StarCraft Online next?

Nope, not working on anything called Starcraft Online. I like how he worded that. You will notice he did not say they were not working on a Starcraft MMO. They just are not working on a game called Starcraft Online, which is absolutely not what they would call the SC MMO, anyway.

He didn't even deny that. He denied that the had "announced plans" for a game called StarCraft Online.

I would hope that this next new MMO would be just that, NEW. I don't want to see a StarCraft Online or any online MMO dealing with an existing Blizz product. Something fresh and NEW would be great.

Key words "We haven't announced plans for" and " called Starcraft Online". Personally i see this as nothing more than carefully crafted PR speak designed to keep us in the dark, possibly guard the truth, and keep us making threads like this one. I also think that "World of Starcraft" would be a much cooler and possibly more likely name for the MMO. Plus, whose to say that Blizz hasn't decided to revive the legendary Diablo name? I would be first in line for "Diablo Online". But the most important point i must make is this: regardless of theme, Blizz have the gargantuan advantage of having fathered the most successfull MMORPG of all time, and having "THE" best talent in the industry (opinion), so even if it's "Hello Fucking Kitty and the curse of Pokemon" i'm going to buy it on day one.

My money is currently on "Diablo Online". When Blizzard first posted job openings for this "Next Gen MMO", they referenced Diablo (usually a line stating something like "Blizzard Entertainment, creators of Diablo and Diablo II...") and postings for StarCraft II and WoW reference the respective games. Since then, they no longer reference any games in this manner.

I could be wrong, and it could be StarCraft Online, but at least it is some food for thought.
