Blue Buddy spawns near the centre of the map, but it cannot be picked up prior to its lock timer expiring.

Teams compete to pick up Blue Buddy by running over it after the lock timer expires.

A player in possession of Blue Buddy can:

• By default, drop or plant Blue Buddy by holding A
• Blue Buddy can only be planted while standing in a designated plant zone.

Once Blue Buddy is planted, a capture zone is spawned around it and extraction progress begins.

• Progress is tracked from 0%-100%.
  • At 100%, the team who owns the capture zone wins the round.

Capture zones are considered contested if both teams are inside the zone at the same time.

• Extraction progress continues in contested zones until 95% or above, at which point:
  • Extraction progress stops until the non-owning team steps out of the zone.
    • The non-owning team has a brief window to reenter the zone before extraction progress resumes.

Capture zones can change ownership.

• A team gains ownership by holding the zone uncontested.
• When zone ownership is changed, extraction progress resets.
  • If extraction progress was under 50% when ownership changed, progress resets to 0%.
  • If extraction progress was 50% or over when ownership changed, progress is set to 50%.

If neither team has planted Blue Buddy and time runs out, overtime begins. During overtime:

• Blue Buddy will automatically be placed at its original spawn location and a capture zone will spawn around it.
• The capture zone defaults ownership to the team in possession of Blue Buddy.
• If no team had possession, ownership is assigned at random.
• This capture zone adheres to the previously described rules.
