Can multiple battle.net account have the same email address?

My friend is giving me his account but I already have one, and I know you can't merge non WOW games. Can I change his email address to the same one as mine?

Best Answer

No. Think about it. Since you have to use an email address to log in, how would the login server ever know what account to log you into?

You'll just need to create a new email address. Also, from Blizzard's Terms of Service:
