General strategy
- There are magic spells in each of the spawn rooms, near the A and B control points, and on top of the battlements. Try to get them before anyone else does.
- Once the BLU team captures the control points to the side, a portal near the hill is opened, which leads you to the Underworld. Successfully getting out grants you a rare magic spell, overheal, and a speed boost. Try to get in as soon as you can.
Class-specific strategies
Scout
- Your high amount of speed allows you to quickly enter and escape the Underworld. Be careful when using the Sandman as it reduces your max health.
Soldier
- The Concheror provides passive passive health to the wearer, so you can enter the underworld and survive longer.
- The Disciplinary Action can be used for speeding up you and your teammate, making getting out of the underworld faster.
