Title: installing battle net is a bit of chore, but other than that was very impressed with how smoothly this runs on steam deck. Combined with Steam Dock and instant console mode. Highly recommend.

That is pretty awesome. I didn't realize you could run battle.net on Linux. Last time I looked into this though was right before D2:R came out and was trying to get it working on Pop!_OS. Can't remember much, but I do remember not really being able to get it to work.

Glad to see that things have progressed. I don't own a steam deck, but I'm definitely filing this away as something that is possible to do. However, I'm really enjoying D4 on my xbox. :)

I've only used bnet on desktop and it's really easy to install using Lutris. Overwatch 2, HotS and Diablo 4 all play well, while CoD does not. One time several Linux users, myself included, got caught in a ban wave for Overwatch. And while their support insisted that we were caught cheating and sanctioned correctly, a few days later they sent us an email with an apology and reinstated our accounts.
