A Cesta is a weapon used by programs almost exclusively in a ring game. It's function is very similar to the jai alai cesta; to throw a ball at high speed against a wall and rebound the ball. In this case, the digital cesta is used to catch an energy ball and throw it at a ceiling. The opponent tries to catch the ball with his/her cesta and throw it back to their opponent in the same fashion. If one of the players of the ring game fails to catch the ball with the cesta, the ball will hit one of the segmented ring of their platform and derez (disappear). The player then must have to avoid the newly-made gap in their platform until the remainder of the game. Players who fail to do so, will fall to their death.
