'''ozfortress''' is the longest running and most popular competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' league in the Oceanic region. ozfortress supports [[Highlander]], [[6v6]] and [[Ultiduo]] seasonal competitions, as well as numerous offseason events. ozfortress is considered to host the highest level of competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' play in Oceania.

==History==
ozfortress was established in 2001 by TFC players {{flag|au}} ''mercury'' and {{flag|au}} ''tempest'' to cater for the competitive ''Team Fortress Classic'' community of Australia and New Zealand. ozfortress hosted a variety of TFC tournaments up until the early 2010s before official ozfortress support ended.

The ozfortress website was hosted on a standalone website for the majority of its lifetime until October of 2018, when it was announced that ongoing news posts would be issued on the organisations' Warzone page. In early 2020, the ozfortress forums went offline indefinitely, along with all information pertaining to competitions played before [[Ozfortress_Season_16|OZF 16]]. Currently, what was previously the ozfortress Warzone page has taken the domain name of the original ozfortress.com site and is the current home of ozfortress. Large portions of the old forums can be accessed through the [https://web.archive.org/web/20230000000000*/https://ozfortress.com Wayback Machine Archive].

==Major Leagues and Competitions==
===OZF: the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League===
'''2016 - Present''' 
====Overview====
[[File:OZF27.png|thumb|450px|Banner for ozfortress Sixes Season 27, played throughout early 2020.]]
Announced on the 24th February, 2016, the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is the successor to the organization's previous [[Ozfortress#OWL:_the_ozfortress_Winter_League|OWL tournaments]] that concluded with OWL 14 and were continued into OZF 15 and beyond. The tournament has been ran triannually since its inception and features five tiers: Premier, High, Intermediate, Main and Open. Main was introduced as a solution to [[Glossary#Sandbagging|sandbagging]] and to provide a middle ground between Open and Intermediate.

====Format====
The ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is most commonly run over a period of 10 weeks, the first seven being allocated to the regular season and the remaining weeks to playoffs. A pool of 9 maps is chosen prior to the seasons' launch. Premier, High and Intermediate are usually played in a round robin bracket, whilst Main and Open are run on the Swiss system. Throughout the regular season, two maps are chosen to be played by all teams each week. At the conclusion of the regular season, the top four teams of each division qualify for playoffs. Playoffs are run in a Bo3 format, with the three maps for each match being determined by a pick/ban system. The Premier grand final is a Bo5.

OZF playoffs use the Page Playoff system, in which the top two teams play each other(upper page playoffs) and the bottom two play each other(lower page playoffs). The winner of the upper page playoffs graduates to the grand final, whilst the loser plays the winner of the lower page playoffs in the semi-final. The winner of the semi-final then plays the winner of the upper page playoffs in the grand final.

ozfortress 6v6 makes use of [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_6v6_s36 a custom whitelist].

===OZHL: the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League===
'''2022 - Present''' 
====Overview====
The ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is a newer league designed for [[Highlander]] competition. OZHL functions much in the same way as OZF, but with a map pool, ruleset and weapon banlist suited to the Highlander gamemode. The league made its debut in mid 2022 after the [[Respawn League]] was dissolved into ozfortress. Staff previously overseeing RSL competitions were installed as ozfortress' new Highlander staff. Similarly, many teams such as [[red pandas]] and [[rascals]] that had formerly played in the Respawn League (and UGC) have since competed in OZHL.

Ozfortress has been predominantly a 6v6 platform for the vast majority of its lifetime. Previously, ozfortress hosted a now long-defunct ladder competition; the Ozfortress Highlander League (ozhl) which had its last title in 2014. This previous competition was run in much the same way as the late ozfl.

====Format====
As stated earlier, the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is run very similarly to the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League. The season is run over 8 weeks, with the first five allocated to the regular season and three for playoffs. OZHL uses [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_hl_s3 a less restrictive whitelist] than ozfortress Sixes.

Further information is available at the [https://docs.ozfortress.com/rules/highlander official ozfortress website].

==Minor Leagues and Competitions==
This section describes more casual or offseason events run by ozfortress.
===Ultiduo===
'''2007 - Present''' 
ozfortress [[Ultiduo]] is an annual single-elimination competition run during the offseason between ozfortress' seasonal premier competition - in the past the OWL league and currently the OZF league. For the majority of its lifetime, Ultiduo has been an open tournament run over either a period of a few days or a few hours. Most recently, (Ultiduo 17) the tournament has been run over 3 hours and 2 divisions.

The ozfortress Ultiduo competition is the oldest still-running ''Team Fortress 2'' competition in the Oceanic scene, having been played for over 16 years as of 2024, with its origins lying as far back as the 27th of December, 2007. <ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20071230221228/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25002 Wayback Machine Archive: SINISTAR and BOWT are crowned the 1st ozf Ultimate Duo!]</ref>

===MSNC: A Midsummer Night's Cup===
'''2017 - Present''' 
A Midsummer Night's Cup are a series of single-night [[6v6]] competitions that were run twice a summer from 2017 through to 2019. From 2020 however, MSNC have been run at irregular intervals with the recent addition of a MSNC [[Highlander]] league. Teams are split into three divisions - either Premier, Intermediate and Open or Divisions 1 through 3. The focus for these cups is to provide ozfortress players with a more casual laid-back experience in between seasons. Hence, many MSNC tournaments have seen looser team compositions and more extensive offclassing than the seasonal leagues.

==Previous Leagues and Competitions==
This section covers currently inactive ozfortress leagues or competitions. This includes those that have been formally concluded and those that may return in future years.

===ozfl: the ozfortress league===
'''2008 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress league was a continuous 6v6 ladder competition open to teams of all skill levels. Match scheduling was determined by a team's win/loss streak, which provided them with the opportunity to face opponents at other skill levels, or opponents they would otherwise never meet in regular scrimmage. This league was seen as a proving ground for new maps designed for the competitive community, and was paired with a less restrictive whitelist. ozfl was largely regarded as a pathway into ozfortress' previous premier competition, the ozfortress winter league (OWL) series.

The ozfortress league was the longest running Team Fortress competition in the Oceanic scene, with its origins lying as far back as November 2002 with ''Team Fortress Classic''.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20021206100839/http://ozfl.ozfortress.com/ Wayback Machine Archive: OZFL - Season 1 commenced!]</ref> The first signups for the ''Team Fortress 2'' edition of the ozfortress league were announced on the 7th of May 2008 and began with an 8v8 format with random critical hits.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080621190542/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=26403 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress Team Fortress 2 League]</ref> The second round of matches saw a new 6v6 format being run alongside 8v8 and random crits disabled, before 8v8 was phased out entirely in March of the following year.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20090316070728/http://ozfortress.com:80/ Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress says good-bye to 8v8]</ref>

The ozfortress league ran a total of 127 rounds of ''Team Fortress 2'' matches spanning nearly 7 years, with the final game being played on the 20th of March, 2015. [[Team Immunity]] accounted for 55 of the titles won, thus winning over 40% of ozfortress league titles.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20190109053433/http://www.ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=28089 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress league title history]</ref>

===ozfc: the ozfortress cup===
'''2008 - 2013''' 
The ozfortress cup was a double elimination exhibition competition. The cup had 16 slots, 12 of which were occupied by the top 12 teams of the year. The remaining 4 slots were claimed as eight 'wildcards' who competed with each other in a qualifier format.

The ozfortress cup was the first non-Ultiduo ozfortress ''Team Fortress 2'' competition to be run. The first OZFC began on the 10th of January, 2008 in an 8v8 format.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080118012240/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25201 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfc1 - draw and points]</ref>

===OWL: the ozfortress Winter League===
[[File:Owl 14.png|thumb|600px|The banner for the final OWL season before the transfer to OZF. OWL 14 came to a close in September of 2015.]]
'''2009 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress winter league was the initial premier competition series run by ozfortress. It was a seasonal, round-robin [[6v6]] invitational that ran approximately twice a year. Teams were split into skill based divisions, from Division 1 or Premier down to Division 6. However, the number of divisions often varied between seasons depending on the number of teams registered. A typical competition ran over 10 weeks of matches and teams were invited to apply for selection before the competition began.

OWL was later phased out in favour of the ozfortress seasonal league following OWL 14 in early 2016. Recently however, the ozfortress Winter League has made a comeback in the form of OWL 2021, running alongside the existing OZF seasonal league.

===C4C: Capping for a Cause===
'''2010 - ~2012-13''' 
Capping for a Cause (stylised as '''Capping 4 a Cause''', or '''C4C''') was a 16 team open double-elimination competition run three times from 2010 to 2012. C4C aimed to raise funds for a named charity. Teams were asked to 'buy' their seeding by donating to the charity, where the highest seeds were given to the highest donating teams, providing them with a scheduling advantage throughout the tournament. Over the three iterations of C4C, over $22,000 AUD was raised for charities. These included the Australian Cancer Research Foundation, BeyondBlue and the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.

'''ozfortress''' is the longest running and most popular competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' league in the Oceanic region. ozfortress supports [[Highlander]], [[6v6]] and [[Ultiduo]] seasonal competitions, as well as numerous offseason events. ozfortress is considered to host the highest level of competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' play in Oceania.

==History==
ozfortress was established in 2001 by TFC players {{flag|au}} ''mercury'' and {{flag|au}} ''tempest'' to cater for the competitive ''Team Fortress Classic'' community of Australia and New Zealand. ozfortress hosted a variety of TFC tournaments up until the early 2010s before official ozfortress support ended.

The ozfortress website was hosted on a standalone website for the majority of its lifetime until October of 2018, when it was announced that ongoing news posts would be issued on the organisations' Warzone page. In early 2020, the ozfortress forums went offline indefinitely, along with all information pertaining to competitions played before [[Ozfortress_Season_16|OZF 16]]. Currently, what was previously the ozfortress Warzone page has taken the domain name of the original ozfortress.com site and is the current home of ozfortress. Large portions of the old forums can be accessed through the [https://web.archive.org/web/20230000000000*/https://ozfortress.com Wayback Machine Archive].

==Major Leagues and Competitions==
===OZF: the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League===
'''2016 - Present''' 
====Overview====
[[File:OZF27.png|thumb|450px|Banner for ozfortress Sixes Season 27, played throughout early 2020.]]
Announced on the 24th February, 2016, the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is the successor to the organization's previous [[Ozfortress#OWL:_the_ozfortress_Winter_League|OWL tournaments]] that concluded with OWL 14 and were continued into OZF 15 and beyond. The tournament has been ran triannually since its inception and features five tiers: Premier, High, Intermediate, Main and Open. Main was introduced as a solution to [[Glossary#Sandbagging|sandbagging]] and to provide a middle ground between Open and Intermediate.

====Format====
The ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is most commonly run over a period of 10 weeks, the first seven being allocated to the regular season and the remaining weeks to playoffs. A pool of 9 maps is chosen prior to the seasons' launch. Premier, High and Intermediate are usually played in a round robin bracket, whilst Main and Open are run on the Swiss system. Throughout the regular season, two maps are chosen to be played by all teams each week. At the conclusion of the regular season, the top four teams of each division qualify for playoffs. Playoffs are run in a Bo3 format, with the three maps for each match being determined by a pick/ban system. The Premier grand final is a Bo5.

OZF playoffs use the Page Playoff system, in which the top two teams play each other(upper page playoffs) and the bottom two play each other(lower page playoffs). The winner of the upper page playoffs graduates to the grand final, whilst the loser plays the winner of the lower page playoffs in the semi-final. The winner of the semi-final then plays the winner of the upper page playoffs in the grand final.

ozfortress 6v6 makes use of [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_6v6_s36 a custom whitelist].

===OZHL: the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League===
'''2022 - Present''' 
====Overview====
The ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is a newer league designed for [[Highlander]] competition. OZHL functions much in the same way as OZF, but with a map pool, ruleset and weapon banlist suited to the Highlander gamemode. The league made its debut in mid 2022 after the [[Respawn League]] was dissolved into ozfortress. Staff previously overseeing RSL competitions were installed as ozfortress' new Highlander staff. Similarly, many teams such as [[red pandas]] and [[rascals]] that had formerly played in the Respawn League (and UGC) have since competed in OZHL.

Ozfortress has been predominantly a 6v6 platform for the vast majority of its lifetime. Previously, ozfortress hosted a now long-defunct ladder competition; the Ozfortress Highlander League (ozhl) which had its last title in 2014. This previous competition was run in much the same way as the late ozfl.

====Format====
As stated earlier, the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is run very similarly to the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League. The season is run over 8 weeks, with the first five allocated to the regular season and three for playoffs. OZHL uses [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_hl_s3 a less restrictive whitelist] than ozfortress Sixes.

Further information is available at the [https://docs.ozfortress.com/rules/highlander official ozfortress website].

==Minor Leagues and Competitions==
This section describes more casual or offseason events run by ozfortress.
===Ultiduo===
'''2007 - Present''' 
ozfortress [[Ultiduo]] is an annual single-elimination competition run during the offseason between ozfortress' seasonal premier competition - in the past the OWL league and currently the OZF league. For the majority of its lifetime, Ultiduo has been an open tournament run over either a period of a few days or a few hours. Most recently, (Ultiduo 17) the tournament has been run over 3 hours and 2 divisions.

The ozfortress Ultiduo competition is the oldest still-running ''Team Fortress 2'' competition in the Oceanic scene, having been played for over 16 years as of 2024, with its origins lying as far back as the 27th of December, 2007. <ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20071230221228/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25002 Wayback Machine Archive: SINISTAR and BOWT are crowned the 1st ozf Ultimate Duo!]</ref>

===MSNC: A Midsummer Night's Cup===
'''2017 - Present''' 
A Midsummer Night's Cup are a series of single-night [[6v6]] competitions that were run twice a summer from 2017 through to 2019. From 2020 however, MSNC have been run at irregular intervals with the recent addition of a MSNC [[Highlander]] league. Teams are split into three divisions - either Premier, Intermediate and Open or Divisions 1 through 3. The focus for these cups is to provide ozfortress players with a more casual laid-back experience in between seasons. Hence, many MSNC tournaments have seen looser team compositions and more extensive offclassing than the seasonal leagues.

==Previous Leagues and Competitions==
This section covers currently inactive ozfortress leagues or competitions. This includes those that have been formally concluded and those that may return in future years.

===ozfl: the ozfortress league===
'''2008 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress league was a continuous 6v6 ladder competition open to teams of all skill levels. Match scheduling was determined by a team's win/loss streak, which provided them with the opportunity to face opponents at other skill levels, or opponents they would otherwise never meet in regular scrimmage. This league was seen as a proving ground for new maps designed for the competitive community, and was paired with a less restrictive whitelist. ozfl was largely regarded as a pathway into ozfortress' previous premier competition, the ozfortress winter league (OWL) series.

The ozfortress league was the longest running Team Fortress competition in the Oceanic scene, with its origins lying as far back as November 2002 with ''Team Fortress Classic''.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20021206100839/http://ozfl.ozfortress.com/ Wayback Machine Archive: OZFL - Season 1 commenced!]</ref> The first signups for the ''Team Fortress 2'' edition of the ozfortress league were announced on the 7th of May 2008 and began with an 8v8 format with random critical hits.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080621190542/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=26403 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress Team Fortress 2 League]</ref> The second round of matches saw a new 6v6 format being run alongside 8v8 and random crits disabled, before 8v8 was phased out entirely in March of the following year.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20090316070728/http://ozfortress.com:80/ Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress says good-bye to 8v8]</ref>

The ozfortress league ran a total of 127 rounds of ''Team Fortress 2'' matches spanning nearly 7 years, with the final game being played on the 20th of March, 2015. [[Team Immunity]] accounted for 55 of the titles won, thus winning over 40% of ozfortress league titles.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20190109053433/http://www.ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=28089 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress league title history]</ref>

===ozfc: the ozfortress cup===
'''2008 - 2013''' 
The ozfortress cup was a double elimination exhibition competition. The cup had 16 slots, 12 of which were occupied by the top 12 teams of the year. The remaining 4 slots were claimed as eight 'wildcards' who competed with each other in a qualifier format.

The ozfortress cup was the first non-Ultiduo ozfortress ''Team Fortress 2'' competition to be run. The first OZFC began on the 10th of January, 2008 in an 8v8 format.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080118012240/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25201 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfc1 - draw and points]</ref>

===OWL: the ozfortress Winter League===
[[File:Owl 14.png|thumb|600px|The banner for the final OWL season before the transfer to OZF. OWL 14 came to a close in September of 2015.]]
'''2009 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress winter league was the initial premier competition series run by ozfortress. It was a seasonal, round-robin [[6v6]] invitational that ran approximately twice a year. Teams were split into skill based divisions, from Division 1 or Premier down to Division 6. However, the number of divisions often varied between seasons depending on the number of teams registered. A typical competition ran over 10 weeks of matches and teams were invited to apply for selection before the competition began.

OWL was later phased out in favour of the ozfortress seasonal league following OWL 14 in early 2016. Recently however, the ozfortress Winter League has made a comeback in the form of OWL 2021, running alongside the existing OZF seasonal league.

===C4C: Capping for a Cause===
'''2010 - ~2012-13''' 
Capping for a Cause (stylised as '''Capping 4 a Cause''', or '''C4C''') was a 16 team open double-elimination competition run three times from 2010 to 2012. C4C aimed to raise funds for a named charity. Teams were asked to 'buy' their seeding by donating to the charity, where the highest seeds were given to the highest donating teams, providing them with a scheduling advantage throughout the tournament. Over the three iterations of C4C, over $22,000 AUD was raised for charities. These included the Australian Cancer Research Foundation, BeyondBlue and the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.

Trickstabs

2024-05-22T14:48:53Z

Lofty: cleaning up

Trickstabs are special maneuvers used by [[Spy|Spies]] to backstab enemies that know they are a spy. There are several trickstabs that help achieve this goal. While trickstabs may be cool and flashy, they should only be used as a last resort, due to their reliance on the target failing to prepare for them.
==Tricking the Opponent==
Trickstabs are usually used only - and are most effective as - a last resort: they only work when the enemy is not seeing them coming, and failing the first try greatly reduces the chances of succeeding on subsequent trickstabs. Like a magician, the spy should pull the enemy's attention away from the trickstab. [[Revolver|Revolvers]] are often used for this: shooting the enemy may make him think that the spy is not trying to use his [[Knife|knife]] at all. Being at low health also helps: players usually relax when they know that they only need a couple shots or less to kill their enemy.

==List of Trickstabs==
===Stairstab===
When a Spy goes up an incline with someone chasing him, he can crouchjump over the target's head to get behind and land a stab. The method for this is generally to actually land ON the person whom they wish to stab's right or left shoulder while crouching, then turning left or right (turn left if on their right shoulder, and vice versa), and stabbing. Pioneered by [https://www.youtube.com/user/SubtIeArt SubtleArt], the stairstab rewards Spies who are aware of the map and their surroundings, although Stairstabs overall are usually not very effective in a competitive game, seeing as most players know better than to fall for such a trick.

===Jumpstab/Rampstab===
Like a stairstab, but instead of inclines, which are commonly used and thus easy to predict, the Spy jumps on props such as barrels, railings, and sentry guns to get a height boost for the stab. Even the smallest height difference allows for a rampstab. For example, jumping onto an Engineer's teleporter provides enough extra height to land a successful rampstab. These stabs work much better than stairstabs, because even experienced players won't necessarily expect a spy to be able to jump over them if not on an obvious incline.

===Counter To Counter (C2C) Stairstab===
If someone is aware of the jumpstab, jump on their heads, and when they rotate 180 degrees to "catch" you, strafe the other way and stab them.

===Understab===
The Spy leads someone off the high ground, then strafes under and stabs the target. Can also be done against explosive jumpers. This can be done because the angle for a successful backstab is exactly 180 degrees, no matter the height. The concept for this is the same as the stairstab, except in reverse.

===Cornerstab===
The Spy leads someone around a corner, then doubles back around the corner to get at their side and stabs them. A beginner's mistake in this trickstab is not waiting long enough. Depending on the target and on how far away they are from the corner the spy leads them around, it may take from immediately to a few seconds. The rule of thumb is to wait about one second unless they are practically right behind the spy.

===Blindstab===
Same as a Stairstab or Jumpstab, but the Spy leads the target around a corner as well, which makes the target unable to see the Spy jumping at him. Due to the threat of this, the target may wait around the corner to kill the Spy, enabling him to escape.

