'''Doubles''' refers to the 2 versus 2 part of a [[tournament]], also referred to as "teams". Doubles requires a different strategy, namely teamwork, to defeat your opponents. Although there are as many ways to play as there are players, several things remain constant: those who work together to attack and destroy their enemies stand a greater chance of winning, while those who separate to take on their opponents alone are easier to defeat as individuals by attacking them two-on-one. Strength in [[singles]] playing style does not necessarily translate into strength in doubles; the strongest ''team'' is the winner, not the pair of strongest individuals.
