What players say

Players who stick with it like the gunplay and shard card twist, but nearly everyone complains about empty lobbies, bots and cheaters, and AI-made art.

Many players enjoy the fast, satisfying gunplay and the shard card system, which changes the rules of each round and keeps matches feeling different. Heroes with distinct abilities, a free-to-play model with earnable cosmetics, and a less toxic atmosphere than rival shooters also earn praise. The complaints are sharper. Many players say the player base has shrunk sharply, with matchmaking taking many minutes and lobbies padded with bots. Some describe cheaters in higher ranks and weak anti-cheat. Some players object to the use of AI-generated art and to the number of monetisation layers, and a few report technical problems such as crashes, poor hit registration and invisible players. Steam's totals are still mostly positive, but reviews from the last year lean more negative, and most of the recent criticism concerns the shrinking player base and the AI art.

Praised

  • Satisfying gunplay

    Players describe the shooting as smooth and satisfying, with a fast time-to-kill that rewards precise aim.

    Many players
  • Shard card system

    The round-by-round shard cards that players vote on change the rules and keep matches feeling fresh.

    Many players
  • Free-to-play cosmetics

    Players appreciate that skins and items can be earned through play and that the game stays fair without paying.

    Some players
  • Character design and art style

    Heroes with distinct abilities and a stylised look are singled out as a strength.

    Some players

Criticised

  • Long matchmaking and low population

    Players report queues of ten to forty minutes and say the player count has dropped sharply.

    Many players
  • Bots and cheaters

    Lobbies are often filled with bots, and players describe aimbots, wallhacks and weak anti-cheat.

    Many players
  • AI-generated art

    Players object to AI-generated cards, stickers and promotional art, and say it is not disclosed clearly.

    Many players
  • Monetisation load

    Players criticise the combination of a battle pass, cosmetic gacha and shop, and frequent pop-ups.

    Some players
Who it suits
Players who like fast tactical shooters with unusual rules and are willing to tolerate a thin player base.
Who should skip it
Players who need quick matches, a full player base or a clean, low-monetisation experience with no AI-made art.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with under 20 hours mostly praise the first impression but several soon run out of matches, while those with over 200 hours mainly complain about bots, cheaters and the drop in players.
