HSWP

What does HSWP mean?

HSWP is a speech bubble that says Well Played. In Hearthstone, the well-played emote is famous for meaning exactly what it says and also the opposite, depending on whether you just got destroyed. Chat inherited both readings. A sincere HSWP is a compliment. A lone HSWP after a brutal outplay is not.

Origin

The pair to HSCheers. Twitch put the words in a bubble so the Hearthstone gesture would work in every chat, not only over the card table. The sarcasm is optional and traditional. Kappa next to it removes the ambiguity, which is sometimes less fun.

When to use HSWP

• The end of a match, sincere or extremely not
• Acknowledging an outplay that hurt
• Hearthstone and other card games
• With Kappa only if you want the sarcasm undeniable
