Pro

For those looking to watch some high level Heroes play, these are the tournaments to check out.

• Heroes Lounge Division S is Heroes Lounge's plan to #saveHotS by organizing EU and NA leagues with a round robin format for the best Heroes players in their regions. Division S will have a crowdfunded prize pool (already over $15k), to which you can contribute on Matcherino. Their English stream will be cast by Halorin, JHow, Khaldor, Tetcher, and Trikslyr. The first two out of four qualifiers have already been played, but sign-ups for qualifier #3 are still open (EU, NA)!
• HeroesHearth Fight Night is a best-of-5 series played every two weeks between top NA teams. The winner stays and the other team changes every match. The matches are cast by JHow and Halorin, with the next match being played on February 15th between the defending champions Team Feedem and the challengers – Team Twelve.
