Classes

From TF2 Wiki

The official group picture from Valve showing (from left to right): the Pyro, Engineer, Spy, Heavy, Sniper, Scout, Soldier, Demoman, and Medic

There are 9 classes in Team Fortress 2, (10 if you include the Civilian). They are grouped into three types (offensive, defensive, and support), but can actually be played in many ways depending on the strategies used. The classes are as follows:

Offensive

• Scout
• Soldier
• Pyro

Defensive

• Engineer
• Heavy
• Demoman

Support

• Medic
• Sniper
• Spy

N/A

• Civilian

Speed

Class speed comparison table. Speed is measured using cl_showpos set to "1" and is measured in velocity units (v)

Notes:

• Every class runs backwards at 90% of their forward speed.
  • Exception(s):
    1. Forward and backward speed are the same while crouched.
    2. Forward and backward speed are the same while zoomed (sniper) or revving minigun (heavy).
• All classes on the victorious side run 10% faster during humiliation.
• Disguising as a slower class will accurately alter a Spy's speed. A Spy cannot run faster by disguising as a Scout.

Health points

Notes:

• Over-healing by a Medic will raise any class to 150% of normal health.
