How tight is the sponsor grip over Hearthstone players and teams compared to other esports and traditional sports and how is that affecting the game? Nydra, Chiv and Sumadin sit down for a serious talk tonight at 21:00 CEST.
Before getting into another deep discussion, show’s hosts share what decks they’re playing in the first week after TGT’s release. Learn about the rise of Paladin thanks to [card]Mysterious Challenger[/card], Dragons actually not sucking now and if Ramp Druid has gotten even more powerful with cards like [card]Aviana[/card].
In the main topic of tonight, we’ll talk what makes a Hearthstone player or team valuable to sponsors. Does winning tournaments matter and how much? Isn’t it easier to just stream and is this hindering competitive Hearthstone? What is the extent to which sponsors dictate competitive Hearthstone? Are the majority of Hearthstone talents being turned into “walking billboards” for their sponsors?
All that and more when The Innervated starts. Tune in at Twitch.tv/GosuTV4 at 21:00 CEST to watch us live!
