## Resource

The BlizzCon schedule is now live! That means the podcast crew, joined by resident  Diablo  maven Liz Patt, are breaking it all down. We start with discussing the schedule itself, and then move into the wild speculation we do best. The schedule also includes times and channels for watching BlizzCon on Twitch, which also includes a ton of Drops and other items you can earn from watching.  Hearthstone  and  Diablo  have the same number of panels and share a space on the show floor.  Overwatch  has slightly more panels, and the Matt Mercer effect, and a whole area all to itself. And then  WoW  has even more panels and a huge hall to fill to boot. What does it mean? That's where the wild speculation comes into play. We get into  Classic  speculation, what  Heroes of the Storm  is up to, and 30 years of Battle.net. On  Diablo 5 , as Liz said in the episode, we're not going to hold our breath, because we need to breathe to live.
