maybe because of the gargoyle+bat-like appearence, which is used in quite a lot of games.

Possibly. but the name is so similar that it might be an issue. Calling it night hunter might be a copywright complaint waiting to happen

There is a sub class in destiny 2 which is called "nightstalker" which if you might have guessed is not just similar but is the exact same as from dota 2. So, no copyrights has been infringed with night hunter.

A sub class, and a design that almost mirrors him are two different things

You all are misunderstanding me here. Im not saying the author deserves a strike. Im warning him that it could possibly happen for reasons that I would prefer not to say because valve can be overly sensitive sometimes

lol wut no one is gonna sue someone over the name nightstalker, and besides, i doubt theve seen this post anyways.

yOUD BE SURPRISED HOW petty valve can be

You can't copyright the name nightstalker, considering it's been used in countless other films/games before dota. Also this skin really doesn't bare much resemblance to the dota character other than the fact that they both have wings...

Valve has punished people much more for much less. That and there is a lot of resemblence.

now there a lot of game characters with similarities like this are you going to say this copied all?

Thanks for just twisting my words, if you dont have anything constructive to add then go away

Thats not how copyright works. If its the same thing copied exactly then they can sue. But this isn't.
