If they do a D2 Remastered (and I'm sure they will because it's such a low-investment way of making money), I would have to think they would do it on an updated server.
I can't see how these updates would really play into that outside of maybe encouraging a few more people to get interested in the game again before they announce the remastered edition.
Yes that's exactly what I'm saying saying they're doing the updates to re-engage interest in the game.
They did the exact same thing with Brood War a few months before Remastered was released with the 1.18 patches (first patches since 2009).
