As opposed to [[6v6]], [[Highlander]] or even [[Ultiduo]], Ultitrio is more focused on DM skill and coordinated attacks within a team. Since winning a 2v3 or a 1v3 is not very likely, there is a lot of focus to move as a group. This gamemode is played on small KOTH maps that are specifically made for it, or other [[Ultiduo]] maps that are more open, but with many ways to regain high ground as any class, even Medic. |

This would not be possible in [[Ultiduo]] because of the two-person team limit and stricter weapon bans. With the addition of [[Scout]], it allows for more strategic gameplay because of [[Scout]]'s added dynamic play styles with weapons like the Fan O' War and Wrap Assassin, leaving Soldier to be more of a "clean up" class after a [[Scout]] marks someone or hits that player with a Wrap Assassin ball. |

| − | + | Before the finalization of the roster, [[Demoman]] was considered in place of [[Scout]], but being as most Ultitrio/duo maps have 2 exits and close quarters, Demoman would be able to lock down every inch of a map for free and subsequently deny everyone, so [[Scout]] was chosen for his flexibility and high mobility. | |
