I'm shifting this tidbit into the talk page from the lede where it was dumped. No prejudice against restoring it in a more reasonable location within the article. For more info see WP:LEDE. -Thibbs (talk) 01:13, 5 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

In 2019, VKLiooon (Xiaomeng Li, 李晓萌), representing China[1][2] in Hearthstone World Championship, defeated Bloodyface (Brian Eason, representing United States) to succeed Hunterace (Casper Notto from Norway, 2018 Hearthstone World Champion) as the 2019 Hearthstone World Champion[3], claiming a prize of $200,000 (USD).
