Will both get you the icon for viewing or do you need to watch the blizzheroes to unlock the icon?

Is the bracket format the same as it was at Blizzcon?

And thanks for posting this. Keep them coming for other reginals as well :)

Any info on which heroes are banned? Stitches has been out for a while because of a bug, hoping he's available

Stitches is in play. Sorry I didn't see this earlier!

Will there be youtube streaming like for Blizzcon? I know the EU tourneys don't do it but the Americans did, and it worked so much better for me.

I don't believe so.
