Ultiduo is a competitive game mode intended for competition and training. It features 2 Soldier and Medic pairs battling over a King of the Hill point. As opposed to 6vs6 or Highlander, Ultiduo focuses more on strong coordination between the two players, since neither has a very good chance of surviving without the other.

Gameplay demonstration

Gameplay

Ultiduo features a small map with a single control point in the King of the Hill style, with 5 minutes needed to win. The two teams are limited to one Soldier and one Medic, with almost all unlocks being banned. The gameplay consists of the two combos vying for positioning and Über advantage, and emphasizes deathmatch skill, healing and ammo management, and strong teamwork. Because these topics are crucial in competitive play, this game mode has gained popularity as a practice form for the Pocket and Medic of 6vs6 teams.

Maps

There are two main ultiduo maps, both of which feature strong high ground and low ground differences, along with little to no health or ammo packs.

Unlocks

The Ubersaw and Original are generally allowed in Ultiduo. Blutsauger, Crusader's Crossbow, Disciplinary Action and Escape Plan are also sometimes permitted. In general, the loadouts are designed to be as limited as possible due to the focus on deathmatching skill with the core classes.

League Play

No league is actively playing Ultiduo. However, many smaller communities run ladders or tournaments for it, and due to the small player count many players PUG it fairly regularly.
