How to play Moonshot
01
Switch your goal
Common vs Blue Moon uses two categories. For each category, name three common answers and then three rare answers.
02
Aim at the requested tier
The Ladder gives four requested rarity tiers. Match the tier rather than simply choosing the rarest answer.
03
Watch the clock and combo
Common answers allow 15 seconds, rare answers 30. The Ladder allows 30 seconds. Speed and combo can affect points.
Moonshot scoring
In rare-answer rounds, base points rise from Common 5 to Uncommon 20, Rare 40, Legendary 60, Mythic 80 and Blue Moon 100. In The Ladder, an exact tier earns 100, one tier away 40, two away 15 and three or more away 0.
