----

; Airshot : When a [[Soldier]] hits someone on the enemy team in midair with one of his rockets. Also known as a middie.

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

; Buff : The excess health granted (up to 150% base hp) by a [[Medic]]'s Medigun when he continues to heal a player after they already have full health.

; Clutch : Adjective used to describe plays that went well, but could've easily gone wrong. "Wow, that was such a clutch Medic pick!"

; 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]], Pocket [[Soldier]], and the [[Demo]]. In [[Highlander]], the combo varies but is most often made up of the [[Medic]], [[Heavy]], [[Demo]], and occasionally [[Pyro]].

; Drop : When a [[Medic]] dies before using his fully charged Uber. A uber drop can change the course of a game.

; 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 Uber or securing significant picks.

; Focusing : 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.

; Meatshot : An up-close shot with a Shotgun or Scattergun that does max damage. Coined by [[ESEA]]-Invite Level [[Scout]] player [[carnage]].

; Middie: When a [[Soldier]] hits someone in midair with one of his rockets. Also known as an airshot.

; Pick(s): Kill on player who is on the other team

; Pill : A [[Demoman]]'s grenade.

; Pipe : A [[Demoman]]'s grenade.

; Pocket : As a noun, it's the player (usually a [[Soldier]] in [[6v6]] or a [[Heavy]]/[[Demoman]] in [[Highlander]]) who protects the [[Medic]] and gets the most heals. As a verb, it's the act of focusing heals onto a single player as a [[Medic]].

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

; Push : The act of a team moving forward onto the enemy team.

; Rollout : The sequence of jumps and paths each class takes to the mid point. While there are many different strategies and rollouts employed for each map, the general objective is for each team to have the fastest rollout to the middle point that leaves everyone with a full buff, as that gives immediate point presence and area advantage to the faster team.

; Tunnel Vision : Originally a reference to camping 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.

; Uber 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]].

; Uber Force : When a player makes the [[Medic]] pop his uber earlier than he wanted to. This usually results in a significant advantage for the other team because if the team that was forced cannot immediately use that Uber to force the other [[Medic]] (which is very difficult if they aren't in a position to push already), then they cannot make a successful push and the other team will have an Uber Advantage.

; Uber pop(ped) : When a [[Medic]] uses his ÜberCharge.

6v6

Tooni: /* 6v6 Competitive Format */

'''''[[Standard 6v6]] contents should be merged with this page.'''''

== 6v6 Competitive Format ==
6v6 is a competitive format commonly called '6s' by the community.

In 6v6, the classes are limited in order to create a balanced game environment and to promote exciting gameplay by reducing stalemates. Each class is limited to a maximum of two, except the [[Demoman]], [[Medic]], [[Engineer]] (do note, the Engineer has a limit of two in [[ETF2L]]), and [[Heavy]], which are all limited to a maximum of one. The standard line-up for 6v6 teams (referred to as cookie-cutter) is:

- 2x [[Soldier]] (Pocket Soldier, Roaming Soldier)

- 2x [[Scout]]

- 1x [[Demoman]]

- 1x [[Medic]]

In some cases, a utility class is needed in order to create an advantage for your team or help defend a control point. A scout or roaming soldier generally switches, which allows classes such as [[Sniper]], [[Spy]], [[Engineer]], [[Heavy]], or [[Pyro]] to be utilized.

The most competitive 6v6 leagues are ESEA and ETF2L. ESEA is a paid league and features three separate divisions of play.

[[Open]]

[[Intermediate]]

[[Invite]]

ETF2L is free and has seven: Divisions 6-1 and the Premiership Division.

The Invite division is considered the highest level of North American 6v6 gameplay and features a championship event at the end of every season, called the ESEA LAN Finals. The top four teams in Invite fly out to Dallas, TX to compete every season. ETF2L's Premiership Division is considered the highest level of European 6v6 gameplay and has an online playoff event at the end of each season which four teams take part in, it does not have an official LAN event. Videos of past championships and playoffs can be found at the ''TeamfortressTV youtube channel''. [http://youtube.com/teamfortresstv]

== Game Modes ==
In 6v6, there are three different map types currently being played.

The most common is [[5cp]], or "5 Control Point", which requires a team to control all five control points in a map in order to win the round.

[[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.

[[ad]], or "Attack/Defense", uses 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.
