This is less about gaming and more about game companies; we try to focus on solving gaming problems that other people face, rather than answer trivia on the origins of each game/game studio. Please read the FAQ for examples of what sort of questions are on/off-topic here. – Mana♦ Mar 25 '12 at 22:03
the other guy is wrong, the story is in an interview with brandon beck somewhere on youtube. (talking about Alex Cao) – Daniel Redford Mar 25 '12 at 22:04

They originated from DOTA from warcraft. They wanted to allow more people to view the game on how they wanted it to be designed as DOTA is player made

Do you have a source on this? – GnomeSlice Mar 25 '12 at 22:02
@GnomeSlice Guinsoo, one of the leading developers, was the former designer of DotA. One of the other big names, Pendragon, ran the DotA community forums for a long time. – Decency Mar 26 '12 at 6:49
