HoNiversary 1v1 Showdown
With each year's HoNiversary celebration comes coin bonuses, new in-game avatars, and of course, fun events. This year will feature a returning favorite: the 1v1 Team Showdown. Newerth's top squads have been invited to bring teams of five players to play 1v1 matches in a best-of-nine format. It will be up to the team to decide who starts the match, who can snipe their opponent, and who can anchor to bring home the win.
