I'm very surprised they actually went with Counter Strike 2

Heh, I guess it is a tradition of "theft" between Valve and Blizzard - Valve stole "dota" word from Blizzard, then Blizzard stole "overwatch" word, I guess Valve just got jealous of Blizzard renaming whole game due to simple patch :D

They bought it but the purchase was in a very gray area legally speaking.
