Blizzcon 2015: Cosplay Extravaganza

Every year hundreds upon hundreds of Blizzard fans gather at Blizzcon to show off their cosplay outfits and costume creation talents in various competitions. Blizzcon 2015 featured several different contests, with talent, cosplay, video and art categories. This time around the final showdown was hosted by self-appointed master of nerds Will Wheaton, who took the stage for a huge 2.5 hour marathon that can only be described as awesome (at least, it's awesome for those who love this side of the community).

At home you could only watch the event live via the rather expensive virtual ticket so we wanted to bring you the best of the contest here. What do you think? Tell us you favourites in the comments.
