Understanding the Clan System
The Clan update in Murder Duels allows players to team up under a unified banner. This feature is essential for competitive play, enabling groups to queue together, represent a specific tag, and establish a visual identity. Before you can add a clan picture, you must first establish the clan itself.
Video Highlights:
- Clans allow players to team up under one tag.
- Creating a clan costs 5,000 in-game currency.
- You can recruit friends and customize your clan tag.
- The feature is accessible from the main menu interface.
Ensure you have saved at least 5,000 currency before attempting to create a clan. This is a one-time fee for the initial creation.
| Feature | Description | Cost/Requirement |
|---|---|---|
| Creation Fee | One-time payment to form the group | 5,000 Currency |
| Custom Tag | Unique text identifier for your clan | Free (Set at creation) |
| Clan Logo | Visual emblem for your group | Free (Upload required) |
| Recruitment | Ability to invite other players | Free |
Step-by-Step: Creating Your Clan
Before you can customize your group's appearance, you need to officially form it. Follow this workflow to get started.
Accumulate Funds
Play matches, specifically 2v2 modes, to grind for the 5,000 currency required. Focus on getting kills and winning rounds to maximize your income per match.
Access the Menu
From the main lobby, locate the "Clans" button. This is usually found on the side or bottom of the screen, often highlighted during special events.
Create the Clan
Click "Create Clan". You will be prompted to enter a unique Clan Tag (short abbreviation) and a full Clan Name. Confirm the purchase for 5,000 currency.
Enter Management Mode
Once created, the button will change to "Edit Clan" or "Manage Clan". This is your hub for all future customizations, including the picture upload.
Keep your clan tag short (3-4 characters). This ensures it fits neatly above your character's head and in the lobby scoreboard without overlapping other UI elements.
How to Add a Clan Picture
Once your clan is active, adding a visual identifier is the next step. While the specific UI menu for image uploading is found within the Clan Management screen, here is the standard procedure for applying a custom logo.
Open Clan Settings
With your clan created, interact with the Clan board or menu again. Select the "Edit" or "Customize" option associated with your active clan.
Select the Emblem Slot
Look for a default icon or a blank slot labeled "Clan Logo", "Icon", or "Banner". Click on this slot to prompt the file selection window.
Upload Image File
Navigate to your device's folders. Select a high-quality image file (usually .png or .jpg formats are supported).
Confirm and Save
Preview the image to ensure it looks good on the banner background. Click "Save" or "Confirm" to apply the changes to your clan profile.
For the best results, use a square image (1:1 aspect ratio) with a transparent background if possible. This ensures the logo looks sharp on both the lobby banner and the in-game player tag.
| Image Format | Recommended Use | Visibility |
|---|---|---|
| PNG (Transparent) | Best for logos/icons | High (Blends with backgrounds) |
| JPG (Solid) | Good for full banners | Medium (May have borders) |
| Recommended Size | 512x512 pixels | Optimal clarity |
Managing and Recruiting
After setting up your visuals, the next phase is building your team. A clan picture helps in branding, making your group recognizable in public 2v2 lobbies.
Recruitment Strategy
- Advertise in Lobby: Use the public chat to mention your clan is recruiting.
- Skill Matching: Look for players with high levels (e.g., Level 50+) in your matches.
- Team Synergy: Test potential recruits in 2v2 modes before inviting.
Clan Identity
- Uniform Loadouts: Encourage members to use similar knife skins or colors.
- Tag Rep: Ensure all members wear the clan tag in public matches.
- Logo Visibility: Your new picture will appear on the clan leaderboard.
A recognizable logo intimidates opponents. When players see a coordinated team with a custom emblem, they often assume a higher level of communication and skill.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I change the clan picture after I upload it?
Yes, you can change the clan logo at any time by returning to the Edit Clan menu. There is typically no additional cost to update the picture after the initial creation fee.
Q: Why can't I find the option to upload a picture?
You must be the **Clan Leader** or an officer with management permissions. If you are just a member, you cannot change the clan picture. Ensure you have purchased the clan creation for 5,000 currency first.
Q: Does the clan picture appear in-game during matches?
The clan **Tag** (text) appears above your character's head in-game. The full clan **Picture** is primarily visible in the lobby, leaderboards, and clan menus.
Q: What is the best image size for the clan logo?
A square resolution of **512x512 pixels** is recommended. This ensures the image is sharp enough for the lobby banner without being too large a file to upload.
