Another installment of the Hearthstone Masters Tour takes place this weekend in Seoul. This is tour stop number 2, with Dog defeating Gallon in the finals of Masters Tour: Las Vegas in June. Over 350 players are invited to Seoul to participate for their chance to take home part of the $500,000 prize pool. The event spans 3 days and has a stacked field with many of your favorite pros and streamers. This is the first mainstream tournament since the release of Saviors of Uldum, so it will be interesting to see how the meta evolves.
Twitch Drops Return!
With Twitch drops once again active, viewers can earn themselves two Saviors of Uldum packs and have a chance at winning a Classic pack each hour.
Tuning in for 3 total hours will grant you your 1st Saviors of Uldum pack. You'll receive a second when you reach 6 total hours. Additionally, 1500 viewers will be picked each hour to win a Classic pack. Make sure you link your account through the settings menu on Twitch prior to watching!

- Between 6pm PT, August 15 and 3am PT, August 16
- Between 6pm PT, August 16 and 3am PT, August 17
- Between 6pm PT, August 17 and 3am PT, August 18

Posted Aug 16, 2019 (Saviors of Uldum)What a shitshow that was. Hour in and they tell us that it's pre-recorded. Every damn match had a mage in it and every single mirror was determined by who could get off Luna's Pocket Galaxy first.

Posted Aug 16, 2019 (Saviors of Uldum)Note how the Hearthstone website itself says the following (which contradicts the article above):
This means that European players are eligible for Twitch drops between 3AM CEST and 12PM CEST (noon).

Posted Aug 16, 2019 (Saviors of Uldum)Fixed it in the article. I suspect this is a fix Blizzard made to the official article too, cause I'm fairly sure it was not written like that before.

Posted Aug 16, 2019 (Saviors of Uldum)The format is really what is encouraging this problem. Why they still use this PoS is beyond me when they already announced a new better format.

Posted Aug 15, 2019 (Saviors of Uldum)Didn’t Blizzard learn from the last tournament that everyone hates “Specialist” format? Guess it’s Twitch AFK weekend for me.
