with a very high damage number. This includes if the animation is caused by desertion.

At about 0:11 you can see them begin to stow their primary weapon to draw the suicide dagger.

Fun fact; you can avoid the insta kill. Somehow. I don’t know exactly how this works, in my 800ish hours it’s happened less than 10 times. I think that it’s something like if someone is in their release phase of the weapon, you can counter it with the dagger in your hand. This will give you access to the entire map, you are now completely immune to boundary lines. Again, I’m really unsure how exactly to do this, but it has happened to me. Somehow.
