Hearthstone Masters Tour Vashj’ir will be the fourth event of its kind this year, the Hearthstone Esports team announced on Tuesday. Competitors will be duking it out against each other from June 30 to July 3 using cards from the Voyage to the Sunken City expansion.
Hearthstone Masters Tour Vashj’ir
Kicking off on June 30, Hearthstone Masters Tour Vashj’ir will feature four rounds of swiss pairings. Day two will have four more rounds of swiss pairings, which means championship Sunday will involve the top 16 competitors battling in a single-elimination playoff round before the top eight players fight for the crown.
The format will use the conquest rule set, involving four decks and four unique classes. Under this format, each player will ban one deck from their opponent before overcoming the others.
While tournament play will start at 6:15 p.m. ET, the live broadcast will begin at 7 p.m. ET each day. This event will happen online, and each competitor must bring their own device. Those who are interested in Hearthstone Masters Tour Vashj’ir must first qualify via Battlefy.
Voyage to the Sunken City
While fans anticipate the fourth Masters Tour of 2022, they can also look forward to the upcoming Voyage to the Sunken City expansion. Launching on April 12 alongside the Year of the Hydra, Voyage to the Sunken City will encompass the Dredge and Colossal keywords plus the new Naga minion type.
As for players who enjoy in-game loot and have either an Amazon Prime or Prime Video account, they can visit Hearthstone’s Prime Gaming page and claim some Voyage to the Sunken City cards.
According to Hearthstone’s Lead Game Producer Amy Jantzer, if players claim the first drop after the expansion’s launch, then the Legendary will be from Voyage to the Sunken City.
