News - StarCraft II

BlizzCon 2010 is unleashed today upon the masses. From the torched claws of dragon-born cataclysm, the determined steps of the heroes in Santuary or the gentle hum from the bridge of the Hyperion, this realm created within the halls of the Anaheim Convention Center has a whirlwind of anticipation coming from the crowd waiting to burst through its doors. While all three of the anticipated titles are represented in good standards, it's obvious that StarCraft II has a significant amount to show off this year with six panels involving its universe. Don't forget how StarCraft II can influence the Costume, Song and Dance contests, as well as the Opening and Closing Ceremonies.

Those looking forward to some StarCraft II Gameplay won't be discouraged. The StarCraft II Invitational presents a total of nine matches leading up to the Grand Finals. Word has been released that a special exhibition match pitting FruitDealer, Champion of GSL1, versus the Terran Emporer himself SlayerS_Boxer, Legendary E-sports Phenomenon of StarCraft: Brood War. This promises to be an epic RTS tournament stage indeed.

If you weren't able to get a ticket to BlizzCon, you can still purchase a BlizzCon Virtual Ticket and watch all the epicness for the cost of 39.99 USD. If the price tag is a bit too much for you, feel free to join others in the community in the StarCraft: Legacy IRC event chat room and partake in the plethora of information with our live down-to-the-minute coverage. Take time and stick around to discuss it with others between panels. After BlizzCon closes its doors every day you can also stop on over to the Legacy Observer where the highlights of the day are touched upon.

As always, you can expect articles from StarCraft: Legacy providing refined coverage of every aspect of StarCraft II within the BlizzCon Convention. We have staff on the panel floors, we have staff here in house working on coverage, and we have staff in our chat providing up to the minute coverage. We hope to see you there!
