Committing suicide can be a strategic maneuver in a campaign and multiplayer context (typically in a team-based gametype). In a cooperative play in a campaign session, the players can task one another to be a decoy to allow the other to consider options with dealing the situation at hand. For example, in a Legendary playthrough, Player One runs into the enemy to distract their attention to allow Player Two to engage said enemy. Also, an uncommon tactic that could be added to this would be to stick a [[plasma grenade]] to Player One as he runs into the enemy.

Similar tactics can be employed in multiplayer whereby Player One of Team A wielding a rocket launcher rushes into the opposing team's base, killing himself and the opposing team to allow Player Two of Team A to retrieve the objective. However, it should be noted that committing suicide in a multiplayer will usually impose a respawn penalty on the suicider. In [[Slayer]]-based gametype, a suicide will usually deduct a point for the suicider.
