| Rumble and Ramble: |
| Map |
| Open randomly-generated maps (not caves) - preferably semi-complex/complex ones, without bridges.
Slighlty edited maps are allowed in order to open up closed parts of the map. MapGEN island maps are fine as long as they're not greater than 3000px in width and 800px in height. |

| 4 per team; 3 on mutual agreement |
Rumble and Ramble or RnR is a scheme similar to Aerial, but there's no Jet Pack, instead, there is infinite 2-star-powered rope that restricts the angle of the rope to 45º, being more difficult to use the rope on the 6 seconds of the scheme. Roping on randomly-generated islands makes the scheme a bit similar to Roper. The author of the scheme was also inspired by Hysteria, BnG and Elite, so the scheme can be considered a pot-pourri, a medley, or a megamix just like BWFWHRR scheme. Retreat from land is 3 seconds, retreat from rope is 6 seconds.

Tactics
- Hiding is very important. Keep in mind that RnR has a Fast Walk and Low Gravity.
- Given Mortar's powerful settings, it may be useful to keep it up to the Sudden Death. Aiming the Mortar below the worm's baseline yields better results as well. With LG, the clusters spread out over a considerable distance, so players have to be careful not to hit their own worm(s).
History
The scheme was created by Xrayez, and released on TUS in 27th May 2013. After this release, the author started to code a new game, with independant design, based on this Worms Armageddon scheme.
Competitive events
RnR was featured on 3 TUS cups (2013, 2014 and 2016) and also on a WO tournament in 2016.

The first TUS cup created for this scheme named "Rumble'N'Ramble - Experimental Cup" used the original version of the scheme. Months after this, it was updated (now with 6 seconds instead of 5, among other differences) for the second cup, thus being kept as the official and definitive version of the scheme.
