You and your opponent are dropped into a small, custom 1v1 arena, or maybe a designated part of the map. It’s usually an open area with some structures or materials around for cover. The battle starts with a quick gear-up period: you both have access to basic weapons like an assault rifle, shotgun, and materials (wood, brick, metal). You’ll have a brief moment to collect ammo, build some quick structures, or scout your opponent’s movements.
