The Mercenary was a special class, unique to Team Fortress 2 Classic, that was designed around the Deathmatch gamemode. Which was the only mode he can be played in. During a round of Deathmatch, Mercenary only starts with his default weapons, the Pistol and Crowbar, and must pick up other weapons around the map to replace them and get more points. Mercenary was as tall as the Soldier, with a health of 150 and a speed of 107% which makes him equal to the Medic.
If he were to be played outside of Deathmatch, using the server command tf2c_allow_special_classes, he'd be a versatile offensive and defensive class; able to pick up the weapons of other classes around him to replace his default weapons.
The Mercenary was voiced by Jonathon "
Stachekip" Biondi.
