addedπ RIFT ZONES π Three New Maps That Refuse to Play FairRIFT Zones drop into a new section of the skirmish list (and Custom Game) the moment you update.

Misjudge it, and you've personally escorted a Shield Drone back to full health while a Lancer dashes for the exit. Own the loop, or feed the wave its second wind.

WARP β²"Run it back"
There's an orange pad burning at the far end of the loop, and a cyan one waiting upstream. Cross the orange and the rift snaps you backward - straight through the kill corridor you just survived.

BLACKOUT π«οΈ"You can't shoot what you can't see"
Fog rolls over the path in thick banks, and inside them your towers are blind - no targeting, no fire, nothing. Enemies walk in, vanish, and stroll out the far side untouched.
Suddenly the whole map is about the gaps: the slivers of open lane between the fog where you actually get to do damage. Long range becomes king. That whole-map sniper you never draft? Now it's the MVP. And the Null Drones are jamming your towers right as the Lancers come tearing out of the murk. Own the light, or lose in the dark.
Bring
reach, and nerves.
Beware
Null Drone + Lancer.
