This has to be the best addition so far... it's manic fun at its best. Collect 5 presents before the other team, everyone is balanced Health and Energy wise and all attacks are from skills.
So far a team I joined, called Cookie Powha now :P , managed 16 consecutive wins, and could have gone further if one of our team hadn't had to leave. Pics below, wish we could choose teams though, guild snowball fights :D

EDIT: you also get Wintersdy Gifts for wins, as far as I know. Unless 16 gifts just magically decided to go into my inventory...

Team Cookie Powha; Left to Right, Yuna Elementa, Mighty Minimonster, S U S A N N E, and me up front

Base and skills

what location is this? is it like a team arena or somethin?

Port over to The Tombs of the Primeval Kings... you can't miss the NPC.

U can teleport to it from any of the big towns and arenas. And its really worth it, i hope it is kept in some way or another because it is much more fun than regular pvp, even tho it requires a good tactic.

Me too, I enjoyed it too much. But only if you get a good team, and no one drops.Slightly off-topic, but is Kimberly in the American Servers yet? She's in Lion's Arch, and if she's there you'll soon find out. You'll either see her, or she'll get you first :D
Kimberly
Anet should make her the Snowball Arena Boss ;)

i noticed you get presents for winning a match, do they do anything useful, the only thing ive seen them do is blow up when you double click them

Those are the presents you get from Grenth followers, the ones you get from the snowball arena or any Priest[ess]/Dwayna follower can be opened and give items, such as eggnog, candy cane or maybe a Candy Cane Shard (but that's rare, from the 21 presents I opened after the snowball arena I got 2 Candy Cane Shards).

The grenth presents will also give you 1 coal (yes the crafting material). I'm assuming this is rare like the CC shards from the Dwayna Presents.
