'''Oddball''' is a [[multiplayer]] game-type featured in the [[Halo series]]. The objective is to locate the [[Skull]](s) on the map and to maintain possession of it for the longest period of time possible. The default settings allow the game to be a free for all with one Skull on the map, which you need to have possession of for two minutes in order to win. This game can be played as a Rumble Game or a Team Game where the highest score of the lone player (Free-For-All), or on a team's accumulative score, chooses the victor(s). Normally, a player who has the Oddball is the immediate target for the other players, which is what makes Oddball an extremely fast paced and fun game-type. While a player has possession of the Oddball, they cannot wield their weapons or throw [[grenade]]s. However, they can still [[melee]] opponents with the Skull, which normally inflicts massive damage. The settings for the game can also be altered to make it more interesting. For example, the player with the Oddball can go invisible or can be slowed down. The number of Oddballs on the map can also be changed. Oddball in [[Halo 3]] is the same and looks just like the Skulls of [[Halo 2]].
