Here is a list of the rules for Devo Wars and how it differs from other gameplay modes:
Pick Mode:
- Everyone is Devourer!

How to Win:
- First team to 60 kills wins the game.
- Match will end at 20 minutes if 60 kills are not reached, awarding the win to the team with the higher number of kills.

Map:
- Devo Wars takes place on a very small map with a river in the middle you cannot walk across, but can get hooked across!
- Shops are located in the back-middle of each side.
- There is a large pillar in the middle of the map off of which the hooks will bounce.
- There are four posts on the map located on each corner near the river. These block movement, but not hooks or vision.
* These posts can be hit by the Grappling Hook if you buy the item.

Rules:
- The first 15 seconds of each game is the time to purchase items, during which a player cannot move or use abilities.
* There are sixteen items to choose from. Explore the options and see what you like the most!
- Each Devourer has only one ability: Chain Hook.
- Each of the following upgrades can be leveled any number of times, but you still cap at level 25.
- Chain Hook can be upgraded in four ways:
* Damage: Base of 250 and each level adds 15.
* Range: Base of 1600 and each level adds 120.
* Speed: Base of 1100 and each level adds 40.
* Touch Radius: Base of 70 and each level adds 5.
- Chain Hook bounces off walls.
- Hooking a Devourer that is being dragged by someone else will instantly kill (or deny) them!
- Respawn time lowered to ~3-5 seconds at all levels.
- When you respawn, you are invulnerable for 2.5 seconds.
- Runes spawn every 20 seconds and move down the river.
- Runes must be hooked to get their effects.
- Types of Runes:
* Time Rune: Grants +150 Movement Speed for 12 seconds.
* Electric Hook Rune: Your next hook will instantly kill the first enemy it hits. Don't miss!
* Bomb Rune: Puts a bomb buff on yourself. After 5 seconds, enemies around you take damage and are stunned.
* Split Hook Rune: Your next hook launches three Chain Hooks instead of one.
* Coin Rune: Instantly gives you +100 Gold.
