Huh, A_Spec doing dota now for TPL. He's been around for a long time, he used to cast FPS games (and probably other games too) for QuadV back before the dawn of streaming. He was always a good voice with poor knowledge, or that's how I remember him at least.
I can't sing and I can't dance, but still I know how to clap my hands.

I guess flamewheel wins the trivia for thinking of 2 more skills with duplicate names that I didn't think of: Voodoo and Return (somewhat). I was thinking of Blink and Silence.

I think that Icefrog changed the names and skills to make them look more diverse.. The whole thing about copyrights is a bit sketchy.. like Blink remains unchanged although it's pretty distinctly Blizzard-coined (to describe short range teleportation, not eyelid movement). Then the neutral creep names are unchanged.. Like Satyr Hellcaller, Satyr Soulstealer and Satyr Trickster.. If they wanted to prevent copyright infringement, they kinda did a crappy job at it.

Mortred has b for Phantom Strike :D Probably because the original ability was Magina's Blink, but still.

It used to be blink strike, like 4 heroes shared exactly the same ability. Now they're all different but the hotkeys stayed

4? I can only think of 3: CK PA SA.

What's interesting is how they used to be identical but as time went on Icefrog changed them a little to differentiate them. Now CK pulls them to a random point between him and the target and can no longer do it to enemies, mortred now gets an attack speed bonus when she blinks to a target, while riki blinks behind the target and automatically gets a backstab.

The same was done with the stun that Vengeful spirit has now. Skeleton king and sven used to have identical stuns. Now Skeleton king's stun applies a dot and a slow as well, while Sven's stun is now AoE but has a much longer cooldown.


So all these skills used to be the same? I guess its hard to make a point and click stun different. Also SK certainly got the short stick when it comes to animation & sound effect. Sven & VS stuns are so good, but SK stun just kinda... lands.

SK is throwing a freaking fire skull in your face, how is that not awesome =)

Apple doesn't own the rights to the name iPhone. They license the name. The iPhone was released years before Apple had a phone.

On Impale: it isn't copyrighted. But Warcraft 3 is. If Valve copy sufficient naming from Warcraft 3 it will be taken as Copyright Infringement, so they have to be careful how much they copy.
Eagerly awaiting Techies.

worse teams?

they lost Na'vi (big loss) MTW (no longer exists), MOUZ (Meh) Darer (benefit to have lost) M5 (same) Infused (Same) Monkeybusiness (Same) Next.KZ (Meh)

gaind AL (benefit) DIgnitas (Benefit) Empire( meh) Quantic (benefit) Shakira (meh) SE (meh)

They have a much better lineup now, they just missing Na'vi which is a big blow. but overall much more skilled league.

Could it be that you haven't followed the scene for a while or are you just clueless? I mean you didn't even realize that Infused and SE are the same team.

Both m5 and empire are currently easily the best teams with navi, they also lost EG.
