-->''"With reworked weapons, new game modes, and fancier menus and H.U.Ds, it's pretty much better than [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 TF2]] in every possible way now. Except for the total lack of hats."''

----
!! This game provides examples of:
* BashBrothers: The healer working with anyone is a force to be reckoned with.
* BlandNameProduct: The booting screen is a (cosmetic) look-alike of UsefulNotes/{{Steam}} called Smoke, the intro screen is, of course, a homage to that of ''{{VideoGame/Team Fortress 2}}'', and the game is made by a company called Faucet.
* BottomlessMagazines: Double subverted, all players have an infinite amount of ammo on them, but they still have to reload fired shots.
* BoomHeadshot: {{Averted}}. Heads [[HitboxDissonance aren't even part of the hitbox]]. Because of the relative ease of aiming in two dimensions compared to three, the Riflemen class could be [[GameBreaker nearly unstopable]] if he could get headshots.
* BubbleGun: The secret class can create a wall of bubbles that can absorb bullets and reflect mid-air sticky bombs.
* CaptainErsatz: Every character in the game has a very obvious counterpart in VideoGame/TeamFortress2, save for the SecretCharacter.
* CaptureTheFlag: The flags being represented as briefcases.
* CoolSword: The main method of attacking as [[spoiler:Quote or Curly]]
* DropInDropOutMultiplayer: Matchmaking has a dedicated lobby and joining a match is as easy as double clicking
* FeaturelessProtagonist: All of the eight bit styled class sprites lack [[TheFaceless facial features]].
* GamingClan: The community has a vibrant competitive clan setting.
* GameMod: The game is easily moddable, allowing players to add new classes, weapons or sprites.
* GlassCannon: The Infiltrator can deliver the game's only OneHitKill attack, but has so little health as to be killable in two hits by most classes.
* {{Knockback}}: The Firebug and [[spoiler:Quote and Curly]] have attacks that propell other players backward.
* NoScope: Rifleman can charge his shots to be more powerful when scoped, but shoots at a faster rate when he isn't.
* LudicrousGibs: Players which are killed by rockets or stickybombs often have this happen.
* {{Overheating}}: The Overweight and Firebug both have this restriction on their ammo.
* OneHitKill: The Infiltratior's "backstab" will kill a player in one hit either from the front or the back.
* PlayerVersusPlayer: All matches are multiplayer brawls.
* {{Retraux}}: Considering this was created in 2008 (and constantly updated since then.)
* RocketJump: A major mechanic, for both the Rocketman and Detonator.
* SecretCharacter: You can play as [[spoiler:Quote or Curly]] from [[spoiler:VideoGame/CaveStory]]
* ScoringPoints: Getting kills, being useful, and making captures nets you points.
* SideView
* TauntButton: Pressing the F key will have your player do hold still and do gesture. Sometimes they come with SpeechBalloon with a picture inside.
* TheCameo: A secret character from [[spoiler:VideoGame/CaveStory]] is a playable homage of the two game's similar aesthetics.
* TournamentPlay: The game has a forum with a very active community, which hosts major tournaments every summer and winter.
* VideoGameDemake: of VideoGame/TeamFortress2
