Interesting tidbit, the LoL website does not mention the DOTA acronym even once. According to Google, the acronym only appears on the forums, on user posts - and from the first dozen results page or so, is almost always used to directly mention the specific games named DOTA, DOTA 2, and Blizzard DOTA, instead of being used as a generic tag or the genre name. So, it seems the LoL developers and community - or, at least, the players that post on it's forums - aren't using the DOTA name in any way that could suggest it's a description for the genre.
