In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Hearthstone” is a rare card of the Memes World series 76, number 22524 of the collection, and the 20th best-known meme of its 298 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.

What does the “Hearthstone” meme mean?

For players, “Hearthstone” points to a shared folklore of catchphrases and frustrations. The meme is the unlucky draw that loses a game at the worst moment, the card whose voice line became a rallying cry, or the overpowered deck that obsesses the community. People bring it up to tease a lucky opponent, to describe a match lost to randomness, or to quote a card character. The community blends collector pride, irony and nostalgia for its best moments, which keeps the old jokes alive well after expansions and nerfs.

Where does the “Hearthstone” meme come from?

Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft is developed by Blizzard Entertainment and set in the Warcraft universe. It was announced at PAX East on March 22, 2013, entered closed beta on August 26, 2013, open beta on January 21, 2014, and officially launched on March 11, 2014. Expansions followed, including Curse of Naxxramas in July 2014 and Goblins vs. Gnomes in December 2014. On the meme side, Know Your Meme lists “You face Jaraxxus, Eredar Lord of the Burning Legion!”, Uther’s “Well Met,” Grim Patron’s “EVERYONE, GET IN HERE!” and Patches the Pirate’s “I’m in charge now!” In early 2019, a change to Jaina Proudmoore’s artwork sparked a wide online debate.
