0s | when I joined the Hearthstone team the |
---|---|
2s | game was actually unannounced so I had |
5s | no idea what I was going to be working |
6s | on but then when the team showed me the |
8s | actual game I knew immediately that it |
11s | was going to be something very special |
13s | it's been an honor to be part of the har |
14s | Zone team each year the team is able to |
16s | drop three unique content drops and it's |
18s | always been awesome to see how this team |
19s | is able to deliver surprise and Delight |
21s | to players 2016 a great year for |
24s | harstone that was our first standard |
26s | rotation we had Whispers of the old gods |
28s | we partied in Kazan and visited the Mean |
30s | Streets of gadgets San it was also the |
32s | year that I decided I was going to quit |
34s | my job and come work at blizzard when |
36s | hero cards were first introduced they |
38s | absolutely Shook Up The Meta they gave |
40s | you new hero Powers they gave you new |

51s | hearstone hit 100 million players |
53s | although I wasn't on a team at that time |
56s | but I remember I was playing the game in |
58s | class and also seeing some of my other |
60s | classmates playing the game and then I |
63s | realized how popular the game had become |
65s | I remember looking around and seeing |
66s | everyone playing their favorite a Bor |
67s | and thinking wow we need to make one of |
69s | those for our own we put a small team |
71s | together worked hard and by the next |
72s | BlizzCon we launched hearstone |
74s | Battlegrounds what a fun year then we |
76s | introduced our first new class Demon |
79s | Hunter we learned a lot about what it |
80s | takes to make a new class in Hearthstone |
82s | some things were really difficult like |
84s | finding their perfect hero power some |
87s | things were really easy like getting the |
88s | balance just right I'm on the first try |
92s | 2021 was the year that we introduced Min |
94s | sets into the game and I remember that |
96s | really well because it was one of the |
98s | very first things that I worked on and I |
100s | was really excited to get more cards in |
102s | the hands of our players Battlegrounds |
104s | launched its first official season I |
107s | personally have a strong attachment to |
108s | Battlegrounds as it helps me stay close |
110s | in contact with my long-distance |
111s | boyfriend we're constantly battling to |
114s | see who can get the highest ELO each |
115s | season after 10 years of making new and |
118s | exciting things for Hearthstone it's |
120s | still still really awesome when we can |
122s | make something big like Titans or like |
124s | Battlegrounds Duos I think there's no |
126s | shortage of ideas that we still have and |
128s | the future looks really bright |
