Our Hearthstone Inn-vitational (HSI) 2017 guide contains a stream, schedule, results and video on demand for all matches as they conclude.

With the current Heathstone Championship Tour taking its finals to Amsterdam in January next year, a bit of a competitive hole for the game has been left in BlizzCon - the usual site of the grand finale - this year. To ensure there's a solid showdown to enjoy in its place this weekend, Blizzard has instead announced the Hearthstone Inn-vitational.

In this event, four teams composed of three popular streamers and pro players apiece will go head to head in a series of challenges that are scheduled across both days of the fan-gathering. Each challenge has its own unique twists, but only one team can emerge victorious from the entire tournament.

In our guide to this new event, you'll find everything you could possibly need to know about the inaugural Inn-vitational. We've got a breakdown of who's who on both teams, a schedule for each challenge, and details of what those challenges will look like in each session.

We've also embedded a stream for you, and will be updating this article with all the results as the weekend's matches play out. As soon as video on demand (VOD) becomes available for each match, we'll add it into this guide so you can catch up. All results will be hidden behind spoiler tags and posted towards the bottom of the page.
