@@SpopySpiderAnd I love how it disgusted me the their vanilla graphic, enviroment, pallete in wow. Despite the cartoonish graphics it evoked me that discomfort.
Anti-mage has always looked so interesting, like everything about him makes it incredibly clear that his one defining trait is :drive. He is, from every aspect of his design, showing clear focus of purpose.
Lifestealer is underrated. His base model is so awesome, I feel bad every time I see any cosmetics on him. He is the only character that feels like your unlocking an arcana when you take all the cosmetics off.
I appreciate how confident and unique Dota hero design is. It always lets me down a little when the community lets through and supports yet another hyper-anime design, of super sexualised stick & bone women or super visually-busy edgy warrior/assassin. Not every character has to be goofy goblin cute or traditionally sexy. Creatures can be creatures. From Dawnbreaker & Mars onwards the lead designer changed to one who came from a Disney/Pixar background and I was a little unsure, because I feel they didn't fully understand the general aesthetic of the hero pool. Like Mars' facial design doesn't gel with Zeus or the general roster, with that Disney training shining through. Marci still sticks out but I can forgive that because of source material adaptation. But Primal Beast was a return to proper form, he's a dinosaur that really blends in design-wise. Muerta is great. I'm excited to see how Puppetmaster looks ingame.
I love phoenix, nyx and rubick details. Like phoenix not having a "mouth" as it wouldnt need sustenance or eating, at least by conventional means. Nyx being a bug that speaks through its mind and also how it communicates with its hive, with jaws that dont need to show a mouth, being a roach/scarab and not bipedal pseudo bug. And rubick simply being idle, with a constant mix of awe-boredom-excitement-desinterest, how he cant keep that hyper-focus if nothing is happening. He might also be constantly aware of surroudings in case an assassin is trying to ambush him. Or both.
My top 5 are: Hoodwink, Chaos Knight, Underlord (very underrated), Crystal Maiden and Silencer. Silencer already had the best Model in Warcraft 3 (Spellbreakers are damn based) and he looks just as amazing in Dota 2. Though with Skins, Queen of Pain, Doom and Ogre Magi are runner ups.
I like the Nightstalker design. Especially the switch of the design from daytime to night time with his "middle mouth" across the face opening up and such.
Lifestealer's at 11 for me I think. His lore kicks ass but I think his design could be a bit more connected to it. I remember seeing a set on the workshop called "Escape from Devarque" where he has his "master's" body grafted onto him and I think it does a better job of encapsulating his lore better than his current design.
You’re not wrong. Dota 2 is often praised for its gameplay and mechanics but rarely do you get people talking about what a beautiful game it really is.
Yup, bingo. And I've always respected Valve for not going down the path of general appeal. Marci's release scared me a bit, but I'm glad we got back on track with PB.
I hope you become the TB Skyen of DOTA from now on Would love to see your takes on Arcanas as well in the future would like to share my top 10 also in no particular order *Bloodseeker *Magnus *Snapfire *Enigma *Sven *Juggernaut *Oracle *Outworld Devourer *Lifestealer *Shadow Fiend
I wouldn't mind becoming the T B Skyen of Dota, except I won't have the delusional political takes like he does sometimes lmao. And yes, I do plan on reviewing skins in the near future once I have some other projects out of the way
@@wilsonsticks would like to do also YT someday and create my own fan arcana concepts same as those other LoL youtubers if that day comes, it would be an honor to have a partnership with you
Invoker is my top 1, but Outside of the dota 2 heroes, i think aghanim has the best character design. Reading the lore and rubick's story and going through the description of his scepter he gave off like a serious or mad wizzard vibe, same as invoker. I really thought that if we ever get to see him he would look so badass and do some crazy shit. Well, when we did came he appears as this goofy looking creature with four arms and sounding like an entertainer rather than a mad wizzard. And honestly i love it! He is surprisingly likable. And he is filled with dad jokes. I love that valve subdued our expectations of him and flip it over our heads.
