How a match works
SummaryUp to 50 players can be in the same room, but the actual fighting happens in 3v3 units. Your team of three goes up against one opposing team of three.
- Team size three players per side
- Room capacity up to 50 players at once
- Core demands loadout design and team strategy
Building your loadout
StepYour choices there — weapons, armor, and other items — determine how strong and durable you are in the fight. Start with basic gear, then experiment as you play more.
- Pick a weapon choose something that fits how you want to play.
- Add armor armor reduces the damage you take.
- Try different combinations switch things up between matches.
Winning as a team of three
TipsBecause the enemy also has three players, trying to solo the whole opposing team is a losing approach. Use in-game signals or chat to stay on the same page as your teammates.
- Coordinate your attacks so all three of you strike at the same moment rather than staggering in one at a time.
- Focus all three players on one enemy at a time to drop them quickly instead of spreading damage around.
- Decide on a role before the match — tanking hits, attacking from a distance, or supporting teammates are all valid.
- Watch for teammates in trouble and move to help them.
- Use chat or in-game cues to call out which enemy to target next.

Common questions
FAQWhat should I do first when I open the game?
Go to the loadout screen and pick a basic weapon and some armor before you queue. Once you are in a match, focus on learning how enemies move and how to stay close to your two teammates.
Can one player carry the whole team?
It is very hard to beat three opponents on your own because the numbers are always against you. The most effective approach is to combine all three players' attacks on one enemy at a time and work through the opposing team one by one.
Does better gear always mean you win?
Gear helps, but the difference between players' experience levels has just as much effect on the outcome.
