(Remove strats not specific to map. (Yeah, Ashe, I saw these quickly yesterday, didn't think they were great, new guy's first try, but now I see how much they are not relevant to the map.) For me, by the time I have read them, it is fast just to delete.)

* Most of the "strategies" in this page are very common/general (e.g. "You can do Sentry rocket jump to bring the Sentry to enemy lines". This is a very general strategy, and not just for Wutville.

* These strategies doesn't use the potentials of the map (any specific part of the map, as boxes, walls, trees, etc) as a strategy (e.g. in [[Community 2Fort strategy]], the "Use the bridge awning to double jump into the enemy battlements. ..." phrase is simple, but refers that it may be useful to use some part of that map <nowiki>[the bridge]</nowiki>) or any advantages/disadvantages of using any class/weapon/movement type.

Wutville's layout is a long narrow corridor with a lot of choke points, and a few tunnels which go to different places, away from the Payload track. Due to this design, Sentry Guns and Sticky Traps are all great tools for the defending team due to the narrowness of the map. Because much of the map is a long path, Sniper's long-range damage is both easily utilized and very helpful. The many tunnels allow for Spies to infiltrate the enemy team.

This article is about Community Wutville strategy.

General Strategy

  • Wutville's layout is exceptionally dominated by long corridors with long sight lines. While there are flanks, they are mostly narrow paths that parallel the main route.
    • Due to this narrowness of the map, Sentry Guns and Sticky Traps are all great tools for the defending team.
    • In place of wide flanks, there are several cul-de-sacs to the sides of the route, each sheltering pickups or Spawns, that are large enough for several players and nests to be hidden from the main sight lines.
  • The final point lies below high ground that has plenty of Health and Ammo packs to the attacking team, should they push up the left flank ramp, securing this route can easily turn the tide.
