Undead Menu Background

Just a slight question/suggestion - but why is the undead menu background a picture of a crypt fiend with egg sacks around? This looks more like a Zerg background than undead. It’s irked me enough to ask this question, so I assume others may have found it odd too.

A) The Undead Background should be something more…undead. Why not a skeleton in a graveyard? Ghouls feasting on a corpse? A Lich hanging around?
B) Crypt Fiend’s are undead, right? Then why are there eggs? Can dead things have babies? Do we ever see a Crypt Fiend producing eggs? Again - Undead != Zerg…
C) I have wasted more time than I wanted to typing this out so I think A and B points are good enough.

The answer to your question why we dont have Kel Thuzad like we are suppose to is because of China. China doesnt like skeletons, so Blizzard gives you the Crypt fiend.

Wait…really? China doesn’t like bones…the stuff we’re all made of?

OK, even if that is true, and I have to admit it’s probably the most plausible thing I’ve heard, why couldn’t they just do an undead Death Knight then? Or a graveyard with ghosts? Something more undead…y

I am personally against making any middle ground. Kel Thuzad was in the original, and he should be in the Reforged one and in 3d moving motion not this 2d crap. I envy the versions of ourselves in a parallel universe where Blizzard did a proper remaster not this junk that we got here.
