The bluezone just got a little more deadly for the Global Invitational. Players will have to move faster to stay within the limits of the blue circle, or they will suffer much more damage compared to a normal match. The amount of damage will be increased starting from the very first phase: what was .4% (damage per tick) will now be .6% and so on each phase. To avoid this, speed and efficiency will be the most important factors from the very beginning.
