Posted Sep 9, 2017 (Frozen Throne)Nine (in DreamHacks, in HCT playoffs there are seven rounds). Six rounds were played on Day 1 and today's schedule has those three remaining rounds and top 16 matches.
Edit: In case you want to follow the Swiss rounds better, here are the brackets and stuff.

Posted Sep 8, 2017 (Frozen Throne)I'm almost certain the only big requirement is to be there in person but I'm not 100 % certain. I did find this pdf that apparently has the rules and I didn't see anything that would deny anyone from participating. In case you got interested, next DreamHack will be in Denver on 20-22th October and signups are open.

Posted Sep 8, 2017 (Frozen Throne)3 years? Just last year i complained about Dragon Priest, i still consider it most cancerous deck of all time, even worse than current Jade Druid.
