Hear-ye, hear-ye! Yes, ye! Come hither, the Mayhem Tournament is about to begin!

In celebration of the impending Mounts of Mayhem game drop, the bravest and most adventurous heroes of the Overworld are gathering for a month of absolute mayhem that I will recount to you chapter by chapter, making up one epic story! Also, there will be mounts!! Can’t forget the mounts.

This tournament could not be contained to just one arena, or even one biome. So we will be taking our tournament out on the road, adapting each match to its unique surroundings. I guess my suggestion of an enormous sand pit was too much challenge, or sandenge (patent pending).

This competition is not for the faint of heart. The new challenges that this game drop brings are fierce and, in my unhumble opinion, really impatient. They have been waiting a long time to wreak havoc on your once safe game world! You think zombies are scary? Have you seen one on a horse? That’s also a zombie!? That’s a lot of rotten flesh to fight off. Thankfully, we’re also getting a new weapon: the pointy, jab, long-stick!! Or spear, in layman’s terms. It can defend you from afar(ish) and when paired with its unique Lunge enchantment, you’ll be able to do some real damage. 

Hopefully our challenge challengers have been practicing. I’ll be sitting this one out, as I am just too adept at spear fighting and mount taming. I was told it needed to be a fair fight, and after several objections I have agreed to simply MC this affair.

Speaking of which, here comes the first challenger now! We’re starting in a classic arena, or Vanilla Arena if you will. Oh, you won’t? That’s the spirit! From this point forward, we’re going to challenge everything!

Stay tuned for our next post – or familiarise yourself with some of the foes we’ll be facing…!
