I can confirm that the problem started after I clicked the Fireside Gathering
button.

I was able to solve the problem by installing dotnet45 in my existing 32-bit
wine 2.6 wineprefix in PlayOnLinux.

I noticed that the dotnet installation appeared to hang at two specific points:
msxml3 and during the patches to dotnet3. I installed msxml3 by itself using
PlayOnLinux, which seemed to work.

I surmise that the problem with the PoL dotnet3+ installation script is caused
by the script incorrectly waiting for human input. Here's the log message from
the point where it hangs:

Running wine-2.6 reg delete HKLM\Software\Microsoft\NET Framework
Setup\NDP\v3.5 (Working directory : ~/.PlayOnLinux/ressources/dotnet35)
Are you sure you want to delete the registry key
'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v3.5'? (Yes|No)

I also observed that during the freeze there was a process called "reg" hogging
CPU, which I presume is wine regedit.

I was able to get past this by waiting until the PlayOnLinux GUI froze at this
point in the dotnet install script. Then I ran "killall wineserver," and
PlayOnLinux resumed the install script successfully. Hearthstone now works.
