How to detect if a player kills another player?

Hello. I am trying to detect if a player kills another player in a script. Once I know they have gotten a kill, it will increase a NumberValue.

Hello! I actually have no idea, but luckily a while back Roblox created a KOs and WOs leaderboard, so you can use that.

Sorry for no real answer, but I'm sure someone else can comment. Please don't accept this as the answer, as it isn't deserving of that. Here is the link to the model.

You'll probably have to check if Humanoid.Health == 0 after damage is dealt in the script you use to deal damage

You can tag a player when they're damaged by a tool. Let's say you have a sword. When a player touches your sword, it will make an ObjectValue inside the humanoid and its Value is yourself, but we will make it destroy after two seconds by using Debris:AddItem().

When a player dies, it will check if there's an ObjectValue inside their humanoid. And if it does, it will give the points to its Value (or the player who killed them).

The Classic Sword already has the tag script and some might have it too. But if your tool doesn't have a tag script and/or you're creating your custom tool, you can put this script in your tool. (Normal Script inside a Tool)

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local Debris = game:GetService("Debris")

local tool = script.Parent
local handle = tool.Handle

function TagHumanoid(humanoid, player)
	local Creator_Tag = Instance.new("ObjectValue")
	Creator_Tag.Name = "creator"
	Creator_Tag.Value = player
	Debris:AddItem(Creator_Tag, 2)
	Creator_Tag.Parent = humanoid
end

handle.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	local character = tool.Parent
	local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(character)
	
	local hitChar = hit.Parent
	local hitPlr = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hitChar)
	
	if player and hitPlr then
		if hitChar ~= character then
			TagHumanoid(hitChar:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Humanoid"), player)
		end
	end
end

And this is the script to detect if a player kills another player. (Normal Script inside ServerScriptService.)

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
		local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Humanoid")
		
		humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
			local tag = humanoid:FindFirstChild("creator")
			local killer = tag.Value
			
			if tag and killer then
				if killer:IsA("Player") then
					-- increase a NumberValue
				end
			end
		end)
	end)
end)
