I like Ike!
Sorry, couldn't resist ;)
EDIT: btw, he just won against DrJikininki in the final. If I'm not mistaken, he won every single match in the whole event (including Swiss phase)?
Yes, he went 13-0 for the whole tournament. That's pretty damn impressive. In Summer Qualifiers he went 6-1 before getting knocked out by Empanizado in the single elimination phase so he's definitely on a roll now.
Starting to add those to the site right now. If you can't wait you can find the decklists for all players here: https://smash.gg/tournament/dreamhack-denver-hearthstone-grand-prix/events/grand-prix/standings
Top16 decks have been added now and you can find them here: http://www.hearthpwn.com/decks?filter-deck-tag=1&filter-search=dreamhack denver&page=3. Flux will probably add them to this news post too at some point.

Now available thanks to Frosty ;)
what about my packs of the last tournament i voted?
But they will never hack our ghost. Our ghost is our own.
Pretty cool -- I sure wouldn't mind an extra $7500 in me wallet (before taxes, of corse). Good luck to all-- you may need it!
"... which will help them get to Hearthstone's Summer Qualifiers."
Uhm.... what?!
Little bit too much copypasta by Flux, it seems. These HCT points will only count to Last Call and all those spots are already gone so...not sure what it should be changed to.
This is why you're supposed to proofread things at least 3 times at 1 AM.
so where do we see which players are attending?
edit: okay i realized there is a link in the second paragraph
I've added in the top 8 notable players for the event to help build some hype.
