Watching Blizzard - July 5, 2017: BlizzCon tickets are (mostly) gone (Patreon)

• Sorry, everyone, but the last batch of BlizzCon 2017 tickets sold out in less than ten minutes tonight. If you're still looking for a ticket, try LF BlizzCon for tickets listed at retail price — and remember, you only have until July 14 to assign tickets to ticketholders, so act fast.
• WoW's Midsummer Fire Festival is over, but Hearthstone's Midsummer Fire Festival has just begun. Get in game for a special Ragnaros brawl and doubt quest gold.
