Knockout Squad Elimination

Gauntlet Mode

High-octane, tournament-style elimination where only the best squads survive. Complete objectives under extreme pressure, outlast competing teams, and advance through progressively challenging knockout rounds.

How Gauntlet Works

🏆 Tournament Format

8-12 squads enter each Gauntlet match. Teams compete to complete randomly assigned objectives while eliminating opponents. Bottom-performing squads are eliminated after each round until only one remains victorious.

🎯 Mission Objectives

Each round features unique objectives that change the tactical landscape:

  • • Capture and hold designated zones
  • • Retrieve intel packages from dangerous areas
  • • Eliminate specific high-value targets
  • • Defend objectives from enemy squads
  • • Race to extraction points under fire

⚡ Escalating Difficulty

Rounds become progressively harder. Later objectives require perfect coordination, resource management, and combat excellence. Environmental hazards, limited equipment, and shrinking play areas intensify the challenge.

🥇 Scoring System

Squads earn points through:

  • Mission completion: +100 points per objective
  • Enemy eliminations: +10 points per kill
  • Squad wipes: +50 bonus points
  • Survival bonus: +25 points per round survived
  • Time bonus: Faster completions = higher scores

Essential Tactics

✅ Prioritize Objectives Over Kills

Mission completion earns more points than eliminations. Focus on objectives first, combat second.

✅ Manage Resources Carefully

Ammo and healing carry between rounds. Conservative play early ensures resources for final rounds.

✅ Adapt Squad Roles Per Round

Objectives change = roles change. Flexible squads outperform rigid compositions.

✅ Third-Party Strategically

Let other squads weaken each other, then strike. Efficient eliminations preserve your resources.
