then quit, for once blizzard is doing the right thing.
valve and much less icefrog trying to claim fame for DotA when the best any of them did was maintain it after, Guinsoo left to make LoL , is enormously arrogant and plain wrong.
Valve doesn't own DotA they never worked on it, they should not be able to trademark it and call their game DotA 2.

the only person who could ever claim to make a "DotA 2" is Eul the person who originally made DotA back in WC3: reign of chaos.

Nope, you're still wrong. Although it is Defense of the Ancients 2.. that is NOT the name of it. The name is Dota 2.

To prevent confusion over capitalization, I'm just going to write Dota for the rest of the article. According to Valve's senior project manager Erik Johnson, "When people talk about DotA they say Dota. It's kind of a word, at this point. For us it's just a word, or a brand name."

Anyone that thinks Blizzard is doing the right thing, or hopes that Blizzard wins is sadly just misinformed. The only reason Blizzard is fighting this is because they're trying to destroy a game that will be successful regardless. DotA is the main reason people still even play/buy RoC/TFT, and they'll do anything to disrupt Valve's already successful game (even if it's in beta). Blizzard never had anything to do with DotA. They even went as far as to trashtalk DotA at one of the previous Blizzcons. Valve has IceFrog, who is the main reason DotA got so big and popular, and Euls the original creator, both on their team. It's just so obvious that a game that Blizzard never openly cared about or mentioned much (besides the negative) is suddenly "the community's property" and "must be protected". Blizzard is extremely petty. If they can't win, they don't want anyone else to.

Valve is about to give Blizzard a "five across the eyes" treatment. And it is about time because they have gotten far too big for their own good, and their greed is definitely showing now.
