  • Brackets for the tournament can be found here: https://battlefy.com/hsesports/masters-tour-online-montr%C3%A9al/5f3c3c6066bf242962711d60/stage/5f5b8cab513be46175c9b03a/bracket/1

  • I saw on both the Blizzard and Battlefy sites that the prizes for participants in the tournament were Hearthstone packs - hilarious. Pretty sure anyone on that list already has access to the cards they want. Are there really no cash awards for this level of competition? Why would a current GM or other pro player want to participate? I know there's some points system that contributes to becoming a GM if you do well in tournaments, but the lack of money seems funny to me.

    • The Masters Tour qualifiers have pack prizes, but the Tour events itself do have real money on the line. And actually, there is no other point system than the prize money you have earned.

      Base prizing as seen in Blizz rules
      • 1st place: $32,500
      • 2nd place: $22,500
      • 3rd/4th: $15,000
      • 5th-8th: $11,000
      • 7 wins in Swiss (but outside top 8): $3,500
      • 6 wins: $2,250
      • 5 wins: $1,000
      • 4 or less: $850

      • Thank you for clarifying/confirming. That makes a lot more sense.

  • Let's go CptnKitty & Theo! Very excited for this. Hoping to see a lot of cool decks, the meta is in a great state so it should be a very varied tournament with lots of different decks. I've been paying attention to a lot of tournaments the last few weeks and there are no four "best decks" like there were previous expansion. Even within classes there are tons of different options. Guardian and Malygos in Druid, Aggro and Secret in Rogue, Bomb and Enrage in Warrior, Highlander and Galakrond Dragon in Priest, Tempo and Highlander in Mage, Pure and Broom Libram in Paladin, Aggro and Soul in DH, Face and Highlander in Hunter, etc. I wonder which line-up will win.
