comp.tf is the Competitive TF2 Wiki. We aim to provide the community with a free, neutral and comprehensive summary of current and historical competitive TF2 knowledge. Players, teams, tournaments, maps and classes pages are our most popular forms of content.

Contributing to existing pages[edit]

The only prerequisite to editing an existing page is that you follow the Editing Guidelines. Otherwise, we encourage you to edit as much as you can!

Expand the wiki[edit]

The majority of the pages on comp.tf contain little information! You can help by expanding these stubs into competent wiki articles. Stubs requiring expansion are listed here. Alternatively, you can go to a random page and see if you have any knowledge to contribute!

Update the wiki[edit]

Creating new pages[edit]
