Blizzcon Goody Bag
Michele Morrow got the Goody Bag and shared the contents with everyone. The included letter also mentioned that the Virtual Ticket is going on sale "really really soon"!
Inside:
- Blizzard messenger bag
- Murkidan pin
- Hearthstone luggage tag
- Inflatable Starcraft psi blade
- Overwatch (drink coaster?)
- Diablo keychain
- Heroes of the Storm Funko pop mystery figure
Blizzcon Digital Bonuses Code
The Digital Bonuses Codes went out to Blizzcon ticket holders today. These codes give you a Virtual Ticket, access to In-Game goodies, and the online sale. So far, we know that Murkidan will be one of the in-game rewards.
Don't forget that attendees can buy an extra Goody Bag this year! Also new this year, Virtual Ticket holders will have a chance to buy a BlizzCon Goody Bag of their own. No word on what will be in it this year, but you can get an idea by looking at last year's bag.

Low skill ceiling. There wasn't a way to really get better by playing more, which was always going to keep their dps down. (OccupyGStreet)
PvE
everyone thinks sun well wasn't planned and was a band-aid. Can you confirm it was part of the original BC plans or not?
I think it was added when LK ended up taking longer. I may be wrong. I don't trust my memory on that. (OccupyGStreet)
