| Short description | High stakes; attack and defend |
| Features | Competitive mode |
Terminal Attack is 5v5, single-life, attack-and-defend game mode in which contestants take turns delivering a decryption key to a terminal. Attackers are tasked with completing the decryption, while defenders must prevent it by any means necessary.
Revives are disabled in Terminal Attack, leaving contestants with only one life per-round. The Healing Beam and Defibrillator are unavailable, and Contestants can only regenerate a limited amount of health depending on their Build (150 health with the Heavy Build, 125 health with the Medium Build, and 100 health with the Light Build). Gadgets do not restock, so contestants should engage with caution and go in with a plan.
