Just in case Saturday, May 16 isn’t circled on your calendar, here’s a quick reminder that BlizzCon tickets will be going on sale tomorrow. After our gnomish engineers in Southern California get to work and finish making the final preparations late Saturday morning, they’ll activate the ticket-purchase process and BlizzCon tickets will officially go on sale. If you are unable to purchase tickets tomorrow, a second batch of tickets will go on sale May 30. And for those unable to attend the show, in-depth coverage of BlizzCon will also be offered by DIRECTV as a Pay Per View event, available both via satellite and Internet stream.

As usual there will be StarCraft II lore, art and gameplay panels at this year's BlizzCon:
Gameplay
The creators of StarCraft II discuss the design process and evolving mechanics of the upcoming real-time-strategy sequel.Lore
The writers who shape the ever-expanding StarCraft universe bring you up-to-date on the defining characters and events in the interstellar struggle between the Terrans, Protoss, and Zerg.
Art
Join Blizzard Entertainment artists for a discussion about the distinctive art style of the StarCraft universe -- and how that style continues to evolve with the development of StarCraft II.
WoWInsider has also revealed the details of a new pet that can be found in the BlizzCon 2009 goody bag: Grunty the Marine Murloc, which will also be available to anyone who orders the DirecTV pay-per-view package as a World of WarCraft in-game item.
As always, StarCraft: Legacy will be in attendance and providing full StarCraft-coverage of the event. Expect our coverage to be vastly improved this year due to our new system. If you are attending BlizzCon this year and would be on hand to gather some information for SC:L, contact gradius[at]sclegacy.com.
