Halo: Combat Evolved/KoTH

King of the Hill (often abbreviated to "KotH") is a mode where you have to control a predefined or changing territory on the map. It can be played in teams or not.

At the end of the round, the team/player which has spent the greatest amount of time as king of the hill (i.e. in control of the territory) wins.

Note that killing someone doesn't give you any points in this mode.

KotH Vanilla
Control the hill for a certain amount of time (originally two minutes) and you win. The hill doesn't move, and your starting weapon is a plasma pistol.

Team KotH
Same rules as Vanilla. The only difference is that you are in teams.

Crazy KotH
Same rules as Vanilla, except the hill changes its place after a certain amount of time (orginally one minute). Be the first to control the hill for 2 minutes to win the crown.

Team Crazy KotH
Team version of the Crazy KotH. First team to rack up two minutes wins.

KotH Pro
Your starting weapons are different: Assault rifle, pistol and a few frags to make your king term a bit shorter.

Tips

 * Team KotH: Have 1 ally inside on the hill and the other ally outside to shield the "king" with a sniper.
 * Every KotH
 * Close-range weapons are your best bet in making your term longer. The reason why is that the closer the enemy is, the enemies chances of getting killed is increased.
 * Due to the king area as just a ring, not a detector, you can use active camouflage to surprise your enemies attacking/defending the hill.
