Local Team Changer Not Working?
This script is a (horribly Failed) attempt at a team changer as a addition onto my local script. Thanks for reading. Code here(I know its bad)
if workspace.Gamestart == true then
Rteam = BrickColor.new("Bright red")
Bteam = BrickColor.new("Bright blue")
Teams = {Rteam,Bteam}
local plr = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
plr.TeamColor = Teams[math.random(#Teams)]
end

You used the wrong type of Color Format for the teams. You need to use proper BrickColor formatting. Try this instead:
Rteam = BrickColor.new("Bright red")
Bteam = BrickColor.new("Bright blue")
Also, you used math.random incorrectly to get the team. To fix this, let's put this in:
plr.TeamColor = Teams[math.random(#Teams)]
Anyways, I believe it should work now. If you have any further questions/problems, please leave a comment below! Hope I helped :P

Problem
You are simply attempting to set the player's TeamColor property to whatever string is returned by the randomly generated value from table Teams. In order for your assignment to work, your random TeamColor must be a BrickColor data type, which you can set using its .new constructor function.
The random function of the math library works one of three ways..
No argument: Calling it with no supplied argument would returned a uniformly distributed pseudo-random numbers.
One argument "maximum": Calling it with just one argument would return a uniform pseudo-random integer in ranging from 1 to maximum.
Two arguments "minimum, maximum": Calling it with two arguments would return a uniform pseudo-random integer ranging from minimum to maximum
All arguments must be integers. Your code isn't functioning as expected because you are passing a table, team, as argument to the function instead of the length of said table, with can be determined using the length operator (#).
Solution
local redTeam, blueTeam = BrickColor.new("Bright red"), BrickColor.new("Bright blue")
local player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local teams = {redTeam, blueTeam}
player.TeamColor = teams[math.random(1, #teams)]
You could also assign a variable to the TeamColor for use later on in your script.. by storing the pseudo-random integer before indexing it.
local redTeam, blueTeam = BrickColor.new("Bright red"), BrickColor.new("Bright blue")
local player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local teams = {redTeam, blueTeam}
local color = math.random(1, #teams)
player.TeamColor = teams[color]
print(player.Name, "has been assigned to the", tostring(color),"team")
