Blizzcon 2015 Predictions
On episode 29 of TankCast, Arielle and I discussed our Blizzcon predictions. I’m always too conservative when it comes to predictions because Blizzard always surprises me, but I still try.
If you wish to hear our conversation on this topic, tune in to episode 29 of TankCast. This post includes what we talked about with a few more specifics added on my part.

Demon Hunter News from Gamescom 2015 Interviews
Some minor clarifications on the initial demon hunter announcement.
Weapons
Perhaps contrary to the official page, Demon Hunters will only be able to wield a brand new weapon type unique to the class: Glaives.
