4v4

4v4 is a newer gametype in competitive TF2. It can be argued to be a preferable gamemode by those who play it, due to what is claimed to be a more relaxing gameplay and forgiving rules. UGC is the only league that currently runs this competitive gamemode.

Format

4v4 is usually played with two teams of four.
A common set up for a team is:

• Scout
• Soldier
• Demoman
• Medic

Although teams may experiment various lineup combinations as each combination provides various advantages and disadvantages against opponents and also different game plays.

Other common combinations are:

• Pyro, Soldier, Demoman and Medic

• Scout, Pyro, Demoman and Medic

• Scout, Soldier, Pyro and Medic

• Scout, Soldier, Demoman and Heavy

4v4's rules are similar to that of 6v6, the only differences being the disallowance of a Heavy-Medic combo and allowance of multiple offclassing.
