This round is a [[Team]] round and was first introduced in the beta version of the game. According to the game website, ''Fall Ball'' was designed by Joseph Juson. == Course description == === Standard version === Fall Ball is a 2-way team game. Fall Ball takes place on a soccer field, with two nets on opposite sides where the goals must be scored. The players are divided in groups, blue team and yellow team, and must have scored the most goals when the timer runs out. Compared to normal soccer however, there are two [[Ball|balls]] on the field instead of one, and these balls are much larger than the fall guy. When a ball is knocked into a team's goal, the opposing team scores a goal, and a short while after another ball falls from the sky to the center of the field. The balls are often normal soccer balls, but occasionally will be an American football or a banana with more unpredictable physics, or more rarely a [[Egg (item)|golden egg]] (worth 5 points if scored). The balls at the very start of the match will always be normal soccer balls. If a player falls into the goal, they will respawn at the center of the field. The team with the most goals after 2:00 (1:30 in Squads modes) moves on to the next round. ==== Overtime ==== If both teams are tied when the timer runs out, the round will go into overtime, ending when the first team scores a goal. In an extremely contrived scenario, if both squads remain tied after 9 minutes '''with a "0-0" score only''', the round times out and both teams will be awarded the win. If both squads remain tied after 9 minutes '''with a score different than "0-0"''', the round times out and only one team (randomly chosen by the server) will be awarded the win. === Alternate versions === From the {{date|2020-09-15}} [[Season 1 (Legacy)]] mid-season update, these variants can occur instead of the standard one: * [[Rotating Hammer]]s may be added near the corners of the arena. * A [[Spinning Plate]] may be added in the center of the arena. * A [[pendulum]] may be added in front of each net, creating a sort of sometimes involuntary goalkeeper that can save goals from being scored (by the way in this version the obstacles are not present) **This variant is guaranteed to appear in the [[Golden Goal Challenge]] playlist. ***[[Rotating Hammer|Hammers]] and [[Pendulum|pendulums]] are mirrored (each side has the same number) * 4 balls will be in play, instead of 2. As of the [[Season 3 (Legacy)]] mid-season update, the following variants may appear: * A [[Slingus Flingus]] may appear in front of each goal. <ref>https://twitter.com/FallGuysGame/status/1355931164670889984</ref> * [[Punching Glove|Punching gloves]] may appear on each corner of the map. **These gloves follow a 12-second cycle: 4 seconds receded, 4 seconds ejecting out, and 4 seconds receding. *A [[pegwin]] has a chance of spawning in at the start of the round. You can't score these for points; they are only here as an Easter egg. <br /> During [[Season 2]] only, and only in [[Satellite Scramble Shows|core shows]], the following variants would appear: * A Low Gravity zone may be present in the center of the arena. * Two [[Thruster|thrusters]] may be present on each side of the arena, near the goals. * One [[Conveyor Belt|conveyor belt]] may appear on each side of the arena, changing directions back and forth. * A Low Gravity zone might be surrounding the entire arena. === Golden Goal Challenge === {{main|Golden Goal Challenge}} *In this special playlist: **Fall Ball only lasts 5 seconds before heading into Overtime. === Warped Fall Ball === {{Main|Wormhole Wanderers}} In this version of Fall Ball: * Tiny static wormholes at the corners of the arena leading to the opposite corners are present. * At each goal, there are multiple large red wormholes - one stationary wormhole at the top bar, and one lower moving wormhole, moving back and forth in front of the goal. Should the ball pass through one of these wormholes, they will teleport and emerge from the other wormhole on the same side. == Course strategy == === Standard version === As is the case in normal football/soccer, make sure there are players both attacking and defending. When the ball spawns in, a shadow on the floor of the field signifies its landing position. If the player hits the ball as it spawns, at the correct angle and in the direction of the opponents' net, the ball will be flung with considerable height and speed, making it more difficult for the opponent team to anticipate and save (and can potentially earn an easy goal). This won't always work as the opposing team might have the same idea, resulting in a stalemate where the ball travels with vastly reduced speed. The American Football and banana have slightly different physics, making them trickier to hit. The golden egg is rare, but when it appears, you must work hard not to let it into your goal at all costs. Be warned that the higher the ping, the harder it is to knock a ball. Try to play as an attacker if that is the case; defending is much harder on higher ping, especially if a ball is flying at you at a high velocity. As Fall Ball is a relatively late team game, this also ends up being one of the more luck-based ones - you'd have to hope you get a good team. === Alternate versions === *The spinning hammers, depending on their spin direction, can be used to help push the ball away from goal, or closer to the goal, depending on where it hits the ball. Pay close attention and try finding scenarios to utilise it. *The spinning platform will make it slightly harder to judge where the ball lands in the center, after a goal is scored. It can be used to gain some momentum. *The pendulum can either be a lifesaver or a huge annoyance, as it has a decent chance of knocking a ball away from being scored. *Prepare for absolute madness with four-ball Fall Ball. *The balls do not appear to trigger the Flinguses; use the flinguses for slightly faster map traversal (to save the ball, for example). *Fully ejected punching gloves can make it harder to score, or to knock the ball to safety. If the ball gets hit by an ejecting glove, it will fly with large force, so be careful as the balls can go crazy when that happens. *You know what to do. Grab the pegwin and jump (or chuck it) into the goal! (No, you won't actually score a goal.) **Jokes aside, throwing the pegwin into the goal is all but recommended, especially if your teammate would rather hold the pegwin than play the round properly. ===Golden Goal Challenge=== With very little time before Overtime, getting a good kick-off at the start can prove to be very crucial, as you do not have much time to move into position to defend the goal. == Course changes == From [[Season 1 (Legacy)]] mid-season update: * The time is lowered from 2.30 to 2.00 (for every version) From [[Season 2 (Legacy)]] mid-season update: * As with the American football and giant [[Egg (item)|golden egg]], a banana can now spawn replacing the footballs. From [[Season 2]]: *The appearance of the soccer balls has been changed: from white hexagons with bronze pentagons to silver hexagons with with bronze pentagons, giving them a more metallic look overall. == Known Bugs == ;High-scoring Bananas* : ''As of {{date|2020-09-25}}:'' Due to the elongated shape of the banana, if it falls into the goal net in a very specific manner (with one end inside the goal and the other end still out), it may score multiple points. ;No starting shadows* : As of [[Season 2]], the starting balls will lack a shadow, making it difficult to predict where they'll land when they are up in the air. Subsequent balls that spawn after the first ones are scored will have a shadow and work as normal. ::This bug has been fixed on [[Season 4]]. ;Out of Bound Balls* : Much like in [[Hoarders]], sometimes, a ball has a small chance of being sent too high and is likely to go outside the map, forcing the players to play the round with one or more balls missing. :: This bug is exclusive to the variation, with 4 [[Ball|footballs]]. <nowiki>*This name is a conjectural name and has not been somewhat uniformly agreed upon.</nowiki> ==Medal thresholds== *Gold - Scored 10 or more goals and qualified *Silver - Scored 5-9 goals and qualified *Bronze - Scored 3 or 4 goals and qualified *Pink - Scored 1 or 2 goals and qualified *No medal - Eliminated ==History== {| class="wikitable" |+History of Fall Ball !Season !Status !Map Theme |- |Beta |'''Active''' |Standard |- |[[Season 1 (Legacy)]] |'''Active''' |Standard and alternate versions |- |[[Season 2 (Legacy)]] |'''Active''' |Standard and alternate versions |- |[[Season 3 (Legacy)]] |'''Active''' |Standard and alternate versions |- | [[Season 4 (Legacy)]] |'''Active''' |Standard and alternate versions |- |[[Season 5 (Legacy)]] |'''Active''' |Standard and alternate versions |- |[[Season 6 (Legacy)]] |'''Active''' |Standard and alternate versions |- |[[Season 6 (Legacy)|Season 6.3 (Legacy)]] |'''Active''' |Removed from Main Show as of {{date|2022-05-10}}.
