Blizzard Announce Hearthstone Event Scholomance Inn-vitational with $100,000 at Stake

Blizzard Entertainment have announced Scholomance Inn-vitational, a Hearthstone showmatch tournament. The event will be held on August 25th – 26th, featuring 20 Hearthstone personalities competing for a $100,000 prize pool.

The participants have been split into ten teams, each representing a dual-class pairing. Each team will prepare four decks consisting of the Dual Class cards from the Scholomance Academy update. Each player will individually participate in four rounds of best-of-three matches, scoring points for each victory. The final placements will be based on the total team point score.

The teams look as follows:

• School of Tricks: Avelline (Rogue), Thijs (Mage)
• School of Bones: Dog (Warlock), tylerootd (Priest)
• School of Light: Trump (Paladin), Brian Kibler (Priest)
• School of Beasts: RegisKillbin (Hunter), BoarControl (Druid)

• School of Honor: Kripp (Warrior), DDaHyoNi (Paladin)
• School of Blades: Flurry (Rogue), Plag1at (Warrior)
• School of Fel: RDU (Demon Hunter), Tom60229 (Warlock)

All participants of the event will stream the action on their own channels, while the official Hearthstone channels on Twitch and Youtube will provide match commentary. During the event, the Twitch viewers will be able to get the drops.

The Scholomance Academy expansion was released a month ago and introduced Dual Class cards that combine mechanics of two different classes.
