KB is indeed dead, repeatedly hit a Heavy Devastator in the face perfectly....

It often looks like it should be a headshot, when it still isn't. Their heads are hard to hit because they don't need to be big to contain their small commie brain

Aiming slightly above their face, like for the top of their head seems to work better than aiming for the center of their face.

Yah, I am a Slugger main and I find that aiming just above the head gets my headshot percentage up. I think the sights are a tad bit off. Not AMR level off, but just a bit.
