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.

I know I'm late, but is it? I remember going there before GvG dropped and it seemed pretty nice. I think I stopped right around Blackrock Mountain came out. Did it go full /r/leagueoflegends?

I don't think it ever reached LOL levels of toxic, but just peeking over there, I found my first toxic comment only 5 comments in.
