Ready up on the plate, slugger! You might have a bat in hand, but you're playing catcher, too!




Another Fortress Faceoffs event is starting soon, so get yourself a ticket to the front row! A unique game mode is in play, combining an American classic with another sport of unknown origin! That's right, it's baseball-dodgeball season! Teams of five Scouts will compete against one another with only one hit of health, taking their pick of skillful leaping or clumsy cleat-eating as baseballs zip through the sky like a Grand Slam out of Fenway! Do your best to dodge the fastballs or you'll be struck OUT for the round! Overcome the AWAY team in a first-to-five frenzy and topple the bracket to become champion of Major League Mayhem! Be part of the fifth Fortress Faceoffs event and make it to the Top 8 to have your MVP plays streamed live!




For this event, bonus regions like South America, Asia, and Oceania can participate for big prizes as well (though games won't be streamed).




In the future, some Fortress Faceoffs events will only be announced on their social platforms (Discord, Steam, Twitter). Watch for new not-so-secret announcements to make sure you can be part of the games and fun!




Sign up today to get your free entrance and overpriced water! The big game starts August 5th @ 1PM EDT / 13:00 CEST (for NA and EU respectively) and will last around 3 days. For more information about event rules, prizes, and more, join the Fortress Faceoffs Discord and claim your spot in the Hall of Fame!
