One thing is for sure:ĭota is probably one of the best-known games around for a variety of reasons. No-one is sure exactly who contributed the most or who was the true author, just like with Satoshi Nakamoto and Bitcoins (which were also created in 2009…coincidence? We don’t think so!). Such as the case is with all legends, its birth is concealed in a thick cloud of myths and legends to the point where you can’t tell might from magic and dungeons from dragons. Dota 2 the game was released after 2 years of beta-testing. Valve heard about this and employed IceFrog as a developer in 2009. Makers like Gunner_4_ever, Eul, Meian, Ragn0r, Guinsoo, and last but not least IceFrog plus many, many others, worked on the features until the game has evolved to the point of perfection quite some blood, sweat, and tears later.
This map quickly outperformed all competitors, and during the history of Warcraft III, whoever would not try to compete with DotA in popularity, he always remained with nothing.”Įul’s variant, called “Defense of the Ancients”, inspired the current game title.
This is how the familiar landscape of the map appeared, which Eul called the Defense of the Ancients. There was enough space for forest creeps – they were located between the lines. The lines began to run along the edges of the square map, and the center was placed diagonally between the bases. To begin with, Eul pushed as much as possible the enemy bases into the corners and unfolded the map by 45 degrees. He realized that all prototypes have significant drawbacks, and decided to create his own AoS, in which he would collect all the best from dozens of other maps. “During the chaos that took place among the map designers, a developer called Eul silently studied all variations of Aeon of Strife for Warcraft III.
There were many attempts until, as Kirill «gr1nder» Rusakov writes: The map was basically so awesome in so many ways that people started making their own variations everywhere and any way they could.
Dota 2 (Defence Of The Ancients) began originally as a WarCraft map called «Aeon of Strife».
