You have 2 variables with the same name; deaths and deaths. One of them is of type IntValue and the other one is a Datastore.

Renaming of the deaths variable should do the trick. I recommend that you rename the first deaths variable to something like

`1`	`local` `deathsDatastore` `=` `DataStoreService:GetDataStore("PlayerDeaths")`

and

1local deaths = Instance.new("IntValue")
2deaths.Name = "Accidents"
3deaths.Parent = leaderstats

You'll now need to change line 23 to

`1`	`return` `deathsDatastore:IncrementAsync(player.UserId,` `1)`
