Timebomb Duels Cosmetics Guide

Cosmetic Types

Custom Trails game pass adds movement trail VFX. Kill effects change elimination visuals — Valentine 2026 brought Cupid's Arrow, Chocolate, and Heart Balloon; Independence 2026 added Eagle, Liberty, and Firework; June patches also expanded the base effect pool. Badges: Alpha stage badge unlocks Alpha Chat Tag; Beta badge planned for Beta stage players.

Earning vs Buying

Badges earned by playing during development stages. Trails purchased via pass. Event kill effects from limited-time participation (see Valentine 2026 and Independence 2026 pages). Beta shop will broaden options.

Competitive Clarity

Cosmetics do not enlarge hitboxes for advantage in intended design — trail effects are visual. Focus competitive practice separately from cosmetic collection.

Showcase Culture

Trails signal invested players in lobby — social flex without mechanical edge. Kill effects personalize highlight moments in clips and streams.
