I agree, but as far as I know a big part of the reason because BW is so popular is because of BUGS!!! Because of bugs that Blizzard forgot to fix. The air unit stack bug and patrol bug are a big reason for it's high skill ceiling and random scarabs ofc

ALL OF THIS WAS STILL RANDOM AND UNINTENDED. Blizzard wasn't like maybe a bunch of koreans will make a rich scene with popular personalities around this game in a few years.
the reason why WoW isn't an esport is because of its sub par game balance unlike games such as starcraft LoL and HoN.
Unbalanced to an extent, but the main problem is that even if Arena, Battlegrounds, and World PvP became an E-sport, it's not very appealing to watch. WoW isn't too visual on what is going on besides big AoE's.
There is almost no way a spectator would be able to tell what was going on, most melee attacks don't looke very different from one another, so all you can see is a warrior spinning or swinging, a bear either swings with one paw or stands up and hits with both. Kitty is much the same. So to truly understand whats going on would require a complete retooling.
Boring to watch, shitty balance.

This, Ever Since Arena Blizzard has done damn all to balance classes even half decently. Constantly Buffing certain classes while others get left in the dust.
Not only that, they seem to do it intentionally, every patch you see a class get buffed severely and one nerfed to the ground, there's this status quo feeling with every patch, as if one spec/class must be on top for a season and another on the bottom at all times, like a perfect imbalance system.
You cannot create an Esport when you have one class that is significantly more powerful than all the others, and one where it is a joke to bring them at all. Until Blizzard realizes this, they will not get arena back into the esport bracket any time soon.

eSports are exclusive skill based;
WoW is not skill based, at least not exclusively;
Therfor WoW is not an eSport.
The problem is having an eSport of the PvP-part of a game which has both PvE and PvP. It causes balancing issues.
Blizzard has realized long ago that their shot at making WoW a good PvP game was over. They blundered through the E-sport process and now are just content to suck away your money for an old ass engine on a game well behind its prime. When Arenanet releases the spectator patch after release of GW2, thats going to be the esport you're looking for IMO. Blizzard and all their fans should realize that WoW is no longer relevant when it comes to PvP and they're not going to do anything to help it.
arena isn't really balanced anyway, it's not like sc2 where everything is around balance.
