This is disgusting. I'm waiting for them to make a statement but I don't think I can continue playing their games in good conscience.

This is causing a huge uproar in the community. A lot of pros and trusted members in the community are peacing out. For kibler to step down from commentating is huge. This might be the end for hearthstone.
Also, if you haven't read his statement, you probably should. It is a good read.
