Blizzard finally revealed when they will be holding the 2020 Hearthstone World Championship as the event will happen in mid-December. The entire season for the esports division has been insane in 2020 as they went from playing the Esports Arena down in Dallas, Texas back in January to now competing online for their championships at the end of the year. Normally this event would take place during BlizzCon, but since that's been moved to February 2021, we knew those plans were now out the window. Today we learned that their final championship round for Grandmasters will be taking place from December 12th-13th.

So far the series has had four confirmed winners going on to compete after winning their respective championships in Europe, China, the Americas, and APAC. Now we're in the home stretch as we look to see who will be joining them as Blizzard will run games to find four more. The top eight players from around the world will battle in the online-only tournament for their share of the $500k prize pool and a chance to join the Hall of Champions! You can read more about the event below.
