About Beset

75 abilities. 4 slots. Hurl fireballs, raise the dead, build turrets, tear portals, parry blades back intotheir owner's face. Every ability costs mana, stock, or your own HP — and a few carrypermanent trade-offs like lower maximum health. With 21 status effects in play, theloadout screen is where half the fight happens. Five ways to playDeathmatch — your team shares 50 lives. Spend them well. King of the Hill — hold the zone; a single enemy inside freezes the count.

Capture the Flag — first to three captures, and deep water drops the flag. Free-for-All — no teams, no bases, first to 15 kills. Greed — a gold rush. Bank nuggets, buy abilities mid-match, and raid theenemy chest — the further behind you are, the bigger the bite. Twelve hand-built battlefieldsLava fields threaded with safe ground, a ghost ship whose hull is your base, a moatthat only freezes on the tide, a forest maze re-routed by shifting trees.

Every map isauthored, not generated — and every map plays every mode. Climb when you are readyRanked is strictly opt-in and permanent. Six tiers from Bronze to Master and rating. In English, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, and Simplified Chinese.

I won somehow by sliding across the map. The other game I tried to join I got kicked out straight away.
