Ana Paintball
｢︻デ≡一一
Have fun, train your aim!
Ana only, one-shot-one-kill, free-for-all: my version maintains the core principle of the classic Ana Paintball mode and enhances it with the Workshop! Formerly known as 'Enhanced Ana Paintball', it was the first Workshop version of this community-favorite mode. If you want to have fun while improving your aim and mechanics in order to be better at Overwatch and other FPS games, Ana Paintball is the right place to go! Learn to quickscope, work on your positioning and map knowledge while messing around with other players, demoting and honoring each other!
main features
• Over 10 enhanced maps, some featuring jump pads, teleporters and more!
• A Custom Spawn System to make respawning feel good and more fair!
• A unique Honor System to congratulate others on their performance!
• Stats Trackers that display your accuracies and the top performing players to name a few!
• Non-lethal Sleep Darts, an improvement of the classic rules that unlocks deeper gameplay!
• Hitting a Sleep Dart is required for the last point, a fun challenge every time!
• The Dynamic Win Cam captures the final hit for epic endings!
tips & tricks
• There is no scope timer or hardscope restriction, play the way you want!
• Scoped shots pierce through players, allowing for Collateral Kills!
• Killstreaks, Shutdowns, and Demotions are announced to everyone! Your performance won't go unnoticed!
• Melee attacks kill sleeping players, a technique known as Executions! It will also refill your ammo, making sleeping players ammo bags begging to be punched!
• Executing players with a score above yours makes them lose 1 point, which is called a Demotion!
• Sleeping players' outline color changes to green if you can demote them!
• When 1 point from winning, you nanoboost yourself! Other players will hear you coming!
• Nanoboost disables your rifle & melee but it also reduces your sleep dart cooldown! To win the game, hit a player with a Sleep Dart!
• It is also possible to win by getting a 15+ killstreak and calling the Nano-nuke, which plays an epic cinematic and kills every player!

F.A.Q.
Aside from Ana Paintball veterans, this choice does not really bother anyone. And if you are one of them, I swear the more you play without Sleep Dart kills, the more you will be convinced THIS is how Ana Paintball should be played!!
- The "Dart Kill" rule can only be attributed to pre-workshop limitations where damage from all sources would kill you, including the Dart's 5 damage. Now that we have workarounds, it is obsolete;
- Disabling Sleep Dart kills allows for so many new situations as well as new, refreshing gameplay mechanics unique to my mode such as demoting!
I believe ammo management is a strong point in my version!
- You get used to the 15 rounds you have in actual matches rather than teaching your brain that Ana has infinite ammo;
- Executions refill your ammo instantly, a mechanic that adds more depth to the streamlined Ana Paintball gameplay;
- Realistically, dying specifically because you had to reload should never happens, especially not with the max ammo mechanic, so there is really no downside to it!
Real-life paintball has a one hit and you're out rule, hence the term paintball used in Overwatch game modes: it means one shot, one kill!
I am Jinko! Though I did not create Ana Paintball, I made the first workshop version of it. It used to be called Enhanced Ana Paintball, but I changed the name to associate it to my online character and make it easy to remember.
Not only do I find it too repetitive and boring to play on the same map constantly, I also really enjoy discovering new maps and learning their many quirks and secret spots as I play. This has made my map knowledge so good, and is a very useful skill in competitive. You will know all the shortcuts, hiding spots and insane angles by heart, without having to learn anything: just play Ana Paintball!
And if you enjoy playing Chateau Guillard 24/7, do open a lobby yourself and enable only that map!

From the main menu:
PLAY > CUSTOM GAMES > CREATE > SETTINGS > IMPORT CODE (under "summary")
PLEASE DO NOT SAVE ANY GAME MODE'S PRESETS! By doing so, you will be stuck playing the same version every time you use the preset even though many updates were made to the mode! Instead, import the code every time, or add it to your favorites from the recents tab, then create lobbies from the favorites tab!
support me!
I estimate to have spent over 300 hours developing this mode since I released the first version in 2019. It is a passion project and I have never worked on it expecting anything more than fun lobbies in return, but I will gladly accept your money if you really want me to have it! You could also add my mode to your favorites at the top of this page, it would mean a lot!
special thanks
• Zezombye, Provoxin & PharingWell for the dozens of hours they spent helping me, sometimes even coding features that were directly added to the mode when I did not have the skills to do it myself. They helped me the most, allowing my version of Ana Paintball to become what I had always dreamed it to be since 2019. I think we did a pretty good job! Who would have thought?
• Zingy & Paladins for helping me code one of the most important features of the mode: the respawn system. I am forever grateful to you both!
• NotanOtaku for making the Nuclear killstreak insanely cool with a great cinematic idea and a trick to have siren sounds from Baston's ult. It's one of the coolest things in my mode!
• Mitsiee, CactusPuppy, Netux, Aeromancer, Jar of Gibbons & the Workshop.codes discord server members in general who offer their help daily, no matter how stupid and basic the questions, no matter how big the task. It is not only helpful but also extremely motivating, like anything is actually possible no matter your programming skills! If you want to make something in the Workshop, even if you have 0 Workshop or code knowledge, join this server right now!
• KevlaR, who helped me so much with Ana Paintball back in the good old Workshop days when I actually had 0 programming knowledge. We made Last Man Bouncing together and I cherish those memories!
