Masters Summer Championship is happening this weekend. We’re sort of back to the old esports system, and it’s the “championship” event in 2022. Top 16 players who earned most points during the first three Masters Tours of the year will compete for their share of $50,000 prize pool, as well as the invite to 2022 Hearthstone World Championship. It’s the first official tournament after the release of the latest mini-set – Throne of Tides.
YouTube drops will also be active. Watch the tournament on any of the official streams for two hours to get a single Voyage to the Sunken City pack, watch for two more (four in total) for a second pack.
Learn more about the event and how to connect your accounts for the drops (in case you haven’t done it yet) from the official blog post below:
