Hey, you can install Battle.net on your Steam Deck via Lutris or Bottles. Just install one of those through SteamOS's desktop mode, then use them to set up Battle.net. Enjoy your Blizzard games!

Just install Lutris on your Steam Deck and then through Lutris, get Battle.net. It's straightforward and Lutris does a good job at managing these kinds of installs.

First off, you'll want to boot your Steam Deck into desktop mode. Once there, install the Discover Software Center if it isn't already. Search for 'Proton' and install it to ensure compatibility. After that, install 'Lutris' via Discover Software Center. Open Lutris, search for Battle.net, and install it. Proton helps Battle.net run smooth on the Linux-based SteamOS. Enjoy your Blizzard games!

Honestly, while you can install Battle.net on the Steam Deck, don't expect a perfect experience. Not all games play nice with Proton and Lutris.

As someone who's done it, make sure your Steam Deck's updated before anything else. Helps avoid a bunch of issues with Proton and Lutris. Then, just follow the usual steps to install Battle.net through Lutris. Worked like a charm for me!
