Starcraft 2 no longer works

Blizzard has ended support for WinXP so the default install configurations is broken. I tried installing using a win7 bottle but the dependencies didn't install correctly.

Have you tried installing using an older version in a WindowsXP bottle, then once it's installed, going into the WineConfig and changing the bottle type to Windows 7?

Change the bottle to Windows 7 and install the WOW-Crossover version. This is how it works for me.
It sucks that Codeweaver only advertises it for WOW when it fixes most Blizzard games.
The version I am talking about can be found here Codeweaver download

Using the WOW Crossover works for me on SC2, it was very flaky before and would not log on. I just installed this version and all problems seem to be fixed.
