Ready Steady Pan
Ready Steady Pan, a form of 6v6, is a competitive Team Fortress format revolving around the use of stock melee in the form of a frying pan. It was originally designed as a low-pressure way of introducing players to the 6v6 format and mindset, the basic requirement of which is for every player to have a Frying Pan equipped. Classes that cannot equip the pan are banned, i.e. Engineer and Spy, alongside Heavy and Medic for their high health and health regeneration abilities respectively.
Format[edit]
It is similar to a standard 6v6 game but the only weapon that can be used to deal damage is the Frying Pan. Other "food" items and "jumper" weapons are also allowed. The Machina is allowed as it can only be fired if scoped in, which can be used to prevent miss-fires. A full list of whitelisted weapons is listed below:
- Bonk! Atomic Punch
