Are we Getting Another Exclusive Golden Legendary? BlizzCon 2017 Digital Goodies
Blizzard has unveiled all the BlizzCon goodies today, but Hearthstone's is a secret which will be available sometime after BlizzCon.
This is just like the 2013 BlizzCon announcement which showcased the legendary "Mystery Minion" which was later unveiled to be Elite Tauren Chieftain. It looks like we're not getting another card back this year, but maybe that's okay.
We're going to see the next Hearthstone expansion announced at this year's BlizzCon, so maybe this Golden Legendary is going to tie into that if it isn't an exclusive craft like Elite Tauren Chieftain's golden version.
You can obtain the BlizzCon 2017 Digital Goodies by buying a Virtual Ticket for $40 or if you're holding a physical BlizzCon ticket, which have been sold out for some time.
Other Goodies
Blizzard's other titles are also getting in-game goodies, most of which are available today.
- World of Warcraft: Stormwind Skychaser and Orgrimmar Interceptor
- Overwatch: BlizzCon 2017 Winston Skin
- StarCraft II: Junker SCV, Probe, and Drone Skins
- Heroes of the Storm: Nexus Razorback Mount…and More!
- Diablo III: Murkromancer Pet
Saying that 40 dollars per day is a daily paycheck in a "stupidly poor country" just demonstrates that you don't know what you are talking about.
Another "event" for only a couple of people. Not everyone has the time, the money or the intesrest for this kind of thing, especially for a card that might end up rubbish...
I'd be surprised if it was a "must have" card. Elite Tauren Chieftain wasn't remarkable; more fun than useful. Since it benefited both players equally, it wasn't a game changer (and still isn't played much). There would be a major outcry if something equivalent to a Dr. Boom was released as an exclusive to such an event. I'm expecting something interesting, but by no means game changing.
Blizzard has already stated that they don't want to release exclusive necessary content, so it's a sure bet that the card is not necessary, or it's craftable.
"Blizzard has unveiled all the BlizzCon goodies today, but Hearthstone's is a secret which will be available sometime after BlizzCon."
after blizzcon? so i need to buy a virtual ticket and pray and I may or may not get a golden legendary??? I don't really get this
They'll definitely announce it at BlizzCon at the latest.
You can always pickup a virtual ticket for BlizzCon the day of, and up to at least a month after the con has ended, giving you plenty of time to pick it up should you choose to.
Is this a golden legendary that's already in the game or an exclusive one they're adding?
We don't know.
What the heck is a virtual ticket?
basically you pay to watch it streamed and they give you a bunch of bullshit to make you not think you wasted your money.
Lets say im staying far far away from the venue and have a 100% chance of not attending....and i only play hearthstons.....by paying usd 40...i can only get special 1 golden legendary minion? Thats pretty much all it has to offer?
You get to watch all the Blizzcon livestream content live as well.
You also get to watch all the panels online via the BlizzCon website (not available for free).
I'd take a look at Blizzard's official page on Virtual Tickets to learn more.

If you aren't interested though, we'll be covering all the Hearthstone information presented during their panels right here on the site, so you can swing on by at your own convenience to see whats up with HS.
There is no real benefit to watching it live. It gets reported the second it happens, and uploaded when it's done. really the only benefit is the digital swag. Mounts/Pets/Skins/Cards. That's how it's been for the decade I've been paying attention. Rinse, wash, Repeat.
It's a ticket that's virtual.
Ok.... Fucking bullshit. Those WoW mounts are WAY too cool to be BlizzCon goodies! It needs to be something lame! Like a rideable Murloc! ....Okay, that's too cool for BlizzCon as well!
Dammit! Just recolor another bear and call it a day!
I need a BlizzCon bear. I would accept a recolor!!
Or the Murloc costume. OH MY GOD I NEED THAT.
If I buy the Virtual ticket, the Legendary will be something I don't care about. If I don't buy the ticket, the card will be something I badly want. I just know it to be true.