===Matador Stab===
The Spy strafes one way to draw the target into looking that way to not expose his backstab radius, then strafes the other way and stabs him. The concept of this is similar to a cornerstab. Oftentimes, one can imagine this as a cornerstab without a corner. The spy first strafes right around their imaginary corner, then back.

===SwitchStab===
Similar to a Matador, but uses the forward and backward keys to pull it off. The Spy pretends to walk past the target (W) only to move back (S) as the enemy turns to face where they were and score the stab.

===Reverse-Matador Stab===
When the target is chasing from behind, the Spy may turn around and strafe in one direction then strafe the opposing direction for the stab, similar to a normal matador. There are a multitude of variations however turning around quickly and strafing the opposite way is the most common form. The use for this is commonly against chasing opponents.

===Drop Stab===
Dropping from a great height (or something that is above the enemy head and has a platform) and if needed airstrafing to get behind the target and stab them before touching the ground. In contrast to the unreliability of most trickstabs, this is the hardest kind of stab to see coming (and the only way to work also). This stab is best done from a reasonably high height, for example, dropping from badwaters' roof into the cart capturing the 2nd point. This is perhaps the most reliable kind of trickstab, due to its nature which means that it is hard for it to be seen ahead of time.

This stab can be practiced on tr_walkway_rc2.

===Circle Strafe Stab===
The process of strafing in a way to counter the opponents strafe, usually to cut off their sideways strafe however it can extend into a backpedal stab. An enemy that is strafing would not be able to be stabbed by a Matador due to them using a strafe key as when using a strafe key the player's movement is pulling more sideways and away from the spy as well as their aim having to move less than normal. The point of Circle Strafing is to counter the opponents strafes instead of attempting a matador in which would fail.

===Breast Milk Stab===

A deprecated fad term for approaching a stab from above an enemy at a 10 - 20 degree angle. Initially proposed by the spy "tf2klown" in 2012 as a joke, the term picked up popularity in 2019 and 2020 dueto consistent references by influential spies such as swipez referencing it in both his discord server and in several (now deleted) short videos. The term had multiple interpretations due to its nature as a prevalent joke fad name, but the general consensus was that this stab referred to a quick and shallow surf stab.
It was also sometimes used to describe a "telestab" because the telestab created a similarly low angle of approach, however it more commonly referred to a surfs rather than simple jumps because of the former's rarity and specialty. Upon the trend's end in late 2021, the term was eventually dropped in favor of "shallow surf" or just simply calling the stab a "surfstab".

===Moonwalk Stab===
An obscure stab made by CulRulDud, it involves the Spy being chased by a target. As the Spy pretends to run away, quickly start going back while strafing either left or right towards the chasing target and catch them off guard. Works well against Scouts and Spies.

===Backpedal Stab===
If a target is backpedalling using the backward key, the Spy can strafe towards and stick to them. By strafing and not backpedalling, the Spy keeps his running speed while the target who is backpedalling loses their speed. Due to their adjustments, they will automatically look away from the Spy and expose their backs. This stab will almost always look like a facestab on the target side.

===Skibidi Toilet Stab===
An Understab involving a jump or being launched by an explosive or airblast, mimicking the movement of the titular characters of the popular media franchise “Skibidi Toilet”. This would usually be performed on a rocket jumping Soldier or sticky jumping Demoman (although could be performed on any class that has been launched into the air). It is a highly impressive play which has not yet been recorded as having occurred. Also referred to as a Jump Understab.

===Failstab===
A failed backstab, usually failed by newer players. This normally happens when an enemy turns around right as the player is about to stab, the hitbox not registering, or other similar issues. An example of a possible way to lower the chances of this happening is to watch the opponents movement carefully, and to strike when the iron is hot.

This stab is known by a few names, one of which being a “Gerald Ford” stab. Named after the 38th president of the United States of America, who only became president out of a few lucky coincidences. Those being him becoming Vice President after the first one resigned, and only becoming president after Nixon resigned. Ford also proceeded to lose his reelection, which was possibly caused by him pardoning Richard Nixon. The name relates to this as Ford failed at everything, similar to how the spy messes up a backstab.

'''ozfortress''' is the longest running and most popular competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' league in the Oceanic region. ozfortress supports [[Highlander]], [[6v6]] and [[Ultiduo]] seasonal competitions, as well as numerous offseason events. ozfortress is considered to host the highest level of competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' play in Oceania.

==History==
ozfortress was established in 2001 by TFC players {{flag|au}} ''mercury'' and {{flag|au}} ''tempest'' to cater for the competitive ''Team Fortress Classic'' community of Australia and New Zealand. ozfortress hosted a variety of TFC tournaments up until the early 2010s before official ozfortress support ended.

The ozfortress website was hosted on a standalone website for the majority of its lifetime until October of 2018, when it was announced that ongoing news posts would be issued on the organisations' Warzone page. In early 2020, the ozfortress forums went offline indefinitely, along with all information pertaining to competitions played before [[Ozfortress_Season_16|OZF 16]]. Currently, what was previously the ozfortress Warzone page has taken the domain name of the original ozfortress.com site and is the current home of ozfortress. Large portions of the old forums can be accessed through the [https://web.archive.org/web/20230000000000*/https://ozfortress.com Wayback Machine Archive].

==Major Leagues and Competitions==
===OZF: the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League===
'''2016 - Present''' 
====Overview====
[[File:OZF27.png|thumb|450px|Banner for ozfortress Sixes Season 27, played throughout early 2020.]]
Announced on the 24th February, 2016, the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is the successor to the organization's previous [[Ozfortress#OWL:_the_ozfortress_Winter_League|OWL tournaments]] that concluded with OWL 14 and were continued into OZF 15 and beyond. The tournament has been ran triannually since its inception and features five tiers: Premier, High, Intermediate, Main and Open. Main was introduced as a solution to [[Glossary#Sandbagging|sandbagging]] and to provide a middle ground between Open and Intermediate.

====Format====
The ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is most commonly run over a period of 10 weeks, the first seven being allocated to the regular season and the remaining weeks to playoffs. A pool of 9 maps is chosen prior to the seasons' launch. Premier, High and Intermediate are usually played in a round robin bracket, whilst Main and Open are run on the Swiss system. Throughout the regular season, two maps are chosen to be played by all teams each week. At the conclusion of the regular season, the top four teams of each division qualify for playoffs. Playoffs are run in a Bo3 format, with the three maps for each match being determined by a pick/ban system. The Premier grand final is a Bo5.

OZF playoffs use the Page Playoff system, in which the top two teams play each other(upper page playoffs) and the bottom two play each other(lower page playoffs). The winner of the upper page playoffs graduates to the grand final, whilst the loser plays the winner of the lower page playoffs in the semi-final. The winner of the semi-final then plays the winner of the upper page playoffs in the grand final.

ozfortress 6v6 makes use of [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_6v6_s36 a custom whitelist]. 

Further information is available at the [https://docs.ozfortress.com/rules/sixes official ozfortress website].

===OZHL: the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League===
'''2022 - Present''' 
====Overview====
The ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is a newer league designed for [[Highlander]] competition. OZHL functions much in the same way as OZF, but with a map pool, ruleset and weapon banlist suited to the Highlander gamemode. The league made its debut in mid 2022 after the [[Respawn League]] was dissolved into ozfortress. Staff previously overseeing RSL competitions were installed as ozfortress' new Highlander staff. Similarly, many teams such as [[red pandas]] and [[rascals]] that had formerly played in the Respawn League (and UGC) have since competed in OZHL.

Ozfortress has been predominantly a 6v6 platform for the vast majority of its lifetime. Previously, ozfortress hosted a now long-defunct ladder competition; the Ozfortress Highlander League (ozhl) which had its last title in 2014. This previous competition was run in much the same way as the late ozfl.

====Format====
As stated earlier, the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is run very similarly to the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League. The season is run over 8 weeks, with the first five allocated to the regular season and three for playoffs. OZHL uses [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_hl_s3 a less restrictive whitelist] than ozfortress Sixes.

Further information is available at the [https://docs.ozfortress.com/rules/highlander official ozfortress website].

==Minor Leagues and Competitions==
This section describes more casual or offseason events run by ozfortress.
===Ultiduo===
'''2007 - Present''' 
ozfortress [[Ultiduo]] is an annual single-elimination competition run during the offseason between ozfortress' seasonal premier competition - in the past the OWL league and currently the OZF league. For the majority of its lifetime, Ultiduo has been an open tournament run over either a period of a few days or a few hours. Most recently, (Ultiduo 17) the tournament has been run over 3 hours and 2 divisions.

The ozfortress Ultiduo competition is the oldest still-running ''Team Fortress 2'' competition in the Oceanic scene, having been played for over 16 years as of 2024, with its origins lying as far back as the 27th of December, 2007. <ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20071230221228/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25002 Wayback Machine Archive: SINISTAR and BOWT are crowned the 1st ozf Ultimate Duo!]</ref>

===MSNC: A Midsummer Night's Cup===
'''2017 - Present''' 
A Midsummer Night's Cup are a series of single-night [[6v6]] competitions that were run twice a summer from 2017 through to 2019. From 2020 however, MSNC have been run at irregular intervals with the recent addition of a MSNC [[Highlander]] league. Teams are split into three divisions - either Premier, Intermediate and Open or Divisions 1 through 3. The focus for these cups is to provide ozfortress players with a more casual laid-back experience in between seasons. Hence, many MSNC tournaments have seen looser team compositions and more extensive offclassing than the seasonal leagues.

==Previous Leagues and Competitions==
This section covers currently inactive ozfortress leagues or competitions. This includes those that have been formally concluded and those that may return in future years.

===ozfl: the ozfortress league===
'''2008 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress league was a continuous 6v6 ladder competition open to teams of all skill levels. Match scheduling was determined by a team's win/loss streak, which provided them with the opportunity to face opponents at other skill levels, or opponents they would otherwise never meet in regular scrimmage. This league was seen as a proving ground for new maps designed for the competitive community, and was paired with a less restrictive whitelist. ozfl was largely regarded as a pathway into ozfortress' previous premier competition, the ozfortress winter league (OWL) series.

The ozfortress league was the longest running Team Fortress competition in the Oceanic scene, with its origins lying as far back as November 2002 with ''Team Fortress Classic''.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20021206100839/http://ozfl.ozfortress.com/ Wayback Machine Archive: OZFL - Season 1 commenced!]</ref> The first signups for the ''Team Fortress 2'' edition of the ozfortress league were announced on the 7th of May 2008 and began with an 8v8 format with random critical hits.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080621190542/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=26403 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress Team Fortress 2 League]</ref> The second round of matches saw a new 6v6 format being run alongside 8v8 and random crits disabled, before 8v8 was phased out entirely in March of the following year.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20090316070728/http://ozfortress.com:80/ Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress says good-bye to 8v8]</ref>

The ozfortress league ran a total of 127 rounds of ''Team Fortress 2'' matches spanning nearly 7 years, with the final game being played on the 20th of March, 2015. [[Team Immunity]] accounted for 55 of the titles won, thus winning over 40% of ozfortress league titles.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20190109053433/http://www.ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=28089 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress league title history]</ref>

===ozfc: the ozfortress cup===
'''2008 - 2013''' 
The ozfortress cup was a double elimination exhibition competition. The cup had 16 slots, 12 of which were occupied by the top 12 teams of the year. The remaining 4 slots were claimed as eight 'wildcards' who competed with each other in a qualifier format.

The ozfortress cup was the first non-Ultiduo ozfortress ''Team Fortress 2'' competition to be run. The first OZFC began on the 10th of January, 2008 in an 8v8 format.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080118012240/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25201 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfc1 - draw and points]</ref>

===OWL: the ozfortress Winter League===
[[File:Owl 14.png|thumb|600px|The banner for the final OWL season before the transfer to OZF. OWL 14 came to a close in September of 2015.]]
'''2009 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress winter league was the initial premier competition series run by ozfortress. It was a seasonal, round-robin [[6v6]] invitational that ran approximately twice a year. Teams were split into skill based divisions, from Division 1 or Premier down to Division 6. However, the number of divisions often varied between seasons depending on the number of teams registered. A typical competition ran over 10 weeks of matches and teams were invited to apply for selection before the competition began.

OWL was later phased out in favour of the ozfortress seasonal league following OWL 14 in early 2016. Recently however, the ozfortress Winter League has made a comeback in the form of OWL 2021, running alongside the existing OZF seasonal league.

===C4C: Capping for a Cause===
'''2010 - ~2012-13''' 
Capping for a Cause (stylised as '''Capping 4 a Cause''', or '''C4C''') was a 16 team open double-elimination competition run three times from 2010 to 2012. C4C aimed to raise funds for a named charity. Teams were asked to 'buy' their seeding by donating to the charity, where the highest seeds were given to the highest donating teams, providing them with a scheduling advantage throughout the tournament. Over the three iterations of C4C, over $22,000 AUD was raised for charities. These included the Australian Cancer Research Foundation, BeyondBlue and the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.

'''ozfortress''' is the longest running and most popular competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' league in the Oceanic region. ozfortress supports [[Highlander]], [[6v6]] and [[Ultiduo]] seasonal competitions, as well as numerous offseason events. ozfortress is considered to host the highest level of competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' play in Oceania.

==History==
ozfortress was established in 2001 by TFC players {{flag|au}} ''mercury'' and {{flag|au}} ''tempest'' to cater for the competitive ''Team Fortress Classic'' community of Australia and New Zealand. ozfortress hosted a variety of TFC tournaments up until the early 2010s before official ozfortress support ended.

The ozfortress website was hosted on a standalone website for the majority of its lifetime until October of 2018, when it was announced that ongoing news posts would be issued on the organisations' Warzone page. In early 2020, the ozfortress forums went offline indefinitely, along with all information pertaining to competitions played before [[Ozfortress_Season_16|OZF 16]]. Currently, what was previously the ozfortress Warzone page has taken the domain name of the original ozfortress.com site and is the current home of ozfortress. Large portions of the old forums can be accessed through the [https://web.archive.org/web/20230000000000*/https://ozfortress.com Wayback Machine Archive].

==Major Leagues and Competitions==
===OZF: the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League===
'''2016 - Present''' 
====Overview====
[[File:OZF27.png|thumb|450px|Banner for ozfortress Sixes Season 27, played throughout early 2020.]]
Announced on the 24th February, 2016, the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is the successor to the organization's previous [[Ozfortress#OWL:_the_ozfortress_Winter_League|OWL tournaments]] that concluded with OWL 14 and were continued into OZF 15 and beyond. The tournament has been ran triannually since its inception and features five tiers: Premier, High, Intermediate, Main and Open. Main was introduced as a solution to [[Glossary#Sandbagging|sandbagging]] and to provide a middle ground between Open and Intermediate.

====Format====
The ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is most commonly run over a period of 10 weeks, the first seven being allocated to the regular season and the remaining weeks to playoffs. A pool of 9 maps is chosen prior to the seasons' launch. Premier, High and Intermediate are usually played in a round robin bracket, whilst Main and Open are run on the Swiss system. Throughout the regular season, two maps are chosen to be played by all teams each week. At the conclusion of the regular season, the top four teams of each division qualify for playoffs. Playoffs are run in a Bo3 format, with the three maps for each match being determined by a pick/ban system. The Premier grand final is a Bo5.

OZF playoffs use the Page Playoff system, in which the top two teams play each other(upper page playoffs) and the bottom two play each other(lower page playoffs). The winner of the upper page playoffs graduates to the grand final, whilst the loser plays the winner of the lower page playoffs in the semi-final. The winner of the semi-final then plays the winner of the upper page playoffs in the grand final.

ozfortress 6v6 makes use of [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_6v6_s36 a custom whitelist].

===OZHL: the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League===
'''2022 - Present''' 
====Overview====
The ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is a newer league designed for [[Highlander]] competition. OZHL functions much in the same way as OZF, but with a map pool, ruleset and weapon banlist suited to the Highlander gamemode. The league made its debut in mid 2022 after the [[Respawn League]] was dissolved into ozfortress. Staff previously overseeing RSL competitions were installed as ozfortress' new Highlander staff. Similarly, many teams such as [[red pandas]] and [[rascals]] that had formerly played in the Respawn League (and UGC) have since competed in OZHL.

Ozfortress has been predominantly a 6v6 platform for the vast majority of its lifetime. Previously, ozfortress hosted a now long-defunct ladder competition; the Ozfortress Highlander League (ozhl) which had its last title in 2014. This previous competition was run in much the same way as the late ozfl.

====Format====
As stated earlier, the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is run very similarly to the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League. The season is run over 8 weeks, with the first five allocated to the regular season and three for playoffs. OZHL uses [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_hl_s3 a less restrictive whitelist] than ozfortress Sixes.

Further information is available at the [https://docs.ozfortress.com/rules/highlander official ozfortress website].

==Minor Leagues and Competitions==
This section describes more casual or offseason events run by ozfortress.
===Ultiduo===
'''2007 - Present''' 
ozfortress [[Ultiduo]] is an annual single-elimination competition run during the offseason between ozfortress' seasonal premier competition - in the past the OWL league and currently the OZF league. For the majority of its lifetime, Ultiduo has been an open tournament run over either a period of a few days or a few hours. Most recently, (Ultiduo 17) the tournament has been run over 3 hours and 2 divisions.

The ozfortress Ultiduo competition is the oldest still-running ''Team Fortress 2'' competition in the Oceanic scene, having been played for nearly 16 years, with its origins lying as far back as the 27th of December, 2007. <ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20071230221228/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25002 Wayback Machine Archive: SINISTAR and BOWT are crowned the 1st ozf Ultimate Duo!]</ref>

===MSNC: A Midsummer Night's Cup===
'''2017 - Present''' 
A Midsummer Night's Cup are a series of single-night [[6v6]] competitions that were run twice a summer from 2017 through to 2019. From 2020 however, MSNC have been run at irregular intervals with the recent addition of a MSNC [[Highlander]] league. Teams are split into three divisions - either Premier, Intermediate and Open or Divisions 1 through 3. The focus for these cups is to provide ozfortress players with a more casual laid-back experience in between seasons. Hence, many MSNC tournaments have seen looser team compositions and more extensive offclassing than the seasonal leagues.

==Previous Leagues and Competitions==
This section covers currently inactive ozfortress leagues or competitions. This includes those that have been formally concluded and those that may return in future years.

===ozfl: the ozfortress league===
'''2008 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress league was a continuous 6v6 ladder competition open to teams of all skill levels. Match scheduling was determined by a team's win/loss streak, which provided them with the opportunity to face opponents at other skill levels, or opponents they would otherwise never meet in regular scrimmage. This league was seen as a proving ground for new maps designed for the competitive community, and was paired with a less restrictive whitelist. ozfl was largely regarded as a pathway into ozfortress' previous premier competition, the ozfortress winter league (OWL) series.

The ozfortress league was the longest running Team Fortress competition in the Oceanic scene, with its origins lying as far back as November 2002 with ''Team Fortress Classic''.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20021206100839/http://ozfl.ozfortress.com/ Wayback Machine Archive: OZFL - Season 1 commenced!]</ref> The first signups for the ''Team Fortress 2'' edition of the ozfortress league were announced on the 7th of May 2008 and began with an 8v8 format with random critical hits.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080621190542/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=26403 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress Team Fortress 2 League]</ref> The second round of matches saw a new 6v6 format being run alongside 8v8 and random crits disabled, before 8v8 was phased out entirely in March of the following year.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20090316070728/http://ozfortress.com:80/ Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress says good-bye to 8v8]</ref>

The ozfortress league ran a total of 127 rounds of ''Team Fortress 2'' matches spanning nearly 7 years, with the final game being played on the 20th of March, 2015. [[Team Immunity]] accounted for 55 of the titles won, thus winning over 40% of ozfortress league titles.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20190109053433/http://www.ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=28089 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress league title history]</ref>

===ozfc: the ozfortress cup===
'''2008 - 2013''' 
The ozfortress cup was a double elimination exhibition competition. The cup had 16 slots, 12 of which were occupied by the top 12 teams of the year. The remaining 4 slots were claimed as eight 'wildcards' who competed with each other in a qualifier format.

