You can absolutely play CSGO and it only takes a few clicks from the CS2 entry in steam. You still have community servers, which were always a big thing in CS.
You cannot play Overwatch 1 or old Warcraft 3 at all, doesn’t matter how many clicks you try.
Eh. If you count CSGO when there are no official servers I think you need to count WC3 unofficial servers as well. There are workarounds to playing old WC3 online, just not through battle.net.
Steam still connects you to custom servers, and Valve still allows you to download the server hosting software. The part that went offline- rather, moved to CS2, was the matchmaking client.
The workarounds to WC3 require you to leave Blizzard designed software to third party support. I don’t recall WC3 ever having matchmaking, but the server browser and hosted game list were taken completely.

The old Warcraft 3 is a stretch.
I don’t expect a game from 2002 to still have a official fully working multiplayer component.

So, not for lack of trying on Blizzard’s part.
