+[[Team Development]]. [[Beat the Leader]] and the need for [[Tiebreakers]] may occur in both cases. The use of [[Sanctioned Cheating]] may require not only the players engaging in it to perform [[Bluffing]] and [[Roleplaying]] to succeed with the [[Stealth]] goals of not letting other players notice what they are doing, but also other members of their [[Teams]] that are aware of the subterfuge. This can create [[Tension]] among all involved as well as those suspecting that somebody is cheating.
 Considering how to handle [[Early Leaving Players]] and [[Late Arriving Players]] are even more likely to be important that in other [[Multiplayer Games]] since the absence of any player can several disrupt other players gameplay; [[AI Players]] can be used to mitigate this problem in some cases (the [[Left 4 Dead series]] is an example of how this can be done). Supporting players to handle these two patterns and coordinate themselves before gameplay occurs can motivate [[Game Lobbies]] in games that have [[Mediated Gameplay]].

 ''Games where teams compete against teams.''
-This pattern is a still a stub.
+Games typically make players compete with each other. When the designs match players together in [[Teams]] to compete against other [[Teams]] they provide "Team vs. Team" or [[TvT]] gameplay.