The ozfortress cup was the first non-Ultiduo ozfortress ''Team Fortress 2'' competition to be run. The first OZFC began on the 10th of January, 2008 in an 8v8 format.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080118012240/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25201 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfc1 - draw and points]</ref>

===OWL: the ozfortress Winter League===
[[File:Owl 14.png|thumb|600px|The banner for the final OWL season before the transfer to OZF. OWL 14 came to a close in September of 2015.]]
'''2009 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress winter league was the initial premier competition series run by ozfortress. It was a seasonal, round-robin [[6v6]] invitational that ran approximately twice a year. Teams were split into skill based divisions, from Division 1 or Premier down to Division 6. However, the number of divisions often varied between seasons depending on the number of teams registered. A typical competition ran over 10 weeks of matches and teams were invited to apply for selection before the competition began.

OWL was later phased out in favour of the ozfortress seasonal league following OWL 14 in early 2016. Recently however, the ozfortress Winter League has made a comeback in the form of OWL 2021, running alongside the existing OZF seasonal league.

===C4C: Capping for a Cause===
'''2010 - ~2012-13''' 
Capping for a Cause (stylised as '''Capping 4 a Cause''', or '''C4C''') was a 16 team open double-elimination competition run three times from 2010 to 2012. C4C aimed to raise funds for a named charity. Teams were asked to 'buy' their seeding by donating to the charity, where the highest seeds were given to the highest donating teams, providing them with a scheduling advantage throughout the tournament. Over the three iterations of C4C, over $22,000 AUD was raised for charities. These included the Australian Cancer Research Foundation, BeyondBlue and the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.

'''ozfortress''' is the longest running and most popular competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' league in the Oceanic region. ozfortress supports [[Highlander]], [[6v6]] and [[Ultiduo]] seasonal competitions, as well as numerous offseason events. ozfortress is considered to host the highest level of competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' play in Oceania.

==History==
ozfortress was established in 2001 by TFC players {{flag|au}} ''mercury'' and {{flag|au}} ''tempest'' to cater for the competitive ''Team Fortress Classic'' community of Australia and New Zealand. ozfortress hosted a variety of TFC tournaments up until the early 2010s before official ozfortress support ended.

The ozfortress website was hosted on a standalone website for the majority of its lifetime until October of 2018, when it was announced that ongoing news posts would be issued on the organisations' Warzone page. In early 2020, the ozfortress forums went offline indefinitely, along with all information pertaining to competitions played before [[Ozfortress_Season_16|OZF 16]]. Currently, what was previously the ozfortress Warzone page has taken the domain name of the original ozfortress.com site and is the current home of ozfortress. Large portions of the old forums can be accessed through the [https://web.archive.org/web/20230000000000*/https://ozfortress.com Wayback Machine Archive].

==Major Leagues and Competitions==
===OZF: the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League===
'''2016 - Present''' 
====Overview====
[[File:OZF27.png|thumb|450px|Banner for ozfortress Sixes Season 27, played throughout early 2020.]]
Announced on the 24th February, 2016, the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is the successor to the organization's previous [[Ozfortress#OWL:_the_ozfortress_Winter_League|OWL tournaments]] that concluded with OWL 14 and were continued into OZF 15 and beyond. The tournament has been ran triannually since its inception and features five tiers: Premier, High, Intermediate, Main and Open. Main was introduced as a solution to [[Glossary#Sandbagging|sandbagging]] and to provide a middle ground between Open and Intermediate.

====Format====
The ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is most commonly run over a period of 10 weeks, the first seven being allocated to the regular season and the remaining weeks to playoffs. A pool of 9 maps is chosen prior to the seasons' launch. Premier, High and Intermediate are usually played in a round robin bracket, whilst Main and Open are run on the Swiss system. Throughout the regular season, two maps are chosen to be played by all teams each week. At the conclusion of the regular season, the top four teams of each division qualify for playoffs. Playoffs are run in a Bo3 format, with the three maps for each match being determined by a pick/ban system. The Premier grand final is a Bo5.

OZF playoffs use the Page Playoff system, in which the top two teams play each other(upper page playoffs) and the bottom two play each other(lower page playoffs). The winner of the upper page playoffs graduates to the grand final, whilst the loser plays the winner of the lower page playoffs in the semi-final. The winner of the semi-final then plays the winner of the upper page playoffs in the grand final.

ozfortress 6v6 makes use of [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_6v6_s36 a custom whitelist].

===OZHL: the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League===
'''2022 - Present''' 
====Overview====
The ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is a newer league designed for [[Highlander]] competition. OZHL functions much in the same way as OZF, but with a map pool, ruleset and weapon banlist suited to the Highlander gamemode. The league made its debut in mid 2022 after the [[Respawn League]] was dissolved into ozfortress. Staff previously overseeing RSL competitions were installed as ozfortress' new Highlander staff. Similarly, many teams such as [[red pandas]] and [[rascals]] that had formerly played in the Respawn League (and UGC) have since competed in OZHL.

Ozfortress has been predominantly a 6v6 platform for the vast majority of its lifetime. Previously, ozfortress hosted a now long-defunct ladder competition; the Ozfortress Highlander League (ozhl) which had its last title in 2014. This previous competition was run in much the same way as the late ozfl.

====Format====
As stated earlier, the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is run very similarly to the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League. The season is run over 8 weeks, with the first five allocated to the regular season and three for playoffs. OZHL uses [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_hl_s3 a less restrictive whitelist] than ozfortress Sixes.

Further information is available at the [https://docs.ozfortress.com/rules/highlander official ozfortress website].

==Minor Leagues and Competitions==
This section describes more casual or offseason events run by ozfortress.
===Ultiduo===
'''2007 - Present''' 
ozfortress [[Ultiduo]] is an annual single-elimination competition run during the offseason between ozfortress' seasonal premier competition - in the past the OWL league and currently the OZF league. For the majority of its lifetime, Ultiduo has been an open tournament run over either a period of a few days or a few hours. Most recently, (Ultiduo 17) the tournament has been run over 3 hours and 2 divisions.

The ozfortress Ultiduo competition is the oldest still-running ''Team Fortress 2'' competition in the Oceanic scene, having been played for nearly 16 years, with its origins lying as far back as the 27th of December, 2007. <ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20071230221228/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25002 Wayback Machine Archive: SINISTAR and BOWT are crowned the 1st ozf Ultimate Duo!]</ref>

===MSNC: A Midsummer Night's Cup===
'''2017 - Present''' 
A Midsummer Night's Cup are a series of single-night [[6v6]] competitions that were run twice a summer from 2017 through to 2019. From 2020 however, MSNC have been run at irregular intervals with the recent addition of a MSNC [[Highlander]] league. Teams are split into three divisions - either Premier, Intermediate and Open or Divisions 1 through 3. The focus for these cups is to provide ozfortress players with a more casual laid-back experience in between seasons. Hence, many MSNC tournaments have seen looser team compositions and more extensive offclassing than the seasonal leagues.

==Previous Leagues and Competitions==
This section covers currently inactive ozfortress leagues or competitions. This includes those that have been formally concluded and those that may return in future years.

===ozfl: the ozfortress league===
'''2008 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress league was a continuous 6v6 ladder competition open to teams of all skill levels. Match scheduling was determined by a team's win/loss streak, which provided them with the opportunity to face opponents at other skill levels, or opponents they would otherwise never meet in regular scrimmage. This league was seen as a proving ground for new maps designed for the competitive community, and was paired with a less restrictive whitelist. ozfl was largely regarded as a pathway into ozfortress' previous premier competition, the ozfortress winter league (OWL) series.

The ozfortress league was the longest running Team Fortress competition in the Oceanic scene, with its origins lying as far back as November 2002 with ''Team Fortress Classic''.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20021206100839/http://ozfl.ozfortress.com/ Wayback Machine Archive: OZFL - Season 1 commenced!]</ref> The first signups for the ''Team Fortress 2'' edition of the ozfortress league were announced on the 7th of May 2008 and began with an 8v8 format with random critical hits.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080621190542/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=26403 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress Team Fortress 2 League]</ref> The second round of matches saw a new 6v6 format being run alongside 8v8 and random crits disabled, before 8v8 was phased out entirely in March of the following year.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20090316070728/http://ozfortress.com:80/ Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress says good-bye to 8v8]</ref>

The ozfortress league ran a total of 127 rounds of ''Team Fortress 2'' matches spanning nearly 7 years, with the final game being played on the 20th of March, 2015. [[Team Immunity]] accounted for 55 of the titles won, thus winning over 40% of ozfortress league titles.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20190109053433/http://www.ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=28089 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress league title history]</ref>

===ozfc: the ozfortress cup===
'''2008 - 2013''' 
The ozfortress cup was a double elimination exhibition competition. The cup had 16 slots, 12 of which were occupied by the top 12 teams of the year. The remaining 4 slots were claimed as eight 'wildcards' who competed with each other in a qualifier format.

The ozfortress cup was the first non-Ultiduo ozfortress ''Team Fortress 2'' competition to be run. The first OZFC began on the 10th of January, 2008 in an 8v8 format.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080118012240/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25201 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfc1 - draw and points]</ref>

===OWL: the ozfortress Winter League===
[[File:Owl 14.png|thumb|600px|The banner for the final OWL season before the transfer to OZF. OWL 14 came to a close in September of 2015.]]
'''2009 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress winter league was the initial premier competition series run by ozfortress. It was a seasonal, round-robin [[6v6]] invitational that ran approximately twice a year. Teams were split into skill based divisions, from Division 1 or Premier down to Division 6. However, the number of divisions often varied between seasons depending on the number of teams registered. A typical competition ran over 10 weeks of matches and teams were invited to apply for selection before the competition began.

OWL was later phased out in favour of the ozfortress seasonal league following OWL 14 in early 2016. Recently however, the ozfortress Winter League has made a comeback in the form of OWL 2021, running alongside the existing OZF seasonal league.

===C4C: Capping for a Cause===
'''2010 - ~2012-13''' 
Capping for a Cause (stylised as '''Capping 4 a Cause''', or '''C4C''') was a 16 team open double-elimination competition run three times from 2010 to 2012. C4C aimed to raise funds for a named charity. Teams were asked to 'buy' their seeding by donating to the charity, where the highest seeds were given to the highest donating teams, providing them with a scheduling advantage throughout the tournament. Over the three iterations of C4C, over $22,000 AUD was raised for charities. These included the Australian Cancer Research Foundation, BeyondBlue and the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.

'''ozfortress''' is the longest running and most popular competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' league in the Oceanic region. ozfortress supports [[Highlander]], [[6v6]] and [[Ultiduo]] seasonal competitions, as well as numerous offseason events. ozfortress is considered to host the highest level of competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' play in Oceania.

==History==
ozfortress was established in 2001 by TFC players {{flag|au}} ''mercury'' and {{flag|au}} ''tempest'' to cater for the competitive ''Team Fortress Classic'' community of Australia and New Zealand. ozfortress hosted a variety of TFC tournaments up until the early 2010s before official ozfortress support ended.

The ozfortress website was hosted on a standalone website for the majority of its lifetime until October of 2018, when it was announced that ongoing news posts would be issued on the organisations' Warzone page. In early 2020, the ozfortress forums went offline indefinitely, along with all information pertaining to competitions played before [[Ozfortress_Season_16|OZF 16]]. Currently, what was previously the ozfortress Warzone page has taken the domain name of the original ozfortress.com site and is the current home of ozfortress. Large portions of the old forums can be accessed through the [https://web.archive.org/web/20230000000000*/https://ozfortress.com Wayback Machine Archive].

==Major Leagues and Competitions==
===OZF: the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League===
'''2016 - Present''' 
====Overview====
[[File:OZF27.png|thumb|450px|Banner for ozfortress Sixes Season 27, played throughout early 2020.]]
Announced on the 24th February, 2016, the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is the successor to the organization's previous [[Ozfortress#OWL:_the_ozfortress_Winter_League|OWL tournaments]] that concluded with OWL 14 and were continued into OZF 15 and beyond. The tournament has been ran triannually since its inception and features five tiers: Premier, High, Intermediate, Main and Open. Main was introduced as a solution to [[Glossary#Sandbagging|sandbagging]] and to provide a middle ground between Open and Intermediate.

====Format====
The ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is most commonly run over a period of 10 weeks, the first seven being allocated to the regular season and the remaining weeks to playoffs. A pool of 9 maps is chosen prior to the seasons' launch. Premier, High and Intermediate are usually played in a round robin bracket, whilst Main and Open are run on the Swiss system. Throughout the regular season, two maps are chosen to be played by all teams each week. At the conclusion of the regular season, the top four teams of each division qualify for playoffs. Playoffs are run in a Bo3 format, with the three maps for each match being determined by a pick/ban system. The Premier grand final is a Bo5.

OZF playoffs use the Page Playoff system, in which the top two teams play each other(upper page playoffs) and the bottom two play each other(lower page playoffs). The winner of the upper page playoffs graduates to the grand final, whilst the loser plays the winner of the lower page playoffs in the semi-final. The winner of the semi-final then plays the winner of the upper page playoffs in the grand final.

ozfortress 6v6 makes use of [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_6v6_s36 a custom whitelist]. 

Further information is available at the [https://docs.ozfortress.com/rules/sixes official ozfortress website].

===OZHL: the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League===
'''2022 - Present''' 
====Overview====
The ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is a newer league designed for [[Highlander]] competition. OZHL functions much in the same way as OZF, but with a map pool, ruleset and weapon banlist suited to the Highlander gamemode. The league made its debut in mid 2022 after the [[Respawn League]] was dissolved into ozfortress. Staff previously overseeing RSL competitions were installed as ozfortress' new Highlander staff. Similarly, many teams such as [[red pandas]] and [[rascals]] that had formerly played in the Respawn League (and UGC) have since competed in OZHL.

Ozfortress has been predominantly a 6v6 platform for the vast majority of its lifetime. Previously, ozfortress hosted a now long-defunct ladder competition; the Ozfortress Highlander League (ozhl) which had its last title in 2014. This previous competition was run in much the same way as the late ozfl.

====Format====
As stated earlier, the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is run very similarly to the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League. The season is run over 8 weeks, with the first five allocated to the regular season and three for playoffs. OZHL uses [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_hl_s3 a less restrictive whitelist] than ozfortress Sixes.

Further information is available at the [https://docs.ozfortress.com/rules/highlander official ozfortress website].

This section describes more casual or offseason events run by ozfortress.
===Ultiduo===
'''2007 - Present''' 
ozfortress [[Ultiduo]] is an annual single-elimination competition run during the offseason between ozfortress' seasonal premier competition - in the past the OWL league and currently the OZF league. For the majority of its lifetime, Ultiduo has been an open tournament run over either a period of a few days or a few hours. Most recently, (Ultiduo 17) the tournament has been run over 3 hours and 2 divisions.

The ozfortress Ultiduo competition is the oldest still-running ''Team Fortress 2'' competition in the Oceanic scene, having been played for nearly 16 years, with its origins lying as far back as the 27th of December, 2007. <ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20071230221228/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25002 Wayback Machine Archive: SINISTAR and BOWT are crowned the 1st ozf Ultimate Duo!]</ref>

===MSNC: A Midsummer Night's Cup===
'''2017 - Present''' 
A Midsummer Night's Cup are a series of single-night [[6v6]] competitions that were run twice a summer from 2017 through to 2019. From 2020 however, MSNC have been run at irregular intervals with the recent addition of a MSNC [[Highlander]] league. Teams are split into three divisions - either Premier, Intermediate and Open or Divisions 1 through 3. The focus for these cups is to provide ozfortress players with a more casual laid-back experience in between seasons. Hence, many MSNC tournaments have seen looser team compositions and more extensive offclassing than the seasonal leagues.

==Previous Leagues and Competitions==
This section covers currently inactive ozfortress leagues or competitions. This includes those that have been formally concluded and those that may return in future years.

===ozfl: the ozfortress league===
'''2008 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress league was a continuous 6v6 ladder competition open to teams of all skill levels. Match scheduling was determined by a team's win/loss streak, which provided them with the opportunity to face opponents at other skill levels, or opponents they would otherwise never meet in regular scrimmage. This league was seen as a proving ground for new maps designed for the competitive community, and was paired with a less restrictive whitelist. ozfl was largely regarded as a pathway into ozfortress' previous premier competition, the ozfortress winter league (OWL) series.

The ozfortress league was the longest running Team Fortress competition in the Oceanic scene, with its origins lying as far back as November 2002 with ''Team Fortress Classic''.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20021206100839/http://ozfl.ozfortress.com/ Wayback Machine Archive: OZFL - Season 1 commenced!]</ref> The first signups for the ''Team Fortress 2'' edition of the ozfortress league were announced on the 7th of May 2008 and began with an 8v8 format with random critical hits.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080621190542/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=26403 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress Team Fortress 2 League]</ref> The second round of matches saw a new 6v6 format being run alongside 8v8 and random crits disabled, before 8v8 was phased out entirely in March of the following year.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20090316070728/http://ozfortress.com:80/ Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress says good-bye to 8v8]</ref>

The ozfortress league ran a total of 127 rounds of ''Team Fortress 2'' matches spanning nearly 7 years, with the final game being played on the 20th of March, 2015. [[Team Immunity]] accounted for 55 of the titles won, thus winning over 40% of ozfortress league titles.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20190109053433/http://www.ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=28089 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress league title history]</ref>

===ozfc: the ozfortress cup===
'''2008 - 2013''' 
The ozfortress cup was a double elimination exhibition competition. The cup had 16 slots, 12 of which were occupied by the top 12 teams of the year. The remaining 4 slots were claimed as eight 'wildcards' who competed with each other in a qualifier format.

The ozfortress cup was the first non-Ultiduo ozfortress ''Team Fortress 2'' competition to be run. The first OZFC began on the 10th of January, 2008 in an 8v8 format.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080118012240/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25201 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfc1 - draw and points]</ref>

===OWL: the ozfortress Winter League===
[[File:Owl 14.png|thumb|600px|The banner for the final OWL season before the transfer to OZF. OWL 14 came to a close in September of 2015.]]
'''2009 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress winter league was the initial premier competition series run by ozfortress. It was a seasonal, round-robin [[6v6]] invitational that ran approximately twice a year. Teams were split into skill based divisions, from Division 1 or Premier down to Division 6. However, the number of divisions often varied between seasons depending on the number of teams registered. A typical competition ran over 10 weeks of matches and teams were invited to apply for selection before the competition began.

OWL was later phased out in favour of the ozfortress seasonal league following OWL 14 in early 2016. Recently however, the ozfortress Winter League has made a comeback in the form of OWL 2021, running alongside the existing OZF seasonal league.

===C4C: Capping for a Cause===
'''2010 - ~2012-13''' 
Capping for a Cause (stylised as '''Capping 4 a Cause''', or '''C4C''') was a 16 team open double-elimination competition run three times from 2010 to 2012. C4C aimed to raise funds for a named charity. Teams were asked to 'buy' their seeding by donating to the charity, where the highest seeds were given to the highest donating teams, providing them with a scheduling advantage throughout the tournament. Over the three iterations of C4C, over $22,000 AUD was raised for charities. These included the Australian Cancer Research Foundation, BeyondBlue and the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.

6v6

2024-02-21T14:02:35Z

Lofty: marked outdated

{{stub}}
{{outdated}}
[[File:ETF2L first place medal.png|thumb|200px]right|[[ETF2L]] medal awarded to players finishing in first place]]

'''6v6''' is the most common competitive format played in Team Fortress 2, and is often viewed as the 'default' format. It is played with 6 players per team, with class limits and weapons bans. The weapon bans and maps played vary depending on the region, league, or season.

== History ==
Since the beginning of the ''Team Fortress 2'' competitive scene, many experiments with different formats were made including 6v6 and 8v8. 6v6 quickly stuck and today is widely accepted as the staple competitive format. It was the result of a lot of experimentation with class limits, unlocks and maps. It started out without enforced class limits, eventually the class limits got stricter(i.e. Demoman was limited to 1 per team) and the map pools became more refined. This culminated in the refined, fast-paced and interesting metagame played today.

== Format ==
=== Classes ===
6v6 is played with six players on each team.

