HerdTest
HerdTest tournaments
Compete in HerdTest: sign in with Steam, climb the bracket, and win.
How it works
- Sign in with Steam. No extra account — your Steam persona and avatar are your identity here.
- Register for an open tournament. Free, one click. You can invite friends by link, email, or straight from your Steam friends list.
- Play your matches in their scheduled windows. Every match is a time window. When both players hit Ready, the match goes LIVE and you launch Herd from the match card.
- Climb the bracket. Top players qualify from their group into single-elimination playoffs, up to the final — plus a small final for 3rd place.
- Win Steam trophies. The top 3 earn a trophy visible on Steam.
Features
🏆 World-Cup format
Round-robin group stage with fair tiebreakers, then a seeded knockout bracket resolving 1st, 2nd and 3rd place.
📅 Scheduled match windows
Every match has a clear play-by window (shown in UTC), so players across time zones know exactly when to show up.
⚡ Ready-up & launch
FaceIt-style readiness: both players ready up, the match goes LIVE, and Herd launches straight from Steam.
