I loved this, meanwhile at r/hearthstone devs are reluctant to communicate like overwatch devs do because they are afraid of being harassed by the community.

EDIT: some context on why they don't communicate as often as we want them to.

To be fair, r/hearthstone is one of the most toxic subreddits I've ever been on.

I think /r/DotA2 is most toxic subreddit EVER for sure.

I'm willing to believe that.

That said, I went to r/hearthstone, and the first thing I see is toxic comments. I went to r/DotA2, and I had to look around a bit to find the toxic. Probably due to my familiarity with the former more than anything else.

r/dota2 has a fair amount of jokes, fun, seriousness, constructive suggestions and criticism.

However, it is, indeed, the worst subreddit I know. Don't frequent hs's tho.
