-'''Rocket Jumping''' is a skill that turns Soldiers, the second slowest class in TF2, into one of the most mobile, evasive and aggressive forces in the game. As a [[Soldier]], a rocket jump can be performed by crouch jumping and shooting a rocket at a nearby surface simultaneously. Creative jumping can be used to avoid enemies, soar over map obstacles, and damage opponents from a place they may not be expecting; the sky. However, this comes at the cost of the user's health.

 ==6v6 Roamer==
-In the 6v6 ruleset, the roaming soldier rocket jumps frequently for mobility. As the medic is usually busy with the pocket and demo, the roamer will jump to health packs and away from the combo. For this reason most roamers will use the gunboats instead of the shotgun in order to jump around while taking less damage. This was only recently allowed in the [[ETF2L]] league rules.

 Knowledge of jumping can be what makes a good roamer great. Escaping, bombing, rollouts, and all around movement includes jumping.

-Frequently used to get a [[Pick]] and deal overall damage. Most of the time the roamer won't survive a bomb, but the point is that the suicide is worth the pick. Good chain jumps and creative bombs can make the difference between getting an important pick, and giving the enemy team a free kill.

-As a [[Soldier]], you can perform a rocket jump by jumping and shooting a rocket near yourself simultaneously. This maneuver turns the second slowest class in TF2 after the [[Heavy]] into one of the most mobile, evasive and aggressive forces in the game.

-In 6s, a soldier streaking across the sky makes for a pretty good distraction. As the roamer, his job is to create as many advantages as possible for his team. If the team really needs to push, but are too busy getting [[spammed]], a jumping soldier will draw attention away from at least one opposing player, possibly creating an opening for their team.
