Run for your life!
In this gamemode inspired by Minecraft TNT Tag, everybody plays as Torbjorn with only one goal - survive!
Each round, players in the lobby will randomly be selected as Taggers and marked for certain doom! If the countdown hits zero, all TNTorbs explode and lose the game! The only way to save yourself is to pass your ticking time-bomb onto someone else by hitting them with your Forge Hammer, but only if you can catch them in time!
Become the last Torb standing to win the game!
Gameplay
- At the start of a round, everyone will be teleported to a common spawn location. After 3 seconds, Taggers will be chosen at random, so don't run off too far in case you get chosen!
- The amount of Taggers scales each round based on how many players remain alive:
-
3 Taggers between 9 and 12 players
-
2 Taggers between 5 and 8 players
-
1 Tagger for 4 or less players.
- During a round, Taggers can hit Runners with their Forge Hammer to pass their Tagged status onto them.
- When the round timer reaches 0, all Taggers will explode and be killed!
- Each round that a Tagger is eliminated, the round timer loses 10 seconds. In later rounds, the timer can be as low as 10 seconds! Better run!
- Everyone has increased base move speed, but Taggers have a slight speed advantage and will eventually catch up to you on straightaways! You'll need to twist, turn, duck, dodge, and juke to keep them off your tail! But don't try hiding - everyone can see where you are at all times!
- After tagging a Runner, you'll retain the Tagger speed boost for 2 seconds.
- All players can use Torbjorn's Overload ability to grant themselves a short speed boost. While Tagged, the cooldown for Overload is increased.
- If a Tagger falls off the map, they will be respawned, but at the cost of putting their Overload on cooldown.
-
Runners and Taggers blown up at the end of the round do not respawn.
Play continues until only one player is left standing at the end of the round!
Should the lobby ever lose all Taggers mid-round (such as by Taggers disconnecting), new Taggers are randomly chosen based on the amount of remaining players. Otherwise, if a Tagger disconnects mid-round, new Taggers will replace them during the next round.
If a Tagger becomes the only player remaining mid-round, they will win the match when the round ends.

MAPS
This gamemode was designed with most of the default Deathmatch maps in mind and works with all of the pre-enabled maps.
The mode will change maps after every match to keep the experience fresh.
To play on specific maps, just toggle them in the Maps settings.
Holiday variants of maps have not been tested, and there is a chance that the mode will not work on them due to geometry alterations.
THE MODE WILL NOT WORK WITH ANY MAPS OTHER THAN THE PROVIDED LIST.
Have Fun, and Don't Get Tagged!
