Heroes Of The Storm Esports

After a fun time at Katowice, it's back to the grind.

This week, Blizzard esports are all about Katowice, Poland.

While most of Heroes of the Storm has a bye week while they bootcamp for next week's Western Clash, the StarCraft competition is already kicking off this week in Katowice.

Roadhog saw his shadow this morning, so there are at least six more weeks of winter esports to watch before spring arrives.

The holiday doldrums seem to be over.

The restructured Heroes Global Championship competition makes its debut on Friday morning.

It's a fresh new year, and many teams are taking this opportunity to start fresh.

While there aren't very many events streaming this week, lots of organizations are using this lull right before the new year to announce their plans for 2017.

The year is winding to its close, so the esports we're seeing this weekend are particularly festive.

This week the esports world was mostly dominated by hype for the Intel Extreme Masters tournaments, going on next weekend.
