Eight months later, we can say with absolute certainty that the statement was grown in the deepest levels of Blizzard’s PR dungeon, sprinkled with the highest quality of Corporate brand bullshit, and masked with enough perfume so as to hide its decaying stench long enough for people to forget about the whole thing.

However, they seem to be content to sit in the pit they’ve dug for themselves. The Blizzard of today seeks to execute an entirely different vision than the Blizzard of twenty, and even ten years ago. Past performance is often a strong indicator of future action, and if in the future Blizzard were to gut Hearthstone’s esports and development team to reinvest into Call of Duty and Candy Crush , there would be no reason to be surpri
