Duels Mode is now live
Earlier this month, Turnbound launched Duels Mode, a brand-new feature that allows players to save and share builds via a code and challenge friends or other players directly.
Duels also introduces Featured Builds created by members of the community and content creators, giving players the chance to test themselves against curated strategies from experienced players.
Duels Mode is available now in the demo and fully open to the public.
