I guarantee you that Hearthstone employees were simply told to shut up until they were allowed to speak, not because they didn't want to speak.

There are many things that go on behind the scenes that we have no idea about. There are many repercussions to both going through with and cancelling the stream, all of which is managed by Blizzard's legal department. If you've worked in a company that has had such scandals (I personally have not, but I know someone who has), then you will know that employees will receive strict gag orders not allowing them to reveal any information about the situation, lest the company would fire them and take further legal actions against them. Therefore, it's not that they don't choose to talk, they're simply not allowed to talk until the legal department decides on what they want to do moving forward.

It's also entirely possible that nobody on Team 5 knew what was going to happen to the livestream before we did. The reveal livestream isn't something employees post on their personal social media accounts because they're just that: personal. They're not making official statements as Blizzard employees, which is what the reveal livestream would fall under.

If you want to hate Blizzard for whatever justifiable reason, then I'm not stopping you. All I'm saying is that stop saying that Team 5's silence is "unprofessional". Please don't jump to conclusions and blame people who likely have nothing to do with it whatsoever. 

You can read this Reddit thread that goes into more detail by someone who's more credible than me. I just did my own research after reading this on Google and from people I know that went through the same situation.

Competition Theme: The Best Deals Anywhere

We're looking for some fantastic deals this week, so make sure your card has some resale value!

• You must create a card with Tradeable, or that synergises with the Tradeable mechanic
  • We're looking for direct synergies like Auctioneer Jaxon, not something more tangential

This week, anchorm4n wants us to trade in Blizzard's designs for our own for the new expansion - what a deal!

As always, I can be reached through Discord or here on the site via PM if you have any issues to report.

Here are the phases of this card design competition

• Submission Phase: Starts on Mon, Jul 26 17:00 EDT (GMT -0400). Runs until Sat, Jul 31 17:00 EDT (GMT -0400)

Discussion Thread Rules

No thread rules were added to this season. Please populate and manually edit this thread with them.

This is a question I've been grappling with, and haven't really resolved yet. Particularly with a new expansion coming up, this seems like a moment where the fans can really make an impact and help support the cause of a just and equitable workplace for Blizzard employees.

Dormant minions consistently block "neighbor" effects like Combustion. In a recent game, my opponent played The Lurker Below, killing my left most minion, gliding over my Dormant Flightmaster Dungar, then dealing 3 damage to my next minion. That's inconsistent, right? Anyone else had similar experiences?
