- On day two all players with four or more match wins will play through five more rounds of Swiss. The Top 8 players will advance to two dual-tournament format groups and play their initial rounds.
- On day 3 the Top 8 players will return to finish out the tournament
- All matches will be best-of-three, except the final which will be best-of-five.

Does anyone know...
will it also work if you are logged in the twitch.tv app for windows and watch it there?
I see no reason why It wouldn't work like that to be honest
they make money, you get free packs, win-win
if u care about them getting money you shouldn't play this game after all
How are they forcing you? Is someone from Blizzard holding your mom hostage? Is there a gun pointed at your head?
check out the world tournament of craps by chappelle on you tube, thats a hearthstone tournament defined. I wouldnt watch the drivel if they paid me to do. I'd rather watch paint dry
They force players to watch their dice roll simulator
Giving out free stuff for said dice roll simulator is hardly forcing anyone to do anything.
And I am wondering what you are even doing here? Apparently you don't like the game, but still you comment on them giving out stuff because the minuscule requirement of having a background tab open in your browser is too much for you?
And then people wonder why the world is going to sh*t. SMH.
great I can log into my pc remotely turn on the stream and go back to enjoying life at a resort this weekend and still get free packs. You know its bad when they have to give away packs to even get people to tune in for three hours. I guess they can another ip on the list to say they have a viewer. Too bad the sponsors are not smart enough to realize that nobody is sitting in front of a computer watching this during those three hours anyway. Bravo Blizzard! How about spending some money and fixing the resolution problem on my ipad 11" instead of this waste of time?
thanks for the 80 dust i wont spend it all in one place.......
lmao what the fuck are you even talking about
Apple users...
yeah you don't need prime though so
Free account works fine, no need for prime etc.
Could you please put a link to the original HS blogpost into these kind of "official" articles in the future? It's been like that with previous posts (mostly) and I liked that.
Nooooooo fucking thank you lol.
This type of giveaway was enough of a nightmare with Grand Theft Auto Online...
Do you need a premium twitch account for this? Or does a free one still work?
just keep it open in the background!!!jezz!!!
still, is made to make them view, they will make money out of that 😅
I dislike the format, but guess i can get the stream running in the background.
Its just to boring to watch.
At least in the usual format you have only 1 mirror match of the same type, but watching 2 or 3 warrior mirrors and next game again....just shoot me....
