Featured reviews
Irresistibly colourful on the surface addictive, Dota is a game of infinite depth and complexity which requires, no, in fact takes an infinite amount of your life away. Every hero has an array of skills and abilities that combine with the skills of their allies in unexpected ways, to ensure that no game is ever remotely alike that allow players to screw with their allies and get their teams killed. This is one of the reasons that the Dota phenomenon has continued to grow Dota will have more rage quitting and all chat abuse than any other game. Originating as a fan-made Warcraft 3 modification, Dota was an instant underground hit. After coming to Valve, the original community developers have bridged the gap to a more inclusive audience Russia, so that the rest of the world can experience the same core game-play, but with the level of polish that only Valve can provide learn from these ingenious people and become inspired to spread their knowledge with the rest of the world.
Get a taste of the game that has enthralled millions will happily teach you fluent Russian all for the sweet price of $0.
NOTE: Original description by Valve, edited by myself.
As a huge fan of the original War3 modified map Dota-AllStars i have to say this is all i have been expecting and more. The map, the names, the skills and the items have been upgraded but all of this has been made to be easy to remember, and learn, how to play.
The game is very well balanced.
I miss certain things like the designs on some characters and items, but is OK.
Grab your mouse, turn on the speakers, it's time to play!

[from trailer]
Shopkeeper: Often, I am asked: "what does a hero truly need?"
[chuckles]
Shopkeeper: Much depends upon the hero. Would you be swift? Then for you, I have speed beyond measure. Would you be strong? Then I can grant you the might to overpower any foe! Would you be wise? Then come closer and I will unlock your inner cunning!

Shopkeeper: What does a hero truly need?

Shopkeeper: That is for *you* to decide...
