First Ever Female Hearthstone World Champion!

23-years-old Xiaomeng “VKLiooon” Li of Vk Esports has made history as the first ever Hearthstone Grandmasters Global Finals Champion, winning herself $200,000 USD in the process. Hearthstone first launched in March 2014, making this the first time in five years that a woman has walked away with the first-place HS trophy. Furthermore, she is also the first Chinese competitor to win a global BlizzCon tournament, as well as the first female to win a title at any BlizzCon event. This is saying a lot, since the first BlizzCon was held in 2005.

During the Global finals, which took place in Anaheim, CA, Li started out by defeating the 2017 Global Champion, Chen ‘tom60229’ Wei Lin, 2-0 before defeating Chris ‘Fenomeno’ Tsakupoulos with 2-0 as well. However, her final match-up proved to be a tougher battle, as she managed to eke out a defeat against Kevin ‘Casie’ Eberlein at 3-2. She then came back with a clean sweep in her final match-up against Brian ‘bloodyface’ Essen with a 3-0 victory. A full break down of the bracket placements and wins can be found here.

She has been playing Hearthstone for a few years and is an established streamer in China. She currently lives in Xinjiang, which is an autonomous region located in northwest China.
