The new Mass Survival Mode for has a unique respawn system - in the Gulag, you wait until you have fallen in a 1v1 match against a random opponent. Whoever lives has a second chance to live. You'll only have one chance to earn your own respawn, and if you're like me, you'll probably only win about 50% of those random matches.
This is because you are probably making some common mistakes. Mastered gamers know how to survive in this deadly game, and if you're aiming to improve your win / loss ratio, we've got some handy tips to keep in mind whenever you're in the Gulag - which is probably a lot.

The Gulag is where you go when you die in Warzone Battle Royale. After descending you will be drawn into the Gulag where you can watch the battles below. The timer at the top right counts down until you are placed in a 1v1 match. This is similar to Gun Game - both players receive an identical random load. The map is also randomized between three configurations.
At 40 seconds, a flag will appear in the center of the map. The first player to claim the flag will win. At 60 seconds, the match will end. Whoever takes the most damage will win - the damage is permanent and does not heal. If both players survive without killing each other, both players will earn a Redeployment Token.
This is how everything works. Now let's take a look at some of the best tips I've found so far.
#1: Push hard. Stay in the left / right lane and sprint over it. The trick is to rush them and move slowly - take action before unlocking the lethal / tactical throwables.
# 2: Push in the middle area, then enter ADS. You move more slowly, so they won't hear your footsteps. Pause in the center of the map to see if your enemy is rushing you too. If not, go for a sidewall.
# 3: You can practice your skills in the Gun game fashion. You will get a random loadout here, so it's all the gun fighting ability. Aiming for the head is important!
# 4: If you want to play safer, check your corners and wait for your Lethal / Tactical to unlock. Throw left with one, then right with the other. If you score a hit, you will see their location on the map.
# 5: Be careful with Lethal. These take longer to throw, so you'll get killed more often than not while trying to lob one. The tactics are much faster. Use it to check for an enemy's presence in an area if you don't know where they are.
# 6: Noobs will go for the flag, but smart players will watch the flag and take away anyone who tries to catch it. You can't shoot (or watch) while taking the flag, so it's always a tricky proposition.
#seven: Find out how to check the corners. Don't roll your whole body around corners. Crawl around corners so you won't be completely exposed when taking down an enemy. The more exposed your body is, the faster you will die.
