Game Modes
Knockout
Use rockets and Megablasts to knock out your opponents. Hit each opponent multiple times in a row to take them out. Each Knockout scores a point. Keep up the pace and score the most points, and the victory is yours!
But beware - your enemies can do the same to you, so keep dodging those attacks. Don't worry if you are knocked out at any point, you'll be back in the game in no time working with your team until one side wins the match.
Rocketball
Carry and throw the Rocketball across the arena and into your opponents' goal to score points against them. The first team to reach the point cap wins the match!
But remember, Rocket rules still apply and your opponents will be trying to knock your ball carrier out the whole time.
Mega Rocket
Mega Rockets drop from the sky and create capture zones. Work with your team to maintain an overwhelming presence within their capture area to secure the zone before your opponents do.
This is the perfect time to show your team play, coordination, and zone control so be sure to combine those skill plays.
Once your team captures five Mega Rocket landing zones, you win!

- Pickup coins: In the collect phase, coins will spawn all over the map, ripe for the taking. Collect more coins than your opponents over the course of the match to win!
