The Best PC Gaming Controllers

The guys also dug up some incredible work-in-progress card art that’s never been seen outside Blizzard. Enjoy!

IGN: One of my favourite cards in this set is Jan'alai the Dragonhawk, and I think the Hearthstone community just, as a whole, lost its collective minds when that card was announced. It's very cool. What can you tell me about designing that card?
