Before crossing the start line on a map, you can join a team by using the /team chat command. In a team, if one player kills they will be put back into team 0, so they will not be able to go catch up to the rest of their old teammates. You cannot join a team once any of the team members have crossed the start line. If you use the /lock command, you prevent anybody else from joining your team unless you invite them with the /invite command. If your team is locked, any tee who kills will result in killing the entire team, but it will keep you in the same team rather than placing you back in team 0. Finishing a map in a team gains you a team rank for that map. Since team 0 skipping is not possible in a team, the recorded team ranks for any given map are often a better representation of players playing the map as the design intended. If you have team rank 300 on a map, that means you have the 300th fastest time for that map in a team. You can check your team rank on a map by going to your Player Profile, or by running the /teamrank chat command in-game. It is not possible to gain a team rank for all solo maps and most dummy maps.
