Nick D'Orazio leads the conversation as Eric Gindele and Lara Lunardi share their experiences and opinions about BlizzCon and every title announced.
Although the game has only been out for one week, Activision Blizzard's development team is making sure that Hearthstone Battlegrounds is getting the respect it deserves. On Monday afternoon, a member of the Hearthstone community team shared the game's first patch notes since the mode went into Early Access last week. With numerous balance changes, game fixes, and updates taking place, Blizzard is working to ensure that Battlegrounds isn't a flash in the pan. The following changes are currently live on the PC version of the game while the mobile version will be updated over the next few hours.
Activision Blizzard's take on the popular auto-chess genre, Hearthstone Battlegrounds, has only been live via early access for three days but that hasn't stopped the game's community from debating over what (or who) is best. With 24 different heroes to choose from, all of which have a unique hero power that is intended to keep gameplay fresh, there are bound to be some that are better than others at any given time depending on the meta.
Inven Global spoke to Ben Thompson, developer and Art Director for Blizzard, and Mike Donais, Hearthstone's Principal Game Designer, at BlizzCon 2019 about the creative integrity of Hearthstone, the humble beginnings of Battlegrounds' development, and the importance of looking at the long- term with the sudden uptick of competition from other developers in the industry.

Long before Hearthstone was announced in March of 2013, the development team had been making cards to go into the game. In the six-plus years since, thousands upon thousands of cards have been theorycrafted, designed, coded, tested, implemented, played and enjoyed. Cards with a more basic "pack filler" design may take only a few man-hours to create, design and test before they go live. And others, the development cycle can be much longer. In the most recent Hearthstone card expansion Saviors of Uldum the development team pushed their creative limits to new heights by creating a card that took more man-hours than any other in the game's history, Zephrys the Great. A unique design that combines skill and luck, this genie means business and has captured players interest since the expansion went live in recent weeks.
