Actually, Valve can get sued pretty nicely by the anime studio that made Slayers.
LINA INVERSE, anyone?
Also, if they continue to use the same model for Phantom Lancer, Square Enix can sue for ripping off of Kimahri's model.
Also: WotC can sue for the unauthorized use of Morphling (M:tG Urza's Saga) for profit.
So can Blizzard for generally ripping off of their IP. After all, I believe whenever you made a custom map, that map became IP of Blizzard Entertainment.
Frankly, I hope Valve gets taken to the cleaners for this.
