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.

I've been meaning to try it. Was it as simple as any other battle.net game as far as getting it to run?

Yeah, I didn’t have to do anything different from other Blizzard games.

Yeah, I installed b-net for Overwatch originally. So all I had to do was install the game and it worked first attempt.

It runs better on Manjaro than it does Windows. I tried it out on my Windows petition last night and it just maxes my 8GB of VRAM and causes stuttering all game. On Manjaro it hovers around 7.5 GB of VRAM and almost never stutters. I’m impressed.

Installing them is unnecessary unless you set the textures to ultra quality which I doubt you would do on the Steam Deck.
