It’s just a month until BlizzCon 2019, and just like always, if you won’t be able to attend in person, you can get a Virtual Ticket instead. It will allow you to watch the entire event live from your home, but also provide a lot of in-game loot for all of the Blizzard titles. And that includes Hearthstone!
When it comes to our favorite card game, we’ll get a unique Card Back (which was to be expected), as well as a mysterious Golden Legendary. We don’t know what it is yet, but it’s safe to assume that it will either be a card from the upcoming expansion or possibly a new Legendary like SN1P-SN4P. Marin the Fox was the card we’ve received 2 years ago, and it turned out that while the Golden version was exclusive to BlizzCon ticket holders, a regular one was given out to every player for free. What’s more important, however, is that Marin was playable before Kobolds & Catacombs launched – that particular card didn’t impact the meta a lot, but SN1P-SN4P has proven that a single card can absolutely do it. We might see the same pattern this time around.
Talking about the new expansion, the final set of each year is always announced at the BlizzCon, so that’s what we expect this time around too. Big announcements like that are usually done during the opening at the main stage (which is available to watch for free, even without a ticket), but we’re often getting some extra info / cards later during the panels. So in case you can’t watch it live, we’ll surely report everything on our site and social media!
Virtual Ticket is priced at $49.99 (€39.99), making the price exactly the same as last year.
