Line 10:
[[Valve|Valve Software]] had hired Icefrog (One of the game's original developers) and have been working on [http://www.gamespot.com/news/6281820.html a commercial sequel/remake of a sort called] [[Dota 2]].
Likewise Blizzard announced at Blizzcon 2010 their own version of DotA for Starcraft II, featuring characters from all their franchises. Due sometime in the near future.{{when}}
It also has [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXKd7uuehlw&feature=fvsr an awesome song about it].
Visit the DotA website [https://web.archive.org/web/20131031160555/http://www.playdota.com/ HERE].
It also has a [[Defense of the Ancients/Characters|character page]] (in progress).
Line 191:
** [[My Friends and Zoidberg|And]] [[Futurama|Zoidberg]]
*** No, really. He has a courier named after him.
* [[Sincerest Form of Flattery]]: The makers of [[League of Legends]] went so far as to [https://web.archive.org/web/20110717124817/http://www.leagueoflegends.com/learn/dota_and_lol list why they think their game is different] from (read: better than) this one.
** [[Heroes of Newerth]] is an even closer imitation; having copied most of the mechanics, items, and more than 30 of DotA's heroes. It slowly changed some things to differentiate a bit but it is still very similar overall. [https://web.archive.org/web/20111024052712/http://www.playdota.com/forums/3944/heroes-newerth/#post47254 DotA's current developer actually allowed S2 to do this].
* [[Skill Gate Characters]]: Gondar the Bounty Hunter and Rikimaru the Stealth Assassin both rely completely on their invisibility to be effective. Gondar's Wind Walk grants him no bonus movement speed, and if he's detected, it can't save him unlike other windwalks, while Rikimaru's is the reason he's more than just a decent semicarry with a silence. In lower level play efficient invisibility detection is completely unheard of. Moving just slightly up in general skill level renders these heroes both nearly useless.
Line 208:
* [[Teleport Spam]]: The Juggernaut's rendition of ''Omnislash'' acts this way.
** Tinker after he gots Boot of Travel
* [[Testosterone Poisoning]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20130304082554/http://www.scribd.com/doc/11590030/King-Leoric-the-Skeleton-King This] Skeleton King guide. (Warning: [[NSFW]] by a long shot!)
* [[Time Stands Still]]: Faceless Void's ultimate, ''Chronosphere''. Within the area of effect anyway.
** And for everyone but himself and whatever minions he may have picked up.
