Welcome to 2026! The age old question remains; how are you running Battle.net on Steam OS in Steam Deck?

I had an itch to try out the new class in D2. So I fired up the old Battle.net install that I previously had running through Lutris when D4’s expansion came out. It’s been a while, and something obviously changed with the Battle net launcher that it was broken in Lutris. I had to uninstall and reinstall numerous times through Lutris until it finally took properly.

Curious if lately others are simply installing it and running via Proton as a non-steam game that I can sidestep the Lutris process?

I saw there was NonSteamLaunchers via Decky Loader, but I couldn’t figure out how to get it installed and it wasn’t showing up in the plugin store when I searched for it. It was late so I didn’t have enough time to dig further there. The Bible quotes also seemed weird in the git, but whatever, if it works I’d be willing to try.

    I’m currently using Faugus. It has a quick easy installer. My only gripe is that it loads really slow for me and I had to end up turning off hardware acceleration because the launcher lagged so bad.

    I tried to install through lutris but the script kept bugging out and forcing me to abort and delete all the files. Not sure what’s up with that.
