Love U Lots become Hearthstone Trinity Series Season 2 Champions

After an intense Season 2 of Hearthstone Trinity Series, only four teams advanced to compete at the Live Finals in Burbank, California for their share of a $150,000 prize pool. Each team battled through three days of heated competition, but it was Love U Lots who emerged as the Trinity Series Season 2 Champions.

The new Kobolds & Catacombs expansion for Hearthstone was released just before the start of Trinity Series Live Finals and the teams had less than 24 hours to practice with the new cards. Let’s take a look at how the weekend unfolded!
