* [[Abridged Arena Array]]/[[Adaptation Displacement]]: Many people play ''[[War CraftWarcraft|Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne]]'' [[Just Here for Godzilla|just for DotA.]] ''[[World of Warcraft]]'' notwithstanding.
** Also, this wasn't the very first ''DotA'' version ever made - it's just the most popular (and most frequently updated). As to comparing it with other versions of ''DotA''.
* [[Arrogant Kung Fu Guy]]: This is a MOBA.
Line 15:
* [[Game Breaker]]: Item pooling. Recently [[Nerf|nerfed]]. Also backdooring (no, not THAT backdooring) and cutting off your opponent's supply of creeps (the latter is debatable). The Fun Tavern (only available in versions where you can team up with and battle the AI) reveals that some heroes of past versions were even more broken.
** Backdooring was never a gamebreaker. People just didn't like it.
** A lot of items can be game breakers if you manage to get them early enough in the game before everyone else is buff enough to handle them; some particularly nasty examples are the Armlet of Mordiggian, Diffusal Blade, Guinsoo's Scythe of Vyse, and the newly buffed [[The Legend of Zelda: aA Link Toto T Hethe Past (Video Game)|Agahnim's Scepter]].
** And, historically, a number of heroes have been this, due to the honest mistake of being overpowered when they were introduced. This Troper can only remember the Moon Rider (whose [[Beam Spam]] has already been described) and the Sand King (who, come to think of it, can still stun you / slow you / shove his tail up your bum for the win, just not as quickly), but undoubtedly there have been others both before and since.
*** Also just recently, the Tauren Chieftain and the Batrider with Radiance... and a little before that, Kunkka.
