Blizzard DotA:
Wage war with the most powerful heroes from Blizzard Entertainment’s game universes in this explosive new multiplayer game.
Blizzard's greatest heroes have been drawn from their respective universes to do battle on a chess-themed battleground. You control a hero and must level up, buy items, and work together with your teammates to defeat waves of units and ultimately destroy the opposing team's King Tower.
Blizzard DotA map for StarCraft 2 will be released in near future via Battle.net. It will be free for everyone who owns a copy of StarCraft 2. Till now, We can predict that Blizzard's DotA is more likely to be a sci-fi oriented DotA. Blizzard is updating StarCraft 2 engine, map editor and continuously adding features so it can support the Blizzard DotA.
Blizzard has not announced any official StarCraft 2 DotA release date yet but it is expected be released in near future. Also, Valve is coming up with DotA 2 in 2011. Do you think that Blizzard DotA will be good enough to beat DotA2? Share your reviews via comments!

«Oldest ‹Older 1 – 200 of 291 Newer› Newest»Fist Blood!!
awesome news
This battle starts,
Valve vs Blizzard.
S2games, RiotGames are now the spectators xD
i dont like the interface of Starcraft 2 at all.. Blizzard DotA on SCI-FI look will be a big fail..
Valve Dota 2 will be much better
Valve will probably sue Blizzard for using DOTA name as they acquired trademark.
ImBa!!.. Another Game to PlAy by BliZZarD..
Go More PowEr!!.. DOta ruLez...
Blizzard is making a huge mistake porting DOTA to StarCraft 2, it belongs to Warcraft 3 and it should remain there. if Blizzard DotA comes it'll kill the point of playing Starcraft 2.
i really dont care if it's free or paid.. blizzard is just killing the dota by putting it into a sci-fi strategy genre
blizzard dota seems boring valves dota will be better.but of all m not gnna leave playing DOTA of warcraft 3 at any cost it rockzZz
KUNALROCKS
Didn't like StarCraft 2 at all. I'll wait for DotA 2 instead.
lmao blizzard wants money guys "it will be free for anyone who owns a copy of starcraft 2"
dota sci-fi doesn't look fun to me
@ 9:53
same thing im saying.. dota fits perfectly to its current style..
@Phillip
Of course Blizzard wants money.... It's a capitalist company.
IceFrog RICH+ING now? XD
i dont like starcraft 2..
so i dont like dota games in starcraft2..
i think dota 2 by valve will be more fun!
@ 9:58
nop.. IceFrog has no relations with Blizzard but he will become rich once Dota 2 releases =)
i am feeling sad about s2games and riotgames now what will happen to these kids....
who will pay 60$ for sci-fi blizzard dota crap
it will be no fun
dota is being released in every game as a map i think someday e1 C.s. will release dota as a map...roFL
how to download starcraft 2?
So now Blizzard wants to make more money by making a dota clone? how cheap
lol Zo'Muro .... thats weird
another clone!...please support icefrog and the original DotA!
Blizzard did a epic faill!!!
the hero looks like juggernaut in the first image o.O
n1
They must not call it DOTA since it is a sci-fi oriented game. They must change the title, like for example DotT (defense of the technology) :D
Dota 2 all day ;) starcraft 2 is alright, nothing can be compared to dota ;)
DOTA 2 by vavle+icefrog is more better than any clones. KEEP UPGRADING DOTA.
Blizzard should have hired IceFrog in the first place. Cloning dota now is kinda cheap :/. I think ill be rooting for Dota 2 :D
Why i don't like StarCraft 2's DotA...
1. StarCraft 2's icon too bad...
2. I think the spell pack not good against original DotA...
3. DotA heroes can fight with Machine??
So better play Valve DotA 2...
1st...
I don't think ancient heroes can fight with machine ~
2nd...
I don't think starcraft 2 can make the spell as good like original warcraft 3's dota...
3rd...
if using starcraft 2 play dota should us pay cd-key's money?? Ofcouse we need play free games...
If icefrog does become rish i think he deserves it ... I rate doTa2 will rape blizzdota
vavle is nothing compared to blizzard..!!! Look at all those blizzardz game.. all booming man.. !!! XXDDD
TOTAL FAIL! NO LAN SUPPORT FOR SC2! NO FUN!
