There will be a Korean stream and an English stream with unannounced broadcast talent on the Blizzcon-Strategy channel. It starts 12:10 AM CET on Saturday.
This actually sounds kinda cool. Better than nothing. Finally we have some info about it!
edit: I just saw that theres already a thread in the BW section maybe delete this post? idk

wow...not impressed, neither hyped tbh. Very uninspired and not what at least I was imagining, when they said "there will be some kind of sc2 event at Blizzcon." Blizzard never fails to dissapoint these days

I mean, 1v1 on big game hunters?

What's super funny, is that this overlaps with IEM and ASTL. So more proof that this whole thing by blizzard was just an after thought. Really don't know why they are trying to squeeze in a Blizzcon in February. Would have been way smarter to just have it on the usual date late in the year. That way they have more content to announce.

Lost Temple is eternal. This will be silly but who cares it has MVP!

Any StarCraft is better than no StarCraft, but this kind of haphazardly put together event really feels like a case of trying to please everyone but ending up pleasing no one

I don't understand who these games are supposed to appeal to...

Last is way to recent and unaccomplished to be in the bonjwa/greatest category. I don't disagree that he is awesome though and if he hadn't experienced injuries, he might have a few more championships under his belt. I'm surprised he's even playing given his condition.
Ranking of these matchups: If these maps are SC1 versions, it should be a landslide for the BW players.
If these maps are SC2 versions, I think the MVP + Nestea 2v2 would be the only heavily favored matchup for the SC2 pros.

That's not a lot of content lol, and it also begs the question what do they announce with the Blizzcon after this? Not like they are taking on many new projects.

I am pleased because my lord and savior MVP has made an appearance

Individual also is a FFA on Big Game hunters? That realy sucks. I m fine with 2v2, it s a great format for such an event, but no 1v1 at all is realy taking it for me. Also I probably don t follow the scene long enough (and don t follow BW at al) to have an opinion about any of those players but PartinG

I guess it's mostly for the Korean BW scene and they threw in some SC2 player for good measure.

There better be some highlighting of MC+PartinG banter!
I guess this is why PartinG played some BW.

After the recent statement about the „multiple mobile WarCraft Games“ I‘m scared shitless that they have the audacity to repeat their Diablo:Immortal disaster
