Because you and your team share lives, saving each other is just as important as going for chills. Try to avoid going solo and stick with someone if possible, so that someone is nearby to rescue you if you get foamed up.
If you’re unable to land any chills, switch to foaming up the map and supporting allies with their engages, as it’s better to switch focus to supporting than continuing to cost your team their lives.
Once their star player has been revealed, as long as you have remaining lives, then it’s time to throw everything you have at the enemy team’s star. They’ll likely be defending near their spawn point, so now is a great time to foam up the area to help ensure they cannot quickly surf away before they can be chilled. Without your pool of lives, be sure to keep an eye on your star player as you work towards the enemy; it’s very likely for someone to sneak behind them and steal the game away, but nothing is stopping you from doing the same thing!
Tips For Being The Star Player in Foamstars
If you’ve been marked as the Star Player, you have two options; the first is to stay near your team, so that any aspiring chillers have to go through your allies first. If your allies are respawning and you are being pushed towards your spawn, get to the high ground as quickly as possible, foaming up as much as you can. At this point, remember your goal is not to attack, but survive; your team will respawn if they are chilled, but the game ends if the same happens to you!
Try to spend your free time creating foam paths for escape, if need be. There’s always a chance someone will sneak up and get the jump on you, and it’s better to re-position than take the fight and risk losing the game.
Overtime
The only exception to this rule is during Overtime, as the arena will gradually close and force you to attack your opponents. With nowhere to hide, your only option is to go for broke and attack with your teammates; if you sit back and allow the arena to close, it’s very possible for your team to get eliminated, leaving you to deal with multiple enemies alone.
