This article is about Community Atoll strategy.

Note: It is recommended to read the main Atoll article first to become familiar with the names of key map locations used in this article.

General Strategy (All Classes)

  • Sticking to high ground can help you spot Zombies more easily and make it harder for Zombies to get to you.
  • If all is lost, you can hide out in the water. Be aware of the glow from Critical hits if you are the last human alive.
  • Use explosive barrels present around the map to fend of hordes.

Class-specific strategy

  • Because of the Scout's low health and the lack of hallways in Atoll, try to take advantage of his increased mobility and jump from rooftop to rooftop.
  • Jumping between roofs like the warehouse and broken houses are ideal, especially to bait slower zombies like Heavies.

  • Rocket jumping through the map is best if teammates got your back, avoid falling over the edges.

  • The Pyro is a good choice for crowd control as their airblast can knock zombies off course giving your team more time to finish them off or run to safety.
  • Airblast any zombies off of the rooftops and cliffs around the area.

  • Demoknight is best when circling around the map, avoid entering buildings or be ambushed by zombies.

  • As a Heavy you should stick near the Engineer on the rooftops and assist in keeping the roofs clear from any zombies.

  • The Engineer is best suited to create a nest on one of the higher points in the map, it's advised to build a nest on top of the buildings near the lighthouse, the Sentry Gun will have a good overview of the area and can provide good defensive synergy with a Heavy.

Zombie strategy

Voodoo-Cursed Scout Soul Scout

  • Avoid entering buildings alone, especially inside the warehouse as there are limited spaces to triple jump and dodge.
  • Consider ambushing lone classes from each side of the map, punish those who fall off.

Voodoo-Cursed Soldier Soul Soldier

  • Use your Pounce ability to get onto rooftops and attempt to cripple enemy defenses.
  • Due to this map taking place mostly in the open outside, the Pounce ability's stomp damage can come in play much more frequently. Try to pick off key targets, such as Medics, by engaging with your stomp ability first.
