If you flipped a losing siege in Cyphers with one team fight, you will want to show it to the friends who were there. Cyphers became a DOR 'full-play recording' game in the October 2026 app update. When you launch the game, DOR detects it and keeps everything from launch to exit as one video. A few normal matches, a few ranked matches, and the time you spent in the plaza in between all land in a single file. This guide covers how to find team fights and tower kills quickly in that long recording, trim them, and send them.
Remember it records per session, not per match
A Cyphers recording does not stop when a match ends; it continues until you close the game. If you played all evening, the recording is just as long, and finding a moment takes longer. When a memorable match happens, simply note which match number it was and it becomes much easier to find later. The basics of setting precise start and end points are in the guide to trimming game clips.
Finding a team fight in a Cyphers recording and sending it
- 1Check recording status, then launch CyphersConfirm Cyphers is on under 'Full-play recording' in DOR settings, then launch the game. Automatic detection starts recording, and it continues as one video while you move between the plaza and matches until you close the game.
- 2Use Twilight Plaza to mark match boundariesTwilight Plaza appears between every match. Scrub the timeline quickly and find where the plaza shows up; that splits the recording into matches and lets you jump straight to the match number you noted.
- 3Find turning points with the tower health gaugeAt the top center of the siege screen, a gauge shows allied and enemy tower health and the time remaining. Wherever that gauge swings hard to one side is usually a team fight or a tower kill, so start checking 30 seconds before it.
- 4Include the standoff before the team fightA clip that starts mid-fight does not show why you won. Keep the few seconds where both teams size each other up, and your friend will understand the engage and the ultimate combo more easily.
- 5Pick a ratio for where it is goingFor a ranked review that needs the minimap and tower gauge, 16:9 fits best. For a short clip that only shows a character combo up close, cut to 9:16 so it looks good on a vertical screen.
- 6Paste the dor.gg link in party chatChoose a ratio in the library trim tool and save, and a dor.gg link is created. Paste it in your party or clan chat and the people you played with can play it in a browser without installing anything.
Cyphers siege phases and how to cut them
| Phase | Clue in the recording | Length and who to send it to |
|---|---|---|
| Early lane skirmish | Right after the match starts, when allies and enemies first meet on the minimap | The friend who shared your lane, 15-20 s |
| Team fight comeback | Where your tower health stops dropping and the enemy tower health starts to fall | Your ranked party, 40-60 s including lead-in |
| Tower kill | The moment the enemy tower health in the top-center gauge drops sharply | The whole team, 10-20 s |
| Ultimate combo | Several allies gather in one spot and quick voice lines fire in a row | The friend who linked the combo, 10-15 s |
| Annihilation finish | The last minute on the small symmetrical map as the kill count nears the target | The friend you played the event match with, 30-40 s |
| Ranked win result | After the match ends and the result screen shows, just before returning to the plaza | Your ranked duo, 5-10 s |
Before you send
- Cyphers is on under 'Full-play recording' in settings.
- I noted which match number the memorable match was.
- The team fight clip includes a few seconds of the standoff.
- The ranked review clip is cut in 16:9 so the minimap stays visible.
- The tower kill clip includes the moment the gauge drops.
- I have comfortably more than 20GB of free disk space.
How DOR records Cyphers
DOR is a free Windows desktop app. Launch Cyphers and it detects the game and records until you quit, as one mp4 video; it does not cut kills or tower kills into automatic highlights. You find the moment in the app library, trim it, and choosing 16:9, 9:16 or 1:1 gives you a dor.gg link to share. For shaping combo clips for vertical screens, see how to make a vertical game video, and for posting a trimmed clip right away, see DOR One-Click Share. Game sound and microphone are recorded together, so the call you shouted right before the fight stays in. On days you do not want Cyphers recorded, switch it off per game under 'Full-play recording' in settings; a confirmation prompt appears when you do.
