It looks like it’s either a Kubuntu issue, or something has gone wrong on your end. I read your post so just tried installing it on Mint, and I had no problems.
I checked the Battle.net site first, but they only had Windows or mobile downloads, so I tried installing Lutris. I haven’t used Lutris yet, so I found a guide.
I searched the Lutris site for Starcraft II, and clicked the install button, then told my browser that Lutris could open the link. Lutris asked if it could install the Battle.net program, so I said yes and followed the instructions.
Once Battle.net was installed, I opened it, logged in, and searched for Starcraft II. I found the free version, and told it to install.
Once the download finished, I started the game, set up my character, and played the tutorial.
Other than downloading Battle.net through Lutris, the installation was the same as it would be on Windows
