TF2 Class Tier List (2018)

[?]

A Tier: Medic, Soldier, Scout

All 3 are staples for a team. Medic is mandatory of course. Ubercharge is especially useful for breaking stalemates. Scout is underwhelming in pub servers due to having less free space to move around, but he shines in 6v6 due to being very difficult to hit. Soldier. Most versatile. Mobility. Damage. Long-range, but also viable in short to mid range. Good pocket.

B Tier: Demoman

Demoman borders the line between generalist and specialist. Some mobility and versatility. Good damage. Good for chokes and defensive play.

C Tier: Heavy, Engineer, Sniper

These 3 classes are useful specialists, but too situational to be considered for every game. While they are not totally useless in 6v6, they lack the versatility and are best as counter-picks.

Heavy is useful for light tanking, close-range damage and making space for team mates overall. But in lower level play, he requires team mates to take advantage of this space. In higher levels of play, his low mobility is easily countered.

Sniper has a higher skill requirement due to being aim dependent. He can counter Heavy, Engineer and other Snipers, but therein lies the problem. He's potentially monstrous with good aim, but the more competitive a game is, the more likely it is not use those classes.

Engineer offers situational utility. Sentry is useful for defensive play, but he needs time to be able to build it. Teleporter favors maps with spawn disadvantage. Overall, Engineer is better for larger teams. First, because more team mates will utilize his kit on a regular basis. Second, because having more team mates allows him to have enough space to setup his buildings.

D Tier: Pyro

Pyro's spychecking is good for public servers (as an ambusher), but Spy's are less common in higher skill level games. Pyro lacks a real specialization. He's good in close-range, but even with some damage buffs, he still has difficulty approaching in the first place. And he's bad in maps with long-sight lines due to being severely outranged. In more populous servers, it's easier for him to find targets and easier to hit multiple targets at once. But on smaller teams, his team can't give him the space he needs.

F Tier: Spy

Spy is viable in casual play against bad people but there's so many reasons why he's the worst class:
* Is hard countered by Pyro
* Against smaller teams, Spy stands out much more.
* If the enemy team communicates well, you'll be outted.
* Very limited amount of disguises enemy team would actually believe.
* Many people learned how to counter Spy's tactics years ago, and his kit hasn't been updated.
* Smart people are going to question why a disguised Spy is literally doing nothing to damage the enemy.
* He has low and inconsistent damage output meaning he is a liability if he doesn't get early picks.
* He requires too much skill for most casual players to use effectively, yet he's too bad for higher ranked players to use.

Swap Soldier and Demo's spot

While I don't necessarily disagree, somehow I get the feeling you read up on community competitive 6s and are just regurgitating the information you learned

Pyro doesn't get entirely shut down by communication and awarness.

He got shut down by most classes even scout kill him at close range.

pyro is worst close range class that countred by demo-soldier-scout-heavy in close range where he suppose to be strong in, move pyro to F tier, soldier is better ambush class since he have self sustain and high mobility and he is better as destroying sentry.

Sniper is A tier he has ability to kill all classes ,sniper in comp dominate all other classes, only another better sniper can kill him

The placement of the sniper makes me think you only play on casual servers

The three are in the same category for a reason, though, if we are talking about higher skill level play, yes, the Sniper becomes more useful and the Heavy becomes less useful.

You should change your title to TF2 Class Tier List (6 vs 6).

Why, so you can say soldier takes more skill than he does?

Also a tier list for this game is baffling to me because it was never designed around competitive play. Demo, scout, medic, and soldier will always be better than all the other classes because of how they’re designed to be comfortable in most situations or invaluable to the teams efforts. Scout and medic arent really generalists, but what they do well puts them in the invaluable category.
