Lol what does blizzard have to do with dota. It was a wc3 mod. Free mod. It wasnt a blizzard asset, they paid or gained no money from it, neither did the guy
Unless dota 1 was played competitively for money and i just didnt know that
the character they are suing garry for is the g-man. who is owned by valve. and created by valve. the likeness for skibidi toilet IS the g-man, and in turn tons of other content on the steam workshop bc the game is about creating ur own content n stuff. like
THIS is one of the most commonly associated images with garrys mod.

Blizzard sued not to trademark it themselves, but to make sure that Valve couldn’t get the trademark and then enforce it against them for the WC3 mod. In the settlement, Valve agreed to not take any action against DOTA WC3 mods.

probably like 75% TTT if i had to guess
at multiple points in the past i helped friends run TTT servers, one of which was actually moderately popular at its prime
definitely some stupidity in various RP servers and misc things like jailbreak/murder/deathrun
also a decent bit of gmod tower when that existed but i dont actually know how much. rip the og
