I'm guessing it simply represents Blizzard, and their most popular franchises, not focusing on just one; it is the Worldwide Invitational, after all.

Dunno what to think about the evil, furry, purple penguin though.
Deer Hunter?

Since you include Lost Vikings, which isn't by Blizzard... Allan Pavlish went off in another direction and Deer Hunter is his last game and he was one of the main Producers of Lost Vikings... So I guess that counts too? =)

Yeah and? Lost Vikings was made by Silicon & Synapse, Inc. Just some of the main people on that project went to form Blizzard. Not the entire team though.

The Lost Vikings for DOS - MobyGames Tell me where it says Blizzard there

No, Silicon & Synapse IS blizzard. They changed their name, they didn't go on to form, it was just a name change.

Odd how the Silicon & Synapse link goes to Blizzard. And how on the Blizzard page they mention formerly known as Silicon & Synapse.

Smash Brothers 2 for the Wii! Blizzard Edition.
Hey they already got the arena thing going, just need to throw in all their characters.

Sounds like to me they're just going to make announcements for all their games in development. Wotlk beta/expected release date, SC2 beta/expected release date maybe a 4th race but I think they already said they wanted to stick to 3, and of course Diablo 3.

They changed the name of the company. TSilicon & Synapse, Inc. is Blizzard.

That really does look like a protoss.

I don't understand why they would to a teaser for SC2. Even a 4th race.
Starcraft Ghost is dead.

Starcraft MMO?
There was a pretty big stink when WoW came out that it SHOULD have been a starcraft mmo.

Oh, I know.

If you want to get all technical you are wrong again

Silicon & Synapse was renamed to Chaos Studios From Feb 1994 to April 1994, then Chad Studios was renamed to Blizzard Entertainment.

Probably some early concept art from WotLK. Who does feature evil armored penguins (see datamined models).
