'''Team SWAT''' is a ''[[Halo 2]]'', ''[[Halo 3]]'',  ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' and ''[[Halo 4]]'' [[multiplayer]] [[matchmaking]] gametype. As of May [[2008]], Team SWAT is a ranked playlist in Halo 3, after being featured in two Double EXP Weekend playlists. The player has no [[shields]], no [[motion tracker]], and spawns with a [[weapon]] that is well suited for obtaining headshots. Common starting weapons are the [[Battle Rifle]], [[Covenant Carbine]], DMR, and an [[M6 Series]] handgun. Mongoose ATVs can be found on maps such as [[Snowbound]] and [[Isolation]]. Inexperienced players should avoid this playlist as it can be particularly frustrating if they are not used to fast-paced gameplay. On October 5th, 2010, Team SWAT became an official playlist in ''Halo: Reach'' multiplayer.[http://www.bungie.net/stats/reach/playlists.aspx] SWAT is included as a built-in on-disc [[Slayer]] variant in both ''Halo: Reach'' and ''Halo 4''.

The lack of shields can significantly increase the speed of the game due to almost instantaneous kills, though there is often a tendency for people to be more cautious due to this vulnerability. Head shots are crucial, as they will take down one, or in some cases with the Battle Rifle, two or three opponents with a single burst.
