Everything you need on the court: controls, positions, abilities & sub-abilities, official teams, match fixtures, hair color rerolls, ranked seasons and community rules — kept in one place by the dev team.
Controls, the 5-1 position system, scoring format and the automatic referee that keeps matches fair.
PC controls shown — mobile and controller layouts are configurable in-game settings.
Type :bots in your private server to bring in SetterBot, BlockerBot and SpikerBot — use them anytime to warm up or learn a role.
FVL runs a formal 5-1 system. Every player has an assigned position, and rotations shift who's at the net vs. in the back row as the match goes on. Six players on court, always including:
*One of each pair can be swapped for a Defensive Specialist or Libero. Liberos sub in only for the 2nd middle after they serve and their team loses the point. A Defensive Specialist can cover any single position — once that player rotates to front row, the DS waits for them to rotate back before subbing in again.
Matches are played in sets, with each team's live score and set count shown on the scoreboard. A set ends at 25+ points with a 2-point lead.
Fouls are called automatically — illegal spikes, net touches and approach-run violations are all detected without a human ref. An unexpected call is the AutoRef enforcing the rules, not a bug. Genuine bug? See the Rules section below.
Every character runs one core ability — passive ones apply automatically, active ones trigger on a key press. Each core ability has a pool of 3 sub-abilities; only one from that pool is equipped at a time, and it can be rerolled for another from the same pool.
No abilities or sub-abilities match that search.
Height is rolled on spawn and trades off jump, hitboxes, diving and stamina. Hair color is purely cosmetic and works the same way — rolled from a pool, rerollable any time.
Higher jump, larger reception hitbox, more diving slide, more stamina — but smaller spiking, setting and blocking hitboxes.
Lower jump, smaller reception hitbox, less stamina (10 minimum) — but larger spiking, setting and blocking hitboxes.
Community rules are kept short and easy to scan — full details are always current in Discord.
Macro and scripting detection is active in FVL and can lead to bans. Play fair — that's the short version.
