i can choose between some models so i thaught which one is best to play some heartstone, d2 and d3 on it?

my work offers these ones:

- 2,7GHz 8GB RAM, 256GB-SSD Apple Macbook Pro retina 13,3''

- Apple MacBook Air 13,3“, 1.8GHz, 8 GB RAM, 256 GB SSD

i think air is beter for travel but pro better for games?

I can't find a 2016 model with 2.7Ghz without it being a 15".
Are you sure it's not the 2015 model then? https://www.apple.com/au/shop/product/FF839X/A/refurbished-133-inch-macbook-pro-27ghz-dual-core-intel-i5-with-retina-display

8GB RAM is more than enough!
And all 3 games does support mac OSX no reason to run boot camp.

If it was bought in 2016 it could easily be from 2015. So I believe it is.
It has a Iris 6100 which can run diablo 3 1366x768 mid-high settings with an average of 50fps.
