Hearthstone’s lead mission designer has been writing poems about Kobolds & Catacombs

Hearthstone BlizzCon 2017

Hearthstone’s new expansion, Kobolds & Catacombs, is out very soon, and one of its developers has been celebrating in a surprising way. Lead mission designer Dave Kosak has been writing poems to tease some of the secrets in the new patch.

All of his poems are a little cryptic, but they all offer some interesting stories. There’s Kobold pirate Candlebeard, a murloc named Tad, and another kobold, Dnir, who delves too deep in a poem hinting at the new Dungeon Run game mode. There’s even a poem about fellow developer Ben Brode and streamer Day[9].
