The most popular gamemode in TF2 is Capture the Flag, where's the 2fort league at Sigafoo.

Also, because Rob unfortunately removed it from his profile, here's a copypasta version of his speech against competitive players.

A Quick Message To Competitive TF2 Players:

It's often funny how competitive-people are. They shun the newcomers, often talk straight trash, and are toxic to everybody that aren't like them. I feel sorry for them, really I do, cuz all they want is to be noticed. Keep talking smack about new players and YouTubers who want to enjoy the game for what it is, continue to believe that "6's" is the way tf2 is meant to be played in order for yourself to feel relevant. They try so hard, harder than anybody I've ever met in my life, to be the best at something that doesn't matter. Thoughts of grandeur and fame blind them from their true nature, ultimately stopping them from being awesome to the community that backs them up. No matter how hard u try, no matter how far you push yourself to be the best in a fantasy league, it doesn't matter. In your attempt to rise to the top, you forget that there are others that just want to enjoy the game for what it is. You strive to leave a legacy, but in the long run, nobody will remember your name nor will they care. Get over yourself, you think to talk down on somebody new is going to flourish this game? You think that talking down to YouTubers, saying that they don't do anything for the community, is really going to get you anywhere? At the end of the day, 99% of competitive tf2 players don't do shit for the overall community and just help themselves. They've got skills, that's for certain, but maybe you should work on actually helping people instead of being blinded by non-existant prize pools and fake fame. You WANT to matter to people, I certainly believe that, but with that negative influence you spread around; who will follow in your footsteps? Being awesome is more than just being yourself, it's about going over and beyond yourself to make an impact on others lives. Comp people will never believe that what YouTubers or artists do is meaningful whatsoever, yet we inspire people to see things in a new light and just have a great time. We boost people up, make them happy, laugh, we make them love the world of TF2 and understand the value this game has to offer. Some YouTubers/artists add tons of effort, some do not, but what doesn't change is the love and joy we have for this game that becomes infectious in a good way. You could say the same about competitive tf2, however, it clearly doesn't show. If there's one thing comp people should take from this: just remember that with all the years you put into tf2 competitive won't amount to much. Maybe you'll be the 1%, good for you and you definitely deserve to be there. However, if you don't end up being that 1% than no one will miss you when you're gone.

Ignoring the shitshow that this thread is, I still have 1 question about this tournament: Why?
