Get ready for the Anniversary celebration of Heroes of the Storm!
As main part of Season 26 comes to a close, we want to share what's next in the Heroes Lounge calendar.
Heroes of the Storm was launched 10 years ago on the 2nd of June, as such many communities are coming together to celebrate!
Here in Heroes Lounge, we felt there was nothing more fitting than to run a short tournament in its honour.
A month long tournament, starting May 1st!
You can sign up now here: https://heroeslounge.gg/tournament/hots-10-sign
Sign ups will close Noon on the 30th April.
Playoff Finals will take place on the 31st of May and 1st of June.
Only 3 Divisions
Due to this being a smaller tournament, squished into the limited amount of time to celebrate, we are only having 3 Divisions.
Top teams from our current Division 1, we encourage you to sign up for the cash tournament, ran by Ravencourt & HasuObs here: Hots 10 EU Cup
All teams that sign up will be seeded into a Division of similar skill level, as per our normal season.
Format
Once we have seeded teams into the relevant division, teams will be randomly assigned into one of 4 groups inside those divisions.
Teams will then be able to schedule any and all of their matches for any point during the month of May,
Our moderators will be sending nudges on occasion to make sure you are scheduling them, so don't save every match for May the 29th!
The top team from each group will be then invited to the Division Playoffs.
Playoffs will be a single elimination bracket with a Best of 3 Semi-Final, and Best of 3 Grand Final.
Divisions 2 & 3 will have their playoffs on the afternoon of the 31st of May
Division 1 will have their playoffs on the afternoon of the 1st of June.
