Run Less, Win More: 7 Rules for Marathon's Extraction Shootout

TL;DR Summary
Marathon, Bungie’s new live-service extraction shooter, rewards planning over reflexes. The guide lists seven no-goes: stop sprinting around, don’t fight everything that moves, quit reloading Volt ammo after every burst, enter each match with a clear goal, don’t grab every item, don’t extract immediately after a quick loot run, and don’t overuse Rook runs or sponsor kits. Instead, pace yourself, manage ammo and shields, prioritize meaningful loot, and plan your next contract to improve your odds of surviving Tau Ceti IV.
