YouTube Drops Return!

You can earn up to two Year of the Phoenix card packs this weekend as you watch Masters Tour Silvermoon! On any of the above YouTube channels, watch two total hours to receive one pack and two more hours for your second. Time watched is cumulative throughout the weekend, so even if you can’t watch for the full four hours in one sitting your time will still count toward earning the Drops.

Connecting Your Accounts

Before you can receive rewards, you’ll need to link your YouTube and Blizzard Battle.net accounts. Here’s how:  

  • Log in or create an account on YouTube.  
  • Navigate to Account Sharing under “Connected Apps” in Settings.  
  • Select “Connect” next to Battle.net.
  • Follow the simple prompts to finish connecting accounts.  
  • When connecting accounts, be sure that you’re currently logged into the Blizzard account on which you’d like to receive your Drops.
