Not sure how someone interpret it to making an official dota by themselves.

[Proxymate]

Can Icefrog or anybody else than Blizzard copyright DotA? I mean DotA has like, barely any original content.

[Sadhe]

Nobody can copyright DotA.

[PoopyDesires]

It is just blizzard trying to attract all the WC3 custom map kiddies to buy their game and then buy the custom maps. Nothing more

Yeah only kiddies plays custom games or even games based on mods.

If icefrog was allright with S2 making a dota like game, why wouldn't he agree on something similar from blizzard?

blizzard ahs all right from every product that was made with their map editor, something like that xP

How do you play dota without heroes or items?

Sounds like the most balanced dota game ever

You should atleast read up on what they've talked about with SC2s map editor before you try to be funny.

Yeah I should but I won't. I already paid for this greater game, why pay $49.99 for another Dota game...(now I know how people who don't want to pay for HoN feel )

[Hi]

Well SC2 Dota > HoN

l8r HoN.

j/k. PRetty cool though

not like icefrog could stop anyone from making a dota like game

[[DcvN]JBKnutsen]

SC2 DotA might beat HoN, at least in popularity. I'm going to purchase both HoN and SC2. But I won't buy SC2 for custom maps, I'll buy it because SC2 will most likely be one of the best games ever made.

[Sw4n]

did you really think there wouldnt be a dota for sc2?

[[Slag]t9sniper]

You guys don't know blizzard. If they show something, it means they're doing it. Plus the list is a mix from classic blizzard-made, epic fan-made and unknown custom maps. Sure it's an example, but blizzard has always had the habit of revealing stuff like that.

ORLLY!! what about star craft ghost that they kept showing off then poof disappeared.

Icefrog doesn't have to "be alright" with anyone, seeing as he doesn't own anything. Blizzard owns all the copyrights to all of DotA. S2 asked Icefrog just to be on good terms. What do you think would happen if Blizzard just swooped in and took over DotA under Icefrog's nose, all of his followers would be outraged.

Oh, no! His 100 or so Internet nerd friends would be angry!

The PIcture where you read Dota Allstars and ElementTD is the new BattleNet 2.0 INterface kids.

it only shows a combination of mods from the games which are listed in the battlenet.

im sorry to say, but no Dota for SC2.


HON > All
RIP Dota

dota depends a lot on the mechanics of animations, if sc2 is smoother in terms of unit attack animations (eliminating the need for animation cancelling) etc., a lot of the core gameplay of dota will be lost. Dota might feel way different in sc2, but anyways I have high hopes for it.

[[Slag]t9sniper]

Well considering ICEfrog won't have anything to do with a sc2 dota then i don't think it will end up doing that well.

(i say he won't have time to do that because hes working with valve on something supposedly)

[WaRDeN]

there's a 100% chance whatever icefrog comes out with will be copied to a sc2 map if it's anything based on an rts-type platform
