Dusa won the game with basically Manta Style. Can't think of anything remotely as OP except Death Ward Riki.

Kinda bummed I didn't play Dota until Dota 2 came out. Then I look at this and remember that it's probably for the best

Also, 0/5, missed the opportunity to make the pun "A scroll down memory lane". /s

I never understood how dota became so angel arena'y in the early tft days. Like when I finally transitioned to all stars it was already not ridiculous and when I was playing roc dota I don't remember it being ridiculous either.

Angel Arena was dope though. I wish I could play this kind of stuff nowadays ...


Didn't that game have like 300 heroes or something stupid, and basically plagiarized every custom wc3 hero model ever?

Would also enjoy to play again of course :p


I also miss samurai doto:

Manta style use to be so rigged. You would be able to make several illusions of yourself.

I started playing dota around 5.9 ish (2009). So I wasn't that old school. But I remeber Lone Druid can blink when being attacked. and it doesnt feed 300 gold. You get a 20 min radiance its basically GG.

Blink dagger was so much stronger back in the day when it didn't go on cd when you got hit.

Also, you used to be able to give items to your teammates and have them still work. Me and my friends had this dumb strat where one of us would OD mid and everyone else would just farm mystic staves (staffs?) for him to make him massive.