The common class format is:
* 1 [[Medic (6v6)| Medic]]
* 1 [[Demoman (6v6)| Demoman]]
* 2 [[Soldier (6v6)| Soldiers]]
* 2 [[Scout (6v6)|Scouts]]

This is also commonly referred to as the '''''"Cookie Cutter"''''' lineup, as it's the most versatile lineup which balances both mobility and damage output. Most classes have classlimits of 2, but Demoman and Medic always have classlimits of 1, with other classes such as heavy and engineer also being limited to 1 depending on the league ruleset.

==== Primary Classes ====
Standard play involves a team of two Scouts, two Soldiers, one Demoman, and one Medic. The Demoman is usually the damage dealer and the most important class following the medic. The scouts play similar roles, but one is usually supposed to be more passive than the other. The soldiers play completely different roles, the [[Pocket]] Soldier protects the medic and spearheads pushes, while the [[Roaming Soldier|Roaming]] Soldier helps the scouts and is usually the first player to initiate, or to create a window of opportunity for his team.

==== Offclasses ====
In some cases, a team swaps a class of the ''cookie cutter'' lineup for a utility class, in order to create an advantage for your team, to help in a defensive situation or even to break a stalemate. This is called offclassing. A scout or the roaming soldier generally switches, which allows classes such as [[Sniper]], [[Spy]], [[Engineer]], [[Heavy]], or [[Pyro]] to be utilized. In general, offclassing means trading off the mobility of the standard cookie cutter lineup for damage or positional advantage or even a suprise effect.

Snipers and Spies are often referred to as "pick" classes, as their different playstyles and ability to 1-hit kill any class are very valuable when attempting to gain an advantage. Pyro, Heavy and Engineer are often called "defense" classes as they trade the mobility of one of the scouts or soldier, for better area control and/or damage output.

Sniper is perhaps the most common offclass, and a scout is the most common offclasser.

== Game Modes ==
In 6v6, a few different map types are played.

=== Control Points ===
The most common is [[5CP]], or "5 Control Points", which requires a team to control all five control points in a map in order to win the round. Common 5CP maps include [[cp_granary]], [[cp_badlands]] and [[cp_process]].

=== King of the Hill ===
[[KOTH]], or "King of the Hill", is a game mode where teams fight for control of one central control point in a race against the clock. The only widespread koth map currently used for 6v6 is [[koth_pro_viaduct]].

=== Attack/Defend ===
[[A/D]], or "Attack/Defend", are maps which use a stopwatch to time the attacking team in trying to capture all of the defending team's control points. The defending team then switches to the attacking team and tries to beat the opposing team's time. The only 2 common attack/defense maps are cp_gravelpit and cp_edifice.

=== Capture the Flag ===
[[CTF]], or "Capture the Flag", are maps where a team has to capture the intel from the enemy base and take it to your own base to score a point. This gamemode is very rarely played in 6s and most leagues have dropped CTF maps of their map pool. One of the most famous 6v6 CTF maps is Turbine Pro.

Medic

2024-02-21T14:00:07Z

Lofty: updated some ancient ass medic players

{{outdated}}
[[File:MedicIcon.png|200px|right|link=http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Medic]]
Medic is a maniacal German scientist who is capable of healing his teammates, allowing them to remain in combat significantly longer. By healing them, he also charges up his signature ability, ÜberCharge, which makes Medic and a teammate invulnerable to all damage for a few seconds. Regardless of competitive format, Medic is the core of his team; if he dies, the rest of his team will have a hard time regaining health. In the standard [[6v6]] format, he is a key component of his team's combo, along with the Pocket [[Soldier]] and Pocket [[Scout]]. In [[Highlander]], the combo usually consists of Medic, [[Heavy]], and [[Demoman]]. Thanks to his Medigun's ability to lock onto they player he is healing, Medic does not need to focus on aim, and may be picked as his team's [[caller]]. However, in higher-level play, he cannot be expected to keep track of all enemy players, making main-calling Medics less common. Medic's primary responsibilities are to keep his team alive and overhealed, time and lead pushes with his ÜberCharge, and mentally track enemy ÜberCharge. Surfing damage, effective positioning, and good aim are required for Medics at high levels of play.

==6v6==
{{main|Medic (6v6)}}

In the standard [[6v6]] format, each team can only have one Medic at any given moment, and with good reason.

'''Medic''' is a vital part of any [[6v6]] team; his ability to grant invulnerability or guaranteed critical hits to teammates is invaluable for pushes from point to point or for saving teammates. However, he is weak in combat, often making him the most targeted player by the enemy team. If a team loses their Medic they lose the ability to heal effectively, and will often be pushed back to another point or even lose the game. As Medic's ÜberCharge is often the deciding factor of a match, he will usually be protected well by the pocket [[Scout]], who may escort Medic to a health pack if he is in danger. Medic will usually communicate his ÜberCharge percentage as well as their position to their team so they can prepare pushes and defenses, and be ready for an enemy push.

If Medic's team dies, he may be forced to use his ÜberCharge to escape - while not optimal, this is preferable to dying with a full charge; the phrase ''''Pop it, don't drop it'''' is used to emphasize this.

In [[6v6]] leagues, the [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Vaccinator Vaccinator] and [https://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Quick-Fix Quick-Fix] are banned. The most commonly used Medigun in this format is the stock [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Medigun Medigun], though the [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Kritzkrieg Kritzkrieg] may also be used to outpace the enemy Medic and kill him before he can activate his own ÜberCharge.

'''Well-known 6v6 Medics include:'''
* [[hubida]] - ([[RGL]])
* [[zilly]] - ([[RGL]])
* [[auto]] - ([[ETF2L]])
* [[juxta]] - ([[ETF2L]])
* [[lau]] - ([[ozfortress]])

==Highlander==
{{main|Medic (Highlander)}}

Medic has the same role as he does in 6v6; healing his teammates and using his ÜberCharge to turn the tide of a match. Unlike 6v6 games, he is usually protected by Heavy and Demoman as his bodyguards, and he tends to be more cautious and take fewer risks in order to avoid being killed by Spy and Sniper, classes not normally run in 6v6.

==Weapons==
=== Primary ===
{{Class Weapon Table Header}}

|description = The '''Syringe Gun''' is Medic's default primary, shooting syringes, or "needles" at its target. The syringes fired are projectiles, which means that Medic will have to lead his target in order to hit them consistently. While it deals respectable damage when aimed properly, Medic's main job is to heal his teammates, not deal damage. As such, the stock Syringe Gun sees no use in serious games.

|description = The '''Overdose''' is an unlockable primary that functions similarly to the stock Syringe Gun, but deals less damage than stock. When deployed, the weapon grants Medic a moderate movement speed bonus depending on his ÜberCharge meter. Out of spawn, it grants no benefit, but at full ÜberCharge, it makes Medic nearly as fast as Scout. While its utility may be situationally useful, the Overdose is outclassed by the Crusader's Crossbow, making it a rare sight in competitive games.

{{Class Weapon Table Row

|description = The '''Blutsauger''' functions near-identically to the stock Syringe Gun, but heals Medic by 3HP when he hits an enemy with the weapon. As a drawback, Medic's passive health regeneration is decreased by 2 HP/second. The weapon is typically used in casual lobbies when a Medic's team fails to protect him - in competitive games with competent players, it sees no serious use.

{{Class Weapon Table Row
|weaponname = Crusader's Crossbow
|link = Crusader's_Crossbow
|description = The '''Crusader's Crossbow''' is Medic's go-to primary. It functions like Pyro's flare guns, firing a single bolt every 1.6 seconds and reloading even when not active. At close range, the bolt deals 38 damage to enemies, which ramps up to 75 damage at long range. Shooting a teammate will heal them by 75 health at close range and ramp up to 150 health at long range, though it will not overheal. The weapon's ability to heal teammates at any range (possibly saving their life) is extremely powerful, and it is used almost exclusively in every competitive game. While it makes Medic nearly helpless when confronted by an enemy, a competent team will protect him, making its downside moot. If Medic's teammates have recently taken damage, the Crossbow's healing outclasses every Medigun, even at close range, and will build ÜberCharge as well.

|description = The '''Medi-Gun''' is Medic's default primary. Like most Mediguns, it heals 24-72HP per second (depending on how recently its target took damage) and will overheal them up to 150% of their max health. When healing damaged teammates, its ÜberCharge will be ready in 40 seconds, though its charge rate is cut in half for teammates already fully overhealed. Its ÜberCharge grants complete immunity from all damage for 8 seconds, though Medic and his teammate will still take knockback.

{{Class Weapon Table Row

|description = The '''Kritzkrieg's''' healing rate is identical to the stock Medi-gun. However, it charges its ÜberCharge 25% faster, for a minimum charge time of 32 seconds. When deployed, it grants Medic's teammates guaranteed critical hits for 8 seconds, which can shred an unprepared team. However, it grants no damage resistance - if the enemy team can react quickly, they may be able to kill Medic, bringing the charge to a halt. Due to its fast charge rate, however, the Kritzkrieg is usually used when at an Über disadvantage or on small maps, such as King of the Hill.

{{Class Weapon Table Row
|weaponname = Quick-Fix
|description = The '''Quick-Fix''' heals teammates by 33.6HP/second when in combat, and 100.8HP/second when out of combat, but can only overheal teammates to 125% of their max health. Its ÜberCharge grants immunity to knockback and slowness, triples its healing rate, and heals Medic as well, making it difficult (but not impossible) for the enemy team to kill him. If Medic's patient blast jumps or shield charges, Medic will have the same force applied to him, allowing Soldiers and Demomen to carry Medic along during rollouts.

In Highlander mode, the Quick-Fix sees relatively little use, as it cannot save Medic and his teammate from more than 100 damage per second. However, when there isn't enough time build a normal ÜberCharge, or when Medic needs to deliver healing to teammates near the objective, he may equip it.

In 6v6, the Quick-Fix is banned due to the relative lack of players who can kill Medic during an ÜberCharge, especially Sniper and Spy.

While it can barely overheal (66% overheal rate penalty), it charges incredibly quickly when healing damaged targets, with a minimum charge time of 24 seconds. It grants a passive 10% damage resistance to either bullets, explosives, or fire to Medic and a teammate while healing. It also charges significantly slower on overhealed teammates. Deploying its ÜberCharge consumes 25% of Medic's ÜberCharge meter and grants him and his teammate a 75% damage resistance to either bullets, explosives, or fire, as well as negating critical hits.

The Vaccinator is most powerful when fighting a single enemy, especially Heavy, Demoman, Scout or Sniper, as they only have access to a single damage type. It sees little use in Highlander Mode, where the enemy team has access to bullets, explosives, and fire, forcing Medic to use multiple ÜberCharges at once and effectively reducing his ÜberCharge time from 10 seconds to 3-5 seconds.

In 6v6, the weapon is banned, as the enemy team generally only has access to bullets and explosives, and the relative lack of players makes it less likely for Medic and his combo to encounter both types of damage simultaneously. This makes it incredibly difficult to deal any meaningful amount of damage to Medic or his combo.

Scout

Lofty: marked outdated, will come back later

{{outdated}}
[[File:ScoutIcon.png|200px|right|link=http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Scout]]

The '''Scout''' has the greatest mobility of all the TF2 classes; two jumps and an impressive 133% movement speed makes him a challenge to track down and even to kill once he is found. The Scout carries a [[Scattergun]], which deals massive damage to an opponent at close range. With his high movement speed, a Scout has no trouble getting into close-combat with his enemies; his greatest challenge is staying alive long enough to utilize his high damage. The Scout has only 125 base health, tied for the least out of all the classes along with the [[Engineer]], [[Sniper]] and [[Spy]].

==6v6==
{{main|Scout (6v6)}}

The Scout is a highly mobile "clean up" class, used to capture points and move in and out of fights to deal and avoid as much damage as possible. A competent Scout must successfully capture points, control the [[Glossary#Flank|flank]], and be able to finish off enemies weakened by power classes ([[Soldier]] and [[Demoman]]). He is also often the best candidates for off-classing, depending on the situation. Scout's most effective tactic is to utilize his high speed to ambush enemy players to kill them before they are able to react. During a mid-fight, at least one Scout should stay alive; losing both of its most mobile players can spell disaster for a team. The Scout should aim to die as little as possible, as a longer living scout has a higher impact.

In the standard 6v6 lineup, each team will have 2 Scouts, falling into one of two common roles: the Flank Scout and the Pocket Scout. The Flank Scout is a part of the [[Glossary#Flank|flank]], and often fights alongside the [[Roaming Soldier]]. His main job is to relay information to his team and assist the Roamer. Together, they watch the flank to prevent enemies from attacking the Combo. Should an opportunity present itself, they can attack the enemy Combo and create distractions for their own team to push. The Pocket Scout travels with the Combo, protects his teammates (especially the [[Medic]]), and finishes off enemies weakened by the [[Demoman]] or the Pocket Soldier. One of his main targets is the "bombing soldier" - an enemy Roamer jumping in to kill the Medic. The Pocket Scout is the primary candidate to maincall due to his mobility and high damage.

==Highlander==
{{main|Scout (Highlander)}}

Scout's role is far more limited in Highlander, as his movement is significantly restricted by two full-auto high-damage-per-second classes: Heavy and Engineer. As such, Scout is used more often as a utility class, helping the team by being on the flank, capturing points and objectives, and sometimes following up on damage dealt by the combo. He can also be used to harass certain classes, such as Snipers. Scout is often unable to contribute effectively in game modes that force players together (such Payload and Attack/Defend) due to his lack of splash damage, but can be deadly on certain King of the Hill maps with multiple flank routes, which allows him to pick off isolated enemies one by one.

Highlander leagues allow a greater variety of Scout weapons than 6v6 leagues do, which allows for more varied strategies. Scout's role can be enhanced by many of his unlocks: Mad Milk increases his team's survivability during pushes; Bonk! Atomic Punch allows him to distract the enemy team and kite Sentry Gun fire. As long as Scout stays alive and aware, opportunities to flank and ambush will still present themselves.

|description = The '''Baby Face's Blaster''' is arguably the worst Scout primary for competitive play. It allows the Scout to build a "Boost" meter by dealing damage. At high Boost levels, he moves much faster, but this advantage is offset by the weapon's reduced clip size. At low Boost, he moves significantly slower than with the stock Scattergun. Taking damage or double jumping lowers Boost drastically, forcing the Scout to play extremely passively in order to utilize the weapon's only benefit. As Scout's main responsibility is to flank and ambush the enemy team with his high mobility, this weapon often hampers his effectiveness rather than enhancing it.

The weapon's unique knockback ability can allow Scout to position himself in unexpected places by increasing his effective jump height.

It also has a nearly-useless melee-ranged knockback ability. While the Shortstop fires twice as fast as the default Scattergun, it takes thrice the time to reload, which leaves him helpless for much longer. However, the weapon's biggest downfall is in its reduced damage; it only fires four pellets per shot, significantly reducing Scout's firepower at close range and allowing enemies more time to fight back.

Upon activating its 'Hype' mechanic, it grants five double jumps, allowing Scout to dodge attacks much more easily. Its stellar damage and great evasion boost make a good Scout extremely difficult to fight against; as such, it is banned in many competitive leagues.

Atomic Punch is most often used in Highlander (9v9) to get behind the enemy team, especially when there are no flank routes available. Bonk! can also be used to distract the enemy team and give the other members of a team an opening to push or get an advantage. One of its most common uses is to kite a Sentry Gun's fire, giving the rest of Scout's team time to destroy it.

All players who attack an enemy under this debuff will heal 60% of the damage they deal, though they will not gain overheal. Mad Milk is most often used in Highlander, where Scout's movement is harshly restricted and his damage output less vital. Thanks to its area-of-effect nature, it is most effective on KOTH and Attack/Defense maps; players are forced to group together, allowing Scout to debuff multiple enemies at once. In a pinch, Mad Milk can also be used to extinguish teammates, reducing its cooldown time by 4 seconds. Otherwise, it takes 20 seconds to recharge.

This comes at a cost of a reduced clip size, giving Scout only 9 shots before he must reload. It is most useful when retreating, as the minor health regeneration it grants helps to negate some of the damage Scout will likely take.

If Scout misses, however, he will damage himself for 18 direct damage and 40 bleed damage. As such, it is unreliable in combat.

However, if Scout hits another enemy, the "marked-for-death" effect will be transferred away from the first enemy to the one he just attacked. The weapon itself will crit whenever it should normally mini-crit, dealing 27 damage. Using this weapon is a gamble; Scout must get within melee range of an enemy to deal scratch damage, then retreat and use his other weapons to kill him, or rely on his team to follow up.

Soldier

2024-02-21T13:52:00Z

Lofty: minor grammer + marked outdated.

{{outdated}}
[[File:SoldierIcon.png|200px|right|link=http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Soldier]]

As a good all-around combat class, '''Soldier''' is a class played in both 6v6 and Highlander. His high adaptability and mobility makes him vital on any 6v6 team, though his mobility comes at the expense of some health, via rocket jumping. When his rocket jumping is restricted by low health or cramped environments, he has the second slowest ground speed behind the [[Heavy]]. His weapon of choice is the [[Rocket Launcher]], a projectile weapon with good splash damage and range, and he boasts the second highest base health in the game (200).

==6v6==
{{Main|Soldier (6v6)}}

In 6v6, each Soldier will usually fulfill one of two main roles: [[Pocket|"Pocket"]] Soldier and [[Roaming Soldier|"Roaming"]] Soldier. The Pocket Soldier focuses on defending the team's [[Medic]], using his high health to block damage intended for the Medic, gain advantageous positions during confrontations, and lead team pushes. The Roaming Soldier plays a fundamentally different role, and is the offense to the Pocket Soldier's defense. Instead of protecting his team, he controls the flank, utilizing his high mobility and health to rocket jump around the map. His job is to set up advantageous battles for his team by creating distractions or killing key targets.

===Pocket Soldier===

The most basic role of the Pocket Soldier is keeping his team's Medic alive. The Pocket along with the Medic and [[Demoman]] form the core "combo" of any 6v6 team. He and Demoman are often the recipients of an [[ÜberCharge]], allowing him to push forward with no fear of damage. Though he is often the third most important pick behind the Medic and Demoman, his massive health pool makes killing him difficult. The standard - "meta" - loadout for the Pocket Soldier is the [[Rocket Launcher]]/[[Original]], the [[Shotgun]] and the [[Escape Plan]]. While the [[Gunboats]] does allow him increased mobility during a battle, it reduces his ability to follow up after spending his Rocket Launcher ammo, making it fairly situational.

===Roaming Soldier===

The [[Roaming Soldier]]'s main job is to help one of the [[Scout|Scouts]] on the flank, and create weaknesses in the enemy combo so that his own combo can follow up. He is considered the most "disposable" unit of the team, and will often launch suicide attacks against the enemy combo in an attempt to force the enemy Medic to use his Übercharge - or kill him outright. In order to accomplish this, he must know all the nuances of a map - hiding spots, flanks, rocket-jumping patterns. By utilizing this knowledge, he can remain undetected or out-of-range until an opportunity presents itself. Even if he does not find a chance to attack, he can still relay information back to his team, who can exploit this knowledge to gain an advantage. To maximize his mobility while retaining his firepower, the most common loadout for a Roaming Soldier is the Rocket Launcher/Original, the Gunboats and the Escape Plan.

In higher levels of play, the Pocket Soldier will usually be the main caller; he will lead team plays such as pushes, retreats, ambushes, and even directing ÜberCharges.

==Highlander==
{{Main|Soldier (Highlander)}}

In Highlander, there is only one Soldier on each team. He often functions like a Roaming Soldier would in 6v6. As such, many 6v6 Roamer strategies can be applied to Highlander as well. Often used as a mobile pick class, he is mostly run with Gunboats and the stock Rocket Launcher/Original, Black Box, or Direct Hit. A well-coordinated team can organize pick classes to work together for a common goal, like forcing a Medic to use his [[ÜberCharge]] or destroying an Engineer nest. In most maps, Soldier is used to control the flank; his job is to prevent enemies from ambushing his team, or ambushing the enemy himself. Some teams will place Soldier closer to his team's combo so that he can defend them with his splash damage.

As a drawback, the projectiles fired by this weapon deal 15% less damage and have a 10% smaller explosion radius. While rocket jumping, its attack speed is increased by 65%, allowing Soldier to rain explosives down on his enemies. He must aim precisely during an "air strike," however - his rockets' blast radius is further reduced by 20% while rocket jumping.

