StarCraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Release Date Announced, Poll: Who's the Greatest "Great Evil"?, Fowl Lair (Wheel of Misfortune)

StarCraft 2: Heart of the Swarm Release Date Announced
The first expansion to StarCraft 2 finally got a date announced and with it come sweet things for the Diablo players who purchase it. Below it you can find the Diablo 3 bonus for buying the game - Bone Wings, which are exact copies of Kerrigan's wings. We actually dug those up a few weeks ago, but can finally see them in action. The ingame screenshot is by Xenocow.

Whether you plan to tear a path of destruction through the all-new Kerrigan-focused single-player campaign or jump right into the multiplayer action with the devastating new units under your command, it’s never too early to begin preparing for your Heart of the Swarm experience. Simply log in to your Battle.net® account and pre-purchase Heart of the Swarm, and you’ll be flagged to automatically download the expansion content prior to launch.

Poll: Who's the Greatest "Great Evil"?
A new Poll on Battle.net questions players on who the greatest of the Great Evils is.

The realms of the Burning Hells are divided among seven Great Evils: the three Prime Evils (Diablo, Mephisto, and Baal), and the four Lesser Evils (Andariel, Duriel, Belial, and Azmodan). Together, they represent corruption in its purest form, serving as avatars for terror, anguish, pain, and even sin itself. They are cunning, deceptive, and above all...powerful.

But of the seven demon lords who preside (or have once presided) over the forces of the Burning Hells, which is your favorite? In your mind, who do you believe is the greatest of the Great Evils?



Fowl Lair (Wheel of Misfortune)
Some players have been having a very hard time getting the Wheel of Misfortune achievement. Grimiku dropped by to insure them that nothing about the Wheel has changed during patches.

This seems to be the rarest of them all!
Just so you know, we did not change the chances for the Fowl Lair to appear in the Wheel of Misfortune. I have never found it either, but have only spent a fraction of the time searching for it that you have.
