a new game mode where five elemental factions, each consisting of two players, battle it out against one another simultaneously.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

wp-image-2324\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Each elemental faction has its own spawn point on the map. When you kill an enemy, you obtain the points above that enemy&#8217;s head. A match lasts 8 minutes, and ranks are calculated according to each team&#8217;s score at the end of the match.<\/p>\n<p>Consider killing enemies with higher points to earn more points for your faction. If your faction is behind, pay attention to positioning and strategize how best to make a comeback. Forming temporary alliances with other factions and attacking the team with the highest score can turn any match around in an instant.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hthgaming.com\/aov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/space.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"217\" height=\"2\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-924\"><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"user-interface-optimizations\"><\/span>USER INTERFACE OPTIMIZATIONS<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>We&#8217;ve overhauled the lobby UI in the latest version to make it more convenient and attractive.

All reward events will be consolidated here, making it quicker and easier to take part in events and claim rewards. This means there&#8217;s no need to worry about missing reward events anymore!<\/p>\n<p>In addition, you&#8217;ll also be able to follow the official Facebook page and YouTube channel from the lobby UI for the latest official news, to watch interesting videos, and to meet friends with the same interests.<\/p>\n<p>This visual overhaul also provides a bigger display space for heroes and skins.

Now players can receive rewards from daily sign-ins and by accumulating sign-ins.<\/p>\n<p>4. A new quest system has been put it place to help beginners progress faster.
