[h2]Store Update 7.11.0 [/h2][p][/p][p]Welcome to all the new players who have been entering the Arena lately! And thank you to all the veteran Contestants who have been welcoming them and showing them the ropes. Don’t forget to take advantage of the Recruit and Rise program, that will help both Recruiters and Prospects gain cool rewards, bragging rights, and a nice smooth introduction to THE FINALS! [/p][p]We’re hard at work on Season 8, but this week, we’ve got a new addition to the store.[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p]Out of ideas? Never. Out of materials? Maybe.[/p][p]Cardbored to Death is this week’s beautifully corrugated addition to the storefront, a full set of improvised armor, duct tape and all, for the contestant who crafts chaos from cardboard. Built for budget, styled for battle. The Folded Line Model skin brings paper-cut precision, or maybe cardboard bluntness, to every takedown. And if pixels are more your thing, the 8-bit Blades Set slices its way into the store. Forged in a low-res world for high-stakes play, these retro-inspired Dual Blades pair nostalgia with impact.[/p][p][/p][h3]THE CLASH FOR CASH CONTINUES [/h3][p]The final countdown is ticking down on the HEAD 2 HEAD event!
