Soul Urn

The Soul Urn is an object in the game that spawns at the 10 minutes mark and respawns at every 5 minute interval afterwards.

Players can choose to pick up the urn and deliver it to the other soul urn location on the other side of the map. Doing so will grant the team who delivered the urn some soul orbs, a Golden statue buff; the courier is granted an Ability Point, as well as additional souls.

The urn will respawn after delivery on the side it was delivered to.

Carrying the Soul Urn

After 10 minutes has elapsed in a match, the Soul Urn will spawn in one of two positions located in either of the two outermost lanes; beside the overhanging bridge at York Street (Yellow Lane) or beside the bridge at Park Avenue (Purple Lane). It will start by descending slowly from the sky, and can only be grabbed after fully landing, which takes 30 seconds. Once landed, standing near the urn will cause the player to pick it up over 2 seconds. The player carrying the urn will be silenced.

While carrying the urn, the urn courier will gain +2m/s Sprint Speed (+6m/s if on the losing team), but be completely disarmed and silenced. The courier is revealed on the minimap to the enemy team 20 seconds after picking it up. Couriers are also incapable of riding ziplines or taking teleporters, forcing them to run directly to the urn drop off point.

The courier can choose to drop the urn at any moment by pressing their Parry key.

A heavy melee attack or any stun from an enemy will also force the courier to drop the urn. Dropped urns can be collected by any player, including the enemy team, and will walk back to its spawn point if left on the ground for too long.

The Urn's drop-off point is on the opposite side of the map, indicated by a small green box on the minimap. If one team is in the lead (measured by soul count), the drop-off point will be closer to the losing team's side. It takes 2 seconds to properly drop off the urn, which then rewards the courier's team with soul orbs and additional bonuses. When the opposing team is carrying the Soul Urn, the green drop off box will appear red.

• The Urn is also referred to as the Spirit Jar in some file paths and voice lines.
