FAQ

What's new for v2?

We're planning better stat tracking and team shuffling, all-new secret bonus awards, and a pick-the-winner mini-game for spectators. Overall, less waiting, more playing, and more transparency.

Do I need to be good at Halo?

No. Teams are balanced every game, so mixed skill levels are welcome. Plus, there are plenty of bonus categories rewarding different playstyles and achievements.

What if we have too many people?

This year, we'll be ready for 5-on-5 matches if more than 12 people join. Everyone will play in the majority of games. Each round, the bot will rotate players in and balance teams, taking into account which maps they've played and how recently they've sat out.

How do I get Halo Infinite?

It’s free on the Xbox Store, Steam, or the Xbox app on PC. Sign in the day before so updates are done by game time.

Can I join late or leave early?

Yes. Come and go whenever you need. Play at least 5 games to be eligible for prizes.

I’m on Xbox. How does Discord voice work?

Link Discord through the Xbox app on your phone, then join the Main Lobby from your console.

Will there be a practice session?

If there’s interest. Say so in the Discord.
