If you want a couple of free card packs for idling watching the Hearthstone Masters event this weekend, you're in luck!
- Watch three hours of the stream, earn a Rise of Shadows pack.
- Watch six hours of the stream, earn a second Rise of Shadows pack.
Additional, random drops are also available! If you're lucky enough, you can win a Classic Card Pack by simply watching the stream. Each hour the streams are live, Blizzard is giving away 1500 Classic Packs! With 33 hours of coverage, that's 49,500 Classic Packs!
If you're interested, you'll want to login to your Twitch account, go to settings, and then connect your Battle.net account. Remember that drops are only active during the stream and we're going to have more, wonderfully formatted information on the event closer to it.
- Stream is up on June 14, 15, and 16.
- You can watch from 9 AM - 8 PM PDT.
- For those in the eastern timezone, that's 12 PM - 11 PM EDT.
- CEST folks are looking to watch between 6 PM - 5 AM.
Here's the full post from Blizzard.

Comments
Do we get the packs once or more packs everyday? Anyone!?
There's only a 2 card pack limit for watching correct ?
I never say no to free packs! Thank for telling us!
Are they actually imagining that people will dedicate 6 hours to actively watching the streams? 6 hours of your time for $2.99 of cards.
I just left it streaming on my phone on silent while watching Netflix. Easiest two packs ever lol.
Thanks for telling the play times in CEST also, since it is in my time zone it helps a lot!
PS wish you guys the best with this new site :) And it stinks what happened to HP... Sorry to hear
My Twitch account is setup to my Battlenet account, but some how I get an error when ever i try to change it from American to EU servers..
GG Twitch and Blizzard!
I welcome this, but I sincerely hope that it isn't a replacement for Choose Your Champion. Hopefully the playoffs of the Grandmasters will have some sort of CYC event, as it'd be a real shame to go from 1-4 packs to a guaranteed 2, even though the EV is roughly the same.
I've noticed a few times on Twitch the window will sometimes pause if I tab out and do other things or if I wanted to watch something else. I used the Popout Player and stuck the quality down to 160p. Worked like a treat with Gwent and ESL drops.
Honestly I couldn’t even bring my self to stream this in the background.... it feels like prostitution
Cool 2 packs for one warrior mirror :)
So, 1 pack for a warrior mirror. Count me in!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would watch it if it were in the conquest format but specialist? Nah, I will idle all the way to the 2 packs.
What I had to do last time was leave twitch running on my phone while I slept since the time difference was huge
This is exactly the same for me last time, it started at something obnoxious like 3AM.
I got my packs leaving my iPad on playing the stream, did you get any classic packs? I always think that tablets and phones won't reward twitch drops, despite always being told they do.
Maybe I'm just unlucky!
Nope none for me eithe . Just the ones for watching. I was happy none the less. Free is free!
Last time I sat idle and got no packs :( definitely have my twitch and blizz accounts linked properly, I've been able to pick up promos in the past.
Strange I didn't get the packs last time, but lets try again ;)
If you've seen the comments on the announcement tweet, it's atrocious. I like this idea a lot, and it's to be seen as an extra for the individuals that like watching HS Esports, but also to attract new viewers. Please don't comment that "3 hours of your time should be worth more than one pack", like those turds over on Twitter.
That being said, I liked your little nudge to being idle the whole stream, Flux.
Its during night in EU, so I just started the stream, set it to lowest quality, turned down the sound, turned off the monitor and let it run the whole night. I hope the electricity bill be cheaper than buying one pack 🤪
