Run combat at the table without paper. Add every player character and monster, roll initiative with their Dexterity modifier, and step through turns and rounds.

How initiative works in D&D 5e
When combat begins each combatant rolls a d20 and adds their Dexterity modifier (and any bonuses such as the Alert feat). Players act from highest to lowest. Ties are broken by higher Dexterity score; further ties are decided by the DM. The order persists for the whole encounter — at the end of the last combatant's turn, a new round starts and the top of the order acts again.
