About
Blizzard Entertainment uses PlayHearthstone as the official Twitch channel for its digital card game Hearthstone.[1][2] The game was released in 2014 and draws its characters and setting from Warcraft.[3][2]
Developer sessions and tournaments
Blizzard advertised a live Q&A for January 2017 with game director Ben Brode and designer Dean Ayala to discuss ranked play and the experience of new players.[1] The March 2026 CATACLYSM schedule included planned card reveals and commentary on games streamed by participating creators.[4]
For the 2026 World Championship, Blizzard named the channel as a place to watch sixteen players compete for a $500,000 prize pool.[5]
Blitzchung suspension
Blizzard faced criticism in October 2019 after suspending Blitzchung and withholding his prize money over his support for Hong Kong protesters during a tournament interview.[6][7] The company then announced that he would receive the prize money and cut the suspension to six months. It acknowledged that it had acted too quickly while defending its rule against political statements during broadcasts.[6]
