 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.

 The '''Medic''' is a vital part of any [[6v6]] team, with his ability to use ÜberCharges or KritzCharges on teammates for pushes from point to point or for saving teammates. Due to this, he is usually the most targeted player by the enemy team. If a team loses a Medic they are posed with a large disadvantage of no heals, and may be pushed back to another point or even lose the game. As the Medics ÜberCharge is an important part of a match, they will usually be protected well by the pocket [[Scout]] - In some cases, the Medic may have to be escorted by their pocket [[Scout]] while he gets a health pack. Medics will usually communicate their ÜberCharge percentage as well as their position to their team so they can prepare pushes and defenses, and be ready for an enemy push. Because of the importance of the ÜberCharge, the common phrase ''''Pop it, don't drop it'''' is used.
-In [[6v6]] the more commonly used Medi Guns are the stock [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Medigun Medigun] and the [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Kritzkrieg Kritzkrieg], but in [[ESEA]] the [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Vaccinator Vaccinator] is also allowed. Most Medics usually use the default Medi Gun or the Kritzkrieg. The Quick-Fix was occasionally used before the July 11, 2013 patch which buffed it. As a result of the buff, it has banned in every 6v6 league, including UGC and RGL. The Vaccinator is banned in every 6v6 league. Some Medics will switch Medi Gun depending on the situation, sometimes surprising enemies with a KritzCharge usually done with the [[Demoman]] for maximum damage output.

 There are multiple Medic melees that can be used. The most common melee is the [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Ubersaw Ubersaw], which has a powerful attribute that gives 25% Ubercharge per hit with the downside of slower swing speed. However, the situations in which this can be used can be fringe and its benefit can sometimes never come up within a match. The [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Solemn_Vow Solemn Vow] was unbanned in Mid 2020, and has still not been fully explored. It allows the Medic to be able to view the enemy Medic's Ubercharge and enemy player's health. However, the Medic has to be in full-sight of the player in order to make use of it. Due to its stats, it can allow for Medics to call-out players who are weak and even help the Medic see if they have Uber advantage. Due to the fact that the Medic has to be in direct sightline of the enemy, it can sometimes only be useful when the Medic is in poor positioning. Both the [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Vitasaw Vitasaw] and the [http://wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Amputator Amputator], have very situational uses and are thus rarely used in competitive gameplay

-The Medic has nearly the same role as he does in 6v6; healing his teammates and using his ÜberCharges to turn the tide of a match. Instead of a Soldier or Scout, the Medic has a Heavy and/or Demoman as his pocket. Highlander Medic play-style tends to be more defensive or cautions than 6's as classes like Spy and Sniper are run permanently.
