RTD, or Roll the Dice, is a plugin you’ve probably seen if you’ve ever joined one of TF2’s community servers before. Many servers tend to run it for better or for worse (it’s always for worse), and the effects of each roll can be pretty jarring if you don’t know what to expect. So, I wanted to take a look at all 73 effects currently in the plugin, discuss what each one does and how it performs in an average game, and rank them all in a tier list. Let me know if you disagree with any of my placements!

First of all, sorry most of the footage was from class wars, that’s the closest mode to normal TF2 that regularly runs RTD as a feature. It was really between that, 24/7 2Fort/Hightower with objectives disabled, or weird trade maps. Second, I’ll note that this is probably the largest video project I’ve done to date. Though the editing was mostly copy-paste, I had to do it 70 times per edit, which became very tedious by the end. Also, I had to not only get familiar with every single effect in the plugin but also get good gameplay footage of each, which took significantly longer than I’d care to admit. By the end of the project, I’d sifted through nearly 100 collective hours of footage for clips. All that being said, it was fun though! I like doing comprehensive breakdowns of niche stuff like this, so hopefully you enjoy it as well.
