Blizzcon 2017 – Home of the HGC Finals Has Boasted Over a Million Dollars in Cash and Prizes

Two patches in one week is not uncommon, but to not list any information about today’s maintenance compared to Tuesday’s hotfix raises some eyebrows. With a big spotlight shining on the Heroes Global Championship Final, at Blizzcon, things are starting to heat up. Especially after the online viewership success of the Mid-Season Brawl.

Heroes of the Storm is clearly receiving the benefit of added attention in preparation for the big event. New characters, new meta, and some cash on the line makes this year’s finals a must watch @ Blizzcon 2017.
