Go to Team Fortress 2 > tf > custom > sound > misc (similar to the folder you have your custom hitsound in (if you have one), except sound/misc instead of sound/UI), create a new plain text file and rename it to tf_domination, tf_revenge or tf_nemisis (names are self explanatory) and change the file extension to .wav. This should create a 0 byte .wav file with the name of the sound you want to disable. Tested in a private server and it worked, iunno about sv_pure 1/2 but it should be fine because I've used this same method for killstreak sounds and that works in sv_pure 2.

Credit to Lawena. It's part of Lawena's recording tool

Install instructions: Put it in Custom

It works 90% of the time even without preloading but you can just preload to be safe. I don't play TF2 much anymore these days but it should be able to bypass sv_pure 2.
For some reason it sometimes doesn't work when joining servers (even when it does work during other sessions on the same server). Not sure what causes that but most of the time you'll be able to enjoy TF2 without domination/revenge sounds

Thanks mate. I'm unsure of what preloading is..Is that when I just create a local server and then I can join other servers?

Yes. Just make sure to do it right after starting TF2. if you join a pub server, then disconnect, then attempt to preload it won't preload properly.

Yttrium's competitive viewmodels config also uses preloading. It goes a step further and puts a small map in your custom files and makes it automatically load when you start TF2 so you don't waste a couple of minutes loading and exiting a big map. The map also kicks you right after joining so you don't even have to disconnect manually.

If you want something similar:
In your autoexec.cfg put "map_background [map name]" where map name can be anything.
You can use Yttrium's preload_room map. it's a small file and kicks you automatically so it doesn't take up a lot of time to prelaod every time you restart TF2.

I usually do it manually by joining and disconnecting from tr_arena_rc2 with the command "map tr_arena_rc2" but any small map will do.

You can drop map files in tf > custom > maps (This should work. Haven't used this pathway in a while though so I might've missed a folder. probably is correct though)
I usually put them in tf > download > maps because then Lawena's recording tool doesn't complain about the size of my custom folder when i try to record things. There's no real difference between the 2 unless you use Lawena a lot
