World Of Warcraft's infamous pandemic is causing tense moments in Hearthstone esports
World Of Warcraft’s “Corrupted Blood incident” swept through the game over a decade ago. A debuff inflicted by an end boss, Hakkar The Soulflayer, wasn’t supposed to leave the raid area, but was accidentally carried by pets throughout Azeroth, causing a pandemic and ensuing panic that emptied out towns, killed low-level characters, and was eventually studied by epidemiologists to see how people might react to a plague in the real world.
Blizzard’s spin-off card game, Hearthstone, cheerily added a tribute to the event in the form of adding Hakkar himself as a legendary card. When killed, he adds a new card to both players’ decks, Corrupted Blood. When drawn, it deals three damage and shuffles two new Corrupted Bloods back in, which can snowball quickly. Still, it was a novelty addition that’s not been seriously played – except, in recent competitions, by accident.
