Sorry, Cowherd: Heroes of the Storm returns to ESPN2 with $500K prize pool

Heroes of the Dorm may have brought in just a .1 Nielsen share last year, but the excitement — and business potential — of esports is growing already in 2016. It just makes sense that Blizzard Entertainment and ESPN are bringing the college-focused Heroes of the Storm event back for a second year.

And the prize pool is $500,000 — with $75,000 for each player on the winning team to use toward future tuition.
