Heroes of the Storm’s North America Regional tournament airs on Twitch this weekend
Heroes of the Storm fans have plenty to watch Saturday and Sunday.
This weekend — February 27 and 28 in Los Angles — the best Heroes of the Storm teams in North America will compete for a chance to enter the game’s Spring Global Championship, which takes place in South Korea from April 1 to April 3. Those in the North America qualifiers will fight for a $ 100,000 prize pool, and two teams will advance to the championships, which will have a $ 500,000 prize pool. The esports market will hit $ 463 million this year and $ 1.1 billion by 2019, according to Newzoo.
Heroes of the Storm is a multiplayer online battle arena game, similar to the mega-hit League of Legends, which has around 70 million active players a month. Blizzard doesn’t release similar numbers for Heroes of the Storm, but it’s unlikely to be near League of Legends in popularity.
