Badlands (KotH) strategy.

General strategy

Class-specific strategy

Leaderboard class scout.png Scout

  • As a Scout, your strategy should be to hit the enemy hard and fast. Use your speed advantage to flank enemies and try to kill Übercharging Medics and Engineers making a nest as soon as possible.
  • As this is a King of the Hill mode, it usually starts off like an Arena match before the Capture Point is unlocked. In this time, keep the pressure on the enemy's spawn point to give your team enough time to make a defensive perimeter at the Capture Point

  • The Soldier provides the offensive spearhead for any push. In this map, it's best to hang around other Soldiers or Heavies as it's easy to become outnumbered and overwhelmed.
  • As soon as the Capture Point is unlocked, you are one of the most deadly classes due to most enemies usually clustering around the central Capture Point to capture it as fast as they can. You can easily clear the whole point by rocket spamming towards the Capture Point while waiting for the slower moving Heavies to arrive.

  • You are very good at clearing the Capture Point when it's being captured and also in ambushing enemies around the tight corners of the buildings.
  • Since this map only has two water pits that are usually far away from the fighting, it is very useful to employ a hit-and-run tactics, as you may get overwhelmed by Heavies lurking around with their Medics

  • Engineers can place Sentry Guns on the inside of a wall with a Dispenser beside them to defend against the enemy using the map as a shield for Spies.

  • Snipers can use the windows of the buildings to have a good place to snipe, only showing the top half of themselves can help from damage taken. Though it's an area where Spies can easily backstab you.

  • Spies can hide under the bridge outside the respawn of the other team and easily get a backstab. This area is also a good place to hide from Pyros because their flamethrowers won't work under the water.
