The Team Fortress Wiki has competitive representation in a number of competitive leagues. This page is to be used to list the past and present teams that the wiki has put together, while its accompanying Talk page can be used to discuss present and future competitive teams.

Future teams

Team Fortress Wiki US

Main article: Team_Fortress_Wiki:UGC_Highlander_League

Tele-viper is looking for 15 dedicated, reliable individuals from the wiki for the UGC Highlander 2011 Winter season. Even though our Team Fortress Wiki US team for the UGC Highlander 2010 Winter season was a mess, the guys who were running it tried their hardest to keep the team going and I, personally, had a LOT of fun. We didn't return for the Summer season, but I hope that we can return for the Winter season. Specifically, when I say "reliable", I mean it. I need people who WILL be there if they say they will. Last year, we had a few shining moments where we really felt like a team, but it was with (mostly) folks who didn't sign up at the beginning. We've got the resources, and we're supposed to appear as professionals. So let's make this happen. Please contact me via my Talk page or IRC if you're interested.

Past teams

Official Team Fortress Wiki Highlander Team (OTFWH)

Main article: ETF2L_Highlander_Community_Challenge/OTFWH

The Official Team Fortress Wiki Highlander Team (OTFWH) was the first competitive team to represent this wiki, and did so in the ETF2L Highlander Community Challenge. The team was comprised of international players, all of whom were regular wiki contributors. For many of the team's players, this was their first venture into Team Fortress 2 competitive play. Within the group stage of the league, the team took second-place in Group 233, losing in the group playoffs to Chocolate Hammer Green. The team was knocked out during round 2 of the Cup stage, and has since disbanded.

After being knocked out of the ETF2L Highlander Community Challenge, the original OTFWH disbanded and began forming new teams for the upcoming UGC Highlander 2010 Winter season. There was sufficient interest to result in the creation of a Team Fortress Wiki US and EU team, both of which entered the tournament. The teams have since disbanded.

Sparklebros (6v6)

Main article: Team Fortress Wiki:Competitive representation/Sparklebros

The Sparklebros team was formed following a few wiki contributors' experience and enjoyment after being taught (and playing) 6v6 mixes with the IDK/NE Newbie Mix Steam group. The team is currently signed up for the upcoming ETF2L season 10 6v6 tournament. This team is the wiki's first venture into competitive 6v6, as well as the first 6v6 venture for the team's players.


The Team Fortress Wiki EU team for the UGC Highlander 2010 Winter season would rather not be discussed (heh heh). The EU team had only won 1 match out of 2 played during the pre-season, and lost every match up to week 12 of the season. Because of this, the decision was made to drop out of the tournament by week 12 after facing numerous scheduling problems within the team, which resulted in the team being unable to acquire enough players to participate in matches.
