Just a minor detail. HotS is more of an expansion than just DLC. Considering it includes an entire single player campaign, several new cosmetic potraits, and decals. And a completely revamped multiplayer

I’m already playing it, and damn is it good!
Once the balancing is right, this expansion would be stellar, it actually has the potential to be the next brood war! ^^

I just learned via reddit, that if you preorder through Amazon you get a beta key, as long as they’re in stock.
