The Hearthstone Creator Program is also looking for those who are passionate about the game, are consistent with content creation and socials, care about the community, and have built an active community on platforms such as Twitter and Discord.

On Blizzard's side of things, they will provide early access to future content alongside a direct channel with the Hearthstone development team. This will be in addition to giveaway codes, special events, and influencer merch.
