I don't think, that there's an DirectX for linux.

There are often problems with gaming and wine.

i think "work" is the best effect you can get

Hello,

the wine application database page for Warcraft Frozen throne is here:
http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=3126

Apparently It is working very well.

What graphic card do you have ?

Please run this command in a terminal and report the output here:
glxinfo | head -5
