[h2]Rocket Battle Ranked Mode[/h2]


    The EMP has been redesigned to also deal with infantry! However, these new developments still require testing. Try out the prototype EMP Launcher during the new Rocket Battle ranked event and blow your opponent away.

    Rocket Battle is a brand new, limited time mode with a leaderboard, ranked rewards, achievements, and a completely new gameplay experience! All players are limited to a modified EMP Launcher with increased damage, a knife, a stun grenade, and a blade drone; making for Ironsight’s most explosive game mode yet.
