Get the Law Of Lamontmug. In FPS games (specifically Counter Strike), a common saying and practice to give a player with low hp the AWP (Sniper Rifle) in order so that they can attempt to get a one shot kill without having to take a rifle battle which almost always would be dubious with such low hp. Named after a former semi-pro csgo player Bogdan.
Bogdan's Law can be easily nuanced in different situations and doesn't always apply to every low health situation. (Such as the low hp player taking the awp and swinging Catwalk on Dust II.)