EPIC FAIL FROM SC2!! IMAGINING CYBORG PUDGE AND OGRE! >.<
everybody ll ruin the whole game itself.... with so many clones .. even the players will v divided .. sadness
.. VrHP
http://www.playxp.com/sc2/news/view.php?article_id=2223043 more gameplay image...o.0
I think i have no what to say here cos many of you have said that: Dota Starcraft 2 will be an Epic fail.. Dota fits perfect on it's own style, don't think it'll be a good idea to mix with Starcraft :P
didn't like the look of it by now as far as i saw the pictures up.
YOUUUUUUUPIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!
MORE DOTA GAMEEEEE!!!
ROLF Starcraft 2 DOTA :)) kidding?DotA 2 rullz :X
were could i get dota2?
advance Dota..yeh..good work..^^,.
ultra blood super cool
hmmm i think dota 2 will be better anyway !!
Beyond Godlike!!! I like to play all these strategic-based games!! Can't wait!!!
i don't think valve owns the copyright of "Dota" since it wasn't icefrog alone who made it in the first place. blizzard owns the design of the heroes in Dota so they could just use it whenever they want to.
Defend of the Ancient's StarCraft??
what so ancient on StarCraft?..lul
Blizzard You porting dota into Starcraft 2
i will not wast my money on this shit game by blizzard
i like dota xD
Dota is Good in her current styl so i,m waiting 4 Dota 2 by Valve
Valve Rocks & Blizzard Sucks
Valve Rocks i will buy Dota 2 by Valve 100% not this shit game the mode is taken from starcraft 2 Blizzard Fail!!
I prefer DOTA2 even though I haven't seen it yet. I'm willing to wait the release of DOTA2. But I hope that Valve's DOTA2 overall judging will be better than Blizzard's StarCraft DotA Map.
i am also waiting the release of DOTA2... hope it release soon
I predict that IceFrog is gonna be the next Bill Gates :)
Like wtf idiots.
1. Not liking SC2(The RTS type game) doesn't necessarily mean you'll hate BlizzDotA just because it's on SC2, since the gameplay is different, basically. As with WC3 and DotA.
2. Ancients. They exist whether futuristic or not dumbasses. They don't mean medieval themes or barbaric people or whatever man. THINK. (Xel Naga anyone?)
3. ICONS? LIKE @#@$#@% DUDE. ICONS CAN BE MODIFIED. LIKE IN WC3 DUMBASS. (YEAH THAT's YOU KENNERDS WAYNE. STFU)
However:
4. Well yeah, copying DotA is kinda cheap and all. And I do agree it sucks cause SC2 doesn't have LAN capabilities(Though hacks provide the way lol)
5. This could be good, in a way. Paves a way for Sci-fi fans to get in to this whole Hero oriented games.
6. DotA 2 will probably be better still though.
People with narrow minds, or just plain stupid people = sure you are free to post your opinions, just hoping they were thought out and you know, not stupid. that's all.
I thought Valve bought the DOTA trademark months ago?
http://www.joystiq.com/2010/08/11/valve-files-dota-trademark/
Also,
Which was made with DOTA in mind from early developing on?
Which will feature love to details like custom voice-work?
Which will have the superior matchmaking-system? (looking at you bnet 2.0)
Which will have the better community-integration?
And most importantly: Which will have the better support?
Really i think dota2 is a waste of money cuz all u get really is new skins, models and some voice
what a trolll blizzard
This is big corporates exploiting someones enthusiast creation for a financial gain. This includes S2 games Riot games blizzard and valve(dunno about valve cause of icefrog)
why noy just create a game like DotA but the characters & items are from starcraft 2
Ouch!!! WC3 dota is beginning to end soon!!!! I still want to play the original one!!!
Defense of the Ancients...
Starcraft? Ancients? WTH
do you get me? it's like past is in the future! xD
much better if the heroes are from starcraft 2,
with their own items and skills
Because no ... Dota by Blizzard
No creative.
No creative~
DOTA in SC2? i don't like SC2 either ... this game sucks and it's kinda boring ... Blizzard should make WarCraft3, I don't care if they spend years of making WC3 but it's better rather than importing Ancients in a sci-fi game .... I can't imagine Treant (a tree) fighting with machines...
DOTA in SC2? I don't like SC2 either ... This game sucks and kinda boring ... Blizzard should create WC4, I don't care if they spend years for it but it's better rather than importing Ancients in sci-fi game ... I can't imagine Treant (a tree) fighting with machines ...
DOta 2 is cooler than starcraft
~.g0d
pro moves??
@Akhil above, yea, i am totally agree with you. everyone will like, some goes to Starcraft's DotA, some DotA2, some remain in Warcraft Dota, everyone will be divided. Sad, the large DotA community will become smaller and smaller..
Perhaps later on in the future, private server will be released, just like now we have private server of HoN... sooner or later, private server of DotA2 or Dota Blizzard will be up.. and the community will get even smaller by then..
Sigh, these bastards are really trying to bring down DotA2 while earning their fucking income.
Sarah Kerigan and Yurnero vs Drow Ranger and Jim Raynor O_o
EPIC !!!!
*Buys starcraft 2 after playing Beta*
Why do All Big Videogame Companies just make a Epic DotA rather than making many DotA clones because i hate it that there are many DotA clones and years ago, all people like the original DotA
I go for no one....i still go for dota normal...unlike this shit blizzard dota...getting idea from ice frog....and they're making it shit now too much sci fi-ness...ill just say...BLIZZARD STICK ON YOUR GAMES DONT GET SOMEONE'S IDEA!!!!!!!
SOTIS like WTF
blizzard vs. ice frog & valve....
http://www.gosugamers.net/dota/thread/633537/start/0
dota 2 new rikimaru picture
star craft 2... sounds sci-fi to me... well i still prefer the original dota.. take a look..IT'S NOT ANCIENT ANYMORE SO WHY THE HELL THEY CALL IT DOTA?! crap graphic designs.. futuristic no more magics and ancient weaponry
Sorry guys but your all pretty dumb.... W3 will still have dota like it always has and sc2, valve, riotgames, s2 games are just copying what icefrog has implemented on w3. It is an "option" to play "dota" on any game format that you have. They are not saying buy every single copy. just play dota on ur prefered gaming platform bc u can bc its an extra option on ur game that u love to play already. Brainless kids these days. have a good day! love pete!
bahhh,lamers,u'll never beat Icefrog.stick to the normal SC...
well for much played dota and starcraft.. its a big change on character based or effect based play.. but DOTA 2 realease... it might just might or maybe work... MANY fans of dota is eagerly waiting for dota 2.. well!? great!?
all i'm saying... dota 2 is far more better for DOTA players, because there are just small changes that occcured, but for the people who really likes challenge and more complicated tactics and strategies to play, they can play blizzard dota. All i say, it's no competition, and if it's a competition, it's anybody's game.
Javie~12 at you service.
this game is super ilastic. This game is the best game i evered played
VALVE + ICEFROG >>>>>>>>>>>>> BLIZZARD
VALVE + ICEFROG >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> BLIZZARD
@ 12:22 AM
You do have a point. Blizzard will have to be forced to use another name. Since Dota is trademarked.
DOTA2 the best
wow!!! i wish this will be the best..
Blizzard epic fail...
pfff u kiding me dota in starcraft come on this dota is gonna be so stupid valve dota 2 will be much much beter
looks lame its more like a starcraft than a dota . . .
c'mon a dota charater with a space suit what a lame . . .
fail of the year by Blizzard.
I don't think that Blizzard DotA will reach competitive scene. Probably, it will be a huge fail because Valve Software's DotA 2 will be dominating in that area. Also, StarCraft 2 does not have LAN support so no Garena user can play it. Only those who have paid for Blizzard account can play it.
/Fail
Its a good thing they work on the custom area of SC2 cus god knows its been awful. No matter how good the editor is, with that shitty "lobby" system they got its never gonna come close to the epicness of wc3 customgaming.
wow... i truly love blizzard, especially the diablo-games, and wc3 + tft.. but this is just so stupid.. they didnt care for dota AT ALL.. not a single tournament or anything. we all hoped for blizzard to take dota up and make a standalone game with icefrog, but they didnt. after all Huge struggles with sponsors for dota, now the game has finally made it to the top, and NOW they join the market..? Love your blizzard but GTFO
Demigod
League of Legends
Heroes Of Newerth
DotA 2
Bloodline champions
and now:
Blizzard DotA..
Greedisgood
valve is good, blizzard is good.
but as almost everybody said, it was a bad idea to make a DotA map in a sci-fi strategy game..
Starcraft2 is well designed and extremely fun. If you think different you're probably not that good at RTS games - Sorry.
I have yet to see Blizzard fail. Every one of their games has been extremely successful. It will either be as good as Valve's or better.
And as if sci-fi will make Dota crap. Dota is essentially already sci-fi if you look at some of the heroes... it's the map that isn't you idiots.
SC2 never beat DOTA, unless its HON. Hope you all Understand me :)

Rassler
Well, first of all DoTA is not an actual game, its an abuse of gameplay mechanics forced into works by a very talented modder.
Hiring IceFrog would indeed bring another DoTA but what if DoTA could become something more?
