OK, DiabloCraft would be an absolutely stupendous idea and would cause all the Blizzard fanboys to piss their pants but they'd never follow through with it.  |

Typical Blizzard fanboy reaction. :\
Besides, they would only announce anything new at BlizzCon if you use logic.  And "new" likely only means "WoW Expansion". |

Well, Blizzard is really good at hyping their fans. And while the re-design makes it look nicer, how many does care? |

Welcome to Battle.net
Blaze on October 6, 2005
Welcome to the redesigned Battle.net website, Blizzard’s tournament portal for all Battle.net-enabled titles. The objective of the site is to cover all existing and future Blizzard games supported by the Battle.net online gaming service. Read the introduction to the Battle.net gaming service to check out the features of available to you. Here is a rundown on just a few of the many new features on Battle.net:
Warcraft III: Season Three
The third Warcraft III Ladder Season is underway. Visit the Season 3 website to view all Season 3 related news, schedule, brackets, prizes, FAQs, and rules.
Mod Support Website
We are proud to unveil the Blizzard Mod Support Website, the official resource for all map and add-on makers. This site was designed to give proper credit to talented map makers and to support the mod community. Among the many things we have planned for this section include:
"Spotlight maps" that show outstanding creativity, technical ability, and fun gameplay will be featured on the site regularly.
A resources page providing assets (such as icons) and tools helpful to the aspiring modder. This page will also feature tutorials from the community and Designer Journals straight from the desks of Blizzard developers.
The Blizzard Map Vault, an archive of all Spotlight Maps, official bonus maps, and contest winning maps.
Helpful links to great websites in the mod-making community. You can access this section by clicking Maps & Mods near the top of the main page.
Tournaments
One of the main goals of the site is to give exposure to the tournament scene relating to Blizzard games. The Battle.net tournaments section features a concise summary of major tournament events including the BlizzCon Invitational tournament to take place at Blizzard’s inaugural game convention this year. Tournament reports will be featured here as well. You can access this section by clicking the tournaments panel on the left side.
Thank you for visiting Battle.net. We hope you enjoy the redesigned site, with its new features and easier navigation.

There is no Arthas guys. You're probably thinking of the undead pic.
BUT!
Check the page source now, the image is suddenly gone and there's an "O RLY?" bird embedded in the source.
Drag your mouse across the screen and you'll highlight the bird. Or just ctrl+a
I think someone hacked the site, lol. |

I got Arthas .999 on my third view... o.o. But, diablo is ownage. It's fun, and satisfyingly gory. |

I decompiled the flash and all it does is load a random image of these 7:
splash_orc.jpg
splash_zerg.jpg
splash_terran.jpg
splash_undead.jpg
splash_ne.jpg
splash_diablo.jpg
splash_9.jpg
These images are in the swf file:
image1.png
image2.png
image3.png
The full script for the swf file is:
// Action script...
// [Action in Frame 1]
_global.myrandom = random(100);
// [Action in Frame 2]
if (myrandom <= 20)
{
loadMovie("/images/splash_orc.jpg", "ourMovieClip");
}
else if (myrandom > 20 && myrandom <= 40)
{
loadMovie("/images/splash_zerg.jpg", "ourMovieClip");
}
else if (myrandom > 40 && myrandom <= 60)
{
loadMovie("/images/splash_terran.jpg", "ourMovieClip");
}
else if (myrandom > 60 && myrandom <= 80)
{
loadMovie("/images/splash_undead.jpg", "ourMovieClip");
}
else if (myrandom > 80 && myrandom <= 95)
{
loadMovie("/images/splash_ne.jpg", "ourMovieClip");
}
else if (myrandom > 95 && myrandom <= 97)
{
loadMovie("/images/splash_diablo.jpg", "ourMovieClip");
}
else if (myrandom > 97 && myrandom <= 100)
{
loadMovie("/images/splash_9.jpg", "ourMovieClip");
} // end if
trace (myrandom);
// [Action in Frame 40]
stop ();
and button:
// Action script...
on (release)
{
getURL("http://www.battle.net/index2.shtml");
}
---
So it doesn't seem to contain any hidden stuff. There are 40 frames, and they're all identical except frame 2 cause it has the urls for the images. |

A new franchise could be interesting and possible since I doubt they would announce a game that mixes the franchises. Unless they announce a new game for each of the franchises.
Hopefully it will be good and not something that doesn't involve a new game. |

Some people are saying that the ladder will be reset, but it was reset a few weeks ago.
What I'm thinking, although this may be a longshout but still earth shattering, is the announcement of a new franchise. Maybe that would explain the globe thing with the combination of SC, WC, and Diablo. By the way, if you view the source you can see:
<!-- get ready -->
The site has been down all morning. I can't wait! Hopefully this wont be something lame.
But while we wait, enjoy this.

World of Warcraft tarcraft expansion.
Or it's something related to both franschises. Really neat to see it switching between the diffrent craft races when you refresh.
But Terran against the horde, come on that own.
...then, there is a diablo skull too so... uhm. That's like the major franschises of Blizzard.
Thing is, it's already been that date for six hours for the Europeans. So come on Blizzard! |

I want Starcraft 2, damnit! 
Wasn't / isn't there supposed to be a 4th race? A race of Zerg and Protoss combined-ness. At least from what I remember from that secret level on BW.  |

That rocks. I got a .999_=1 on both the lich and diablo. Also, be careful when madly refreshing to get an Arthas, hes the icy evil one, so you may mistake him for the Lich. |

Ok, me and Dei* have accomplished that you can get an Orc, Night Elve, Lich, Zergling, Terrain, and Diablo. Diablo is REALLY hard to get. REALLY freaking hard. Also, there is like a circle around the 7 on each one, AND it is on their eye, ANNND the circle has a World texture...And the best of all, 1 outa like a ALOT of times you can get a .999_=1 instead of a 10.7.05
I hope this is like, Warcraft 4, Diablo 3, and Starcraft 2!!!!
EDIT: oh and if anyone wants a challenge, try and get Arthas... |

I would shit myself if they announced Diabo III. D<
I think it may be a combination of Starcraft Ghost and the WoW xp. |
