Any death unaided by an opposing player is considered to be a suicide.
There are multiple ways to suicide in the game. These include the player switching to another class or team while not inside a Respawn area or Resupply area, a Soldier's own rockets, and a Demoman's own Grenades and Stickybombs, a Pyro deflecting projectiles at his feet, a Heavy with the Gloves of Running Urgently active or a Scout with the Boston Basher or Three-Rune Blade hitting himself repeatedly. It also possible for an Engineer to be killed by his own Sentry Gun. If the player killed himself by switching teams or classes, the message, "<insert name here> bid farewell, cruel world!" will appear as a kill notice. These kill notices also appear on death by environmental damage, which include drowning, trains, and saw blades.
Soldiers are able to suicide by performing the Kamikaze taunt, killing themselves and any opposing players in range. However, the Soldier can survive if overhealed by a Medic and buffed with Battalion's Backup or if the Soldier has the Rocket Jumper equipped.
A suicide can also be performed instantly by typing kill into the console. This is normally used in specific situations such as when the player is stuck and wishes to begin the respawn cycle. Similarly, a player can enter explode into the console to undergo a gibbing suicide, as if killed by an explosion. These commands, however, are disabled during humiliation.
Players who have recently damaged enemies who die from suicide or an environmental death get an assist in the kills list in the form of "<player> finished off <victim>". Any death not directly caused by a player will achieve this.