A real gamedesigner would probably give up on the idea of MoBA since there cant be too efficient controls like in Starcraft 2, the controls are just awsome.
So with the im not gonna say bad controls but mediocre a crucial part of your skill is learning how to move your hero as efficient as possible.
In League of Legends they put everything that made DoTA unique and started to take away and add features that was necessary. Now im gonna say that when League of Legends came out it was King, I even liked better than HoN (sure laning phase wasnt that hard in LoL but I didnt have any problem with it in HoN either)
NOW however Riot has become a company that feeds on casuals. Its an evil circle, if u make it too hardcore no one will play it and thus creating no playerbase for there even to be a competitive playerbase.
So they are just trying to make more money by as of now releasing Champions every third week or something. (in the beginning there was like 20-30 I think now it is 63! in like two YEARs!)
HoN released like 10 heroes in one and a half years but they patch and do balance changes like a prof company however, they took the safe root and made a DoTA with better interface.
MoBA needs to have faster gameplay and some Dual Stick action!
Well you guys don't have a point, Blizzard create warcraft 3 and ice-frog create Dota map without warcraft 3 no DOTA so STFU and play it before judging OK.
DotA is DotA!! zzz... But let us leave Blizzard to this, it'll make DotA even more popular and when they try to Play the orig DotA,, they'll leave starcraft ^_~ .V,,
aww sori for many post its arabic cant understand i just let google translate it sorry just post 1 its ok :D im sorry dota-utilities :D
Could Blizzard make it more, ancient cuz it would make the star craft 2 vanished..
Thank you
all are copy cats but the copies are good
WTF with "it aint old enough!" DOTA can be in any timeline any theme any scene. PLAY B 4 U judge. peace
hahaha.. WTF pudge and kardel...
pudge in a Space Suit with open stomach..??? OH COME ON!!!! you can do better than that(i think so).. LoL!!
u shouldnt say that dota isnt fit for sci-fi because AoE the original dota was made for starcraft. think its gonna be great. blizzard released a lot of official mods for wc3, why not for sc2?
as picasso said good artists copy, great artists steal. and u shouldnt say that dota isnt fit for sci-fi because AoE the original dota was made for starcraft. think its gonna be great. blizzard released a lot of official mods for wc3, why not for sc2?
and the protos are definently ancient.
You guy like a people who don know thanks other.If blizzard never make warcraft III how Icefrog make DotA? So you telling that blizzard steal from icefrog idea? Maybe, but they the one who created all the image. For SC 2 fan sure love this. But you guy cant judge without even try it. Think carefully. No blizzard no icefrog. If blizzard never make warcraft III the DotA mod never exist. Blizzard make warcraft III and icefrog make DotA in warcraft III. If you all complain blizzard ' Stupid mod stealer '. Then do you think blizzard have no right to make a idea that people make inside warcraft III?
lol dudes... first of all the only thing it shares with dota right now are the name and the play style, the heroes belong solely to Blizzard(Sylvanas, Stitches(no it;s not pudge) etc.) and IT WILL BE A STARCRAFT 2 MAP, using the improved starcraft 2 editor with much less limitation than the WC3 one. ofc not every 1 likes the sci-fi theme but heck I love it and I can't wait to play it:) I'm gonna buy SC2 for the entire purpose of playing it online.
w0w ..... awesome
5:36,
and if you actually noticed, valve trademarked the name, so blizzard has no right in using it in their future game...
4:41
1. Learn basic English.
2. IceFrog did NOT create DOTA.
3. The word "Dota" is trademarked, NO ONE has the right to use it on their own games, that includes Blizzard.
4. Dota was not created by blizzard either, it was created on one of their gaming engines but they did not create it, so if they make an official Dota game, they would have to change the name, otherwise they will get lawsuits.
5. Learn Grammar.
A lot of (bitter) people in this thread have played WC3 waaay too long.
Get over it and move on already.
Fk sc2 dota2 will rip romp AND stomp all over "blizzards dota" what a stupid fking name also. Icefrog is the only one that has the skills to truly make a next gen dota. All he needs is the financial backing, a whole bunch of badass artists and a kickass engine to run it on. Oh wait valve already gave him all that! Dota 2 is gonna be fking AWESOME.
this will just be a failed experiment by blizzard
i think our simple dota much more better than valve and blizzard and those freaky companies
i mean seriously guys there's 4 games of DOTA WTF ( defence of the ancients ,,, heroes of newerth ,,, DOTA 2 ,,, blizzard DOTA ) it's really complicated
hmm let me get this...RTS Games:
Aeon of Strife (AoS)= Blizzard Starcraft
Defence of the Ancients (DotA) = Blizzard Warcraft 3
Demi God = Gas Powered Games
Bloodline Champions = Bumblebee Studios
Heroes of Newerth (HoN) = S2 games
League of Legends (LoL) = Riot Games
DotA 2 = Valve + IceFrog
Blizzard DotA = Blizzard Starcraft 2
Avalon Heroes = Alaplaya
Land Of Chaos Online (LOCO) = Alaplaya
so many games what do u think??? xD
sounds like shit. icefrog gets no credit and this guy bores me to death.
