Oddball: Blood of heroes

game type: team oddball
victory: hold the ball one minute, best of 5 rounds
sheilds: none
mega damage with ball: on
weapons: magnums

The name comes from a Rutger Hauer movie that centers on a sport where the main idea is to kill the guy with the ball. Sound familiar?

The idea behind this game type is to get as much close quarter action and flowing blood as possible. The short ball time and increased number of rounds would hopefully make it feel like a real sporting event.

This actually plays very well on Foundation. You usually end up with the ball in one of the rooms and things get really bloody.

Tried a varient with plasma pistols instead of magnums on Burial Grounds, but it didn't work so hot.
