Shall we start the timer until the studio gets closed? That seems to be the regular pattern these days.

I think Blizzard is one of the more profitable studios under Microsoft so I very much doubt it

Not really, Blizzard has been filling up with unions for years now. Microsoft now has far and away the most union employees of any game company
