"after a while". Agree. I think they are called "starter kits" for a reason :).

I have looked into their config today. Nothing very amazing, but indeed a better default experience. It's much simpler (compared to Spacemacs) which I think is more beginner friendly.
I doubt it but I imagine the Battle.net servers bursting on day 1 to 10 of the release, as so many people who grew up with this game would give it a play.
