Four game modes and what each one asks of you
Table
In short
Every mode has a different win condition, so knowing the goal before the round starts puts you a step ahead.
The game has four modes, and the victory condition changes completely between them. Team Deathmatch is the most straightforward. The other three layer in objectives that go beyond simply eliminating opponents.
| Team Deathmatch | eliminate more enemies than the opposing team. |
| Capture the Flag | steal the enemy flag and carry it back to your own base. |
| Kill Confirmed | collect the orbs enemies leave behind when eliminated; picking up the orb is what actually scores the point, not the kill itself. |
| King of the Hill | occupy the designated zone to tick your team's score up; the capture gauge stops advancing whenever an enemy is also inside the zone. |
02
Using your weapon well
TipsIn short
Guns excel at range and angles; knives work best through cover and corners.
The game gives each team a different weapon type, and each one has situations where it works and situations where it struggles.
Tips worth knowing
- Gun players should pick elevated spots or open sightlines where enemies have to cross exposed ground.
- Knife players should use narrow corridors, blind corners, and flanking paths instead of sprinting straight at a gunner across open ground.

Common questions
FAQWhich mode should a new player try first?
Team Deathmatch is the best starting point because the only goal is to eliminate enemies — there are no extra objectives to track.
Do I need to spend Robux to get good items?
Items drop during normal play and can also be obtained through trading, so your collection grows for free. Spending Robux expands your cosmetic options but does not give any combat edge.
Why am I not scoring in Kill Confirmed even though I keep eliminating enemies?
Eliminating an enemy only places an orb on the ground — you have to collect that orb to actually earn the point.
Why does the King of the Hill gauge stop even when I am inside the zone?
The gauge stops advancing whenever an enemy player is also inside the zone at the same time as you.
Is this the same as Murderers VS Sheriffs Duels?
