Editing 2012 Tactical Paintball Championship

The '''2012 Tactical Paintball Championship''' was the second season of Malaysia's [[Tactical Paintball Championship]] (TPC). It comprised four rounds held between February and September at Canyon Paintball, Flashpoint Paintball Park, Mudtrekker and Cyberjaya Paintball Park.[1][2][3][4][5]

[[Black Goat Army (Malaysia Paintball Team)|Black Goat Army]] won the overall championship ahead of Mud Legion 2.0, Marauderz Blackdust and Bochalanang.[5]

== Competition format ==

The organiser's published format used seven players on the field and three reserves per team. The objective was to capture a centre flag and hang it near the opposing team's starting base within seven minutes.[1]

Gold and Silver classifications were used during the season. The finale introduced a separate Maverick division for newer players, using five-player teams, five-minute games and mechanical or rental markers.[4][5]
