Demoman

In Sixes

Main Article: Demoman (6v6)

In 6's, Demoman holds the primary role of dealing initial damage and crowd control. He makes sure the enemy never pushes into his team without taking damage and uses his spamming abilities to funnel the enemy team so they can be cleaned up by his teammates. He is also essential for defending as his sticky traps can net him easy kills and force the enemy to retreat, and his pill spam can easy chunk the enemy teams health if they are careless with their positioning. Demo is considered one of the harder roles in 6's due to his lack of mobility, causing him to have to consider his positioning carefully if he wishes to both not die quickly in a fight and still do substantial damage to the enemy.

Main Article: Demoman (Highlander)

In highlander, the Demoman's main job, is area denial. His weapons are great at dishing out high damage to numerous players at once, but fall short when it comes to accuracy. He serves a similar role as he does in 6's of damage dealing and crowd control, but he also is expected to deal with sentry nests and get plenty of kills as well.
