Blizzard Classic Cup Begins Across Four Legendary Games — original editorial gaming news illustration

BlizzCon's new Blizzard Classic Cup begins this weekend, bringing together competition across Heroes of the Storm, StarCraft: Remastered, StarCraft II and Warcraft III: Reforged. Veteran commentators Nick 'Tasteless' Plott and Dan 'Artosis' Stemkoski captain opposing teams, with results across the four games contributing toward a combined weekend scoreboard. Blizzard has set a $100,000 total prize pool, including $20,000 bounties attached to Legacy Matches. The format deliberately avoids a traditional elimination bracket and instead mixes historic rivalries with entertainment matches. Today's Warcraft III contests form part of the opening-day program, while additional games continue across BlizzCon. The event is one of Blizzard's clearest attempts to bring its classic esports history back into the spotlight.
