Virtual Ticket is only needed for Developer Panels, In-Depth Interviews, Costume and Talent Contests—Featuring Thomas Middleditch, Closing Concert—“Weird Al” Yankovic.
The title of the expansion will be announced for free. Then the panel will go over the new expansion, this part is for ticketholders only. They did this for League of Explorers and other Blizzard content last year.
This is really useful, cheers!
I'm tempted to drop 40 bills just for the card back.
40 bills?
meh I just didn't understood what he meant by "40 bills", I didn't knew that ticket cost 40$ for you guys, for me(Rus) it shows ~15$ price, didn't expected such kind gesture from blizzard.
What determines the bracket seedings? The first thing I noticed was the 2 China men battling it out in first round but I then noticed the 2 Americans in separate brackets. Am I looking into this too much or is this a valid argument. Americans are the only other country representing 2 players as is China but it is clear that the Americans have the best probability for having a finalist or winner if not an all American final. Imy not sure why it isn't set up for the China men like it is the Americans . I could honestly care less as I feel anyone can win this but it's something that stood out to me.
AHH . ..Thanks dude for the clarification .
They have Hearthstone ''what's next'' scheduled 15 minutes into the Opening Ceremony so it's gonna be one of the first things revealed which everyone will be able to see. Also all the Championship games will be streaming on Twitch....Only thing that is locked by Virtual Ticket is Costume Contests, Closing Ceremony, and Info Panels.
They always show the opening video revealing what it's about then dive into some new cards which will be Opening ceremony ''What's next'' Then right after when the panel starts they will talk about other changes coming, more card reveals, more in depth.. etc...
So Playhearthstone will cover only eSports? Nobody will stream the Expansion announcement?
The opening ceremony is free, and they will streaming it on multiple platforms. All announcemants will be there.
The What's New panel is only available to Virtual Ticket holders ($40). They'll probably reveal the expansion title in the opening ceremony though, which is free, and will broadcast on the playhearthstone twitch channel.
For those of you without passes, we'll have live coverage of the what's new panel here on the site. We'll have an article up shortly before the panel begins.
Thank you so much for your clear response, i remeber last exp your "Live article" :) you just did a really good job! Thank you so much for you work tomorrow! :) Love hearthpwn!
^ coolest deathwing ever
It's 2 EU, 3 NA, 1 Asia/Pacific, and 2 China.
Just bein' more specific.
Does China not use the Asia/Pacific server?
They do use the Asia server, however, China IS the biggest playerbase for Hearthstone by a long shot.
I kid you not, their e-Sports scene for Hearthstone is bigger than any other region D:
Asia Pacific is a funny thing - depending on which region in APAC you are in, you are either using Americas or the Asia server. It's a complicated thing :S
