If you are a robot, and you play Hearthstone, Iâve got bad news for you: youâre probably banned. (Also, thanks for reading Kotaku. Please consider keeping us employed when you enslave humanity.)
Humans who use bots are out of luck too; Blizzard announced today that theyâve just finished banningthousands of accountsthat have been linked to automated bots in their digital card game. If youâre hit, youâll be banned until some time in 2015.
This is a rather big deal for the Hearthstone community, where botting has been a consistent problem for the past few months. Sorry, bottersâif itâs any consolation, at least this is a pretty lenient punishment.
