It’s time for the sixth (and last) Masters Tour of 2021 – the event will start soon and play over the weekend. More than 400 players will fight for their share of $250k prize pool and a chance to qualify to Grandmasters 2022 Season 1. It’s the first event using the Deadmines mini-set cards, but notably the two new Legendaries from upcoming Fractured in Alterac Valley expansion (Drek’Thar & Vanndar) are banned.
YouTube drops will also be active. Watch the tournament on any of the official streams for two hours to get a single Year of the Phoenix pack, watch for two more (four in total) for a second pack.