To compensate for this increased survivability, his clip size is reduced, leaving him with only 3 rockets. In order to offset this downside, Soldier may choose to equip his stock shotgun in case he fails to kill his enemies before running out of ammo.

The Black Box is most often used by a Roamer attempting to create a distraction rather than kill enemies, especially in Highlander. First popularized by Vhalin, the Black Box can be used effectively to increase survivability for Highlander Soldiers.

|description = The '''Beggar's Bazooka''' is arguably the most unique rocket launcher out of Soldier's arsenal. Instead of firing rockets and then reloading, Soldier must load up to three rockets, then fire. Loading additional rockets will cause the launcher to overload, damaging Soldier and any enemies next to him. Soldier can intentionally overload, and use the damage to rocket jump across large areas extremely quickly. It cannot be used to fly across the map to bomb enemies, however - each overload jump removes a rocket from Soldier's clip, and its reduced blast radius prevents him from shredding the enemy combo. It also cannot be used at mid-to-long range, as its random projectile deviation makes it highly inaccurate at this range. The Beggar's Bazooka can be extremely powerful when holding a choke point, but is inferior to the stock launcher in most situations.

In the standard 6v6 format, however, Engineer is rarely run outside of last point holds, and Medics almost always run the stock Medi-Gun, making the Cow Mangler a direct upgrade to the stock Rocket Launcher in nearly all situations. As a result, this weapon is banned in most 6v6 leagues. In Highlander, it can be used to disable a Sentry, allowing Soldier's teammates to follow up without being killed.

|description = The '''Direct Hit''' is a primary that rewards precise aim due and punishes inaccurate shots with its reduced spread and increased damage. While it can no longer be used to damage multiple enemies, it can destroy any Engineer buildings in two hits, and mini-crits blast-jumping enemies. The projectiles travel 80% faster and do 25% more damage, but have a -70% reduction in explosion radius.

|description = The '''Liberty Launcher''' fires faster rockets, has an extra rocket in its clip, and reduces self-damage by 25%, but deals 25% less damage. While the extra projectile speed and clip size make it excellent for catching fast-moving Scouts, and the reduced self-damage can be combined with Gunboats for extremely low Health costs on rocket jumps, its reduced base damage allows enemies more time to retreat or counter-attack. While it deals respectable damage, the stock Rocket Launcher grants Soldier much greater firepower, making the Liberty Launcher a rare sight in competitive games.

|description = Some consider the '''Original''' to be a reskin of the '''Rocket Launcher'''. Others argue that the fact that it fires down the player's crosshair (as opposed to other weapons firing from the side of the crosshair) makes it more useful the stock launcher in most situations. It was banned from use in the early days of leagues such as [[ETF2L]], which only allowed the weapon [[ETF2L 6v6 Season 12|after Season 11]]. Aside from the mechanical difference in rocket jumping, there isn't much difference between the Original and stock launcher, making these weapons mostly interchangeable.

|description = The '''B.A.S.E. Jumper''' deploys a parachute when attempting to jump while midair. It allows Soldier to slowly glide to the ground, which can negate fall damage, but makes him extremely vulnerable to attacks, as its 50% reduced air control prevents him from dodging attacks while airborne.

|description = When activated, the '''Battalions Backup''' provides a defensive boost to Soldier and all nearby teammates, with even greater resistance to Sentry Guns. It completely negates the effects of a [[Kritzkrieg]] ÜberCharge, blocks critical hits, and grants Soldier 20 extra points of max health. The buff, which requires 600 points of damage to charge, allows Soldier to protect his team during pushes and retreats, but shares a weakness with the other banners: Soldier loses his Shotgun, preventing him from following up after running out of rockets. As Soldier's team size increases, his buff becomes more powerful - as such, it is rarely run in 6s. In Highlander, it can be used for both offensive pushes and defensive holds.

|description = The '''Buff Banner''' grants Soldier and nearby teammates mini-crits. It is not widely used in sixes due to requiring Soldier to deal 600 points of damage to charge, but is sometimes used in the slower-paced Highlander. It can be useful during team pushes, or to halt an enemy push, but replaces Soldier's shotgun, reducing his staying power. While rarely used in 6s, it can be used to great effect in Highlander, especially during defensive holds; Soldier and Demoman can use the mini-crits to quickly force enemies off the objective.

|description = The '''Concheror''', requires 20% less damage to charge than the other banners, When activated, it provides a speed boost and heals Soldier and his teammates by 35% of damage dealt. When equipped, Soldier gains passive health regeneration, which starts at 1 HP/second increases to 4 HP/second if he avoids taking damage for a while. The buff, which requires only 480 points of damage to charge, is extremely useful for improving a team's survivability during a push or hold, but like the other banners, denies Soldier use of his Shotgun. In Highlander, it can be used similarly to the Battalion's Backup, though its protection is less potent than its counterpart.

|description = The '''Gunboats''' reduce health lost from rocket jumps by 60%, at the cost of Soldier's Shotgun. The reduced rocket jumping damage allows Soldier to [[bomb]] enemies with a far lower health cost, making it the go-to Secondary for Roaming Soldiers in 6v6 and for many Soldiers in Highlander.

|description = The '''Mantreads''' give the Soldier a passive 75% knockback resistance, the ability to deal 3x falling damage to enemies he lands on, and 200% more air control. This weapon is rarely used in competitive play, as the minor increase in movement control is almost never worth losing the Shotgun or Gunboats.

|description = The '''Reserve Shooter''' deals mini-crits to airborne enemies. It has 4 shots in its clip, and deploys 15% faster. While the stock Shotgun is usually superior for the Pocket Soldier, the Reserve Shooter's stellar damage against explosive-launched opponents makes it extremely powerful for a Roamer to follow up with after bombing the enemy combo, as staying power is less of an issue. As such, this weapon is banned in most 6v6 leagues. In Highlander, Soldier's mobility is greatly restricted by Engineer and Heavy, so the weapon remains whitelisted.

|description = The '''Righteous Bison''' functions as an extremely situational alternative to the Shotgun that can only be used effectively when spamming through a choke point. It has four shots in its clip, reloads faster, and fires a single piercing energy bolt. While it can hit multiple opponents, enemies tend to spread out to avoid Soldier's splash damage, and the Bison projectile is slow and easy to dodge. This weapon is almost never seen in competitive matches, as it its damage output is severely lacking.

|description = The '''Panic Attack''' is a community-created primary weapon for the Engineer, and a secondary weapon for the [[Soldier]], [[Pyro]], and [[Heavy]].
The Panic attack has a straight 20% damage penalty from the stock shotgun, but it fires 50% more bullets per shot, and deploys 50% faster. At point-blank range, it deals more damage than the stock shotgun, but even at short-to-mid range, it is often weaker, thanks to its reduced accuracy. This weapon excels at clearing out enemies at point-blank range, and can be used to follow up on Rocket Launcher damage near-instantly. However, it is nearly useless at medium range, leaving Soldier vulnerable to Scouts and Demomen, who can stay out of his effective range and attack with little threat of retaliation.

|description = Like most stock weapons, the '''Shovel''' deals 65 damage every 0.8 seconds, allowing Soldier to do moderate damage when out of ammo. In competitive games, however, melee weapons are almost never used to deal damage, as players will almost always be able to shoot down a melee attacker before he can reach his target. Thus, utility weapons are almost always preferred over straight damage. As the Shovel has no special qualities, it is never used in serious games.

|description = The '''Disciplinary Action''' is a melee weapon used as a [[rollout]] tool for Highlander play. It deals 25% less damage, but has a greatly increased melee range, making it arguably better than the stock Shovel in a fight. When Soldier hits a teammate with this weapon, both he and his teammate gain a significant speed boost for a few seconds. It is extremely powerful in getting teammates to the front lines, and thus is banned in most 6v6 leagues. In Highlander leagues, however, it is outclassed by Engineer's Teleporter, so it remains whitelisted.

|rglhl = true
|description = The '''Equalizer''' becomes more powerful as Soldier's health decreases. However, it sees little use, as melee weapons are ineffective in a fight - Soldier will almost always be killed before he can enter melee range. While it can be used to build ÜberCharge with a Medic, the Escape Plan can do the same, and is useful in more situations than the Equalizer.

|description = When deployed, the '''Escape Plan''' increases Soldier's speed as he takes damage. The lower his health is, the faster Soldier will run; at 40 health and below, he becomes almost as fast as a Scout. As a downside, the weapon reduces Medic's healing (both Medi-Guns and Crossbow) by 90% while active, and all incoming attacks will mini-crit. This weapon is especially useful to flee from fights when Soldier has open ground to run through, and is the most common melee choice for all [[6v6]] Soldiers. Additionally, the increased movement speed paired with Soldier's ability to damage himself allows him to perform certain rollouts much faster.

|description = '''The Half-Zatoichi''' heals Soldier by 100 health on kill, possibly overhealing him, but if he deploys and holsters it without landing a kill, he will lose 50 health. If holstering the weapon would kill him, Soldier will be unable to do so. As such, the Half-Zatoichi is rarely used in 6v6, but is sometimes equipped by roaming Highlander Soldiers to increase survivability.

|etf2lhl = true
|rgl6s = true
|rglhl = true
|description = The '''Market Gardener''' is used as a pick weapon, most often by Roaming Soldiers. If Soldier hits an enemy while airborne from a blast jump, he will deal a critical hit. This makes it a high-risk, high-reward weapon. If Soldier lands a hit on the enemy Medic, he is guaranteed a kill, as opposed to simply forcing the Medic to use his ÜberCharge. If Soldier misses, he will die and accomplish nothing. The Market Gardener is far less popular than the Escape Plan; unless Soldier can remain undetected until the last second, he will almost certainly be shot down by the enemy combo before reaching his target.

|description = The '''Pain Train''' increases the user's capture rate by 1 (from 1x to 2x), at the cost of a 10% bullet damage vulnerability. In the standard 6v6 format, Demoman often equips the Pain Train in order to capture points faster, though Soldier can also do so to benefit his team.

Trickstabs

2023-12-26T14:49:37Z

Lofty: /* List of Trickstabs */ Removed the "sentry stab section" given it is just a variation of a jumpstab, have added a mention in the jumpstap section +grammar fixes. Also removed the "best stab ever" quote because there is no indication who valles is/was feel free to re-add with something like "-Valles, ETF2L prem spy" or whatever "

Trickstabs are special maneuvers used by [[Spy|Spies]] to backstab enemies that know they are a spy. There are several trickstabs that help achieve this goal. While trickstabs may be cool and flashy, they should only be used as a last resort, due to their reliance on the target failing to prepare for them.
==Tricking the Opponent==
Trickstabs are usually used only - and are most effective as - a last resort: they only work when the enemy is not seeing them coming, and failing the first try greatly reduces the chances of succeeding on subsequent trickstabs. Like a magician, the spy should pull the enemy's attention away from the trickstab. [[Revolver|Revolvers]] are often used for this: shooting the enemy may make him think that the spy is not trying to use his [[Knife|knife]] at all. Being at low health also helps: players usually relax when they know that they only need a couple shots or less to kill their enemy.

==List of Trickstabs==
===Stairstab===
When a Spy goes up an incline with someone chasing him, he can crouchjump over the target's head to get behind and land a stab. The method for this is generally to actually land ON the person whom they wish to stab's right or left shoulder while crouching, then turning left or right (turn left if on their right shoulder, and vice versa), and stabbing. Pioneered by [https://www.youtube.com/user/SubtIeArt SubtleArt], the stairstab rewards Spies who are aware of the map and their surroundings, although Stairstabs overall are usually not very effective in a competitive game, seeing as most players know better than to fall for such a trick.

===Jumpstab/Rampstab===
Like a stairstab, but instead of inclines, which are commonly used and thus easy to predict, the Spy jumps on props such as barrels, railings, and sentry guns to get a height boost for the stab. Even the smallest height difference allows for a rampstab. For example, jumping onto an Engineer's teleporter provides enough extra height to land a successful rampstab. These stabs work much better than stairstabs, because even experienced players won't necessarily expect a spy to be able to jump over them if not on an obvious incline.

===Ghost Stab===
If someone is aware of the jumpstab, jump on their heads, and when they rotate 180 degrees to "catch" you, strafe the other way and stab them.

===Understab===
The Spy leads someone off the high ground, then strafes under and stabs the target. Can also be done against explosive jumpers. This can be done because the angle for a successful backstab is exactly 180 degrees, no matter the height. The concept for this is the same as the stairstab, except in reverse.

===Cornerstab===
The Spy leads someone around a corner, then doubles back around the corner to get at their side and stabs them. A beginner's mistake in this trickstab is not waiting long enough. Depending on the target and on how far away they are from the corner the spy leads them around, it may take from immediately to a few seconds. The rule of thumb is to wait about one second unless they are practically right behind the spy.

===Blindstab===
Same as a Stairstab or Jumpstab, but the Spy leads the target around a corner as well, which makes the target unable to see the Spy jumping at him. Due to the threat of this, the target may wait around the corner to kill the Spy, enabling him to escape.

===Matador Stab===
The Spy strafes one way to draw the target into looking that way to not expose his backstab radius, then strafes the other way and stabs him. The concept of this is similar to a cornerstab. Oftentimes, one can imagine this as a cornerstab without a corner. The spy first strafes right around their imaginary corner, then back.

===SwitchStab===
Similar to a Matador, but uses the forward and backward keys to pull it off. The Spy pretends to walk past the target (W) only to move back (S) as the enemy turns to face where they were and score the stab.

===Reverse-Matador Stab===
When the target is chasing from behind, the Spy may turn around and strafe in one direction then strafe the opposing direction for the stab, similar to a normal matador. There are a multitude of variations however turning around quickly and strafing the opposite way is the most common form. The use for this is commonly against chasing opponents.

===Drop Stab===
Dropping from a great height and if needed airstrafing to get behind the target and stab them before touching the ground. In contrast to the unreliability of most trickstabs, this is the hardest kind of stab to see coming (and the only way to work also). This stab is best done from a reasonably high height, for example, dropping from badwaters' roof into the cart capturing the 2nd point. This is perhaps the most reliable kind of trickstab, due to its nature which means that it is hard for it to be seen ahead of time.

This stab can be practiced on tr_walkway_rc2.

===Circle Strafe Stab===
The process of strafing in a way to counter the opponents strafe, usually to cut off their sideways strafe however it can extend into a backpedal stab. An enemy that is strafing would not be able to be stabbed by a Matador due to them using a strafe key as when using a strafe key the player's movement is pulling more sideways and away from the spy as well as their aim having to move less than normal. The point of Circle Strafing is to counter the opponents strafes instead of attempting a matador in which would fail.

===Breast Milk Stab===
A deprecated fad term for approaching a stab from above an enemy at a 10 - 20 degree angle. Initially proposed by the spy "tf2klown" in 2012 as a joke, the term picked up popularity in 2019 and 2020 due to consistent references by influential spies such as swipez referencing it in both his discord server and in several (now deleted) short videos. The term had multiple interpretations due to its nature as a prevalent joke fad name, but the general consensus was that this stab referred to a quick and shallow surf stab.

It was also sometimes used to describe a "telestab" because the telestab created a similarly low angle of approach, however it more commonly referred to a surfs rather than simple jumps because of the former's rarity and specialty. Upon the trend's end in late 2021, the term was eventually dropped in favor of "shallow surf" or just simply calling the stab a "surfstab".

===Moonwalk Stab===
An obscure stab made by CulRulDud, it involves the Spy being chased by a target. As the Spy pretends to run away, quickly start going back while strafing either left or right towards the chasing target and catch them off guard. Works well against Scouts and Spies.

===Backpedal Stab===
If a target is backpedalling using the backward key, the Spy can strafe towards and stick to them. By strafing and not backpedalling, the Spy keeps his running speed while the target who is backpedalling loses their speed. Due to their adjustments, they will automatically look away from the Spy and expose their backs. This stab will almost always look like a facestab on the target side.

These stabs work much better than stairstabs, because even experienced players won't necessarily expect a spy to be able to jump over them if not on an obvious incline.

===Ghost Stab===
If someone is aware of the jumpstab, jump on their heads, and when they rotate 180 degrees to "catch" you, strafe the other way and stab them.
===Understab===
The Spy leads someone off the high ground, then strafes under and stabs the target. Can also be done against explosive jumpers. This can be done because the angle for a successful backstab is exactly 180 degrees, no matter the height. The concept for this is the same as the stairstab, except in reverse.
===Cornerstab===
The Spy leads someone around a corner, then doubles back around the corner to get at their side and stabs them. A beginner's mistake in this trickstab is not waiting long enough. Depending on the target and on how far away they are from the corner the spy leads them around, it may take from immediately to a few seconds. The rule of thumb is to wait about one second unless they are practically right behind the spy.
===Blindstab===
Same as a Stairstab or Jumpstab, but the Spy leads the target around a corner as well, which makes the target unable to see the Spy jumping at him. Due to the threat of this, the target may wait around the corner to kill the Spy, enabling him to escape.
===Matador Stab===
The Spy strafes one way to draw the target into looking that way to not expose his backstab radius, then strafes the other way and stabs him. The concept of this is similar to a cornerstab. Oftentimes, one can imagine this as a cornerstab without a corner. The spy first strafes right around their imaginary corner, then back.
===SwitchStab===
Similar to a Matador, but uses the forward and backward keys to pull it off. The Spy pretends to walk past the target (W) only to move back (S) as the enemy turns to face where they were and score the stab.
===Reverse-Matador Stab===
When the target is chasing from behind, the Spy may turn around and strafe in one direction then strafe the opposing direction for the stab, similar to a normal matador. There are a multitude of variations however turning around quickly and strafing the opposite way is the most common form. The use for this is commonly against chasing opponents.

===Drop Stab===
Dropping from a great height and if needed airstrafing to get behind the target and stab them before touching the ground. In contrast to the unreliability of most trickstabs, this is the hardest kind of stab to see coming (and the only way to work also). This stab is best done from a reasonably high height, for example, dropping from badwaters' roof into the cart capturing the 2nd point. This is perhaps the most reliable kind of trickstab, due to its nature which means that it is hard for it to be seen ahead of time.

This stab can be practiced on tr_walkway_rc2.

===Circle Strafe Stab===
The process of strafing in a way to counter the opponents strafe, usually to cut off their sideways strafe however it can extend into a backpedal stab. An enemy that is strafing would not be able to be stabbed by a Matador due to them using a strafe key as when using a strafe key the player's movement is pulling more sideways and away from the spy as well as their aim having to move less than normal. The point of Circle Strafing is to counter the opponents strafes instead of attempting a matador in which would fail.

Best stab ever

===Breast Milk Stab===
A deprecated fad term for approaching a stab from above an enemy at a 10 - 20 degree angle. Initially proposed by the spy "tf2klown" in 2012 as a joke, the term picked up popularity in 2019 and 2020 due to consistent references by influential spies such as swipez referencing it in both his discord server and in several (now deleted) short videos. The term had multiple interpretations due to its nature as a prevalent joke fad name, but the general consensus was that this stab referred to a quick and shallow surf stab.

It was also sometimes used to describe a "telestab" because the telestab created a similarly low angle of approach, however it more commonly referred to a surfs rather than simple jumps because of the former's rarity and specialty. Upon the trend's end in late 2021, the term was eventually dropped in favor of "shallow surf" or just simply calling the stab a "surfstab".

===Moonwalk Stab===
An obscure stab made by CulRulDud, it involves the Spy being chased by a target. As the Spy pretends to run away, quickly start going back while strafing either left or right towards the chasing target and catch them off guard. Works well against Scouts and Spies.

===Backpedal Stab===
If a target is backpedalling using the backward key, the Spy can strafe towards and stick to them. By strafing and not backpedalling, the Spy keeps his running speed while the target who is backpedalling loses their speed. Due to their adjustments, they will automatically look away from the Spy and expose their backs. This stab will almost always look like a facestab on the target side.

'''FBTF''' (''Brazilian Federation of Team Fortress'', Portuguese: ''Federação Brasileira de Team Fortress'') is the organization created and maintained by the South-American community that has been organizing the biggest leagues and events of competitive Team Fortress 2 in South America.
The organization has brought to the community 16 seasons of the biggest Team Fortress 2 South-American League, the '''LBTF2''' (''Brazilian League of Team Fortress 2'', Portuguese: ''Liga Brasileira de Team Fortress 2''), besides all the smaller championships, like the four '''FBTF Cups''', the five leagues of '''LBTF2 - HL''' and the five seasons of '''CMC''' (''Custom Maps Championships'').

