Wargaming.net files lawsuit against group of former employees
UPDATE: Wargaming won the lawsuit. Blitz Team will have to cease using WG intellectual propriety.
Wargaming.net has filed a lawsuit against Blitz Team, a Belarus mobile company founded by a former management at the World of Tanks developer.
Submitted to the US District Court in Los Angeles, California, the lawsuit seeks cancellation of Blitz Team’s trademark applications.
“Wargaming contends that defendants’ selection of the name Blitz was made deliberately, in bad faith, and for the sole purpose of taking unfair advantage of the reputation and goodwill of Wargaming’s well-known Blitz trademarks,” said the company in a statement.
Blitz Team was founded in April 2018 by a former Wargaming management team. Before that, they led the World of Tanks Blitz product group and were known internally as the “Blitz Team.”
According to Wargaming, the former management team received over $10 million in additional payments, which included a share of WOTB’s net revenue. The terms of their agreement stated that they were not to compete with Wargaming or solicit Wargaming employees for an set period of time after leaving the company,
The former management team left Wargaming in April 2018 after a year-long period of failed contract negotiations and founded Blitz Team, allegedly taking 30 employees with them.
“After the departures, Wargaming learned that the former management team had made plans to leave Wargaming and form a new video game company, before negotiations were completed, by no later than February 2018,” said the company’s legal counsel.
“Wargaming has also uncovered evidence that members of the Former Management Team began soliciting Wargaming’s employees to join the new video game company that became Blitz Team LLC while they were still employed by Wargaming.”
This is not the first time Wargaming has initiated legal proceedings against Blitz Team in December 2019. According to a blog post from Blitz Team, the World of Tanks developer attempted to sue its former employees for around $1,690,000, alleging they had unlawfully uploaded proprietary software — DAVA Framework — to open source software platform GitHub.

Big, protected, surprisingly mobile, and armed with powerful guns firing a special set of shells, the game’s first Japanese tank destroyers will immediately make you respect them. And when the four new tank destroyers enter the battle, no one will survive their onslaught. Learn about them now and prepare to research a new Tier X vehicle!
The top guns of the Japanese tank destroyers can fire two types of AP shells. The main AP shell for each new vehicle features high penetration and devastating damage. The improved AP shell has lower damage, but it can penetrate practically all enemies.
Tier VII. Chi-To SPG
Researched after the Chi-To for 43,400. Cost: 1,345,000.
Many enemy shells will simply bounce off this tank destroyer’s armor, especially if they’re fired from medium or long range. Considering its great armor, the mobility of the Chi-To SPG is inspiring. Its suspension, taken from a medium tank, has a max speed of 45 km/h, a high power-to-weight ratio, and decent maneuverability.
