2 Teams fight each other. Teams are fixed and cannot be switched unless someone leaves the match and someone else rejoins. But changing teams in an ongoing match is not possible
Maps are split into sub sections. Some have 3, some have 2. Both teams run the map. Generally the team currently with the highest score goes first. In the first section its random.
Only heroes can score points. Skaven can only deny points. When playing Skaven you want to kill everyone. The earlier you kill the enemy, the less points they score. As Heroes the goal is to reach the end with everyone alive. Generally, the faster you are the less chances skaven have to attack.
Processing through the map gives alot of points. Heroes that reach the end zone give 10 Points each. Therefore in certain situations its better to abandon a teammate and process through the map as it doesnt matter how many heroes proceed, the progression points are always the same. If a map section gives a total of 160 points for processing, failing to reach the end and only processing halfway would only net you 80 points but if a single hero makes it to the end you gain 170 (160 + 10 for hero alive) points. However the less you are the easier it is for the skaven to kill you
All specials and bosses are player controlled. So a boss is not going to behave as you would expect it to do in PvE. Same for specials. Control of specials give alot of freedom, so for example, you will not dodge a hookrat as a hero. The hookrat can adjust and still get you. Same for assassins. Assassins can steer during flight, so they can aim at you even if you dodge. That being said, pushes still work, so you can try to push an assassin, but due to delay through pings you will most likely take the initial pounce damage.
There are no properties or traits on weapons in versus. Talents do exist and work. Weapon balance is different than in other modes. However not going into detail here. Balacing is bad, there are absolutely useless choices or broken ones
Games might end early if a team has a huge lead and reaches a point where the team with lower points cannot score enough points for a tie. If both teams score the same points over all sections, the game ends in a tie, they are rare in quickplay but do exist

This should cover the basics of the mode.

3 points flicknote

You only get points on hero rounds.
During hero rounds, your objective is to push through the mission to earn points.
During Pactsworn rounds, your objective is to stop the enemy team (heroes) from progressing and therefore obtaining points. You are not giving them points, you're just limiting the amount they can get.

You just have to make it farther during hero rounds than they do. It's pretty confusing, I only figured the system out around versus rank 40.

40!?!

It goes up all the way to 250 but it's just a cosmetic side badge next to the icon frame of your character. I think I'm around the same Rank but I've stopped once I've got all the Weapon Illusions I wanted from Versus since there's no matchmaking.

It's 1 Round as Skavens and 1 Round as Heroes

Don't worry too much about winning/losing anyway, winning is 100 points and the win of the day is 500.
Main points simply come from just playing or achieving challenges Okri's Challenges.
