eSports Weekend Calendar: November 7 – 9, 2014
It’s BlizzCon weekend! That means it’s World Championship after World Championship after World Championship from Anaheim this weekend. The big one is the StarCraft II World Championship Series Global Finals which will see a new champion in 2014 after sOs missed the WCS top sixteen. There will be a Hearthstone World Championship this year after last year’s invitational. And Heroes of the Storm gets its own invitational tournament this year. Personally, I’m hoping for an imminent beta so I can get in on the Heroes action.
If those three games aren’t your speed, you can go a bit more standard with your MOBAs. There are a whole pile of Dota 2 leagues in action this weekend. Failing that, you can always watch a bit of CS:GO.

Some companies do April 1st better than others. The one publisher that might just be the best at it is Blizzard. They used April Fools’ Day to have a little fun at their expense while poking fun at free-to-play games. Who says that April Fools’ jokes can’t be used for good.

Blizzard All-Stars Renamed Heroes of the Storm
Blizzard All-Stars is dead! Long live Blizzard All-Stars!
Okay, it’s not actually dead. The Blizzard All-Stars of the name is dead though. Because you can’t have enough popular games with the acronym HotS, the not-so-secret Blizzard MOBA project has been rechristened Heroes of the Swarm.
