Yo,

A quick question - is it possible to pre-download HOTS if you did not order a digital version from Blizzard (bough standard version a while ago to get my hands on beta key)?

And if yes, how and where ?

Believe it or not, but if you have WoL installed you already have HoTS if your WoL client is up to date.

Hahahahaha.. Back seat moderator gets burned.

I'm hoping I can just throw my credit card at blizzard when HotS goes live and start playing. *fingers crossed*

How is that possible? Finland is on EU server so you shouldn't be able to play HotS unless you moved to asia

From what I know as long as your WoL is up to date you have HotS from what I've read in this thread.
