How the two sides play differently
TableYou are assigned to one side automatically each round. Both sides use the same map and the same basic movement, but what you are trying to do — and how you should move — is completely different.
| Goal | Murderer: take down targets; Sheriff: stop the Murderer and protect teammates. |
| Mindset | Murderer: aggressive and initiative-taking; Sheriff: defensive and position-holding. |
| Movement | Murderer: flank, rotate, and approach from blind spots; Sheriff: cover entry routes and wait for the enemy. |
| Solo vs. team | in 1v1: aim precision is the deciding factor; in 4v4: coordination and spreading across entry points matters. |