== History ==
The Federation first started in the competitive ''Quakeworld Team Fortress'' community in 1998 and was one of the biggest reasons of the mod Team Fortress becoming the most popular first-person shooter in Brazil at the time. In 1999 the Organization was closed due to lack of personnel to maintain it. Years later, it was recreated to save the QWTF Brazilian scene which was dying due to lack of leagues, but few months passed and Team Fortress 2 released, bringing the QWTF community and the '''FBTF''' (led by tdf, tbone, Verto and Sun War) to the new game.
In Team Fortress 2 the organization started to function as a ladder, but after some time, the teams were in need of a league so '''FBTF''' organized the first championship of competitive Team Fortress 2 in South-America, the '''Summer Challenge''', which happened between January and April of 2008. The '''Summer Challenge''' was the first and only championship that used the old 8v8 format in South-America. The first 6v6 tourney organized by '''FBTF''' was the '''Autumm Challenge''' that started right after the '''Summer Challenge''' and lasted 3 months. While players were busy with the '''Autumm Challenge''', '''FBTF''' launched its [http://www.teamfortress.com.br website], that, until today, concentrates most of the discussion about competitive TF2 in South America.

Before the first '''LBTF2''', '''FBTF''' organized 5 more championships (all in 2008): ''Half-dozen Challenge'' (Portuguese: ''Desafio da Meia-Dúzia''), ''Yeti Fortress'', ''Custom Maps Championship'', ''King of Freight'' and ''Granary Master Series''. The first season of the '''LBTF2''' started with its qualify in January 2009 and ended in June 2009 and it had the participation of 34 teams, it was the biggest championship so far in South America.

'''CEVO''' (''Cyber Evolution'') was a professional gaming website, which hosted leagues for various games, such as Counter-Strike, Dota 2 and Call of Duty, along with Team Fortress 2. It hosted multiple TF2 divisions from 2007, including CEVO-Professional, before shutting down and reopening again in 2013. '''CEVO''' ended support for Team Fortress 2 following 2014 due to low player numbers. It continued to host Counter-Strike leagues before it was bought out in 2017.

== Format ==
CEVO 6v6 consists of a 8-week season, with two matches per week. The league hosted two divisions, [[CEVO-Open]] and [[CEVO-Main]]<ref>http://cevo.com/event/tf2-6v6/news/170/team-fortress-2-season-4-information-2-000-in-cash-prizes</ref>.

In October 2013, CEVO announced that Season 3 would feature an inaugural Main division for teams making the Open playoffs in Season 2<ref>http://cevo.com/event/tf2-6v6/news/77/team-fortress-2-6v6-season-2-information-850-in-cash-prizes</ref>, but this did not occur until season 4, due to poor community involvement.

In Season 2, CEVO hosted a Highlander league with a ruleset based off of the [[UGC#Format|UGC ruleset]]. Due to poor participation, the Highlander league was dropped for Season 3.

In June 2014, CEVO announced that CEVO Season 5 would feature the return of a [[CEVO-Professional]] division, and, for the first time in its history, a LAN playoff, to be held at TheGXL Universe in October 2014.<ref>http://cevo.com/news/232/cevo-announces-tf2-season-5-8-135-in-cash-prizes-register-today-/</ref>

CEVO Season 6 will not be taking place, as a result of low player turnout. <ref>http://teamfortress.tv/thread/20863/cevo-season-6-announced#22</ref>

'''ozfortress''' is the longest running and most popular competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' league in the Oceanic region. ozfortress supports [[Highlander]], [[6v6]] and [[Ultiduo]] seasonal competitions, as well as numerous offseason events. ozfortress is considered to host the highest level of competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' play in the southern hemisphere.

==History==
ozfortress was established in 2001 by TFC players {{flag|au}} ''mercury'' and {{flag|au}} ''tempest'' to cater for the competitive ''Team Fortress Classic'' community of Australia and New Zealand. ozfortress hosted a variety of TFC tournaments up until the early 2010s before official ozfortress support ended.

The ozfortress website was hosted on a standalone website for the majority of its lifetime until October of 2018, when it was announced that ongoing news posts would be issued on the organisations' Warzone page. In early 2020, the ozfortress forums went offline indefinitely, along with all information pertaining to competitions played before [[Ozfortress_Season_16|OZF 16]]. Currently, what was previously the ozfortress Warzone page has taken the domain name of the original ozfortress.com site and is the current home of ozfortress. Large portions of the old forums can be accessed through the [https://web.archive.org/web/20230000000000*/https://ozfortress.com Wayback Machine Archive].

==Major Leagues and Competitions==
===OZF: the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League===
'''2016 - Present''' 
====Overview====
[[File:OZF27.png|thumb|450px|Banner for ozfortress Sixes Season 27, played throughout early 2020.]]
Announced on the 24th February, 2016, the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is the successor to the organization's previous [[Ozfortress#OWL:_the_ozfortress_Winter_League|OWL tournaments]] that concluded with OWL 14 and were continued into OZF 15 and beyond. The tournament has been ran triannually since its inception and features five tiers: Premier, High, Intermediate, Main and Open. Main was introduced as a solution to [[Glossary#Sandbagging|sandbagging]] and to provide a middle ground between Open and Intermediate.

====Format====
The ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is most commonly run over a period of 10 weeks, the first seven being allocated to the regular season and the remaining weeks to playoffs. A pool of 9 maps is chosen prior to the seasons' launch. Premier, High and Intermediate are usually played in a round robin bracket, whilst Main and Open are run on the Swiss system. Throughout the regular season, two maps are chosen to be played by all teams each week. At the conclusion of the regular season, the top four teams of each division qualify for playoffs. Playoffs are run in a Bo3 format, with the three maps for each match being determined by a pick/ban system. The Premier grand final is a Bo5.

OZF playoffs use the Page Playoff system, in which the top two teams play each other(upper page playoffs) and the bottom two play each other(lower page playoffs). The winner of the upper page playoffs graduates to the grand final, whilst the loser plays the winner of the lower page playoffs in the semi-final. The winner of the semi-final then plays the winner of the upper page playoffs in the grand final.

ozfortress 6v6 makes use of [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_6v6_s36 a custom whitelist].

===OZHL: the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League===
'''2022 - Present''' 
====Overview====
The ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is a newer league designed for [[Highlander]] competition. OZHL functions much in the same way as OZF, but with a map pool, ruleset and weapon banlist suited to the Highlander gamemode. The league made its debut in mid 2022 after the [[Respawn League]] was dissolved into ozfortress. Staff previously overseeing RSL competitions were installed as ozfortress' new Highlander staff. Similarly, many teams such as [[red pandas]] and [[rascals]] that had formerly played in the Respawn League (and UGC) have since competed in OZHL.

Ozfortress has been predominantly a 6v6 platform for the vast majority of its lifetime. Previously, ozfortress hosted a now long-defunct ladder competition; the Ozfortress Highlander League (ozhl) which had its last title in 2014. This previous competition was run in much the same way as the late ozfl.

====Format====
As stated earlier, the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is run very similarly to the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League. The season is run over 8 weeks, with the first five allocated to the regular season and three for playoffs. OZHL uses [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_hl_s3 a less restrictive whitelist] than ozfortress Sixes.

Further information is available at the [https://docs.ozfortress.com/rules/highlander official ozfortress website].

==Minor Leagues and Competitions==
This section describes more casual or offseason events run by ozfortress.
===Ultiduo===
'''2007 - Present''' 
ozfortress [[Ultiduo]] is an annual single-elimination competition run during the offseason between ozfortress' seasonal premier competition - in the past the OWL league and currently the OZF league. For the majority of its lifetime, Ultiduo has been an open tournament run over either a period of a few days or a few hours. Most recently, (Ultiduo 17) the tournament has been run over 3 hours and 2 divisions.

The ozfortress Ultiduo competition is the oldest still-running ''Team Fortress 2'' competition in the Oceanic scene, having been played for nearly 16 years, with its origins lying as far back as the 27th of December, 2007. <ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20071230221228/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25002 Wayback Machine Archive: SINISTAR and BOWT are crowned the 1st ozf Ultimate Duo!]</ref>

===MSNC: A Midsummer Night's Cup===
'''2017 - Present''' 
A Midsummer Night's Cup are a series of single-night [[6v6]] competitions that were run twice a summer from 2017 through to 2019. From 2020 however, MSNC have been run at irregular intervals with the recent addition of a MSNC [[Highlander]] league. Teams are split into three divisions - either Premier, Intermediate and Open or Divisions 1 through 3. The focus for these cups is to provide ozfortress players with a more casual laid-back experience in between seasons. Hence, many MSNC tournaments have seen looser team compositions and more extensive offclassing than the seasonal leagues.

==Previous Leagues and Competitions==
This section covers currently inactive ozfortress leagues or competitions. This includes those that have been formally concluded and those that may return in future years.

===ozfl: the ozfortress league===
'''2008 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress league was a continuous 6v6 ladder competition open to teams of all skill levels. Match scheduling was determined by a team's win/loss streak, which provided them with the opportunity to face opponents at other skill levels, or opponents they would otherwise never meet in regular scrimmage. This league was seen as a proving ground for new maps designed for the competitive community, and was paired with a less restrictive whitelist. ozfl was largely regarded as a pathway into ozfortress' previous premier competition, the ozfortress winter league (OWL) series.

The ozfortress league was the longest running Team Fortress competition in the Oceanic scene, with its origins lying as far back as November 2002 with ''Team Fortress Classic''.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20021206100839/http://ozfl.ozfortress.com/ Wayback Machine Archive: OZFL - Season 1 commenced!]</ref> The first signups for the ''Team Fortress 2'' edition of the ozfortress league were announced on the 7th of May 2008 and began with an 8v8 format with random critical hits.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080621190542/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=26403 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress Team Fortress 2 League]</ref> The second round of matches saw a new 6v6 format being run alongside 8v8 and random crits disabled, before 8v8 was phased out entirely in March of the following year.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20090316070728/http://ozfortress.com:80/ Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress says good-bye to 8v8]</ref>

The ozfortress league ran a total of 127 rounds of ''Team Fortress 2'' matches spanning nearly 7 years, with the final game being played on the 20th of March, 2015. [[Team Immunity]] accounted for 55 of the titles won, thus winning over 40% of ozfortress league titles.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20190109053433/http://www.ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=28089 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress league title history]</ref>

===ozfc: the ozfortress cup===
'''2008 - 2013''' 
The ozfortress cup was a double elimination exhibition competition. The cup had 16 slots, 12 of which were occupied by the top 12 teams of the year. The remaining 4 slots were claimed as eight 'wildcards' who competed with each other in a qualifier format.

The ozfortress cup was the first non-Ultiduo ozfortress ''Team Fortress 2'' competition to be run. The first OZFC began on the 10th of January, 2008 in an 8v8 format.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080118012240/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25201 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfc1 - draw and points]</ref>

===OWL: the ozfortress Winter League===
[[File:Owl 14.png|thumb|600px|The banner for the final OWL season before the transfer to OZF. OWL 14 came to a close in September of 2015.]]
'''2009 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress winter league was the initial premier competition series run by ozfortress. It was a seasonal, round-robin [[6v6]] invitational that ran approximately twice a year. Teams were split into skill based divisions, from Division 1 or Premier down to Division 6. However, the number of divisions often varied between seasons depending on the number of teams registered. A typical competition ran over 10 weeks of matches and teams were invited to apply for selection before the competition began.

OWL was later phased out in favour of the ozfortress seasonal league following OWL 14 in early 2016. Recently however, the ozfortress Winter League has made a comeback in the form of OWL 2021, running alongside the existing OZF seasonal league.

===C4C: Capping for a Cause===
'''2010 - ~2012-13''' 
Capping for a Cause (stylised as '''Capping 4 a Cause''', or '''C4C''') was a 16 team open double-elimination competition run three times from 2010 to 2012. C4C aimed to raise funds for a named charity. Teams were asked to 'buy' their seeding by donating to the charity, where the highest seeds were given to the highest donating teams, providing them with a scheduling advantage throughout the tournament. Over the three iterations of C4C, over $22,000 AUD was raised for charities. These included the Australian Cancer Research Foundation, BeyondBlue and the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.

'''ozfortress''' is the longest running and most popular competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' league in the Oceanic region. ozfortress supports [[Highlander]], [[6v6]] and [[Ultiduo]] seasonal competitions, as well as numerous offseason events. ozfortress is considered to host the highest level of competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' play in the southern hemisphere.

==History==
ozfortress was established in 2001 by TFC players {{flag|au}} ''mercury'' and {{flag|au}} ''tempest'' to cater for the competitive ''Team Fortress Classic'' community of Australia and New Zealand. ozfortress hosted a variety of TFC tournaments up until the early 2010s before official ozfortress support ended.

The ozfortress website was hosted on a standalone website for the majority of its lifetime until October of 2018, when it was announced that ongoing news posts would be issued on the organisations' Warzone page. In early 2020, the ozfortress forums went offline indefinitely, along with all information pertaining to competitions played before [[Ozfortress_Season_16|OZF 16]]. Currently, what was previously the ozfortress Warzone page has taken the domain name of the original ozfortress.com site and is the current home of ozfortress. Large portions of the old forums can be accessed through the [https://web.archive.org/web/20230000000000*/https://ozfortress.com Wayback Machine Archive].

==Major Leagues and Competitions==
===OZF: the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League===
'''2016 - Present''' 
====Overview====
[[File:OZF27.png|thumb|450px|Banner for ozfortress Sixes Season 27, played throughout early 2020.]]
Announced on the 24th February, 2016, the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is the successor to the organization's previous [[Ozfortress#OWL:_the_ozfortress_Winter_League|OWL tournaments]] that concluded with OWL 14 and were continued into OZF 15 and beyond. The tournament has been ran triannually since its inception and features five tiers: Premier, High, Intermediate, Main and Open. Main was introduced as a solution to [[Glossary#Sandbagging|sandbagging]] and to provide a middle ground between Open and Intermediate.

====Format====
The ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is most commonly run over a period of 10 weeks, the first seven being allocated to the regular season and the remaining weeks to playoffs. A pool of 9 maps is chosen prior to the seasons' launch. Premier, High and Intermediate are usually played in a round robin bracket, whilst Main and Open are run on the Swiss system. Throughout the regular season, two maps are chosen to be played by all teams each week. At the conclusion of the regular season, the top four teams of each division qualify for playoffs. Playoffs are run in a Bo3 format, with the three maps for each match being determined by a pick/ban system. The Premier grand final is a Bo5.

OZF playoffs use the Page Playoff system, in which the top two teams play each other(upper page playoffs) and the bottom two play each other(lower page playoffs). The winner of the upper page playoffs graduates to the grand final, whilst the loser plays the winner of the lower page playoffs in the semi-final. The winner of the semi-final then plays the winner of the upper page playoffs in the grand final.

ozfortress 6v6 makes use of [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_6v6_s36 a custom whitelist].

===OZHL: the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League===
'''2022 - Present''' 
====Overview====
The ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is a newer league designed for [[Highlander]] competition. OZHL functions much in the same way as OZF, but with a map pool, ruleset and weapon banlist suited to the Highlander gamemode. The league made its debut in mid 2022 after the [[Respawn League]] was dissolved into ozfortress. Staff previously overseeing RSL competitions were installed as ozfortress' new Highlander staff. Similarly, many teams such as [[red pandas]] and [[rascals]] that had formerly played in the Respawn League (and UGC) have since competed in OZHL.

Ozfortress has been predominantly a 6v6 platform for the vast majority of its lifetime. Previously, ozfortress hosted a now long-defunct ladder competition; the Ozfortress Highlander League (ozhl) which had its last title in 2014. This previous competition was run in much the same way as the late ozfl.

====Format====
As stated earlier, the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is run very similarly to the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League. The season is run over 8 weeks, with the first five allocated to the regular season and three for playoffs. OZHL uses [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_hl_s3 a less restrictive whitelist] than ozfortress Sixes.

Further information is available at the [https://docs.ozfortress.com/rules/highlander official ozfortress website].

===Ultiduo===
'''2007 - Present''' 
ozfortress [[Ultiduo]] is an annual single-elimination competition run during the offseason between ozfortress' seasonal premier competition - in the past the OWL league and currently the OZF league. For the majority of its lifetime, Ultiduo has been an open tournament run over either a period of a few days or a few hours. Most recently, (Ultiduo 17) the tournament has been run over 3 hours and 2 divisions.

The ozfortress Ultiduo competition is the oldest still-running ''Team Fortress 2'' competition in the Oceanic scene, having been played for nearly 16 years, with its origins lying as far back as the 27th of December, 2007. <ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20071230221228/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25002 Wayback Machine Archive: SINISTAR and BOWT are crowned the 1st ozf Ultimate Duo!]</ref>

===MSNC: A Midsummer Night's Cup===
'''2017 - Present''' 
A Midsummer Night's Cup are a series of single-night [[6v6]] competitions that were run twice a summer from 2017 through to 2019. From 2020 however, MSNC have been run at irregular intervals with the recent addition of a MSNC [[Highlander]] league. Teams are split into three divisions - either Premier, Intermediate and Open or Divisions 1 through 3. The focus for these cups is to provide ozfortress players with a more casual laid-back experience in between seasons. Hence, many MSNC tournaments have seen looser team compositions and more extensive offclassing than the seasonal leagues.

==Previous Leagues and Competitions==
This section covers currently inactive ozfortress leagues or competitions. This includes those that have been formally concluded and those that may return in future years.

===ozfl: the ozfortress league===
'''2008 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress league was a continuous 6v6 ladder competition open to teams of all skill levels. Match scheduling was determined by a team's win/loss streak, which provided them with the opportunity to face opponents at other skill levels, or opponents they would otherwise never meet in regular scrimmage. This league was seen as a proving ground for new maps designed for the competitive community, and was paired with a less restrictive whitelist. ozfl was largely regarded as a pathway into ozfortress' previous premier competition, the ozfortress winter league (OWL) series.

The ozfortress league was the longest running Team Fortress competition in the Oceanic scene, with its origins lying as far back as November 2002 with ''Team Fortress Classic''.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20021206100839/http://ozfl.ozfortress.com/ Wayback Machine Archive: OZFL - Season 1 commenced!]</ref> The first signups for the ''Team Fortress 2'' edition of the ozfortress league were announced on the 7th of May 2008 and began with an 8v8 format with random critical hits.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080621190542/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=26403 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress Team Fortress 2 League]</ref> The second round of matches saw a new 6v6 format being run alongside 8v8 and random crits disabled, before 8v8 was phased out entirely in March of the following year.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20090316070728/http://ozfortress.com:80/ Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress says good-bye to 8v8]</ref>

The ozfortress league ran a total of 127 rounds of ''Team Fortress 2'' matches spanning nearly 7 years, with the final game being played on the 20th of March, 2015. [[Team Immunity]] accounted for 55 of the titles won, thus winning over 40% of ozfortress league titles.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20190109053433/http://www.ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=28089 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress league title history]</ref>

===ozfc: the ozfortress cup===
'''2008 - 2013''' 
The ozfortress cup was a double elimination exhibition competition. The cup had 16 slots, 12 of which were occupied by the top 12 teams of the year. The remaining 4 slots were claimed as eight 'wildcards' who competed with each other in a qualifier format.

The ozfortress cup was the first non-Ultiduo ozfortress ''Team Fortress 2'' competition to be run. The first OZFC began on the 10th of January, 2008 in an 8v8 format.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080118012240/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25201 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfc1 - draw and points]</ref>

===OWL: the ozfortress Winter League===
[[File:Owl 14.png|thumb|600px|The banner for the final OWL season before the transfer to OZF. OWL 14 came to a close in September of 2015.]]
'''2009 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress winter league was the initial premier competition series run by ozfortress. It was a seasonal, round-robin [[6v6]] invitational that ran approximately twice a year. Teams were split into skill based divisions, from Division 1 or Premier down to Division 6. However, the number of divisions often varied between seasons depending on the number of teams registered. A typical competition ran over 10 weeks of matches and teams were invited to apply for selection before the competition began.

