I had it installed a few years back & running fine, but haven't played for a while, so don't have it on Linux currently.
Just wondering if there are any game breaking bugs with the new updates before I download it. I don't have Wine installed currently, as I prefer buying natively supported titles, but switching into windows for 1 game is kind of annoying.

2. You have to go to wine Tab and configure Wine -> Libraries --> DLL Overrides and add these Libraries
api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0
api-ms-win-crt-stdio-l1-1-0
api-ms-win-crt-convert-l1-1-0
api-ms-win-crt-heap-l1-1-0
api-ms-win-crt-locale-l1-1-0
api-ms-win-crt-time-l1-1-0
(it took me 2 days to find a solution for that :'( )
Hopefully it will work for you as well ..
Have fun :D

I tried with POL, but kept getting stuck at 'connecting'. I ended up getting it working by installing wine 1.9.15 & winetricks- added vcrun2015 & away it went.
Performance isn't great, I get around 40fps with settings maxed out in 4k, which I could live with, the game is not really playable though, as once combat starts, fps drops to 15-20 & stutters very badly.
So far i've tried:
Changed the Config.wtf to use OpenGL & turned off a few effects, but its a little slower than dx9 & adds some odd flickering textures here & there.
Dropping resolution doesn't change performance.
Dropping all settings to 'low' gives me just under 60fps, but combat still drops it to 15-20. CPU & GPU utilisation is at around 25% in or out of combat. All 8 threads are active.
In windows I usually run with vsync on at 60fps with no stuttering, so I'll keep playing around with it to see if I can get it running better.

I'll see if I can write them all down when I get home :)
EDIT: Supposedly with the newest version of wine you only need corefonts and msvcp140.
Make sure you have lib32-libldap installed on your system or else battle.net goes sad!
EDIT2: I recommend using the DirectX renderer (can be chosen in-game) as it is far less glitchy than the opengl one.

I completely agree with you. If I pay a hundred dollars for HS I want to be free on whether I use free or proprietary operating system. I also bought first two expansions of the Starcraft 2 when I was on windows. I've been running linux for 2 years now and since Blizzard ignores users who don't like to be jailed in closed environment like Windows and choose to go away their response is that if you want to enjoy your bought content you also have to pay for the new windows versions when MS ends support for old ones. Their tactics is wrong and in this regard I only embrace Valve and their cross-platform efforts, I don't mind buying games, I just like to have freedom of choice on which OS I choose.
It is not "kind thing" from Blizzard to support their users who decide to swtich. It is their duty, since we all bought content from them :)
That's why I am never spending a penny on Blizzard's content again. I suggest the same thing to all linux gamers since the future will hold only problems with wine compatibility and their updates :)
