Yeah I am not even sure what it was tbh, I think it was their Hearthstone with a DotA theme

Or was it a dota autochess spinoff who knows

Don't quote me on these, but iirc, it was a Hearthstone and Magic competitor co-developed by Richard Garfield who is one of the two "inventors" of Magic. The game flopped hard, though, because the barrier of entry was too high by requiring an upfront purchase of the game in addition to booster packs which were outrageously expensive too. And the gameplay was also kinda bad.
