The Esports Stadium Arlington was filled with applause as bloodyface, Grandmaster and the second place finisher at the 2019 Global Finals, dominated the Swiss Rounds with 9 straight wins to secure the top seed in Masters Tour Arlington’s Top 8. While bloodyface swept his matches, he wasn’t the only Grandmaster to make the Top 8: Felkeine, who secured his spot in Grandmasters after winning Masters Tour Bucharest, claimed his top spot with an impressive 8-1 record.
Alex Charsky, Senior Product Manager for Hearthstone Esports, was particularly impressed by the consistency of the French players at Masters Tours. “The French contingent is a force to be reckoned with on the Masters Tour circuit. They placed four players in the Top 8 today, which follows impressive performances at both Masters Tour Seoul with four players in Top 8 and Felkeine taking home the trophy, and a Top 8 placement by Totosh at Masters Tour Bucharest.”
You can watch the Top 8 battle for the championship when the epic conclusion of Masters Tour Arlington kicks off at 7 a.m. PT, February 2, at youtube.com/PlayHearthstone!
