Editing Tip Toe Finale

{{quote|Tiptoe Finale sees up to four [[squads]], well, tip-toeing their way to victory. You’ve got to be real careful with this one—coz one wrong step could send you tumbling into the cosmos. First to reach the [[Crown]] at the arena’s middle, wins.|Official blogpost ({{date|2022-09-12}})}}

'''{{PAGENAME}}''', also known as '''Tiptoe Finale''', is one of the [[levels]] in {{FG}}. It is a {{round|type|final}} level and was first introduced in [[Season 2]]. It was first revealed in a blog on {{date|2022-09-12}}.<ref>https://www.fallguys.com/en-US/news/fall-guys-season-2-satellite-scramble-announcement</ref>

==Course description==
This map features four islands serving as the starting locations for the participating squads. Each island has a bridge of [[Tile|tiles]] (8 tiles wide, 20 tiles long) connecting it to a central island, which possesses the [[crown]]. Much like the original Tip Toe round, some of the tiles can be walked on and others will disappear when stepped on, causing the player to tumble. Players must work together with their squadmates to determine the correct path across the tile bridge to reach the crown first.

The central island has a stack of four rotating rings with a [[Bumpers|bouncy]] surface, the crown ascending and descending above it. Each ring has blue platforms that must be jumped on to reach the flat surface on the top of the structure, from which the crown can be grabbed.

There are also four [[Cannon|cannons]] within the arena, each with an associated green button on the starting islands. Whenever a player steps on the button, the cannon will shoot a [[projectile]] onto the tile bridge belonging to their squad, showing whether the tiles it lands on are real or fake. The aim of the cannon oscillates back and forth, so timing is necessary to reveal the nature of specific tiles on the board.

In a contrived scenario, if 5 minutes passes without anyone grabbing the crown, the round times out and everyone is eliminated. In rare cases, because the game does not break ties, multiple players can win if the game adjudges them to have grabbed the crown at the same time.

== Course strategy ==
Unlike its predecessor {{round|link|Tip Toe}}, playing carefully is not recommended. Keep moving forward to reveal more and more of the path for you and your teammates. You can also try to jump-dive so your fall guy's arm hits the tile and revealing if its fake or not without falling and respawning back at  the start. Keeping track of where the path is in your head is recommended. Additionally, if you manage to catch a glimpse of your opponents, observe their path as well- every team's path is exactly the same, so if they are ahead, copy their movements.

Again, unlike Tip Toe, the last two rows of tiles may not always be in the same column. However, it is possible to bypass the last row of tiles entirely by jumping and diving. In addition, keep in mind that you can jump and dive across a gap of two tiles, which can help you reach the end of the path faster.

When you reach the center, climb up the rotating blocks. Keep in mind that you can jump and dive up to the third block from the first one, and from the third up to the top. Be sure to use the grab button to latch on to the crown for your squad!

== Known bugs ==
'''Player spawn overlap*'''
:As of {{date|2022-10-20}}, a bug could occur where multiple squads could spawn on the same area, with one player of each squad occupying 2 spawn points.
::This bug was exclusive to the Warped version of this round, and only available in [[Duos Show]].

'''No ending path*'''
:As of {{date|2023-10-03}}, a bug could occur where the last four rows of tiles would all be fake, making it impossible for players to reach the Crown, resulting into both teams losing. As the bug was only exclusive to [[Squads]], a content update removed the round from the show a day after being unvaulted.

==Trivia == 
*Concept art and an unused round icon that date back to [[Season 1]] were found, meaning that this round was originally intended to be added in earlier.
*Tip Toe Finale, along with {{round|link|Pixel Painters}}, are currently the only [[Squads Show|squad-exclusive]] rounds, and have never appeared in [[Solo Show]].
*During [[Season 2]], the tooltip to grab the crown never appears despite having the "Show Crown Grab Prompt" option turned on.
*As of {{date|2023-03-07}}, with the addition of [[The Vault]] show in [[Custom Show]], Tip Toe Finale is one of the three vaulted rounds in [[Season 3]] that are not available to be played at all. In this round's case, since that show is a Solo-based show and Tip Toe Finale is only supported in Squads, it is not available.
*As of the [[Fall Force Update]], Tip Toe Finale is the last Final round to be unvaulted, meaning all Finals are now present in the game.
*As of the Fall Force Update, the Squads version is currently using a third variant which looks similar to the Duos version, except there is only one gap and [[Hover Platform]], located in the middle of the tiles. This is most likely meant to be the [[Trios]] version.