Dota is just #1.
starcraft dota rly ?!? common. why ruin a popular map with this ?
I don't get Blizzard at all. They pulled support from dota and now they want to make a dota game? weird.
the real port of dota is league of legend not icefrog.
coz the first guys who developed the map dota on wc3 are 'guinsoo' and 'eul' these two people actually did some part on league of legends.
Dota 2 will fuk this blizzard's dota
Still sticking to Riots League of legends..
^ ye well but icefrog has taken over since years now and is doing a great job if u ask me. not trying to make LoL look bad, its not a bad game i just like current dota more.
however, unlike many others (fanboys mostly) im not mad at blizzard for "stealing" dota, after all it wouldnt have been created without sc or wc3 as stated in this video, im just happy this magnificent genre is evolving and that MOTHAFUCKIN BLIZZARD is taking its turn in creating a dota-like game; its a bit weird that they actually call it DotA, not a very smooth move imo, but still, theyre doing great games and i was already regretting buying SC2 (not very good at micr ^.-), which will hopefully change soon :)
icefrog is making a full game. people who dont have 60$ will not play blizzard dota. dota 2 would probably cost something like 40$. besides, i dont play starcraft 2 for dota. dota 2 would beat this blizzmod.
did the star craft 2 got dota???
Why is everyone assuming, that people will buy starcraft 2 only for the dota map? And how can this icefrog own rights to dota if he made it on blizzard's platform?
Since the dota isn't the only game mod of sc2, maybe you should base your comparisons somewhere else than between the 2 games.
If you want dota only, maybe dota 2 will be a better choice, but I don't understand why you should pay any attention on blizzard's map.
Maybe they should've changed the name to like "blizzard allstars arena" or something. BAA would give worse impression on people than dota though....
lol...Sci-Fi Pudge!Enough said!
EPIC FAIL!
a lot of ppl that play dota already got SC2 so the price shouldnt be an issue.. and if u got 40 bucks u can also scratch together 60.
as for dota 2 will beat this blizzmod: ppl have to realize that dota 2 will most likely not have any changes to gameplay compared to wc3-dota. im interested in sth fresh and new tbh
Its obvious that almost
dota players will go to
Dota2 Thats it. ^ pudge on
that video is weird.. lol
even if starcaft uses dota as the name .... it doesn't fit ... Warcraft<<< Ancients/dotAAAA <<< yes
Starcraft<<< ancients??? <<< big no no ...
it's either they change the name or it won't fit at all
when this will be released?..i wanna try this f****** game :DD
I think its more good for us starcraft and warcraft fanatic to play Blizzard dota. Because of there creation of the game "dota" is born.
he's about to cry lol
Ok, after reading every comment on this page i can say that at least 80% of the people that did comment here are sold out to valve and have no interest in Starcraft 2 to begin with. I've played it for a long time and since blizzard isn't charging extra for the DOTA map why complain, to be honest there are already some user made DOTA maps on B.net already, a very popular one is SOTIS: Storm of the imperial sanctum. I've played this so many times and really enjoy the change of pace from the intense macro and micro management from the SC2 ladders. I believe anyone that posts any comment like onces i read a moment ago. "i'm not going to pay 60$ for blizz dota" are just victims of mental health issues as if you really played SC2 you would already have the cd-key, so those people must have simply cracked the game. what a waste considering SC2 is just so much fun and probably the best RTS game there is out right now.
B.net community is a really good one, you will rarely find smack talk on it, unlike this forum where it seems to be used only for this. Most of you should just think about the comments you posted and bring your own lack of knowledge to your attention rather then trolling blizzard and favoring valve that simply took a map created in the blizzard community and is making a profit off of it .... the way i look at it, blizzard isn't the money greedy one, valve is. Blizzard seems to simply want to keep it's fans happy by releasing something that some of them will enjoy so they don't need to waste money on valve's so called "DOTA trademark". Doesn't anyone here think that for a game MOD valve is going a bit too far and not thinking at all about it's community?
well i hope this could help bring a better point of view but i know most people won't even bother reading the whole thing.
same genre different heroes?
wtf??
