How to Play[]
Use your skills to push or pull enemies into danger (your torpedoes, distortion bombs, turrets, allied players, asteroids, etc.)
Electronic Warfare can catch someone at half or no throttle, allowing Tractor Beam to easily reel them in and/or hold them in place (perhaps on top of a Distortion Bomb).
Beware of Torpedoes - you may have to abort a tractor attempt by moving.
Do not tractor players you cannot deal with, and do not tractor players in the vicinity of heavily damaged teammates.
A planted Distortion Bomb on a Wormhole can destroy incoming enemies, especially if you use Electronic Warfare or Stasis Field before the enemy can throttle up.
Using the ultimate in conjunction with a Distortion Bomb in the center can get you many kills.

Ultimate[]
Gravitational Singularity
Type: Experimental
The player creates a gravitational singularity at his location. The gravitational singularity has a field effect of 30 units, with a gravitational force of 9 units per second pull. All ships caught within its area of influence are pulled to its center, doing damage. The force of the pull and the damage dealt are reduced the further away from the center the ship is. Ships in the very center will take 100 points of damage per second. The gravitational singularity lasts 30 seconds.
Cooldown: 300 seconds
