Being a body in the online matchmaking pool adds value to the next player who has a greater incentive to give Blizzard more money because they played with you. Just logging in to play the game helps Blizzard, not to mention the positive word of mouth you spread afterward. That said, OP clearly has an itch to play this game that isn’t going to go away. There are games I won’t touch because they do things that offend me, and I’m not tempted to play them when there’s so much else out there. StarCraft II is one of them, even though it had been one of my favorite games in the past and there’s nothing else quite like it, for what that’s worth.
