Roles and practice choices

Zone anchor

Stay alive inside the point and call when your team has or loses the majority. Use cover rather than farming exposed eliminations.

Recon and flank

Report enemy transport and approach routes; avoid abandoning zone presence if the score is close.

Support and logistics

Keep transport, supplies and fortifications available for repeated zone fights.

Flexible reserve

Respond to majority shifts, reinforce weak angles and avoid feeding isolated attacks.
