Ben Brode is a member of Team 5. He is currently the game director for Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft,[1] formerly holding the position of lead designer.
Brode joined Blizzard Entertainment in 2003, and during his tenure has served in numerous roles throughout the company. His first role was as a tester on Warcraft III, followed by a position in quality assurance on World of Warcraft. Before joining the Hearthstone team, Brode was part of Blizzard's creative development department, in charge of licensed products.[2]
Brode plays World of Warcraft,[3] and as of June 2014 his main is a Brewmaster monk.[3] He has also mentioned playing "a lot" of Heroes of the Storm.[4] Brode has all the mounts from the Argent Tournament.[5]
He is referenced in World of Warcraft with Benjamin Brode <Traveling Salesman>, who wanders around players' Garrisons and sells Hearthstone-related toys, and with [Tome of the Lost], whose flavor text reads: "The title reads "The Brode to Nowhere"". Ben of the Booming Voice is likely another reference, as Brode is known for his hearty laugh and for sporting a chequered shirt.
