           Summary: Overwatch stops taking input (even walking) when
                    switching to a CJK IME, Battle net takes all the input
                    tho (no fonts needed already included by blizzard))

Blizzard app able to take input, Overwatch does not. Even can't walk or move or
escape in Overwatch game client.

Positives - 

Blizzard has included all CJK fonts not just for the blizzard battle net client
but also for games, like Overwatch has its own CJK fonts. and there is no need
to install additional fonts as Overwatch and battle net are able to render all
CJK fonts on Linux except some on friend list inside the app. 

With Overwatch its able to render all CJK fonts as it has its own fonts and
works great on Linux for chinese japanese or korean and even other languages as
it doesn't need any system font.

Blizzard battle net app can get input from Ibus or Fcitx (I tested it with ibus
anthy) and also render it using its own CJK fonts which is great as we can see
in the first attachment also word suggestions and Kanji conversion in case of
japanese is working nicely as you can see on the markings.

Negatives / Bugs -

Unlike the app login screen or the app's social chat, we can't input any CJK
inside the game itself despite its able to render all CJK fonts. As when
switching to a CJK keyboard the game client stops taking input at all not even
walking running using abilities in game works. Which definitely should not be
the case.

It not only stops the chat input but also stops from doing any input at all
which can be a night mare mid game if I try to quickly switch for using it in
my Blizzard app.
