Burning Crusade Classic Arena Tournament Begins on Friday!
The top 16 teams across North America and Europe are advancing to this weekend’s live, Classic Arena Tournament (CAT) broadcast, only on YouTube and Twitch!
From over 150 teams signed up ahead of last weekend’s Qualifiers, to only eight teams remaining in both North America and Europe, the epic conclusion of WoW Esports’ first Burning Crusade Classic Arena Tournament is set. The remaining teams, composed of some of the best 3v3 players in the world, have mastered the legendary Arena for their shot at a total $30,000 (USD) prize pool. CAT is our celebration of all things WoW pvp, as we harken back to the greatest game of 2007 and where WoW Esports originally got its start. We’ll be joined by special guest casters, as well as Burning Crusade Classic Lead Producer Holly Longdale, so be sure to read on so you don’t miss a single moment of what is bound to be a truly classic weekend.
