Do the Invasion weapons have killstreak kits?
With TF2's invasion update, they introduced four new reskins: Batsaber, Giger Counter, Shooting Star, and C.A.P.P.E.R. All of them function identically to existing weapons in the game, some with just slightly different particle effects.
Before investing in these reskins, I would like to make sure they can have killstreak kits applied to them.
- Are there killstreak kits specific to these reskins, similar to how there are Big Kill killstreak kits (reskin of Revolver)? or;
- Can the base weapon's killstreak kit be applied to the reskin, similar to how there are no Nostromo Napalmer killstreak kits (it uses the Flame Thrower killstreak kit)? For example, could I apply a Pistol killstreak kit to the C.A.P.P.E.R? or;
- Are there no killstreak kits applicable to invasion weapons at this time?
Best Answer
Having a quick look at the Community Market, it turns out you can use Specialised Killstreak kits on them. As of right now, there are two different Invasion weapons so far that have kits applied to them, those being the Giger Counter and Batsaber, proving that the weapons can have kits applied to them. The item descriptions even show that they have a visible sheen and active killstreaks.
It seems like the kits used on them may well be blank kits, which is proven by the fact that the Wrangler (the weapon that the Giger Counter is a reskin of) doesn't have any kits at all.

We don't really know for sure yet, but recent discussions suggest not. Blank killstreak kits can be used on the items.
