• Weapons and credits are saved in the following rounds
• Bonus: +600 credits for winning the pistol round
• Standard bonuses for killing (+200 credits) and for installing Spike (+300 credits)
• At the beginning of each half of the match, players receive 2 ultimate points
• Additional decisive round in case of equal score of teams
• Approximate match time - 15 minutes

In addition, between December 14 and January 5, players will receive up to 20% additional experience for matches played as part of a group.
