==Overview==
 +
 
 
The Engineer is considered an [[offclass]] in the [[6v6]] [[metagame]].  While the Sentry's poor mobility makes Engineer weak in transition plays, the sentry's aim neuters Scouts, its regeneration allows it to waste a lot of Uber, and once the sentry goes down, the Engineer can switch back to their main, acting as a disposable player. In large maps such as cp_warmfront, the Engineer's teleporters can be used to better hold second after a failed last push.

Usually, a team only runs Engineer only when they are pushed all the way back into last, and even that is rare. This is so as building a Sentry takes up a long time. However, a good side of this is that the opposing team will first have to focus their fire on the Sentry to get rid of it, thereby wasting a lot of the ubercharge.

When attacking a Sentry tanked by an Engineer, if you focus the Engineer, he'll either die or be forced to retreat, leaving the sentry vulnerable and maybe preventing a Scout or roamer from re-entering the fight.
