Pretty big news but does it seem like Blizzard has missed the boat on this?

The MOBA market is saturated with content. Different games that target different audiences and different IPs. The biggest have clear revenue streams and are profitable (DOTA2 is profitable, right?).

I don't know about saturated. There is Dota2 and LoL, with a sprinkle of HoN. I don't think you should underestimate the pull Blizzard has and the desire for Blizzard fans to play Dota2/LoL but as Raynor/Kerrigan/Arthas/etc.

they would have success if they made it back when they announced it years ago, now is just a waste of time, no one wants another LoL/Dota2/HoN clone

unless they add something completely revolutionary, but blizzard is incapable of doing that anymore

That's true. But let's not underestimate the shining star of Blizzard's past. They can still attract a lot of people with their history and marketing capabilities. If they manage to steal the best parts from the other developers and don't fuck it all up with their ridiculously bad E-Sports approach like WCS, this might still get a decent player base.
