With your vote, you can snag 3 free packs for Hearthstone . We will tell you how to do it.
To engage the community more in the major Hearthstone tournaments, Blizzard has been enticing players with free packs when they choose a favorite team in recent weeks and months. This is now possible again at the Hearthstone Collegiate Finals in North America.
In the Collegiate Finals, teams from American colleges compete against each other. 8 teams have made it to the playoffs, the final matches, and will face off on April 22 and 23.
Even as Europeans, we can choose a college as a favorite and are rewarded with up to 3 packs from “The Streets of Gadgetzan”. One pack is given just for casting your vote. Another pack is awarded if the chosen team makes it from the quarter-finals to the semi-finals and from the semi-finals to the finals.
You can cast your vote as usual on the official Hearthstone site: Link to Blizzard’s voting page
You have time to cast your vote until April 21 at 9:00 AM.
The tournament is more than just “a game,” as the prize pool of $160,000 will be awarded in the form of scholarships, which could be of great importance for some participants’ futures.
Which team you should bet your vote on is hard to say, as there are hardly any well-known champions in this tournament. It’s best to make your choice based on gut feeling, or do it like Schuhmann: Take the “Cal”, the “University of California – Berkeley”, as it has particularly many Asian-American students.
Such tournaments, where the prize money is paid out in the form of scholarships or tuition, happen more often at Blizzard. For instance, in HotS, there is the “Heroes of the Dorm” tournament that offers similar prizes.
