During the last 20 seconds of Phase 8, it will stop moving and begin to shrink the safe zone to nothing - Phase 9. Phase 7 has an indicator for the new center of the storm, while Phase 8 moves randomly. In regular and Zero Build playlists, it will close until Phase 7, where it fully moves in Phase 8 and 9. It fully moves in Phases 6, 7, 8, and fully closes in phase 9. In Arena and Competitive matches, the Storm can move half in the existing Storm Eye and half outside during phase 5. The White line indicates the direct path to the next Storm circle and the Blue line indicates the direct path to the safe zone when in The Storm. This is indicated by the minimap, which also shows the shortest direct path to be safe from The Storm. Players will always be aware of when and where The Storm Eye is shrinking to.
