RSP (Acronym for Ready Steady Pan) is a variation of the 6v6 competitive format, with the main gimmick being the fact that each competitor have as their main source of damage the Frying Pan, alongside some secondary weapons to help them during the fight.

Class Limits

Classes are limited as such :

Each teams can have at least two times the classes played at the same time, with the exception of the Sniper due the to game-changing abilities the Jarate does have. Also, the Heavy is banned due to his large health pool which gives him an unfair advantage towards other players who are forced to melee against him, the Medic is banned because of his passive health regeneration, and finally, the Engineer and the Spy are banned only because they cannot equip the Frying Pan.

Weapons

The Ready Steady Pan gamemode have a whitelist which allows players to only use the Frying Pan as a melee weapon, with some secondaries added into the mix.

Scout

  • Secondaries

Bonk! Atomic Punch
Crit-a-Cola
Mad Milk

Soldier

  • Primary

Rocket Jumper

  • Secondary

Gunboats

Pyro

  • Secondary

The Thermal Thruster wasn't allowed during the Season 3 of RSP since the Jungle Inferno Update was released not before the tournament but indeed during it, but it will be planned to be usable for Season 4.

Demoman

  • Primaries

Ali Baba's Wee Booties
Bootlegger

  • Secondaries

Sticky Jumper

Sniper

  • Primary

The Machina is technically allowed, but even though you can aim with it, you are not allowed to fire this weapon to ensure fair matches.

  • Secondaries

Jarate
Razorback
Darwin's Danger Shield

Overall, these weapon restrictions were specially made to create loud matches, where Soldiers and Demos could pit themselves against each other with their pans, while the Scouts and the Snipers would give more of a support roles with their secondaries.

Maps

RSP being only runned by the pan.tf team, there is only one list of maps. The maps that were played for the Season 3 were :
