Casual is one of the two core types of online gameplay modes. These gamemodes allow the player to focus on simply having fun, without the added stress of ranks that is present in Competitive. Friends who have a big difference in skill level can comfortably queue together in a Casual match.
Playlists[]
There are five Casual playlists:
- Duel
- Doubles
- Standard
- Chaos
- LTM
Note: Each player shares progression between all playlists in Casual (i.e. Shares the same hidden Casual MMR)
Standard[]
Standard is generally the most popular Casual playlist. As the name indicates, it is the standard online game mode. In standard, the team is composed of three players, therefore, teamwork is crucial to victory. Because of the number of players involved in the gameplay, it is recommended that players maintain tactical positions and rotation across the arena.
Doubles[]
Doubles is a popular Casual playlist. Doubles is very popular because standard tends to balance the game less proportionally when there are more players to play with or against. In doubles, you need to co-operate with only one teammate.
Duel[]
Duel previously known as Solo Duel is arguably the most balanced in terms of raw skill. Because it is simply a one-on-one game, solo duel is not based at all on co-operating in a team, but on strategy and skill in the arena.
Chaos[]
Chaos is a Casual playlist for bigger party, you can bring a team of 4 to the game of 4v4 on standard arenas.
LTM[]
LTM also known as Limited Time Mode is a Casual playlist that appear from time to time featuring new Arena's, mix of known modes, new modes and more! Limited Time Mode is a Limited Time Casual playlist that you can solo que or play together with your friends.
Retired Casual Playlists[]
Rocket Labs[]
Rocket Labs was a mode similar to Standard, but with a twist to the Maps and it was removed in Patch v1.53. The arenas from the mode started returning with Free To Play Season 2 as Limited Time Mode, and also included some new arenas into it's pull. [1]
Extra Modes[]
Casual extra modes were taken out of Casual in Legacy Season 9 on September 24th, 2018 for all platforms.[2]
