Metzen called the face of the Studio, he wrote the script for cult games Warcraft, Diablo and StarCraft and, in fact, is the Creator of the universes of these projects. He also gave his voice to some characters and units from these series.

“Thank you all for letting me be a special part of your community, one of you. We have been through countless adventures, and I’ve always been impressed by your passion to our games, as well as your commitment to each other. Thank you for all of the conference BlizzCon, hugs, smiles, handshakes and stories that occurred over many years. You never know how much you all touched my heart and inspired me to surrender completely to this work,” wrote Chris Metzen.
