Masters Tour: Vashj’ir
The first Hearthstone Esports season for 2022 is over, and Master Tour Vashj’ir will inaugurate the second part. The $250,000 event will give out points to qualify for the Fall Seasonal Championship. On top of that, players making 6-2 or better will also earn an invite for Masters Tour Five.

Hearthstone Esports confirmed that Prince Renathal is eligible for the event. While some pro-players disliked this, it will spice up the established metagame.
