Sounds to me that they needed to move people from Starcraft team to making mobile version of Starcraft for the Chinese market. They also recognize, that Starcraft is such a phenomena that marketing dollars to get equivalent exposure any other way is going to be a lot more expensive than keeping a small team which keeps it alive.

Have they made hints of making a mobile version of sc? Are there any similar style games on mobile at the moment? It would seem pretty difficult to move this kind of game to mobile.
That's the Blizzcon 2018 Diablo Immortal reference... Shouldn't take it's literal interpretation as gospel. But overall direction of company seems to be making mobile games for Chinese market.
