Best weapons, power positions, and loadouts for Construction.
Last updated: August 14, 2026
Construction Overview
Construction is a medium, mirrored build site with a crane on one side and a red crate dangling in the center. You spawn on the second floor of an L-shaped area, diagonal from your opponent. The map is full of gaps between wooden planks and holes you can fall through, which makes moving around tricky — but the crane gives you a climbable route to high ground, and there are blimps you can reach too. A Jump Shard sits at the very top of the crane.
