What to study

The pause menu keeps the battle present while it asks the hard question: RESUME, PLAYER LIST and SETTINGS sit above SURRENDER and QUIT, and hovering SURRENDER explains the stakes in full (call a surrender vote for your team, the team forfeits the match, progression is still awarded through challenges and achievements). The dimmed battle, minimap and resources behind the menu show exactly what pausing suspends. The frame also carries the trailer's COMMUNITY FOCUSED FEATURES caption along the bottom. Frame at about 122.7s in the Sizzle 1.6 update Unrated trailer (Steam).
