Blizzard needs to seriously update the SC2 Battlenet store.

SC2 can make plenty of new cashflow, but isn't because all the stuff that is in the ingame Collection isn't also on the SC2 Battlenet store for easy direct selling.


> The SC2 Battlenet store skin bundles do not go on sale during Battlenet sales.

Far more people would purchase the skin bundles if they also went on sale during the Battlenet sales.

They are the highest priced SC2 items on the Battlenet store for SC2 along with the Campaign Collection and Deluxe Campaign Collection, both of which go on sale every time a Battlenet sale happens.

> The SC2 Battlenet store skin bundles need to have price standardization and also a price reduction.

Terran, Zerg, and Protoss skin bundles all have wildly different costs.

Terran skin bundles(unit and structure) cost:

  • $39.84

Zerg skin bundles(unit and structure) cost:

  • $42.33

Protoss skin bundles(unit and structure) cost:

  • $44.82

This makes no sense at all. All the SC2 skin bundles should have the same standard price of $39.84.

With that said, the pricing of the SC2 skin bundles should be dropped by $10-15.

They came out years ago and all the whales/die hard fans that purchased them only did so when SC2 was receiving active monetization content development, had an active Blizzard involved/funded Esports tournament scene, and was getting new content with full dev team support.

> The SC2 Battlenet store is missing SC2 announcers

  • Vorazun
  • Pomf & Thud
  • Alex007
  • Day[9]
  • Park
  • Nathanias

All of these announcers are not available on the Battlenet store for SC2 with the other SC2 announcers.

As a result, the sales for these specific SC2 announcers is lower than all the ones that are in the SC2 Battlenet store.
