Map is Overtaken by Lava
The main feature of this LTM is that the once lush island is now filled to the brim with magma from the volcano. The only place safe from the hot lava are the high points in the map.
Lava will Continuously Rise Up During Matches
A few minutes into the match and the lava will start to rise, completely covering the lower ground. As the match progresses, it will rise up until only the high ground is safe.
Lava Does 20 Damage with Every Step
Players will take 20 damage directly to their health every time they set foot on the lava. This completely bypasses the shield and could eliminate players with low enough health.
Players Bounce Off of Lava
Making contact with the lava will have players bouncing off. The direction in which players can be controlled by pressing a directional button.
Can Build on Top of Lava
The lava is a buildable surface, allowing players to create stairs, floors, or other structures to save them from directly touching it. Each material can be used to build on top of it.
Materials are Given Per Second
A small number of materials will be added to players during the match. This is to counteract moments when the whole map has been filled with lava and players no longer have areas to farm materials from.

Use Impulse Grenade to Push Enemies Off
The Impulse Grenade makes a return in the most fortunate time as you can use it to basically throw off other players from high ground and into the lava. Aim it at their feet to send them flying off!
