Have you ever played card games? You probably know that there are many games in the world that are played using card decks. But now we’re going to talk about Hearthstone, a video game developed by Blizzard Entertainment in the spring of 2013. The game was doomed to success like any other project released by this company. Essentially, Hearthstone is an online collectible card game that can be installed and run not only on PCs but also on smartphones and other portable devices. This allows players to access the gameplay even while on the road. It’s enough to take your smartphone out of your pocket and launch the application with the game. But that’s not the only thing that made Blizzard so famous.

Hearthstone Features
Hearthstone’s main feature is that it is connected to the universe of World of Warcraft, a popular online game that was also developed and released by Blizzard Entertainment. Perhaps this is a very good move, which allowed it to attract many fans and players of WoW. However, this is far from the only reason why the number of Hartstone players increases every year. Millions of people from various countries of our planet have become participants in card battles unfolding in this game. The game has enormous competitive potential, which allowed it to easily penetrate into esports and settle there as one of the top esports disciplines. Who would have thought that the cards would be able to supersede such genres as shooters, MOBA, and RTS. However, the top esports tournaments, where the best Hearthstone players fight, attract a huge number of viewers and cause a stir in the esports community. Winners of the competitions are awarded honorary titles, as well as large sums of money that can reach several million dollars. Therefore, professional esports players look forward to the upcoming Hearthstone tournaments and prepare very hard for them.
Hearthstone tournaments are played in 1-on-1 format. This is a kind of card duel that’s played between two players. All cards have unique characteristics that affect the course of the game. Players assemble their own decks, matching the cards to the overall strategy they will follow during the competition. There is also a random factor in the game, but it is not decisive, so, as a rule, the victory in Hearthstone goes to the most thoughtful player who knows how to calculate their moves in advance.
