Join us on Friday, July 26 at 10 a.m. PDT for our first-ever live stream of The Forge on the Hearthstone Twitch.tv channel at http://www.twitch.tv/playhearthstone. Our designers will take you into the burning heart of this alternative game mode, showing you how to hone your deck-building skills into a weapon of absolute dueling dominance. Will our card choices align with yours? You’ll have to watch to find out!

Along with taking you further into The Forge than ever before, we’ll also be talking about some of the exciting changes we’ve made to the mode since we first unveiled it.

Learn more about Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft on the official site, and stop by the forums to take part in the discussion. Opt in to the beta on Battle.net here.

*Warning: The heroes of Hearthstone are unable to be honed or sharpened in the literal sense. Please do not drag them over a whetstone, trim them down, or insert them into an actual forge for smithing purposes.
