DrJikininki wins DreamHack Atlanta
Entertaining matches and a thrilling tournament. After three days of Hearthstone in Atlanta, Georgia, we can now announce the champion of our North American event – DrJikininki.
It was a happy and almost exhausted DrJikininki who got to lift the trophy in the studio together with the broadcast talent. Humbled by the victory over his opponent Noblord, he thanked everyone who had helped him prepare for the tournament. With the score 3-2, DrJikininki defeated Noblord, winning $7,500 USD and earning 15 important HCT Points.
The way he managed to win his last game was, as Gul’dan might’ve put it, extraordinary. Congratulations to DrJikininki!

sry but cs go is more important:D
Why do you never post a bracket here? The dreamhack bracket is very hard to find and follow...
What do you mean by bracket? We won't be covering the Swiss part of the tournament as stated in the post. We definitely won't have a table of 180 players that we would update after every round. Once the top16 part starts we will have a bracket for that.
If you want to keep up with the Swiss part it can be followed here. Last week during Dreamhack Valencia they also tried to use smash.gg for the Swiss but some bug caused it to fail so I'm not 100% certain it will work this time either.
that is exactly the link that does not work at all all the time...but thank you for stating the obvious
Would love to attend one of these in person one day. But for now, the stream will more than suffice.
