Pay-to-Spawn
LIVEA high-risk mode where every spawn costs WW3. Outsmart opponents, preserve your bank, and decide when it's worth re-entering the fight.
Each time you respawn, it costs from your WW3 balance. Careless deaths drain your bank; disciplined play preserves it. The tension between staying alive and staying aggressive defines every fight.
Outscore the enemy before the round ends — but every respawn spends WW3, so the team that fights smart and dies less comes out ahead.
The economy is the mode — every life has a literal cost, so positioning and patience matter more than in any other mode.
- Treat every life like it's your last — because it costs you.
- Let a medic revive you instead of paying to respawn.
- Play the angles; don't trade recklessly.
- Know when your bank can't afford another push.
How to win Pay-to-Spawn
Pay-to-Spawn puts a price on every death — each respawn costs WW3, so ego is the fastest way to go broke. Prioritise survival over the highlight, take only the fights you're set up to win, and treat your bank like the real objective. Anchor a cheap, defensible hold where you rarely need to re-buy in, and let the reckless players spend themselves out of the match.
- Risk management
- Survival prioritization
- Engagement discipline
- Cost awareness

Strongest on maps with cheap, anchorable holds where you rarely need to re-buy in.
- Spawn on your squad, not on base — every squad spawn puts you back in the fight and holds the ground you took.
- Move as a fireteam of two or three; a lone push feeds the enemy, a stacked one breaks a hold.
- Cover the roles — keep a Support for ammo, a Medic for revives, and an Engineer for armor.
- Call the rotation before you take it; a coordinated flank beats a faster solo run every time.
Every respawn costs WW3 — preserve your bank and pick your re-entries carefully.
When you fall behind: stop trading in the open. Consolidate onto a defensible cluster of objectives, deny the easy points, and make the enemy overextend to reach you — the bleed reverses when they break formation.
