“Hey! I’m pleased and thrilled to announce that I finally can call myself a Na`vi boy. Pidgey (my budgie) has always had a crush on Na`vi, which also shows from her color. Moreover, I have followed “the Na`vi scene” for a long time because of my interest in DotA 2. In this regard, I’m happy that Na`vi has decided to expand their E-gaming horizon into the Hearthstone scene as well – and by picking up two of the best players out there at the moment in form of Ostkaka and Xixo it can only turn into something awesome! Finally, I’m honored and looking very much forward to represent Na`Vi in their first big Hearthstone Event this Friday – The Blizzcon Qualifier – together with Xixo and Ostkaka. This will definitely be the start of something unique”.

All 3 of the new teammates are competing in the BlizzCon qualifiers, and some might even make it to the EU Championship in Prague. You can keep up with the Hearthstone division of Team Na’Vi on their site, here. We wish them luck as they travel together on the Road to BlizzCon!
