During the last months, Blizzard has tried to obtain the DotA brand. Their dispute was against Valve, the company that is currently developing DotA 2.
The final decision was that Blizzard will keep their “DotA” name for the non-commercial DotA map that is developed by Icefrog (Warcraft 3), while Valve will keep their brand for DotA 2.
Those who follow Blizzard’s news are familiar with the fact that they are developing their own MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) video game. Their new game will be named “Blizzard AllStars” and will feature most of the well known characters from the Blizzard’s games, Starcraft, Diablo and the Warcraft universe.
After a few hours since DotA 6.74b, there is a new version that is correcting just a single bug.
“Fixed Flamebreak not functioning properly with creeps”.
This fix comes after Icefrog has changed these two features: “Flamebreak not interrupting channeling” and “Fixed Flamebreak affecting Magic Immune units”.

The third version of DotA 6.73 was released a few minutes ago, after the first map that was released before Christmas, followed a few days later by the 6.73b that fixed a few bugs and removed the Santa Pudge skin.
Since the winter holidays are over, the Christmas and the holiday graphic elements have been removed from the new map. A few technical optimizations have been made but the map file still has around 7 – 8 megabytes.
Regarding the fixes, there are 14 fixes for the 6.73c map, some regarding heroes and some regarding the new items that were introduced in 6.73.
