Blizzard WWI 2008 - Paris (Diablo 3!!)

[Ishido]

As expected... it now looks more like Diablo.

2:30 left until the opening ceremonies.

[Scythiroth]

I don't know... Still somewhat looks like the Lich King helmet, could go either way.

[Foof]

I'm still leaning towards Diablo. The parts above/below the eyes no longer look like metal (even if it was beat up some) and the part to the bottom/right looks like the tip to a curled horn.

quoted from d2jsp forums:

also, with my excellent analyzing skills, youll also notice next to each rune is a little bomb, and what appears to be a letter/letters


all of them have it, except the top rune.

if anyone is feeling up to it, you can blow the image up to try and see what letters they are


update: found this in another thread

this is the book being given out at wwii right now:

God I hope this is what I think it is.

also, if you look at http://www.sc2blog.com/wp-content/up...dcoverscan.jpg


it REALLY looks like diablo.

[Guitarman]

Curled horn doesnt match up though. Unless they redesigned Diablo.

they did it for diablo 2.

[Guitarman]

I pray your right. Although:

Could just be the blade we're seeing. Eyes match up better than arthas himself, and they do have horns that could extend to the sides of the eyes.

Edit: The book cover is pretty much a dead giveaway for diablo though.

[Blackmagik]

thanks for ruining my hopes and dreams, it does sorta match with the sword :'(

[Vandole]

wat

[Guitarman]

It's the tip of a curled horn by the looks.

[Vandole]

based on that assumption it cant be lich king's sword... i think

[Scythiroth]

You are right, it does look like a potential curled horn...

This is really funny, I love all this speculation about an image that changes each day. This has me excited for midnight as much as the SSB:B updates were causing me to be. >.>

Look again at the picture i posted. There are two horns that curl behind the front of the sword. They protrude form the top of the head on the hilt. The direction of the curling points to the tip of the horn staying closer to the side of the face, much like the image we're seeing.

sorry, had to

[Blackmagik]

also, now that i look at it, why does the eyes have a glow and the misty look coming from them going to the sides? im pretty sure its not the sword >.>

[Guitarman]

artistic liberty i guess. Your guess is as good as mine. We'll find out in a few hours.

[Gagaga]

the lit up runes can form a pentagram also; maybe im looking into this too hard lul

[Guitarman]

Yeah why are 5 of the 6 lit? What does the 6th unlit rune represent?