DOTA means
Defense of the ANCIENTS
and starcraft is not ancient..
OMFG..
so lazy in picking names
Typical money generating games, wtf man if ur good at one thing stick to it not making urself good at EVERYTHING!!! Meaning stick to ST2 and stick to DOTA engines not swapping and mixing sh it cause gamers are pissed when doing this type of retardness, JEALOUSY!!! GG and HF -BloodlettinG-
-.-
O damn! Can't wait to play as DIablo or Necromancer!!
ST2 got no ideas at all...using the ancient heroes of DOTA.support IceFrog~
*Valve will probably sue Blizzard for using DOTA name as they acquired trademark.*
everything made by comunity in custom maps belongs to blizzard.
dota belongs to blizzard
valce copies dota, valve steals from blizzard
so valve has literraly no way of suing blizzard and winning
It has potential, although I believe the Valve version will be far superior due to them having IceFrog as the lead developer who worked on DotA for a long time.
how to add song when opening warcraft???
reposting this cause it embodies what I wanna say.
Like wtf idiots.
1. Not liking SC2(The RTS type game) doesn't necessarily mean you'll hate BlizzDotA just because it's on SC2, since the gameplay is different, basically. As with WC3 and DotA.
2. Ancients. They exist whether futuristic or not dumbasses. They don't mean medieval themes or barbaric people or whatever man. THINK. (Xel Naga anyone?)
3. ICONS? LIKE @#@$#@% DUDE. ICONS CAN BE MODIFIED. LIKE IN WC3 DUMBASS. (YEAH THAT's YOU KENNERDS WAYNE. STFU)
However:
4. Well yeah, copying DotA is kinda cheap and all. And I do agree it sucks cause SC2 doesn't have LAN capabilities(Though hacks provide the way lol)
5. This could be good, in a way. Paves a way for Sci-fi fans to get in to this whole Hero oriented games.
6. DotA 2 will probably be better still though.
People with narrow minds, or just plain stupid people = sure you are free to post your opinions, just hoping they were thought out and you know, not stupid. that's all.
blizzard== no originality they make it to compitate icefrog
and make mony DONT use DotA name its illegal it has a TRADE mARK™
@1:05 : learn english. :D
@1:05 hahahaa but he is RIGHT
Wouldn't it be cool that we make something we present as new and use our own character names. Then we can sell you a game so you play this MAP. That was inspired by Dota. But this is not Dota this is Blizzard Dota. Can't day at least don't use the name DOTA. Call it Blizzardia. Or SC2 fail cause of again 10 time more speed then RTS game should have. And totally worthless for the normal players. So here we present you a crappy copy of DOTA (omg not one more we go so many already) with the incredible characters of Blizzard. Buy more books so you can read about them. You already got WoW DOTA what do you need SC2 Dota for ...
Don't just hate this because it's on SC2. Don't hate it because it's a ploy by Blizzard to make money(it isn't; the map will be free like the other 3 maps Blizzard made for Blizcon). Don't hate it because it uses the name DotA, even though they probably should have used something else. Hate it because you've played it and didn't like it. If you don't have SC2 for whatever reason, then don't bother commenting...you can't play this, anyway...
I played this at Blizcon, and must say it was very good. I have no doubt in my mind that DotA2 will be better, but for a free map(whenever the heck they finally release it) it was worth playing.
half of the comments are stupid, 1. its just a custom map for sc2. 2. for people that say dota is for wc3 not sc2, go read up on dota they got the concept from sc. NUF SAID!!!
people that complain that there is no lan, GTFU and buy a computer and get internet NOOBS!!!
i officially h8 blizzard!
Blizzard hates Icefrog
to all noobs, first of all warcraft is made by blizzard, icefrog did make a dota, but first he consults the blizzard to make dota advertise. blizzard hates icefrog? lol wtf! btw blizzard hired icefrog on dota. to those who dont know. STFU! you dont know anything
Ok i didnt want to post this but the amount of not knowing anything about and still talking about it is killing me.
