## Strategies

* If you see any power up when you kill someone, pick it up! Even if it is your least favorite superpower, it will still do you good in game, besides, you obviously wouldn't want someone using it against you.
* The main goal is to fill all of your slots or at least around 80-90% of your overall strength.
	+ Beware those who are more powerful than you, especially when they have reached maximum strength in all slots before you have. Your only hope to winning a game at the highest chance with the strongest player in your way is to stay away and farm as many people as possible. When you are halfway to maximum, you could stand a moderate chance.
	+ A good way to fight maxed players is to use a spammy weapon. Either an AR or VSS to keep your distance for safety, or an SMG for easier shots. A good marksman with maximum or high defense and bullet power should be able to take out a power with all slots filled up. Spraying, although does not deal the DPS you would want, it would sure make a player struggle to dodge your bullets, even with the highest movement speed.
	+ You can spectate a stronger player fighting someone else (preferably with a Sniper Rifle) and try to double-team against the stronger player, if you don't want to take any risks of getting reported for teaming, you should wait for the stronger person to take damage and defeat the enemy, then finish them off and enjoy the high amount of power dropped from killing the player.
* Airdrop weapons and more special weapons from Gold Chests are ridiculous when you are maxed with them. Since those weapons were made to be more special, most likely stronger or a little too overpowered for the game, you will easily shine with them.
* Unfortunately, you may have to dangerously drop at the beginning where all other players drop as well. If you drop an a safe an unpopulated place, while less risky, you won't get as many kills and be much less powerful. In that case, unless you are quick and can fight multiple enemies, your hope of getting many kills at the start is luck based.
* Power is good for players that are pretty new to the game, this Gem helps you kill other players faster so you can gain more gems that way. Power is best paired with spammy weapons (i.e. P90 or Minigun), because it can really increase the damage of those weapons to kill someone really quickly.
* Defense is good for, well, defensive players or players that are bad at strafing. This gem can let you take more damage so you become somewhat of a tank. Medium range fighting is good when you have this gem.
* Movement Speed is very important for all players. This is very good for running away from someone when unarmed, or chasing other players without the need to switch out of your gun. With maximum movement speed, you will become extremely unpredictable and hard to hit, this can protect you very well against slow firing weapons such as the AWP and strafing. Sometimes, streams of bullets can also be easy to dodge if you have quick enough hands. This gem is paired well with ARs and Snipers because the other player will have trouble hitting you while you can finish them off quickly.
* Bullet Speed is good for countering strafe and using slow weapons (Crossbow or RPG), this gem can let you shoot slower weapons and hit players before they can dodge away. The Crossbow is very overpowered with this as well as the RPG. Combined with Power and a good sniper, long range fighting has never been easier.
* Healing items are not necessary in Superpower, as your health will automatically regenerate (slowly). However, you should carry fast healing supplies (preferably Bandages, and especially Hybrid Potions) to make sure you can heal quicker than other players.

## Glitches/Bugs

* At one point, Defense was spelled "Defence," the British English spelling. This will be fixed sooner or later.
* If you start with a defense gem, it doesn't give the extra SP (you need to pick another one up).

## Trivia

* Along with VIP mode, Superpower is the only game mode where you can have more than 100 health and shields. (Big Zombies from Zombie Mode don't count, as they are not players).
* Superpower mode may be a parody of the Infinity Gauntlet Limited Time Mode from Fortnite.
	+ The Superpower gems resemble the Infinity Stones needed for the Infinity Gauntlet.
	+ Someone with maxed stats may resemble Thanos (a character from Marvel and the main antagonist of the 2018 movie Avengers: Infinity War).
	+ Just like how Thanos drops his gauntlet when killed, a player will drop superpower gems when killed.
	+ A player's possibility to have over 100 health and shields is similar to Thanos having much higher HP and shields than all players.
	+ Players regenerate their health and shields automatically, just like how Thanos regenerates his shields when getting a kill, however, his health never regenerates unlike in ZombsRoyale.
