December 9, 2010
Edit
Almost
everybody knows Icefrog, the one who created Defense of the Ancient popularly
called DOTA that was first running in the World of Warcraft created by Blizzard
Entertainment. I was shock when I have read the blog about the revelation of Icefrog identify by an allegedly a co-employee or co-team in Valve Games

According to the author the real name of Icefrog was Abdul Ishmael, an Arab and he added also
that Icefrog was a liar and hard to work with person. Is this true?
On the
middle of his confession the guy pointed out some important information
connecting Icefrog to several game developing companies.
According to
him, Icefrog first work to Riot games (Burger King), then quit transferred to S2 games (Fatburger) and now Icefrog join with Valve games(Wendy) to produced DOTA2.
So what’s
the issue about it? For me you just can simply think that valve conspired with
Icefrog works that he was stealing some trade secrets from different companies.
I don't know what's the motive of this anonymous guy who speak against icefrog.Jealous?lol..
In my own view ,I wonder
before how S2 Games quickly produced the
DOTA replica, "Hereos of Newerth". Interesting right? Does Icefrog give the game
copy to S2 Games or He was one of the HON team working to it.
Well, you
cannot blame Icefrog if he wants to monetize his invention because making a
good game such DOTA requires much skills and resources. Remember, Icefrog is
not getting revenue from the Maps he created for DOTA while running in Warcraft
due to Blizzard TOS.
If you could
observe Icefrog introduce some different platforms that DOTA could run to start
fleeing from World of War Craft. Icefrog Dota 2 project will run on Valve not
in Blizzard. Does Blizzard TOS could stop Icefrog to monetize his maps since he
is now at VALVE? I don’t know.
If I am
Icefrog maybe I’ll do same thing to support my living and that’s we call game but
I wouldn’t act as hostile to my co-team. Look now somebody named him (Icefrog)
a terrorist.
I have
emailed Icefrog to ask if all this accusation is true but no response.
