Understanding the Swap Mechanic

Every 45 seconds, you'll instantly teleport to another player's location while they take yours. You cannot predict where you'll land, so preparation is key. Before each swap, position yourself in a safe spot away from your own traps.

Pre-Swap Preparation

1. Scout your arena during the first 45 seconds to identify safe zones and trap locations

2. Build escape routes near common trap clusters—having a clear path to safety saves lives

3. Watch other players' patterns to anticipate where traps are concentrated

4. Stay elevated when possible; swapping into high ground gives you reaction time before falling into hazards

5. Keep moving rather than camping in one spot—stationary players are easier targets for trap chains

When You Swap

Immediately assess your new surroundings. If you've landed in a trap-heavy area, sprint toward the edges of the arena or climb to higher terrain. Don't panic—most traps have brief activation delays that give you a window to escape.

Item Selection Strategy

When the item choice appears every 45 seconds, prioritize defensive items early (shields, healing) over offensive ones. Survival outlasts aggression in this mode.
