- The Upper Walkway can be used as a place to hide from Hale, as he likely would not go out of his way to check there. It can be reached through explosive jumps or wall climbing.
Class-specific strategy
Scout
- In addition to its regular use to get health back, the Mad Milk is extremely useful for putting yourself or your teammates out when they are on fire from the lava.
Soldier
Pyro
- If Hale is caught on fire after walking through the Tram's lava, use the Axtinguisher on Hale to deal extra damage and gain a speed boost.
Demoman
Heavy
Engineer
- A good spot to build a nest is in the security room and the Upper Walkway.
Medic
Sniper
- The Upper Walkway is a good spot to snipe Hale.
Spy
Saxton Hale
- If you are fighting a player while in the lower half of the Food Court, the Crocodile pit can be used to instantly kill players by knocking them into it.
- If several players are turtling in the security room, your Mighty Slam can weaken their buildings significantly. The Sweeping Charge can be used to charge through any buildings blocking the entrance.
