Games where teams compete against teams.

This pattern is a still a stub.

Examples

American Football, Ice Hockey, and Soccer are all Sports that have TvT gameplay. Likewise, Counter-Strike series, Defense of the Ancients series, Team Fortress series, and League of Legends are Online Games built around team play (and perhaps not too surprising are examples of e-sports).

Bloodbowl and Hattrick are examples where teams compete against each other but individual players control whole teams. In RoboCup the team members are all robots, and peoples involvement consists of creating and programming the robots.

Using the pattern

TvT gameplay is introduced in games to make Teams compete against each other, which more or less is simply applying the patterns of Last Man Standing or PvP on Teams instead of on players. Like Player Balance can be applied to PvP gameplay, Team Balance can be applied to TvT gameplay and Beat the Leader may occur in both cases.

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.

Consequences

Like any game with Teams, TvT can create Togetherness. However, what is noteworthy for TvT is that the experience of Togetherness can also extend to those in the other teams each if they are competing against each other since they have share the same game sessions or game instances.
