Settings is the screen that lets players change various settings, such as the brightness of the game client, whether or not chat effects display, whether to accept aid or not, the volume of the music and sound effects, and much more.

While the settings tab allows players to quickly change their Control, Audio, and Display settings, players can change or toggle additional settings via the main settings interface, accessed by clicking the "All Settings" button on the bottom of the tab.

The main settings interface contains a toggle to show more/less information, a search bar to search for a specific setting, and a sub-list of settings in a specific category.
