The Heroes of the Storm Global Championship Circuit begins later this month

Heroes of the Storm Global Championship Circuit is ready to start 2016 with a bang.

In the circuit, “the best teams from Australia/New Zealand, China, Europe, Korea, Latin America, North America, Southeast Asia, and Taiwan will be competing in a quarterly, seasonal format, culminating in a Global Championship event,” Blizzard advised.

Over $4 million USD in prize money will be available to participants.

Australia kicks things off with two online, open qualifiers on 30 January and 7 February. The regular season begins on 28 February with a $20,000 USD prize pool on offer.

About the author

Steve Wright

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
