Cosplay contest 2015
On Saturday, October 3, all the cosplayers are in luck! The European Road to Blizzcon will organize a cosplay contest at the O2 in Prague. During that Saturday until 14:30 p.m. a stand will be available with a professional photographer willing to take photos of your best World of Warcraft, Diablo, Starcraft II, Heroes of the Storm and Overwatch costumes. You will also have at your disposal changing rooms where you can equip your epic costumes.
That same afternoon the photos of the cosplays will be uploaded to a website where the spectators of the event and those of us who are at home (surely dead with envy) will be able to vote for the cosplay that we like the most.
