LEARN TO PLAY
Super Squad may be hectic and fast paced - but there's method in the madness! Check out our guide below to get you launching missiles and wiping out enemies like nobody's business
THE BASICS
TROOPERS
Each Trooper has unique abilities, stats, and an assigned role to play on the Squad: Damage, Tank, Support, or Healer. Having a balanced team composition will give you maximum chances at success!
For information on individual Troopers, click below:
SHARDS AND PASSIVES
Shards are the currency used to buy Passive Abilities at the in-match store. In each match, players start with 0 Shards and earn them through actions such as getting a kill, picking up a Launch Key, or destroying a Power Relay. Shards are also acquired passively over time.
Once enough Shards have been collected, players can buy up to two Passive Abilities for their Trooper; these are abilities that are triggered by meeting certain conditions such as getting a kill or being within a certain distance of enemies.
GAME MODE
The name of the game is Missile Strike. The game starts in the Key Phase, where you and your Squad must collect and hold 10 Launch Keys from around the map by destroying Drop Pods that fall from the sky, or killing enemies to steal their keys.
After one team has 10 keys, the Missile Phase starts! The team with 10 keys must defend 4 Power Relays for 2 minutes to ensure their launch. The other team must try their hardest to take down the relays and abort the launch!
Once one team has launched 2 missiles at the enemy base, that base is destroyed and the game is over.
