Here is a simple DeathBeam script I tried out:

Do note, though, that while this is currently in the Misc structure, it will be moved out once we decide how to move forward with the structure on the C++ side. For future updates, if any functionality is in Misc, it is there for an undetermined time until it gets moved out, but it will be moved out at some point. If you create a script that uses Misc, be sure to keep up-to-date, so you know when you need to modify your script.
Note also, that the script above takes advantage of more new functionality available to us as of the latest updates. You can now use Player.PlayerOfUserid(<userid>) to get a userid's IPlayerInfo instance, Player.EdictOfUserid(<userid>) to get a userid's entity edict, and Player.PlayerOfIndex(<index>) to get a player's IPlayerInfo from their index.
