"With our new CSR System, finely tuned matchmaking, fair starts, and a banhammer stricter than a MLB World Series Umpire - we are incredibly excited to offer a live eSport for all owners of Halo 5 to participate in."Whether you roll solo or with friends – the time has never been better to step up and define your Halo career, relive the legacy of Halo, trash-talk your friends, or show our Pro-Team how it’s done."In Arena, you will never join a match that’s already in progress. You will get a fresh match every time without fear of putting your hard earned CSR at risk and joining a losing team in the middle of a match. Your skill, teamwork, and decision making during the entirety of each match will decide whether you win or lose."
