In this guide we hope you can get to understand everything you need to know about the game,from basic knowledge to advanced strategies!

Keep in mind that some of the info is outdated,so it will have a warning and what got changed

## Controls

### Basic Movement

To move your Hero, drag your finger on the left side of the screen to manipulate the virtual joystick, and your Hero will move the direction that the joystick is pulled. Dragging your finger on the right side of the screen will change your aiming and direction. You may jump by pressing the Jump button on the lower right corner of the screen.

### User Interface

Your health and armor are displayed in the lower part of the screen. These will slowly replenish up to a certain extent after taking damage, but in order to recovery fully you must use the Health Potions spread across the map.

To the right of the Health Bar, you may find your Ammo meter. Make sure to keep a close eye on it, you don't want to be caught without Ammo! You may click the Ammo button to reload before your current clip runs out.

### Skills

Each Hero has a series of unique and powerful **Skills**. The Active skill will restore automatically on a time-based cool down, while the Ultimate is mainly charged by hitting enemies. Active and Ultimate skills may be used by clicking on their icons on the right hand side of the game screen.

As you level up Heroes, you will unlock further Ultimate and Passive skills, which you may setup via the Hero's own menu

## Game Modes

Game Modes are categorized by three categories as seen below:

(Organized from left to right to match the game screen)

**Ranked | Casual | Private**

### Trophy Games/Casual

All games modes under this category will award you with Trophies based on your performance, which you can use to progress in the Hall of Fame or increase Hero's Glory Level.

Payload Escort is a time-based mode with only 1 payload where players are assigned into two different teams:
* Blue Team/Attackers: Their goal is to stay close to the payload in order to push it to its final destination before the timer runs out
Clash is a 3v3 based elimination mode with no respawning, and the winner is determined by best-of-five, meaning the first team to win 3 rounds wins the match. Heroes used in a winning round cannot be used for the rest of the match.

### Training Ground(Private)

Training Ground game modes will not contribute to your total Trophy progress. Think of them as a way to sharpen your skills, test different builds, or hang out with friends in private servers.

#### Private Games

You may create your own lobby to have private matches with friends. You may search your friends' rooms via their Lobby ID.

#### Practice Mode

The Practice Mode is the ideal mode for you to test out Heroes, different skill set-ups, etc. Practice Mode takes place within the T3 Arena Training Ground and it has no specific goals or time limits.

## Rumble Boxes(Currently Inactive)

Rumble boxes got updated so that unlocking heroes is not based on luck anymore,instead,to unlock most heroes(with exception of Arcade or Battle pass heroes,such as Vincent and currently Ono)requires the use of Hero Tickets\*

Brawl Boxes are one of the available ways of obtaining Heroes and other items. They can be obtained from the Shop, via the Season Pass or via the Hall of Fame. Big Rumble Boxes are equivalent to 3 regular boxes, and Mega Rumble Boxes are equivalent to 10 regular boxes.

Rumble Boxes can contain T-Coins, Power Cores, new Heroes and more. When all Heroes of a certain tier have been unlocked, the chance of obtaining Heroes of different tiers will be increased. When all of the player's unlocked Heroes have the maximum amount of Power Cores, Boxes will no longer contain Power Cores, and more T-Coins will be awarded instead. The amount of T-Coins and Power Cores rewarded can vary significantly depending on luck; however, a minimum is set to guarantee progress from every box opened.
