Blizzard and Valve settle “DOTA” trademark dispute

When Valve announced that they were going to release DOTA 2, it seems that Blizzard weren't too pleased about Valve using the DOTA name. They claimed that Valve did not have the rights to the DOTA name which eventually led to a lawsuit. So who emerged the victor. The good news is that apparently both sides have decided to settle their differences and have come to a mutual agreement in which Valve will have the rights to the DOTA trademark, while Blizzard will instead call their own version of DOTA as "Blizzard All-Stars".