Firstly some of you need to fix your spelling asap, secondly i think and i think most of people playing the real dota think what i think, DOTA should stay in warcraft 3 it was invented there by eul, made better by some guys i forgot and made even better by Ice_Frog later on, valve just wants money like everyone else making dota clones and blizzard probably felt betrayed by the fact IceFrog is cooperating with valve on the new dota2 nobody has any idea about excepting its in production and who is making it (+some art)so they did their own dota in attempt to keep dota in blizzard community, thirdly sc2 doesnt suck, people just hate it cause its not as balanced as sc1 and it has 1000 times better map/spell/unit options then wc3 (but the sizes of custom models and skins would be "a bit" too big to upload it) so if someone feels like he has no life he can make exactly the same dota from wc3 but with s2 graphics in sc2, personaly i think dota 2 and sc2 dota cant be compared cause one of em is a videogame by itself and one of em a mod for another videogame (+ if its from valve itl prolly be on steam). so dont spit on one and worship the other untill you know what your actualy talking about or tried both of em. and btw if you hate blizzarrd you hate warcraft meaning you hate maps for warcraft hence you hate dota too (logics ftw)
uhm...
what idiocy..
i mean
DOTA
an acronym for
Defense Of The Ancients
in a SCI-FI?
their head is blinded for lust of money..
"Ancient Heroes" + "Future Setting" = Mega Crap!
Valve will rule all
hey retards
do any of thsoe heros look like ancient fantasy style heroes?
than stfu and wait for dota 2
@Matteo
Finally, a comment has been made that isn't "Hurr, it's not ancient and medieval, it's crap". Seriously, take a step back. Just because its adopted the SC2 setting dosen't mean its backwards and wrong.
Or has everyone already sold their souls to Valve despite years of enjoying DoTA in Warcraft 3?
techno pudge FTW!!!!!!!!!!
im not aware of any fail-games from blizzard so. that should be enough
this is gonna suck
DOTA means Defense of the Ancients. why the heck they are making a Dota version on Starcraft. FAIL
come on guys.. give the guy a chance :D
about 5 yrs ago, people treat DOTA as just crap warcraft map that didn't deserve tournaments.. and look what it reached now.. Philippines is the origin of DOTA right??? i saw people here playing dota about 6 yrs ago.. i think that was version 6.20+ or something..
How about instead of calling it crap to begin with, take it as it is....try it, if you don't like it afterwards, then don't play.
why oh why
oh damn!
DotA2, DotA in SC2, WHATEVERRR!!!
i don't care, i'll keep on playing DotA in WC3.
it's classic, and i'm definitely more used to it!!!
i hope they still update DotA in WC3...
NICE.. I want to play the next DOTA!
don't change gameplay or items too much at first map I quit lol and hon because they made it too complicated....AND I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO PLAY AN AI MAP BEFORE PLAYING WITH REAL PEOPLE...
AND I AM NOT GONNA PAY FOR IT
I think this idea is not bad at all, except SC2 needs lot's of PC requirement coz of it's exceptional graphics and it's not for free :D ...
Defense of the Ancients??? Xel'Naga, Protoss and Zerg are more Ancients than Night Elves and the Burning Legion, not to mention Hybrids(Dark Voice)...Medieval Humans are not even Ancients, but it's acceptable
Icons & Sci-fi graphics ???? oh come on.. thats why we have an Modifier/Editor...and Blizzard owns both SC2 and Warcraft III so they are basically the same thing.. DOTA couldn't be possible w/o Blizzard's Warcraft III... so they have the rights to clone it...
Starcraft Dota will be a fun mini-game to sc2 but i don't think it will be played as much as either original dota or next generations Dota2.
Its true that the original "Dota engine" needs to be updated. But all the current contestants are not flawless. And as long as they are not perfect, i will consider them as "third-party games" to Dota.
BLIZZARD DOTA will suck balls!! i tHink that cause look at the images....it's like drawed in paint!!
Valve dota will be the best hit ever!!! it will crush Blizzard Dota And Dota in 3 days...
Maybe Blizzard Will Create Warcraft 4 Before They Make This Map !SC2 Is Sucks It Is Only Science Fiction It Will Be A Epicfail if they do this . it will be good if they remake warcraft then create dota . that's will become a good ideal .
honestly, im speechless with this "DOTA 2" suck! if really want play this kind of dota better go play HON* DUMB
wow
its amazing!
now i KNOW!
BASH!
Seriously guys... have any of you even seen the original interview where the staff introduced this ??
They paid all homage to the old DotA that they need to.
Hell they explicitly said they created it because they DID love the old DotA.
They also created it to put the idea into the community.
To see what we did with it.
A game engine that can do everything WC3 did and do it better.
A game engine with superior graphics compared to WC3.
Sure it can't compare to the nostalgic feeling the old WC3 DotA has but hell, almost NO SEQUEL EVER can.
