The World’s largest live Hearthstone tournament with the goal to take the record in participating players will be hosted at DreamHack Summer 2014 on 14-16 June. The top 16 players will fight over a $25,000 prize pool.

The tournament will feature a combination of seeded players who have proven themselves as the World’s best, as well as a massive open bracket. The main tournament will be played on iPad, instead of PC like previous professional tournaments, which will give the tournament a complete different flavour.

DreamHack is able to release the following information regarding the event:

Dates: June 14-16th

Live qualifier: 128 player double elimination bracket (possible to expand) played June 14th/15th, top 4 advance

Seeded players: 12 top participating players will be seeded into the group stage

Format: 16 player group stage (dual tournament) into single elimination playoffs

Prize pool:
  • $25,000 USD
  • 1st: $10,000
  • 2nd: $5,000
  • 3rd/4th: $2,500
  • 7-8th: $1,250


Apply on the form below to participate in the tournament as well as be considered for a position to be seeded into the group stage! Note that the open bracket will initially be 128 players, as more players sign up it will be possible to expand the bracket to 256 players or larger, but be sure to purchase your BYOC seat and get your name in ASAP to avoid being placed on the waiting list!

so are they gonna lend an ipad to all the 128 players ?
I think it's dumb if you can't play it on PC...i guess blizzard offered lot of dirty esport money to make the promotion of the iPad version :/
I'm not against lend iPad to the invited players and make people play on iPad on the stream, but if 128 of the players are obligated to play on iPad it's really dumb

Don't really see the problem with using iPads. Depending how they capture the video between the devices it might offer a better viewing experience than what we see when players use PCs.

Theyll probably have a couple of ipads for the final stage event. Ofc you dont have to bring your own.

What is the selection criteria for being a seed? Probably doing well on invite only tournaments

Seems like dreamhack listened to criticism from the last event with seeded players getting to the top 16 straight away and double elimination for the open bracket.

not sure why they're playing it on ipad instead of PC. Bit of an odd choice unless they're trying to advertise for the ipad.
Huge prizepool looks awesome though

Having 75% of the player pool invited seems like a step backwards considering how many players would love a shot to win a dreamhack.
