Talk:Standard community competitive lineup

Is there a reason all the 6v6 pages still seem to imply that 6v6 is the only competitive format and are labelled as such? Highlander is almost as popular, and 4v4 is quickly gaining a following.

In fact, there don't even seem to be Highlander pages on the wiki, just a brief mention that it exists as a game mode. 4v4 at least has a skeleton of a page to itself.

Move page to "Standard community competitive lineup"

To match Competitive play and Standard competitive format (they are redirect pages).
Basically, the official Competitive Mode is dead, so only the community dictates what is the true competitive format.
If no one objects, I will move the pages after a minimum of 7 days. Tiagoquix (talk) 16:21, 28 August 2022 (UTC)

If I understand correctly, this is moving anything that mentions "standard competitive format" to mention it's community decided as opposed?

Not exactly. Team Fortress 2's competitive landscape began long before the official Competitive Mode implementation. While the official competitive mode (available through the main menu) adheres to several principles of community's competitive format (which began a long time ago), it doesn't follow them all. For example, community's competitive has weapon bans, taunt bans (to prevent third-person), sv_pure 2 (instead of 1), plugins to fix game issues, etc. So it's not necessarily the opposite, but rather something different.
The thing is that the game's competitive mode was defined by the community, not the developers. So this is the justification for separating/moving the pages. Tiagoquix (talk) 20:43, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
