After that, that person needs to draw the things that were told by the paper in 15 seconds. The other teammates cannot watch him or her. After 15 seconds, he/ she needs to ask his/her teammate in front to look at his/her drawings for 10 seconds and then facilitator needs to take the drawings. The teammate needs to draw based on what he/ she see and repeat the procedure until the last person. The last person needs to guess what is the drawing is about.

Basically, this game is a manifestation of dodgeball with unique rules. In a group, there will be a queen that must be protected because if she dies, everyone in the team will die. There is also a protector who will not die if balls hit him/ her and he/she cannot revive his/ her teammates. The other mates are normal players who can die if hit by the balls from opponents and can revive a friend that die if manage to catch the balls from opponents before the balls hit the ground. If the game becomes so intense, in the end, depend on the facilitator, the power of the protector can be taken back by the facilitator. There is no time limit. The teams will fight until final. There will be only 1 team win this game. It is like League of Soccer.
