To secure your free in-game portrait, you’ll first need to link your Twitch.tv and Battle.net accounts by doing the following:
- Log in or create an account on Twitch.tv.
- Navigate to the Settings menu by clicking your account name in the top-right corner of the home screen.
- Navigate to the Connections tab of the Settings menu.

After you’ve linked your accounts, simply watch any game in the WCS 2016 Winter Championships via the Twitch.tv channels listed in our survival guide to receive your portrait. Please note that the portrait should appear in your collection approximately two weeks after the event’s conclusion.
