Carnotaurus

Gameplay guide

This profile gathers useful information for choosing this dinosaur, understanding its role, and preparing a Gateway session.

Play style

Straight-line pursuer

Carnotaurus plays as a straight-line predator. It chooses when the fight starts, forces the target to respect its speed, then converts a clean route into knockdown or stagger. The trap is thinking speed alone is enough: a good Carno always plans the exit, saves stamina, and refuses dense forests where its turning radius becomes a weakness.

Features

Active abilities

Left click

Primary bite

Simple left click remains the basic bite. Carno does not want to stay locked in contact for long, but it needs this bite to finish a knocked target, punish a failed dodge, or defend while it recovers its angle.

Hold right click + left click

Charged headbutt

Headbutt is triggered by holding right click and pressing left click while held. It can be used while standing or running, and depending on charge time and relative target size, it can stagger or knock down. This is the tool that turns a good straight line into a real punish window.

Run + clear lane

Charge lane

Carno has to prepare its line before committing. Speed is its weapon, but it needs readable terrain: choose the axis, keep an exit after impact, and avoid trees, rocks, or sharp turns that turn the charge into a gift for the opponent.

Alt + left click

Fast low bite

The alternate left-click attack is a faster, lower bite that costs stamina. It is mainly used to catch a small target, defend after a pass, or take a quick hit without restarting a full charge.
