Let's see if Valve gets Trademark for 'DOTA'. In my opinion it will be hard for Valve to pick up existing public domain material and trademarking it. DotA is the product developed by Euls, Guinsoo, IceFrog and by the help of community suggestions. Also, Valve has to make sure if the are putting content with Blizzard's Warcraft III Trademark on their DotA based game.
Things are getting really interesting in DotA Genre games, what about Heroes Of Newerth, League, Bloodline Champions, Demigod etc. Are they taking note?

Blizzard vs Valve vs RiotGames

Noob
Pff... I hope the wc3 dota will not be forgoten if this succes. :(
Excellent....its about time those LoL HoN retards realize the original is way better
Can't wait for this game
Why did Valve took IceFrog only? How about Euls and Guinsoo?
Better make it fast cause I can't Wait.
i hope icefrog doesnt change the heroes and items in valve dota.. rest is ok
Same as you, i hope no changes are made names/heroes/recips but better graphics and psihics
i hope the hero's template and others such as skill etc won't be changed.. or else we will have to start from the beginning again to familiarize ourselves with all those heroes...
@ 11:45
wtf wat about S2Games(HoN)
U no, that realy popular one that nearly everyone knows about rofl noob
@ 8:20
Yes because keeping things the same and never changing things is always so exciting. -_-
take that u freakin noob HoN guys...oOo..gud jobs icefrog&valve..support you guys..xD
fine just take ur time make Dota..
so other copy of dota can retard...
HON will dead soon. :lol:
BETTER DOTA GRAPHICS?
please change the graphics of dota and make it so cool.....
Get rid of it XD
Guys whatever comes it wont be free! and This would make the dota community parted and week! for now its either Bnet or Garena! after that it wud be sad to host a game in a room of few players and that also from various countires! current setup rocks! valve sux as its bad for the dotans!
This is just like parting a live happy family into many! And also that i wish new things dont get popular as they wud get each penny out of you as per gaming addiction! so thumbs down for VALVE pirating dota!
Sweet
WoooHoo!
hope DotA will not be forgotten (-_-)
dont get it but im excited :-\
27blood!
MONSTER KILL!!
GOD LIKE
WHAT ABOUT OUR NICE MODELS? From dota? :'(
If DotA goes steam many ppl are officially f**ked
Majority of the DOTA players are based in the Asian countries and very few people own legit Warcraft III. If Valve goes steam none will buy it.
IceFrog has said on PlayDota that DotA is the only thing he will develop for many years.
@ 7.30
hope it will be nice and better graphic
i hope it be the original DotA without the need of WC3, so it will have its own game, retaining its originality :D
'cause WC3 was released 10 years ago lol
pls dun let HON dominates dota..seriously dam hate those fuking pirated guys..support original DotA!!
plz ice frog dont make us pay to play it and stay u update it i beg u icefrog make it free 4 all dota is my life i never played good game like defense of the ancient i beg u icefrog make it intresting and free plz all fans of dota will cry if its not free... plz ice listen to the members

No more garena dota or even lan dota. well unless wwe buy it that is. but dota can from everyone! not only ice frog but the entire world. we plaayers benfit from what dota is today and we have the right to play it free. because without us there is no ice frog and without us dota is no more!!!!

how about half-life 2 episode 3?
dominating!!
It is high time DOTA is not free. So developer can use the money to finance better DOTA Game for future release.
Ok. Now if DotA would go LICSENSED then woudlnt it be free? cuz' my parents gave me HL2 and steam. it costed alot for them. So if DotA( my whole life game) would be needed to be bought and not free anymore then its as if he did'nt care for us? you know? DotA was famous because of us and DotA would'nt be what it is right now if it was'nt for us freaking addicted players. we have a right to make it free so we can continue living our life and one day make DotA greatest game of every human life.
gl to valve :)
mega kill :>
No maphacks for a while
Dota=Greatest game of all time?=D
no free dota...
this is just like when css source came out. everyone was like" HERP DERP 1.6 HURR DURR" and some idiots tried to make some shit called promod which was insanely hyped but failed epicly.
we allready have a new and improved dota, its called hon. ice and the other people were too slow to see the need of better matctmaking and graphics. yes all the kids care about graphics.
