1.)When is hero battles going to be removed?
2.)There will be no 1v1 format for the game, which is what I enjoy the most... Will Anet add any type of 1 v 1?

1) I don't know, someone else will have ot answer.
2) sadly for you they are only adding Sealed Seck, which will probably be TA with maps from HB and TA.

1) no one knows
2) I'd say no because it's just going to get really gimmicky

sometime this year.
guild wars is about team play. not 1v1 defensive talentless button mashing.
it will never be formally implemented, ever. if that's what you'd like i'd suggest games from 2000 like diablo 2.

I just hope they give us fair warning for when it will be removed...Id like to know when I have to grind out those last 20 wins or so.

1. We don't know, but given that the September Monthly is over, it is liable to happen any day now. Perhaps when the Halloween update goes live, perhaps in November, perhaps in December... I don't think it should be too long now though.
2. 1v1 is not the playstyle of GW. If you can't play anything but 1v1, I suggest you uninstall and save yourself the trouble.

Why would they remove HB? Sure the whole Red Resign thing was a disaster but that's no reason to remove HB. That's not fair to the players that are going for title and do tournaments.
Solve the problem by adding some ridiculous amount of dishonor for people leaving or resigning early.

As for why they're removing it, the RR issue is a minor reason, but the major reason is that it was a flawed format from the get-go, and the 1v1 playstyle doesn't fit with the team game mentality of every other PvP format. Also, skills now have to be balanced for 1v1, 4v4, and 8v8 formats. It would be easiest to remove the least popular of those arena types to make the others easier to balance.

HB is being removed because AI in PvP is a bad idea when it's scripted as badly as it is in GW.

If you want to play 1v1 matches, try setting up a tournament in maybe your alliance
