After 10 minutes, the Soul Urn spawns in one of two locations in the outermost lanes: beside the overhanging bridge at York Street (Yellow Lane) or beside the bridge at Park Avenue (Green Lane). The urn always spawns first on Yellow Lane at 10 minutes and alternates lanes every 5 minutes. However, if the urn is picked up ''before'' the next spawn time and delivered ''after'' (i.e. picked up before 15 minutes and delivered after), it does not spawn again until the next scheduled spawn time. It descends from the sky for 12 seconds before it can be picked up. A player can grab the landed urn by standing near its pickup range for 2 seconds. Being [[Melee Attack|melee]]'d or [[Stun|stunned]] while picking up the urn resets its pickup time, and the player cannot [[parry]] while picking it up.

While carrying the urn, the courier is affected in several ways:
While carrying the urn, the courier is affected in several ways:
* They get a [[Move Speed]] bonus of +3.5 m/s (capped at 15 m/s max), get their [[Sprint Speed]] disabled and have 100% [[Slow Resistance]] and 30% [[Damage Resistance|Bullet]] and [[Damage Resistance|Spirit Resist]].
* They get a [[Move Speed]] bonus of +3.5 m/s (capped at 15 m/s max), get their [[Sprint Speed]] disabled and have 100% [[Slow Resistance]].
* They are [[Status Effects#Disarmed|disarmed]], [[Status Effects#Silence|silenced]], and cannot use active items.
* They are [[Status Effects#Disarmed|disarmed]] and [[Status Effects#Movement Silence|movement silenced]].
** Channeled abilities and items started before picking up the urn, like {{HeroIcon|Ivy}}'s {{AbilityIcon|Air Drop}} and {{ItemIcon|Magic Carpet}}, are not interrupted. Abilities can still be activated for about half a second while picking up urn. {{HeroIcon|Viscous}} cannot carry as {{AbilityIcon|Goo Ball}}.

** While Ivy can no longer pick up the urn while activating her ult, she can still fly allies who are carrying it, or pick the urn up during ult if she stays over it while flying. The latter can be achieved by dropping the urn inside a room with a low roof to fly inside.

The courier can drop the urn at any time by pressing their [[parry]] key. A [[Melee Attack|melee attack]] (light or heavy) or any [[Status_Effects|stun]] from an enemy (including [[Trooper]]s) will also force the courier to drop it. If the urn is left on the ground for too long, it will walk back to its spawn point.

If the urn is left on the ground, it will wait for 13s if there's any player in a 25m radius, then it cannot be picked up anymore and will run back to its spawn point.
 
The team favored by the urn (see "Comeback mechanic" below) receives 50% bullet and spirit resist in a 60m radius of the urn while it's being carried and delivered.


'''Note:''' The Soul Urn's soul value is determined at the moment it spawns (e.g., 10:00, 15:00). Holding onto the urn for longer durations does not increase its value.

=== Drop-off location ===
=== Delivering the urn ===
The drop-off point is on the opposite side of the map, marked by a Soul Urn outline icon on the Minimap and colored red if an enemy player is currently carrying the urn. The urn is instantly turned in when the courier steps onto the drop-off (being in the air doesn't count).
The drop-off point is always in the center of the map, in the bridge over Blue lane. Any players near this area are revealed in the minimap, like the courier.
 
Once the courier drops off the urn, it starts a "Depositing" phase, the duration of which is based on the net worth of the courier's team (see "Comeback mechanic" below):
 
* Delivered by favored team (behind): 3s
* Delivered by neutral team: 5s
* Delivered by unfavored team (ahead): 10s


If a team is [[Soul Urn#The comeback mechanic|behind by a certain soul threshold]], the drop-off point moves closer to their side. This "favored" status is indicated by four floating green candles around the urn, and a green arrow over the urn pointing to the favored side in the minimap. For the leading team (drop-off on the enemy's side), the candles and minimap arrow are red.
A player on the enemy team can contest the urn during this phase by hitting a melee attack, switching to their team's timer and adding +1.25s to their timer.


The drop-off location is determined when an urn is first picked up by any player. Once determined, the drop-off point is fixed until the next urn spawn, even if the urn walks back to its spawn or the team soul difference changes.
The last player to contest the urn (or the courier if not contested) receives 3 [[Golden Statue]] buffs.


=== Anti-stalling mechanics ===
=== Anti-stalling mechanics ===
To prevent one team from holding the urn for too long without delivering it, the urn begins to deal [[Pure Damage]] to its courier for 1.5% of their max health per second and disables their [[Health Regen]] after carrying it for 45 seconds. Furthermore, if the urn is dropped after that point the courier's entire team is prevented from picking up the urn again for 12 seconds. The 45-second timer pauses if the urn is dropped and resets if the enemy team picks it up.
