We have now added the Custom Match mode, allowing you to play 2v2, 3v3, or 5v5 matches with your friends at any time!

The Custom Match mode includes two different options:

• Normal Match
• Tournament Match

[h2]Normal Match[/h2]

• A player creates a lobby and assigns a name to it.
• The system generates a code, which you can share with your friends so they can enter the lobby by entering the code.
• The lobby owner can also join the match by picking a character.
• With the "Fill with Bots" option, empty slots can be filled with AI-controlled bots.
• Once everyone presses "Ready", the lobby owner starts the match.

[h2]Tournament Match[/h2]

• The tournament lobby creator cannot join the match but can start the game.
• Spectator mode is currently in development and will be available soon.
• The system generates two separate team codes (Red Team and Blue Team).
• Players join their assigned teams by entering their designated team code.
• After all players have made their picks and pressed "Ready", the match host starts the game.

With this new feature, we can confidently say that tournaments are just around the corner! 🚀
