Hearthstone, despite facing stiffer competition over the years in its own genre, and of course from the esport giants that we’ve seen on this list already, has managed to hold strong and remain a popular esport throughout 2018.

Like all of the Blizzard based esports on this list not named Heroes of the Storm, Blizzard does a great job supporting their games through prize pools, tournaments, and opportunities for pros to play on a big stage.

The 2018 Hearthstone Global Games is the premiere tournament for the title at Blizzcon. What’s interesting about it is that Bit cheering via Twitch as a big part of this year’s event, and the United States, despite not placing high, ended up taking a much bigger prize pool because of it.
