        @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

          @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

              @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

                @musicalcolin @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec In terms of perspective, I think it changed from “How do you win with these cards the most often” to “How do you make these cards the most fun”

          @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec One of them is @ACortes2018 , who for probably the first 6 months of my job, I really only knew as his Overwatch IGN: TheTacoKing. At some point a few months ago, I remember sitting down and seeing some of the cool new animations for Stormwind

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @musicalcolin @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec In terms of perspective, I think it changed from “How do you win with these cards the most often” to “How do you make these cards the most fun”

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @musicalcolin @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec In terms of perspective, I think it changed from “How do you win with these cards the most often” to “How do you make these cards the most fun”

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @musicalcolin @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec In terms of perspective, I think it changed from “How do you win with these cards the most often” to “How do you make these cards the most fun”

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

          @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec One of them is @ACortes2018 , who for probably the first 6 months of my job, I really only knew as his Overwatch IGN: TheTacoKing. At some point a few months ago, I remember sitting down and seeing some of the cool new animations for Stormwind

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @musicalcolin @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec In terms of perspective, I think it changed from “How do you win with these cards the most often” to “How do you make these cards the most fun”

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

          @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec One of them is @ACortes2018 , who for probably the first 6 months of my job, I really only knew as his Overwatch IGN: TheTacoKing. At some point a few months ago, I remember sitting down and seeing some of the cool new animations for Stormwind

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

        @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec One story I can share related to this: We frequently have games of Overwatch going after work ends Friday, and there are a couple regulars who show up (I'm a fiend for Overwatch, so I hang out with them all the time)

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

        @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec One story I can share related to this: We frequently have games of Overwatch going after work ends Friday, and there are a couple regulars who show up (I'm a fiend for Overwatch, so I hang out with them all the time)

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @musicalcolin @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec In terms of perspective, I think it changed from “How do you win with these cards the most often” to “How do you make these cards the most fun”

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @musicalcolin @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec In terms of perspective, I think it changed from “How do you win with these cards the most often” to “How do you make these cards the most fun”

          @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec One of them is @ACortes2018 , who for probably the first 6 months of my job, I really only knew as his Overwatch IGN: TheTacoKing. At some point a few months ago, I remember sitting down and seeing some of the cool new animations for Stormwind

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

          @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec One of them is @ACortes2018 , who for probably the first 6 months of my job, I really only knew as his Overwatch IGN: TheTacoKing. At some point a few months ago, I remember sitting down and seeing some of the cool new animations for Stormwind

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

        @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec One story I can share related to this: We frequently have games of Overwatch going after work ends Friday, and there are a couple regulars who show up (I'm a fiend for Overwatch, so I hang out with them all the time)

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @musicalcolin @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec In terms of perspective, I think it changed from “How do you win with these cards the most often” to “How do you make these cards the most fun”

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @musicalcolin @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec In terms of perspective, I think it changed from “How do you win with these cards the most often” to “How do you make these cards the most fun”

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

          @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec One of them is @ACortes2018 , who for probably the first 6 months of my job, I really only knew as his Overwatch IGN: TheTacoKing. At some point a few months ago, I remember sitting down and seeing some of the cool new animations for Stormwind

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @musicalcolin @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec In terms of perspective, I think it changed from “How do you win with these cards the most often” to “How do you make these cards the most fun”

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @musicalcolin @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec In terms of perspective, I think it changed from “How do you win with these cards the most often” to “How do you make these cards the most fun”

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @musicalcolin @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec In terms of perspective, I think it changed from “How do you win with these cards the most often” to “How do you make these cards the most fun”

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @musicalcolin @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec In terms of perspective, I think it changed from “How do you win with these cards the most often” to “How do you make these cards the most fun”

          @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec One of them is @ACortes2018 , who for probably the first 6 months of my job, I really only knew as his Overwatch IGN: TheTacoKing. At some point a few months ago, I remember sitting down and seeing some of the cool new animations for Stormwind

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @musicalcolin @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec In terms of perspective, I think it changed from “How do you win with these cards the most often” to “How do you make these cards the most fun”

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @musicalcolin @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec In terms of perspective, I think it changed from “How do you win with these cards the most often” to “How do you make these cards the most fun”

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec One of them is @ACortes2018 , who for probably the first 6 months of my job, I really only knew as his Overwatch IGN: TheTacoKing. At some point a few months ago, I remember sitting down and seeing some of the cool new animations for Stormwind

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @musicalcolin @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec In terms of perspective, I think it changed from “How do you win with these cards the most often” to “How do you make these cards the most fun”

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

          @GallonHS @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec Would love to hear how your perspective on hearthstone has changed going from being a top tier player to a member of the design team. Were there things you wanted to change when you were a player that you no longer or vice versa?

            @musicalcolin @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec In terms of perspective, I think it changed from “How do you win with these cards the most often” to “How do you make these cards the most fun”

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

          @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec One of them is @ACortes2018 , who for probably the first 6 months of my job, I really only knew as his Overwatch IGN: TheTacoKing. At some point a few months ago, I remember sitting down and seeing some of the cool new animations for Stormwind

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

      @ben_heathstone I think going in to the job I had met a lot of the people on the Design team (@GW_Alec used to be an innkeeper for HCT events way back in 2018) and they were all awesome, but I hadn't really gotten a chance to meet a ton of people on Team 5 in other disciplines

        @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec One story I can share related to this: We frequently have games of Overwatch going after work ends Friday, and there are a couple regulars who show up (I'm a fiend for Overwatch, so I hang out with them all the time)

          @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec One of them is @ACortes2018 , who for probably the first 6 months of my job, I really only knew as his Overwatch IGN: TheTacoKing. At some point a few months ago, I remember sitting down and seeing some of the cool new animations for Stormwind

            @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 One of the card animations was literally the COOLEST FREAKIN THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Turns out TheTacoKing, one of the people I'd been cracking jokes with in Overwatch for the last 8 months or so, was this absolutely, stone cold, absurdly good VFX artist without me knowing.

              @ben_heathstone @GW_Alec @ACortes2018 There's a lot of people like Alex on the team who are insane at what they do who I'd never met before joining -- I guess in some ways I didn't fully realize all the talented things happening behind the scenes.

    @ben_heathstone Hmmm.... in some ways yes, but in other ways no? It often caught me by surprise (in a good way). A lot of learning involved and that continues everyday. One thing that wasn't really a surprise but is still incredibly cool is how many insanely talented people you interact with
