“It feels amazing to win. I practiced a lot for this tournament, and it felt great to finally get a top 16 and even better to actually go all the way and win it,” Furyhunter told Blizzard after the match. “My top 8 series were the most nerve-wracking experiences of my life. I had so many close games and series that my heart needs to rest now. I could just feel and hear my heart racing because of the tension.”

FuryHunter added that each victory, especially the reverse sweeps, felt amazing. During the semifinal, he thought he would be out of the tournament, he said, but he persisted and won. He said the tournament was a rollercoaster of emotions.

Victory through community

FuryHunter has been part of the Hearthstone scene for several years. In 2018, he took home the gold in DreamHack Summer 2018. A year after that, he claimed victory with his team at the Hearthstone Global Games.

FuryHunter, who now plays for MAX Team, gave a shoutout to his practice group after securing his win. He also acknowledged Jim “badajimpom” Boer for being a great final opponent. Other shoutouts included ones for wiRerHS and Franjo “reqvam” Blažević, who both helped him with his winning deck lineup.

The decks that he used during the tournament included Quest Warrior, Garrote Rogue, Aggro Elemental Shaman and OTK Demon Hunter.

When FuryHunter faced VK.msbc in the semifinal, he completed another reverse sweep, claiming victory over his opponent with a score of 3-2.

In the final against badajimpom, FuryHunter began by playing his OTK Demon Hunter deck against badajimpom’s Quest Warrior. The first point went to badajimpom but FuryHunter didn’t give up. Using OTK Demon Hunter, he duked it out against his opponent’s Libram Paladin and tied the score.
