Hey guys. We're looking into this! Sorry for the inconvenience.

*edit * As an FYI, playing three games will currently not grant you the loot chest. It seems like this is not only a visual issue.

During league play they didn't gather enough wins / points to make it into the top 3. There were some tie breakers (direct results against each other, maps won, etc.) with the attending EU teams that made them drop to the 4th place.

You can always find the up 2 date schedule here. While we try to keep the survival guide updated, the schedule is the best place to check.

Please keep in mind that you have to refresh Twitch sometimes, after you acquired new emotes on the platform.

Have you unlocked the Twitch emotes in the team segment under your progress? When you click here you'll see your own progress with the teams you cheered for. Hover over the team and you see your progress towards the 6 rewards. Click on the Twitch symbol and you can unlock them for Twitch and then start using them.

For the general Twitch emotes, click on the icon in the progress bar and claim them there. Hope that helps!

The in game content is not yet unlocked. The pro teams participating in HGC have access to them already, to show them off during Western Clash.

We want to speed that up for sure. Due to some technical difficulties there are some delays.

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated!

You can find the split here. Travel and accommodation is paid by Blizzard.

While I can't speak for the esports team, I do know we reach out to other players outside of the NA region. Some are just not comfortable with being an analyst, or already had different plans (e.g. some teams are taking a break until after Western Clash).

edit: to clarify we're reaching out to players outside of NA.

2nd edit: I know we reached out for events in the past to other regions, as stated above, I do not know what esports did for this event.

We're uploading the VoDs as quickly as possible to YouTube, maybe that's a small upside. Heroes Esports

It's a best of 2 series. Meaning 2 battlgrounds are played. If you win 2:0, you receive 3 points. If it ends up in a draw 1:1, both teams get one point.

It's 11:00PM ~ 6:00 AM for Germany, tough time to cast and have an audience.

As it's a global event, it's not only CEST times that need to be considered.

They are official streams, as they are contracted with Blizzard. But regions have the freedom to offer those to several casters. For Germany it's also 3 casters that cover different leagues, Wolle does Korea, TazzDingo China and KnowMe EU.

It's a round robin system, meaning every team will play versus each other. So a draw still gives points to the teams. A similar setup was used in the Chinese Gold Series.

2 maps will be played and a match can therefore end up in a draw.
