A competition where the only allowed classes is Spy, Pyro and Engineer

13 years ago

I have an idea for a new kind of competition, a competition where only Pyro, Spy and Engineer are the allowed classes. What rules are needed to make this balanced then?

I will now give you my suggestion and what I’m trying to achieve with these rules is so that Pyro is better against Spy, Spy is better against Engineer, Engineer is better against Pyro.

Here are the rules:

Players: 6vs6 (maybe 3vs3 on a Koth map and with classlimit 1)
Game type: Koth/5cp
Classlimit: 2

Classes allowed:
Pyro
Spy
Engineer

Banned weapons:
Spy:
The Ambasador
(I do not want a new sniper, it would also make spy to good against pyro)
The Enforcer
(It makes spy to good again, even with his magnum he can take out a pyro when he has a big enough distance)

Pyro:
Flare Gun
(kills an engineer in 2 shoots, and a pyro can fight a engineer and
do good damage at a distance where his mini centry do not reach)
Detonator
(kills an engineer in 3 shots, and a pyro can fight a engineer and
do good damage at a distance where his mini centry do not reach)
Backscratcher
(Health packs is more important with no medics around)

Engineer:
All melee weapons except for Gunslinger
(If normal centrys would be used I believe there is a to High risk for a stalemate, and a slower game)
Frontier Justice
(It crits, do I need to say more?)
Shotgun
(else engineer will kill spy easily when he zaps his centry)
Wrangler
(Else the centrys become to good, to hard to destroy, and its just better than the pistol)

I want to hear Your opinions. Is this kind of competition with only pyro, engineer and spy good to begin with? Are my rules good enough? If not how should we make them better?
If you are interested in this kind of competition please make a comment.

rofl.
how much did you actually think through this? Why do you think it would be interesting? Why should we do this at all? Are you willing to create this competition doing something like Albert? or are you just being dumb and hoping someone that can be assed to do it shares your opinion?