OWL was later phased out in favour of the ozfortress seasonal league following OWL 14 in early 2016. Recently however, the ozfortress Winter League has made a comeback in the form of OWL 2021, running alongside the existing OZF seasonal league.

===C4C: Capping for a Cause===
'''2010 - ~2012-13''' 
Capping for a Cause (stylised as '''Capping 4 a Cause''', or '''C4C''') was a 16 team open double-elimination competition run three times from 2010 to 2012. C4C aimed to raise funds for a named charity. Teams were asked to 'buy' their seeding by donating to the charity, where the highest seeds were given to the highest donating teams, providing them with a scheduling advantage throughout the tournament. Over the three iterations of C4C, over $22,000 AUD was raised for charities. These included the Australian Cancer Research Foundation, BeyondBlue and the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.

== Combat terms ==

===Airdet===

When a [[Demoman]] detonates his stickies while they are in mid-flight.

===Amby===

Another name for the [[Spy#Primary|Ambassador]].

===Airpipe===

When a [[Demoman]] hits someone on the enemy team in midair with one of his grenades.

===Airshot, Middy, Aerial===

When a player hits someone on the enemy team in midair with a projectile. Usually used to refer to a [[Soldier]] hitting someone in midair with one of his rockets.

===Arrow===

Another name for the projectile from the [[Medic#Primary|Crusader's Crossbow]]. A player might ask for an arrow if they want healing from a Medic's Crossbow.

===Baiting===

When a player, either intentionally or unintentionally tricks another player to take a fight. When the bait is intentional, generally an opponent will be tricked into fighting a fight that is not in his/her favor. When the bait is unintentional, a teammate will generally suffer, as he/she was tricked into committing to a fight with a low chance of winning.

Players might bait their own teammates if, for example, a call is made to commit to a fight but they fail to do so without letting their teammates know.

===Buff===

The excess health granted (up to 150% base hp) by any of the [[medic|Medic's]] Mediguns when he continues to heal a player after they already have full health.

===Bomb===

The act of using explosive jumps in order to propel yourself towards the enemy. The resulting speed and height advantage is then usually used in an attempt to take out key targets such as the [[Medic]] or [[Demoman]]. Bombing is generally done by the [[roamer|roaming soldier]], and usually results in the bomber dying

===Clutch===

Adjective used to describe risky plays that save a team from certain round or match loss.

===Crater===

The act of a player falling to their death. Often used after a player is airshot.

===Crit Heals===

A term used to describe the [[Medic#Secondary|Medigun's]] mechanic of healing faster based on how long it has been since a player has taken damage. After not taking damage for 10 seconds the healing scales up from 24 hp/s to the maximum rate of 72 hp/s. Crit heals apply for buffs as well.

A Medic's self heal rate also increases based on the time since damage was taken. This starts at a rate of 3 hp/s, scaling up over 10 seconds to a maximum of 6 hp/s. This rate is doubled while the Medic is healing a player who is below full health, to a maximum of 12hp/s.

===DH===

The [[Soldier]]'s unlockable item, the [[Direct Hit]].

===Drop===

A drop is when the [[Medic]] dies with ÜberCharge ready. It also refers to a Medic with his ÜberCharge ready or currently deployed letting a nearby teammate die by not flashing or using Über to save the player.

===Focusing, Focus Damage===

As a combat class, focusing means intentionally targeting a single player to prioritize kills on the most important players. Usually, multiple players focus targets together to kill them faster instead of spreading out the damage dealt by teammates across multiple enemies.

===Force===

When a player forces an enemy [[Medic]] to activate his ÜberCharge earlier than desired by presenting an immediate threat to the [[Medic]]'s life or that of his teammates.

===Frag, Fragged===

To kill a player.
A Frag movie refers to an edited video completion of kills or good plays.

===Gun, Mini, Level 1/2/3 ===

An [[engineer|Engineer's]] sentry. Players often refer to them by their level. '''Eg:''' ''"Level 3 on cliff"'' Or by type of sentry (mini/normal). '''Eg:''' ''"Mini on left, behind the point"''

===Hardscope===

When a [[Sniper]] stays scoped for enough time to fully charge his shot. It also refers to a Sniper locking down a single sightline.

===Hurt, Lit, Destroyed, Hit, Tagged, Fucked, Rolled===

Used to describe players who have taken a lot of damage. The ambiguity of these terms emphasized the importance of calling the specific amount of health a player has.

===Juggle===

To use damage (usually explosive) aimed at an enemy's feet to knock them up by a small distance, preventing effective movement and making a follow-up hit easier.

===Juke===

A dodge.

===Kite===

A universal gaming term for dictating the range and engaging from a distance (when an enemy may want to bring the fight closer). Usually in the context of Über fights, the defending team may kite an offensive Über by running away and staying out of the optimal range of the offensive Über.

===Kritz===

An abbreviation for the [[Medic]]'s weapon [[Kritzkrieg]]. Often used as a verb to mean using the uber of this weapon.

===Meatshot===

A close range shot with a Shotgun or Scattergun where all pellets hit the target, doing 90 damage (Shotgun) or 105 damage (Scattergun). The term was popularized by [[ESEA]]-Invite [[Scout]] player [[carnage]].

===Milking===

Holding out using an Ubercharge in the face of large amounts of damage, to maximize the potential of the Ubercharge, when it is used.

===Peeking===

When someone looks into an area but is not planning on pushing into it, usually to gain information on the enemy's positioning.

===Pet===

A pet is a player who is out of position, typically in enemy territory, who enemy players decide to keep alive intentionally to stagger the player's respawn times or if it's a [[Medic]], to gain an Über advantage.

===Pipe===

A [[Demoman]]'s grenade. When used as a verb, '''eg:''' ''"Medic's piped"'', it refers to said player taking a direct grenade, or 100 damage.

===Pop===

The act of deploying an ÜberCharge or Kritzkrieg.

===Quickscope===

When a [[Sniper]] scopes in and fires without charging his shot.

===Roller===

A [[Demoman]]'s grenade after it hits the ground / wall.

===Spam===

Repeated shooting at chokes for the purpose of area denial, usually by [[Soldier|Soldiers]] and [[Demoman|Demomen]] due to the splash damage property of their projectiles.

===Splash===

The property of the explosion of rockets and grenades to damage players near the explosion without making physical contact with the projectile.

===Trickstab===

A term used to describe maneuvers in which a [[Spy]] backstabs an enemy using a set of movement tactics to kill players that are aware of his presence and who are actively trying to avoid getting backstabed.

===Übered===

Used to describe a player that has been Übercharged by a [[Medic]] ('''Eg: Demo’s Übered''') or used to signify that a [[Medic]] used their Übercharge. ('''Eg: Medic Übered''')

===Wipe===

A wipe occurs when the entire team dies at once.

== Metagame terms ==

===Backcap===

When a player, typically a [[Scout]], gets behind enemy lines and starts capping a point behind the front line thus forcing some members from the team to go back or, if the backcapped point is last, winning the round.

===Called===

The act of using the voice command "Ubercharge Ready!" This voice command is automatically called when a Medic gains full Ubercharge if another voice command is not already in use. This command can also be called manually by a Medic in an attempt to trick the enemy team into thinking that he has full Ubercharge. For this reason, it is important to differentiate between hearing the enemy Medic "Call" and seeing that the Medic has Ubercharge.

===Callout===

A term attributed to a particular area of a map to quickly communicate location.

===Coast to Coast Push===

The term referring to the process where the team that was pushed to their last point pushes all the way to the opposing team's last point, subsequently resulting in a capture and round win.

===Combo===

The [[Medic]] and the players that play near him. Their job is to use Uber to spearhead pushes and secure main areas to control objectives on offense and to deny access to the objectives and shut down Ubers on defense. In [[6v6]], the combo is usually a [[Medic]], the Pocket [[Soldier]], and the [[Demoman]]. In [[Highlander]], the combo varies but is most often made up of the [[Medic]], [[Heavy]], [[Demoman]], and sometimes [[Pyro]].
In [[4v4]], the combo usually consists of a [[Scout]], a [[Soldier]] switching between Roamer and Pocket when needed, a [[Demoman]] and a [[Medic]].

===Dry Push===

When a team pushes a point or an area without an Ubercharge. Commonly used when there is not enough time to charge an Uber, or when there are other factors that make the push viable (Player/ammo/health advantage, etc.)

===Distraction===

When one or more players openly present themselves to engage on the enemy in an attempt to draw their attention away from key targets, objectives or positions.

===Domino Cap===

When a point is lost because the previous point was taken with such force that a defense of the next could not be set up in time (ex. after a wipe on a 5CP map, a team is likely to lose two control points before they are spawned and ready to fight back).

===Double Overtime===

In King of the Hill, when both teams have dropped their timers to 0 and the attacking team has capture time on the point, triggering Overtime.

===Golden Cap===

When the time limit has expired and both teams have the same number of rounds, a Golden Cap determines the winner in a winner takes all round.

===Faked, Faking Uber===

When a Medic manually triggers the 'Ubercharge ready' voiceline to fool the enemy team into thinking they have Uber. This is done for strategic purposes, often to disguise the fact they are at an Uber disadvantage or to trick the enemy into thinking they are using The Kritzkrieg.

===Feed/Fed===

This is when a player puts themselves in an unfavourable or otherwise disadvantageous situation for no good reason which generally results in an unnecessary death for their team with no benefit on their behalf.

===Flank===

In 6's, the flank consists of the roaming Soldier and the flank Scout, who coordinate with one another to secure kills. For example, in many situations, the roamer uses his Scouts as bait to lure the enemy into the roamer's hiding spot for an easy pick. If plays are made on the flank and the team secures a positional or number advantage (in 6s and Highlander) the flank classes can push forward to hold territory and create a buffer for the combo classes to push in and capture points.

In Highlander, the flank composition can vary between teams, but generally consists of the Soldier, Scout, Engineer, Pyro and Sniper (both occasionally) and the Spy. Soldier plays a roaming role to distract the enemy and secure picks. Spy attacks with the help of a distraction, such as a bombing Soldier or Über push. When the Scout is not pushing the Payload cart, he watches the flanks and ensures no one flanks his own team, by putting out damage and/or getting key picks, for instance, shutting down the enemy Sniper. Ocassionally, Pyro may choose to make flanking plays if he does not stick to the combo, and the Engineer can choose to patrol a flank on maps with his sentry guns. In addition, the Sniper normally hangs far back behind friendly lines to get picks (or with the combo) but if he chooses, he may roam around on the flank to secure better sightlines on enemy players, especially the enemy Medic who is building Über.

In 4s, the flank is consisted of a Scout and a Soldier/Pyro. The roles of the Scout and the Soldier are the same as in 6s, but because the teams are smaller than in 6s, flanks are easier to control and as such, allow for a more fast-paced gameplay.

Flank classes assist the combo classes by watching the entrances that the combo isn't during holds and stalemates, and create openings and advantages via bombs, picks and off-pushes.

===Flex===
In [[Prolander]] this is the player/s outside of the combo who regularly switch classes within a round/match. For example, on defence they might run [[Engineer]] but on offence switch to [[Spy]]. Some classes such as Medic, Demoman, Heavy, Sniper, Soldier almost always remain constant within a match and the other 2 players, the flex players, swap to adapt to the game/strategy.

===Focus===
Focus, or also known as Focus-Fire, is when most classes on a team all attack the same player, usually a target of high value, or a target that is very aggressive.

===Leapfrogging===

When the two [[Medic|Medics]] have [[überCharge|übers]] out of sync, the medic who has full über first can get a free push into the other [[Medic]] without much risk since the enemy doesn't have full charge. However, if the push doesn't result in an enemy Medic pick, then the other team will have advantage and can push back in the same manner. This is called Leapfrogging. The occurs commonly on midpoints of [[5CP]] maps when the team that loses their Medic wins the Midfight.

===Pick(s)===

Kill on a player who is on the other team. Generally used to indicate the kill obtained when the enemy team was off guard.

===Main===

The Class somebody almost always plays in a competitive team (e.g. Roamer Soldier, Scout, Medic, Sniper). The class one mainly plays in public servers and other non-competitive formats does not contribute towards the concept of a main, although PUGs and Matches that one has merced/rung for would.

===Main Caller===

The person who decides, communicates, and organizes, or calls, all the team's plays. In lower levels, the task is often delegated to the [[Medic]] but higher level play is often the [[Scout#6v6|Pocket Scout]] or [[Demoman]].

===Mask, Masking===

When a Medic manually uses a random voiceline to override their automatic 'Fully charged' voiceline that is triggered when they get Uber. This is done for strategic purposes to confuse the enemy and potentially take them by surprise with an Uber/Kritz.

===Medigun Checking===

When one player on a team changes class to Spy and disguises as the enemy [[Medic]] to determine whether the Medic is running the [[Kritzkrieg]] or the stock [[Medi Gun]]. Many [[Medic|Medics]] now rename their secondary weapons making it harder to tell, but using 3D disguise viewmodels will circumvent this.

===Midfight===

The initial battle that takes place on the central control point in a 5CP or King of the Hill match at the start of each round.

===[[Offclass]]===

In 6v6, an offclass is a player of any class apart from the standard line-up of [[Scout]], [[Soldier]], [[Medic]], and [[Demoman]]. These are situational classes, most often switched to by a [[Scout]] or [[Roamer]] when holding, pushing last, or in stalemate situations that often occur in [[5CP]] to acquire a pick.

===Overtime===
Overtime is the period of time where one team has successfully capped the point, the time has run out, but the point is contested or semi-captured by the opposing team. If the semi-capture recedes fully then the first team wins.
In [[King of The Hill]], overtime occurs once the timer has been run all the way down by one team, but the other team is contesting or has some cap time on the point. In [[Attack/Defend]] if the opposing team successfully captures the point, overtime ends, time is added to the timer, and that team must then capture the next point.

===[[Pocket]]===
As a noun, it's the player (usually a [[Soldier]]/[[Scout]] in [[6v6]] or a [[Heavy]]/[[Demoman]] in [[Highlander]]) who protects the [[Medic]] and gets the most heals. However the role of pocket can be applied to most classes depending on the situation.

As a verb, it's the act of taking lots of heals from the medic and protecting him from any threats.

===[[Push]]===

The act of a team moving forward onto the enemy team.

===Rotate===

Essentially another word for 'move'. For many maps the combo will hold one area (often choke) while the flank classes hold another area (often flank). If the combo wants to push from the flank it is often called for them to 'rotate flank'. They will then move to the flank. The key difference from just saying 'move' is that rotate implies that the flank will swap with the combo and then hold/push from there.
Individual players can also be called upon to 'rotate to the combo' or rotate to a specific location. In these cases it essentially just means 'move'.

===Sac===

Short for sacrifice, when you purposely get yourself killed to help your team. For example getting yourself killed to touch payload cart or jumping into their entire team to force their Medic to use Uber. Also the action of sac is called "sacking".

===Stock===

Stock weapons are the vanilla weapons available in the game, which were present in the game at launch. The opposite of [[Glossary#Unlocks|unlocks]].

===Trade===

When one person from each team kills each other; also when an offclass such as a [[Spy]] or [[Sniper]] kill a class of equal value like a [[Scout]] or [[Soldier]].

===Tunnel Vision===

Originally a reference to camping [[Sniper|Snipers]] who look down their scope too much and have no peripheral vision (as if looking through a tunnel), in Team Fortress 2 it usually just refers to a player who focuses too much on an objective or player and fails to notice other players around him, which usually results in death to ambushers or flankers.

===Über Advantage===

When a [[Medic]] is significantly closer (usually ~20% or more) to having a full uber or gets his uber before the other team's [[Medic]]. Can also be referred to as just 'ad'.

===Über Counting===

When a team (often the Medic) calculates or predicts the enemy Medic's Uber levels allowing them to be aware of potential Uber advantage/disadvantage. This can be done in several ways including calculating the time since the enemy Medic has spawned, and noting the difference in time between your Medic spawning and theirs. Knowing which team has Uber advantage/disadvantage has a large impact on the immediate strategy of the team.

===Über Exchange===

When one Medic uses an Uber to force the other Medic to also use Uber. Both teams will try to make the enemy Medic flash more or drop players (not save them with the uber) to give them an advantage. It is a tactic commonly used to break stalemates and bust through choke points.

===Unlocks===

Unlocks are the non-vanilla weapons available in the game, which were added to the game after its launch. The opposite of [[Glossary#Stock|stock weapons]].

===Turtling===

Turtling is a gaming strategy where the player focuses on building up his defenses rather than going on the attack in a way that depends heavily on defense, such as blocking, counter-attacking and then avoiding attacks until the time runs out. Eg. defending last when having match points advantage until the half time concludes.

== Map terms ==

===Cart Path===

The part of the map on which the cart runs, and tracks are visible on the ground. Also may be referred to as Track.

===Choke===

General term applied to several maps referring to narrow hallways, rooms, or entrances.

===Flank(ers)===

The Flank is any area where the combo isn't. The Flank can also refer to the players who watch those areas. They are the players that don't rely on their [[Medic]] for heals and who prevent enemy flankers from getting into any positional advantage from which they can ambush the [[Medic]]. They tend to spark pushes by forcing Über or securing significant picks. In [[6v6]], the flank typically consists of the [[Roamer]] and a [[Scout]].

===Last===

'''Respawn League''' was an Asian and Oceanic ''Team Fortress 2'' league with a focus on bringing the [[Highlander]] format to those regions in an accessible and reliable manner. After its establishment in September of 2018, Respawn League went on to host both [[4v4]] and [[BBall]] tournaments in subsequent years, before being dissolved into [[ozfortress]]' Highlander Seasonal League in May of 2022.<ref>[https://rsl.tf/forums/threads/191 Respawn League dissolving into ozfortress + ozfortress Highlander Season 1]</ref> Co-founder of the Respawn League {{flag|au}} [https://rsl.tf/users/1 core] was made the Head Admin of [[ozfortress]]<ref>[https://ozfortress.com/forums/threads/779 ozfortress Head Administrator Changes]</ref>, and staff previously overseeing RSL competitions were instated as ozfortress' Highlander League Admins.

Respawn League made use of a [https://whitelist.tf/respawn_hl_s10 custom whitelist] for its Highlander competitions.

==Leagues and Competitions==
===AU/NZ Highlander===
Respawn League's AU/NZ Highlander competitions was kept to a single division (Open or Main) for the first half of its existence due to low player numbers. Seasons 6-10 however featured 2 divisions - Premier and Main.

Pass Time

2023-07-06T15:14:04Z

Lofty: /* History */

{{stub}}
{{needimage}}
'''PASS Time''' is a relatively new official gamemode released by Valve in 2016 with efforts to make it into a competitive mode starting in 2017.

== History ==
Some members of the competitive community adapted it to competitive with smaller maps and a '''4v4''' gamemode. The competitive version and its rules were mainly created by [[JaguarFiend]], along with community input. The first tournament for this mode took place in November 2018.<ref>[http://www.teamfortress.tv/49708/4v4-pass-time-tournament 4v4 PASS Time Tournament]</ref> It plays similarly to [[BBall]], albeit with more players, a more complex environment, and hence greater opportunity for strategy and teamplay.

Currently, the most popular map for this mode is [[pass_arena2]], which was the first map created for the gamemode by JaguarFiend in 2018. There are other maps which have been created over the years by other map creators, such as '''Smalltown''' and '''Collusseum''' (made by waves), '''Stadium''' (made by exer), and more. Since 4v4 Passtime's inception in 2018, it has remained almost entirely in North America, with some brief stints in Europe and even Asia, however players from across the world have played in 4v4 Passtime for months, including from Egypt and Colombia.<ref>[http://www.teamfortress.tv/49301/pass-arena2 PASS arena2 - TF.TV]</ref>

== Format ==
==== Primary Classes ====
Standard team composition usually has 3 soldiers and a demoman or medic.

== Ruleset ==
All hitscan weapons, IE shotguns or pistols, are banned with a plugin. Demoman stickies are disabled as demomen are required to use a shield.

'''ozfortress''' is the longest running and most popular competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' league in the Oceanic region. ozfortress supports [[Highlander]], [[6v6]] and [[Ultiduo]] seasonal competitions, as well as numerous offseason events. ozfortress is considered to host the highest level of competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' play in the southern hemisphere.

