    Starcraft 2 Commemorative Bundle
    In appreciation for John "Totalbiscuit" Bain and his family's contributions to Starcraft 2, Blizzard is releasing a commemorative bundle of cosmetics for the game. 100% of the profits will go to the Bain family as well as from any future sales of John's Announcer Pack. The bundle will be available this week and is a limited time item, becoming unavailable once it sells out or by December 31, 2018.

    Tbh did anyone actually ask Method to livestream this raid?

    Seems highly unlikely.

    How can a digital bundle 'sell out'? You have an infinite number of them, they're code.

    Sigh... well, at least they're doing this, something they didn't have to do. The addition of future sales of TB's announcer pack going to the family is really good too. I'll pick this up when I get home from work.

    The coins, magnets, etc. aren't bad for goodies. I'd like to see the digital goodies next!

    Yes, directly to the players of Method when they stream.

    They're probably using the idea that the bundle can sell out as a way to front load the sales of the bundle so that his family can get the money soon when they need it as opposed to later. That's my guess anyway. If Blizzard had anything less than pure intentions they'd be taking at least a small cut from this but that doesn't seem to be the case.

    Goodie bag is underwhelming for a 2nd year in a row

    I like how the only options are Champion of the Alliance and Enemy of the Horde

    Nice to see that WoW is clearly not one of Blizz's main attractions judging by that art.

    I wish they would have put half that much effort into the extras in the BfA Collector's Edition.

    the middle spins so your "champion of the horde, enemy of the alliance" or "Champion of the alliance, enemy of the horde."

    Besides making an artificial scarcity, there's probably a few reasons for limiting a number of digital bundles. Odds are in this case they have a set amount that they would want to donate because their financial people have figured out that if they were to donate a bit more then it would cause tax issues for either them, Genna, or both that would potentially lead into owing more money next year than they would like. Or if they live in England, there's possibly laws and limits about transferring money.

    Also I like how the coin seems to be the one Reinhardt had. I do kinda want that.

    This is also possible

    That’s a disappointing goodie bag. Probably not going to get this.

    The vinyl Diablo figure is the only cool thing in there.

    Great.. so their "goodie bag" is just a bag of $2 shit for you to throw away for them.

    How exciting...

  17. #17
    Probably only doing it because their roster is shit. They can use the age old excuse "Oh, we were streaming and stuff yea."

  18. #18
    Diablo Vinyl huh? Gimme that D2 remaster and something to look forward in the future!
    Other items seem pretty shit.

    Awesome stuff for John there, he's been so big for the western SC2 community.
