Commander Mode(CMDM) utilizes the newly revamped spectator system to change the way matches are played.
The idea is simple: Two teams of five go at it like normal, but with a twist: each team has one additional player who is in a spectator spot! This person is able to see everything as a spectator: enemy positions, items, skills, etc. The commander can relay this information to his team, and this makes for some very intense action and vigorous gameplay!
**HoN does not allow spectators to use voice chat with players, so each team must use a 3rd party service such as Ventrilo, Mumble, TeamSpeak, or Skype to communicate. Each team is responsible for their own communication, and a communication failure is not a valid reason for lack of participation**
Each tournament win will award the team 180 Silver coins, split evenly among the team.
