Sheeptag rights?

Hello, I was curious on who has the sheep tag rights? Does
Blizzard own the game concept of how the game is played and made
via Copyright? If someone made a remake like the last post and
made money off it could he get sued?

There have been numerous games that started on Warcraft 3 as a
custom mod, and then branched to their own standalone
Biggest Examples:
Dota 2:
HTML http://store.steampowered.com/app/570/
Legion TD 2:
HTML http://beta.legiontd2.com/
Now Blizzard did sue Dota 2 ages ago over the name 'Dota' saying
it was associated with the Blizzard brand, but Blizzard lost the
case:

In short so long as you are not using or blatantly ripping
Blizzard assets you should be in the clear, as Blizzard can not
own a genre.
