Paint is more like a programming language then the game itself. The artist would be blizzard, and KeSPA would be some gallery that charges money for the public to see the painting. If I create the Mona Lisa. I then allow an art gallery to display it at their gallery for 3 years, for a nominal fee. After the 3 years, the Mona Lisa is supposed to come back to me possession, but the Art Gallery won't give it back to me. Who's painting is it? + Show Spoiler + Amazingly, it is mine. | ||

The paint maker has a utility patent on his paint, whereas Blizzard also has a copyright (and that's where it derives the authority to license the transmitting and broadcasting of its product). It's not nearly as much about that as it is about the original paint allowing painters to make beautiful things with it, and thinking that making better paint will make better paintings and trying to enforce it to give you the credit. | ||

That's part of it, but I was talking about the withdrawal of the painting made with original paint and licensing the new painter. Basically the Kespa/Gom situation. The whole SC2 thing is all entangled in this whole thing too though. | ||

The point is made that Blizzard is not fostering the eSports culture. | ||
