I guess they're giving up on convincing people to download their launcher.

Will it keep blocking Linux / Steam Deck users from playing, though?

Battle.net works pretty well in Linux at the moment.

What are you having issues running on Steam Deck? I got the Blizzard launcher working and have played OW1 and 2 successfully

I was under the understanding that Overwatch 2 had an anticheat that prevented Linux players from playing.

Not to my understanding. I was able to get it working just fine once Proton had a patch for it. There are a few guides out on YouTube, it's not a terribly difficult process! Go 4 it :)