Stop whining, I get the feeling most here are die hard fanatics that would stay in the burning boat even as it smoulders to ashes and sinks right under your feet.
Times change, games change.
Hell even the players and player base change.
I feel what Blizzard did was awesome if for no other reason than the fact that it will be immensely cool to see where the fans take it from here.
They gave us the basic tools, 1 map, some characters and the ground rules to build on.
Where Blizzards little mod goes from there they have left to us, the users. And if nothing else, as a free gift, that is a really cool thing to do.
Will it beat the other DotA's I have no idea.
But it will be interesting to see where they go with it from here.
PS: Seriously though... stop complaining. Over half the posts read as childish ranting and little else.
Even if some of you have a point.
People stupidity is astounding.. you people do realize with out Blizzard there BE NO DOTA and the fact your screaming how blizzard is offering player a FREE game mode to owners is a sell out compared to a guy who sold his talents to valve to make a game were getting for free but you have to pay for speak level of your mentality to me.
"DOTA IN SPACE DOESN'T WORK!?!?!?" this is the dumbest one I've herd, if the game PLAY the exact same who the fuck care if it fantasy or sci-fi the mechanics of the game there.
It just comes down to the fact people wanna think valve is some kinda "for the underdog" developer… I’d like TF2 to speak different about valve character.
You now get crate you have to open with a key you have to use REAL cash for.
Ya that totally not a sell out company.
DOTA = Defense of the Ancients
An ancient on a Sci-fi future based game? It seems so unreasonable and stupid.
I think a sci fi ascpect would be super cool, great new graphics etc. I don' t think ping and user control will be what it should be on the sc2 engine, as of now at least...
league of legends is free and good enough
1st the better
so normal DotA is and will be much more fun than HoN, LoL & DOTA2, i mean its more original than all those other games xD xD
BTW and ya SC2 DotA is an Epic Fail!
come on guys
this is so cool..
woah!!!
It's good and it has a good graphics!
Cheers for Blizzard!
AWESOME,,., AS WHAT WOULD BE
IMAGINED FOR THE FOLLOWING YEARS TO COME,.,.,.
DOTA 2 will rule now that valve supports icefrog but starcraft dota like game would still be nice....and it would be much better to have it F2P
Blizzard DotA is not even near Warcraft DotA and with the incoming DotA2, they have no chance.
Blizzard is just making a last minute bold action cause they didn't support Warcraft DotA for these years and is failing at making a new game that can be as popular as Warcraft DotA.
so MARVELLOUS!!!
Good is game...
Good game...
Not sure if this is a fail or win idea :( depends on what Valve puts out?
more dota? lame. hurry up with d3 ffs
dota 2, LoL, its already done. millions wait for d3
@ anonymous
I totally agree man... valid points...
Wow.... there is allot of good and stupid comments here.... first dota always going to be dota no matter in what way you play..... so if blizzard decide to make dota for starcraft 2 is ok just a new way to play dota whit your friends that all... so what is the big deal if you like it just play and if you don't keep you bs and funny ideas to yourself
You guys are silly, DOTA was built on BLIZZARDS map editor. So giving all this credit to some guy that came up with the concept and made it work on an easy to use program made by blizzard is just retarded. Dont forget he released it for free to the public, but now is looking to profit? I mean i would want profit too but i would realize that i made it for free on someone elses program with someone elses tools knowing that THEY own all the rights to anything i created. And no offense but the dota for wc3 was great for its time but its terribad now. I know you all like it and what not but its a dinosaur. I for one am looking forward to blizzard dota to be another possibly fun, free moba. Also im tired of goblins, mages, trolls, and elfs. I will be looking forward to something sci fi in this genre to play. As i own sc2 already, if i didnt i would just play lol instead. If dota 2 is free i will try it too, but if its anything like the original where i have to remember weird item "recipes" and go to 10 different shops just to get an item then i will not be interested. Although im partial to the lazy style of these games i must say that i think the future in these games are completely skill based without the "snowballing" effect of killing and getting gold and buying items and whatnot. If that sounds good and interests you check out bloodline champions, its free and its exactly what i just described. Lets not forget that Aeon of Strife was the original. Im not sure if icefrog created that one but i doubt it, so if you really wanna be a fanboi to the originator of this genre find out who made that and fanboi them. Peace
it's just like before...
you can't appreciate the blizzard dota at first...
maybe after you try it, there'll be a better real judgement than judging the book by it's cover...
When is this Dota going to be published?
Dota is a game for angry raging nerds kids anyways...do we really want them to infest starcraft?
