To Everyone This Time!

After a week of solid testing, the presale participants exclusive beta period has come to an end. It is now time to open our foundation for the FirstBlood platform to the world!

What Titles Are We Starting With?

As of right now, we are only supporting one title and that title is Dota 2. We do plan on adding more tier one titles such as CS:GO, League of Legends (LoL), Overwatch, PUBG and many more!

What to Expect in Beta

We are launching the foundation to what FirstBlood.io will be built on and will continuously add new features, options, designs, and more as we grow and progress from beta to full release.

There is much to come, but FirstBlood foundation starts with;

  • Matchmaking system that we will continue to improve

  • Hero Analytics; Play a hero and we’ll provide you updated analytics in your profile
  • Create your own team, Add your logo, Add a cover photo. Invite your teammates and friends. Track performances with some key statistics for your team and each player on the roster!
  • Token System. Starting with play tokens…for now
  • Friends List! Wohoo, Friends!
  • In app notifications
  • Weekly Ladder! Who will take home the prizes by battling to the top in this feature. The top players will be rewarded for their guts and glory. We are delivering some unique prizes for the winners of the first Ladder! Signup and take a peek to see what we are delivering

Now that Beta is Launched, What’s Next for FirstBlood?

We are proud of the improvements made from our alpha, however; we still have a lot work ahead of us! We truly believe, we are just getting started!
