Covert One Flag explained in Halo Infinite

The challenges for the Joint Fire event require you to play Joint Ops, which is Covert One Flag. This variant of CTF pits one team equipped with unlimited Active Camo, a Pulse Carbon, and the Sidekick against a team with unlimited Threat Sensors, an Energy Sword, and the Commando. The team with Active Camo must capture the flag while the team with Threat Sensors defends it. The game will rotate which team is which each round.

When playing as the attacking team, you will want to keep your distance and watch out for blind corners. Other players will likely be waiting with the Energy Sword. Stick together and communicate when you push the flag. Defending teams have a much easier job, as they can wait and score instant kills with the sword. Use your Threat Sensor often to locate the opposing team.