==History==
ozfortress was established in 2001 by TFC players {{flag|au}} ''mercury'' and {{flag|au}} ''tempest'' to cater for the competitive ''Team Fortress Classic'' community of Australia and New Zealand. ozfortress hosted a variety of TFC tournaments up until the early 2010s before official ozfortress support ended.

The ozfortress website was hosted on a standalone website for the majority of its lifetime until October of 2018, when it was announced that ongoing news posts would be issued on the organisations' Warzone page. In early 2020, the ozfortress forums went offline indefinitely, along with all information pertaining to competitions played before [[Ozfortress_Season_16|OZF 16]]. Currently, what was previously the ozfortress Warzone page has taken the domain name of the original ozfortress.com site and is the current home of ozfortress. Large portions of the old forums can be accessed through the [https://web.archive.org/web/20230000000000*/https://ozfortress.com Wayback Machine Archive].

==Major Leagues and Competitions==
===OZF: the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League===
'''2016 - Present''' 
====Overview====
[[File:OZF27.png|thumb|450px|Banner for ozfortress Sixes Season 27, played throughout early 2020.]]
Announced on the 24th February, 2016, the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is the successor to the organization's previous [[Ozfortress#OWL:_the_ozfortress_Winter_League|OWL tournaments]] that concluded with OWL 14 and were continued into OZF 15 and beyond. The tournament has been ran triannually since its inception and features five tiers: Premier, High, Intermediate, Main and Open. Main was introduced as a solution to [[Glossary#Sandbagging|sandbagging]] and to provide a middle ground between Open and Intermediate.

====Format====
The ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is most commonly run over a period of 10 weeks, the first seven being allocated to the regular season and the remaining weeks to playoffs. A pool of 9 maps is chosen prior to the seasons' launch. Premier, High and Intermediate are usually played in a round robin bracket, whilst Main and Open are run on the Swiss system. Throughout the regular season, two maps are chosen to be played by all teams each week. At the conclusion of the regular season, the top four teams of each division qualify for playoffs. Playoffs are run in a Bo3 format, with the three maps for each match being determined by a pick/ban system. The Premier grand final is a Bo5.

OZF playoffs use the Page Playoff system, in which the top two teams play each other(upper page playoffs) and the bottom two play each other(lower page playoffs). The winner of the upper page playoffs graduates to the grand final, whilst the loser plays the winner of the lower page playoffs in the semi-final. The winner of the semi-final then plays the winner of the upper page playoffs in the grand final.

ozfortress 6v6 makes use of [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_6v6_s36 a custom whitelist]. 

Further information is available at the [https://docs.ozfortress.com/rules/sixes official ozfortress website].

===OZHL: the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League===
'''2022 - Present''' 
====Overview====
The ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is a newer league designed for [[Highlander]] competition. OZHL functions much in the same way as OZF, but with a map pool, ruleset and weapon banlist suited to the Highlander gamemode. The league made its debut in mid 2022 after the [[Respawn League]] was dissolved into ozfortress. Staff previously overseeing RSL competitions were installed as ozfortress' new Highlander staff. Similarly, many teams such as [[red pandas]] and [[rascals]] that had formerly played in the Respawn League (and UGC) have since competed in OZHL.

Ozfortress has been predominantly a 6v6 platform for the vast majority of its lifetime. Previously, ozfortress hosted a now long-defunct ladder competition; the Ozfortress Highlander League (ozhl) which had its last title in 2014. This previous competition was run in much the same way as the late ozfl.

====Format====
As stated earlier, the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is run very similarly to the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League. The season is run over 8 weeks, with the first five allocated to the regular season and three for playoffs. OZHL uses [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_hl_s3 a less restrictive whitelist] than ozfortress Sixes.

Further information is available at the [https://docs.ozfortress.com/rules/highlander official ozfortress website].

==Minor Leagues and Competitions==
This section describes more casual or offseason events run by ozfortress.
===Ultiduo===
'''2007 - Present''' 
ozfortress [[Ultiduo]] is an annual single-elimination competition run during the offseason between ozfortress' seasonal premier competition - in the past the OWL league and currently the OZF league. For the majority of its lifetime, Ultiduo has been an open tournament run over either a period of a few days or a few hours. Most recently, (Ultiduo 17) the tournament has been run over 3 hours and 2 divisions.

The ozfortress Ultiduo competition is the oldest still-running ''Team Fortress 2'' competition in the Oceanic scene, having been played for nearly 16 years, with its origins lying as far back as the 27th of December, 2007. <ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20071230221228/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25002 Wayback Machine Archive: SINISTAR and BOWT are crowned the 1st ozf Ultimate Duo!]</ref>

===MSNC: A Midsummer Night's Cup===
'''2017 - Present''' 
A Midsummer Night's Cup are a series of single-night [[6v6]] competitions that were run twice a summer from 2017 through to 2019. From 2020 however, MSNC have been run at irregular intervals with the recent addition of a MSNC [[Highlander]] league. Teams are split into three divisions - either Premier, Intermediate and Open or Divisions 1 through 3. The focus for these cups is to provide ozfortress players with a more casual laid-back experience in between seasons. Hence, many MSNC tournaments have seen looser team compositions and more extensive offclassing than the seasonal leagues.

==Previous Leagues and Competitions==
This section covers currently inactive ozfortress leagues or competitions. This includes those that have been formally concluded and those that may return in future years.

===ozfl: the ozfortress league===
'''2008 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress league was a continuous 6v6 ladder competition open to teams of all skill levels. Match scheduling was determined by a team's win/loss streak, which provided them with the opportunity to face opponents at other skill levels, or opponents they would otherwise never meet in regular scrimmage. This league was seen as a proving ground for new maps designed for the competitive community, and was paired with a less restrictive whitelist. ozfl was largely regarded as a pathway into ozfortress' previous premier competition, the ozfortress winter league (OWL) series.

The ozfortress league was the longest running Team Fortress competition in the Oceanic scene, with its origins lying as far back as November 2002 with ''Team Fortress Classic''.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20021206100839/http://ozfl.ozfortress.com/ Wayback Machine Archive: OZFL - Season 1 commenced!]</ref> The first signups for the ''Team Fortress 2'' edition of the ozfortress league were announced on the 7th of May 2008 and began with an 8v8 format with random critical hits.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080621190542/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=26403 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress Team Fortress 2 League]</ref> The second round of matches saw a new 6v6 format being run alongside 8v8 and random crits disabled, before 8v8 was phased out entirely in March of the following year.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20090316070728/http://ozfortress.com:80/ Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress says good-bye to 8v8]</ref>

The ozfortress league ran a total of 127 rounds of ''Team Fortress 2'' matches spanning nearly 7 years, with the final game being played on the 20th of March, 2015. [[Team Immunity]] accounted for 55 of the titles won, thus winning over 40% of ozfortress league titles.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20190109053433/http://www.ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=28089 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress league title history]</ref>

===ozfc: the ozfortress cup===
'''2008 - 2013''' 
The ozfortress cup was a double elimination exhibition competition. The cup had 16 slots, 12 of which were occupied by the top 12 teams of the year. The remaining 4 slots were claimed as eight 'wildcards' who competed with each other in a qualifier format.

The ozfortress cup was the first non-Ultiduo ozfortress ''Team Fortress 2'' competition to be run. The first OZFC began on the 10th of January, 2008 in an 8v8 format.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080118012240/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25201 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfc1 - draw and points]</ref>

===OWL: the ozfortress Winter League===
[[File:Owl 14.png|thumb|600px|The banner for the final OWL season before the transfer to OZF. OWL 14 came to a close in September of 2015.]]
'''2009 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress winter league was the initial premier competition series run by ozfortress. It was a seasonal, round-robin [[6v6]] invitational that ran approximately twice a year. Teams were split into skill based divisions, from Division 1 or Premier down to Division 6. However, the number of divisions often varied between seasons depending on the number of teams registered. A typical competition ran over 10 weeks of matches and teams were invited to apply for selection before the competition began.

OWL was later phased out in favour of the ozfortress seasonal league following OWL 14 in early 2016. Recently however, the ozfortress Winter League has made a comeback in the form of OWL 2021, running alongside the existing OZF seasonal league.

===C4C: Capping for a Cause===
'''2010 - ~2012-13''' 
Capping for a Cause (stylised as '''Capping 4 a Cause''', or '''C4C''') was a 16 team open double-elimination competition run three times from 2010 to 2012. C4C aimed to raise funds for a named charity. Teams were asked to 'buy' their seeding by donating to the charity, where the highest seeds were given to the highest donating teams, providing them with a scheduling advantage throughout the tournament. Over the three iterations of C4C, over $22,000 AUD was raised for charities. These included the Australian Cancer Research Foundation, BeyondBlue and the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.

'''ozfortress''' is the longest running and most popular competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' league in the Oceanic region. ozfortress supports [[Highlander]], [[6v6]] and [[Ultiduo]] seasonal competitions, as well as numerous offseason events. ozfortress is considered to host the highest level of competitive ''Team Fortress 2'' play in the southern hemisphere.

==History==
ozfortress was established in 2001 by TFC players {{flag|au}} ''mercury'' and {{flag|au}} ''tempest'' to cater for the competitive ''Team Fortress Classic'' community of Australia and New Zealand. ozfortress hosted a variety of TFC tournaments up until the early 2010s before the game was phased out entirely.

The ozfortress website was hosted on a standalone website for the majority of its lifetime until October of 2018, when it was announced that ongoing news posts would be issued on the organisations' Warzone page. In early 2020, the ozfortress forums went offline indefinitely, along with all information pertaining to competitions played before [[Ozfortress_Season_16|OZF 16]]. Currently, what was previously the ozfortress Warzone page has taken the domain name of the original ozfortress.com site and is the current home of ozfortress. Large portions of the old forums can be accessed through the [https://web.archive.org/web/20230000000000*/https://ozfortress.com Wayback Machine Archive].

==Major Leagues and Competitions==
===OZF: the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League===
'''2016 - Present''' 
====Overview====
[[File:OZF27.png|thumb|450px|Banner for ozfortress Sixes Season 27, played throughout early 2020.]]
Announced on the 24th February, 2016, the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is the successor to the organization's previous [[Ozfortress#OWL:_the_ozfortress_Winter_League|OWL tournaments]] that concluded with OWL 14 and were continued into OZF 15 and beyond. The tournament has been ran triannually since its inception and features five tiers: Premier, High, Intermediate, Main and Open. Main was introduced as a solution to [[Glossary#Sandbagging|sandbagging]] and to provide a middle ground between Open and Intermediate.

====Format====
The ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League is most commonly run over a period of 10 weeks, the first seven being allocated to the regular season and the remaining weeks to playoffs. A pool of 9 maps is chosen prior to the seasons' launch. Premier, High and Intermediate are usually played in a round robin bracket, whilst Main and Open are run on the Swiss system. Throughout the regular season, two maps are chosen to be played by all teams each week. At the conclusion of the regular season, the top four teams of each division qualify for playoffs. Playoffs are run in a Bo3 format, with the three maps for each match being determined by a pick/ban system. The Premier grand final is a Bo5.

OZF playoffs use the Page Playoff system, in which the top two teams play each other(upper page playoffs) and the bottom two play each other(lower page playoffs). The winner of the upper page playoffs graduates to the grand final, whilst the loser plays the winner of the lower page playoffs in the semi-final. The winner of the semi-final then plays the winner of the upper page playoffs in the grand final.

ozfortress 6v6 makes use of [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_6v6_s36 a custom whitelist]. 

Further information is available at the [https://docs.ozfortress.com/rules/sixes official ozfortress website].

===OZHL: the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League===
'''2022 - Present''' 
====Overview====
The ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is a newer league designed for [[Highlander]] competition. OZHL functions much in the same way as OZF, but with a map pool, ruleset and weapon banlist suited to the Highlander gamemode. The league made its debut in mid 2022 after the [[Respawn League]] was dissolved into ozfortress. Staff previously overseeing RSL competitions were installed as ozfortress' new Highlander staff. Similarly, many teams such as [[red pandas]] and [[rascals]] that had formerly played in the Respawn League (and UGC) have since competed in OZHL.

Ozfortress has been predominantly a 6v6 platform for the vast majority of its lifetime. Previously, ozfortress hosted a now long-defunct ladder competition; the Ozfortress Highlander League (ozhl) which had its last title in 2014. This previous competition was run in much the same way as the late ozfl.

====Format====
As stated earlier, the ozfortress Highlander Seasonal League is run very similarly to the ozfortress Sixes Seasonal League. The season is run over 8 weeks, with the first five allocated to the regular season and three for playoffs. OZHL uses [https://whitelist.tf/ozfortress_hl_s3 a less restrictive whitelist] than ozfortress Sixes.

Further information is available at the [https://docs.ozfortress.com/rules/highlander official ozfortress website].

==Minor Leagues and Competitions==
This section describes more casual or offseason events run by ozfortress.
===Ultiduo===
'''2007 - Present''' 
ozfortress [[Ultiduo]] is an annual single-elimination competition run during the offseason between ozfortress' seasonal premier competition - in the past the OWL league and currently the OZF league. For the majority of its lifetime, Ultiduo has been an open tournament run over either a period of a few days or a few hours. Most recently, (Ultiduo 17) the tournament has been run over 3 hours and 2 divisions.

The ozfortress Ultiduo competition is the oldest still-running ''Team Fortress 2'' competition in the Oceanic scene, having been played for nearly 16 years, with its origins lying as far back as the 27th of December, 2007. <ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20071230221228/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25002 Wayback Machine Archive: SINISTAR and BOWT are crowned the 1st ozf Ultimate Duo!]</ref>

===MSNC: A Midsummer Night's Cup===
'''2017 - Present''' 
A Midsummer Night's Cup are a series of single-night [[6v6]] competitions that were run twice a summer from 2017 through to 2019. From 2020 however, MSNC have been run at irregular intervals with the recent addition of a MSNC [[Highlander]] league. Teams are split into three divisions - either Premier, Intermediate and Open or Divisions 1 through 3. The focus for these cups is to provide ozfortress players with a more casual laid-back experience in between seasons. Hence, many MSNC tournaments have seen looser team compositions and more extensive offclassing than the seasonal leagues.

==Previous Leagues and Competitions==
This section covers currently inactive ozfortress leagues or competitions. This includes those that have been formally concluded and those that may return in future years.

===ozfl: the ozfortress league===
'''2008 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress league was a continuous 6v6 ladder competition open to teams of all skill levels. Match scheduling was determined by a team's win/loss streak, which provided them with the opportunity to face opponents at other skill levels, or opponents they would otherwise never meet in regular scrimmage. This league was seen as a proving ground for new maps designed for the competitive community, and was paired with a less restrictive whitelist. ozfl was largely regarded as a pathway into ozfortress' previous premier competition, the ozfortress winter league (OWL) series.

The ozfortress league was the longest running Team Fortress competition in the Oceanic scene, with its origins lying as far back as November 2002 with ''Team Fortress Classic''.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20021206100839/http://ozfl.ozfortress.com/ Wayback Machine Archive: OZFL - Season 1 commenced!]</ref> The first signups for the ''Team Fortress 2'' edition of the ozfortress league were announced on the 7th of May 2008 and began with an 8v8 format with random critical hits.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080621190542/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=26403 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress Team Fortress 2 League]</ref> The second round of matches saw a new 6v6 format being run alongside 8v8 and random crits disabled, before 8v8 was phased out entirely in March of the following year.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20090316070728/http://ozfortress.com:80/ Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress says good-bye to 8v8]</ref>

The ozfortress league ran a total of 127 rounds of ''Team Fortress 2'' matches spanning nearly 7 years, with the final game being played on the 20th of March, 2015. [[Team Immunity]] accounted for 55 of the titles won, thus winning over 40% of ozfortress league titles.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20190109053433/http://www.ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=28089 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfortress league title history]</ref>

===ozfc: the ozfortress cup===
'''2008 - 2013''' 
The ozfortress cup was a double elimination exhibition competition. The cup had 16 slots, 12 of which were occupied by the top 12 teams of the year. The remaining 4 slots were claimed as eight 'wildcards' who competed with each other in a qualifier format.

The ozfortress cup was the first non-Ultiduo ozfortress ''Team Fortress 2'' competition to be run. The first OZFC began on the 10th of January, 2008 in an 8v8 format.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20080118012240/http://ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=25201 Wayback Machine Archive: ozfc1 - draw and points]</ref>

===OWL: the ozfortress Winter League===
[[File:Owl 14.png|thumb|600px|The banner for the final OWL season before the transfer to OZF. OWL 14 came to a close in September of 2015.]]
'''2009 - 2015''' 
The ozfortress winter league was the initial premier competition series run by ozfortress. It was a seasonal, round-robin [[6v6]] invitational that ran approximately twice a year. Teams were split into skill based divisions, from Division 1 or Premier down to Division 6. However, the number of divisions often varied between seasons depending on the number of teams registered. A typical competition ran over 10 weeks of matches and teams were invited to apply for selection before the competition began.

OWL was later phased out in favour of the ozfortress seasonal league following OWL 14 in early 2016. Recently however, the ozfortress Winter League has made a comeback in the form of OWL 2021, running alongside the existing OZF seasonal league.

===C4C: Capping for a Cause===
'''2010 - ~2012-13''' 
Capping for a Cause (stylised as '''Capping 4 a Cause''', or '''C4C''') was a 16 team open double-elimination competition run three times from 2010 to 2012. C4C aimed to raise funds for a named charity. Teams were asked to 'buy' their seeding by donating to the charity, where the highest seeds were given to the highest donating teams, providing them with a scheduling advantage throughout the tournament. Over the three iterations of C4C, over $22,000 AUD was raised for charities. These included the Australian Cancer Research Foundation, BeyondBlue and the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.

Pass Time

Lofty: formatting (thanks for contribs !)

{{stub}}
{{needimage}}
'''PASS Time''' is a relatively new official gamemode released by Valve in 2016 with efforts to make it into a competitive mode starting in 2017.

== History ==
Some members of the competitive community adapted it to competitive with smaller maps and a '''4v4''' gamemode. The competitive version and its rules were mainly created by [[JaguarFiend]], along with community input. The first tournament for this mode took place in November 2018.<ref>[http://www.teamfortress.tv/49708/4v4-pass-time-tournament 4v4 PASS Time Tournament]</ref> It plays similarly to bball, having to score the ball into the enemy hoop. Currently, the most popular map for this mode is [[pass_arena2]], which was the first map created for the gamemode by JaguarFiend in 2018. There are other maps which have been created over the years by other map creators, such as '''Smalltown''' and '''Collusseum''' (made by waves), '''Stadium''' (made by exer), and more. Since 4v4 Passtime's inception in 2018, it has remained almost entirely in North America, with some brief stints in Europe and even Asia, however players from across the world have played in 4v4 Passtime for months, including from Egypt and Colombia.<ref>[http://www.teamfortress.tv/49301/pass-arena2 PASS arena2 - TF.TV]</ref>

== Format ==
==== Primary Classes ====
Standard team composition usually has 3 soldiers and a demoman or medic.

== Ruleset ==
All hitscan weapons, IE shotguns or pistols, are banned with a plugin. Demoman stickies are disabled as demomen are required to use a shield.

Vanilla Fortress

'''Vanilla Fortress''' is a competitive community that hosts 6v6 and Highlander leagues in South America. It has run 3 6v6 seasons and 1 Highlander season to date.

The staff is currently led by head admin, [[PrestusHood]]. Previous head admins are [[Pepito]] and [[Flawless]].

== Format ==
Vanilla Fortress consists of three divisions for 6v6: Invite, Intermediate and Open. As for Highlander, there are only two divisions: Invite and Open.

The tournaments are played using the Buchholtz Swiss Format with divisions fixed with 8 teams. Teams pick the maps before the match.

The following win conditions are used:
* On [[5CP|5 Control Point]] maps, the map ends once the time limit runs out or one of the teams scores 5 points. In case of a draw after the time limit ends, a tiebreaker round, known as ''golden cap'', is played. The golden cap ends once one of the wins captures all points.
* On [[King of the Hill]] maps are played in a best of 7 format (first team to get 4 rounds, wins the map), without a time limit.
* On [[Attack/Defend]] and [[Payload]] maps are played with [[stopwatch]] mode and are played in a best of 3 format. The teams alternate between attacking and defending; if team A defended first in the previous round, team B will be the first to defend in the next round.
