Really confused about Starcraft 2

So there's this blackfriday sale going on for WoL and HotS http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/blog/19966675?utm_content=external-sso&utm_medium=internal&utm_source=app-other#comments

I was wondering whether do i need both of these expansions to play multiplayer or can i just grab LotV on it's own?

Nope. All three are stand-alone.

No, LotV is standalone. However you need WoL to play HotS. (unless they changed that with the last patch)

So let's say if i only have HotS I can only play multiplayer with people with HotS and WoL or just HotS right?

Hmmm if i wanna get into multiplayer i shouldnt bother with WoL and HotS right?

yeah, they are going to slowly fade away completely as more players move over to lotv. wol should be pretty much a desert by now.

Do you think there'll be a christmas sale or something?

Hopefully, but since it just launched I'm not sure

Depends, if you're planning to spend a good amount of time with it, yes. It is a great game and an awesome multiplayer experience. However, if you're not interested in the campaign, of course you're not getting all you paid for. 40$ aren't that much, but if you're short on funds it may be worth it to wait a bit. I personally am waiting a while because right now I probably wouldn't have the time to play it as much as I'd like to, but I certainly plan to get it in the future.

Sounds just like me! Thanks for the clarification and your input