I switch to DOTA 2 from League after knowing the existence of Phoenix and Nyx. I know Anivia exists but I'm only comfortable playing her in ARAM cause I'm a support player. Playstyle aside, Phoenix to me has this kind of odd ethereal charm to it. I've never seen anyone designing a bird on fire... this FIRE!!! And you're right, Phoenix looks like what a mythical creature supposed to look like. Meanwhile Anivia, Volibear and Ornn are glorified beast acting as sentient God. I don't have a problem with it but it feels like League character design is too safe. It can be good but never exceptional. DOTA 2 is fucking hard and confusing after the innate/facets update. But I still love playing Phoenix cause I just love the design, the voice and the gameplay. Oh and Nyx too. I sometimes pick Nyx out of necessity but I love saying "Nyx, Nyx, Nyx" irl to imitate how it says in game😆
I think the thing that kills me about DotA is actually the voice design. I got addicted to DP simply because I like her voice. "Thank you, my beauties" Same with my favorite hero Weaver. I liked his kit, liked his design, and adore his voice.
Abaddon should be rank higher when you realize his headpiece isn't random but actually a skull of the Zealot Scarabs ~ kin of Nyx Assassin. In lore the House of Avernus and the Zealot Scarabs has always been in odds of one another and seeing Abaddon wearing practically a skull to taunt or serve as a warning to the others is cool af.
i have an idea for muerta that i wish valve would use. So she talks about how she misses her horse...then give it to her. change her aghs to let her mount her horse. increase movement speed and let her have a dismount attack (maybe make all enemies ethereal at location). Similar to elden ring with the mount or diablo 4. she cant attack on it but can use it to catch up to fights or chase down the "souls that get away". It fixes her movement problems and gives her a unique awesome ability that will attract more players.
Great video! Dota 2 has some excellent designs. When I first saw the map itself (coming from DotA 1 & HoN) I was blown away. It was like a painting. And the hero designs are so, so good. They are so unique, unlike some other games I can think of :P And yes, I am totally on board with #1. One of the biggest glow-ups from the original, by far. My personal favorite might just be Shadow Fiend, because when Dota 2 had been announced, I speculated his design a lot, and drew many sketches that were almost exactly like what we ended up getting - other than being drawn worse, that is. So that one stands out in my mind. Of the newer heroes, I always thought Mars was really nicely designed. I can't quite explain it, but they just got him right.
The lore of dota is S tier as well I recommend those who has not watched Slack's Loregasm videos to watch them rly nice, and the world of Dota itself is bonkers since everyone is a God and equal since a bear who just hits really fast can kill the primordial being which exploded the ancients.
Hey great list! Maybe they wanted Quentin Tarantino to play dota, with the toes out and stuff. Im not good in naming the "best" of anything, there are so many good hero design's in dota.
11:15 the nerubians from the Warcraft universe (which is what nyx is based on) do wear armor but that wasn’t the case in Warcraft 3 Also huskar has the best design since he is the most alpha hero in dota
Someone finally brings it up! Why everyone has the footsies out... Windranger is the worst offender... why would a evasive ranger not wear any boots? One pebble and you are done.
I think she's like a hobbit, feeling stuff with feet makes her more agile when climbing trees or the like. Kinda how when u wear thick gloves, u become less dexterous.
Oh I'll let you know my thoughts down in the comments. . .Good video! I would have included Nightstalker; a pretty well executed vampire bat creature but then his face splitting vertically elevates him to another level.
Yes indeed it does! It was him and Meepo wrestling for number 10 in my head. Decided to go with Meepo in the end because his little rat face is so punchable.
I really like techies. Their way of being nervous and how they can't await fighting is just pure genius. Coupled with their voicelines, it's awesome. Apropos voice lines: How about doing a video about the best voice lines?
I'd need to look through a lot to figure that out, but I can safely say that my favorite set of all time is the first style of Razor's arcana, sry to disappoint you
Kinda wild to not see oracle. He's so visually intricate and detailed . There's literally no other sets as strong as the og design. I vibe with the rest of the list though
Oracle definitely has a unique and interesting design, but I never really managed to find it appealing. Just a matter of taste in the face of genuinely good character design.
Just a little Mistake, Muertas Lore its not about wanting revenge on bandits,instead wanting Revenge on the Sisters of the Veil(PA Organizatiom)the story from the book its just a fake tale
Me when Rubick is Number 1 and you don’t even do so because of his lore as Aghanim’s (The Guy Every Hero wants to purchase the Staff and Shard from, even Rubick Himself) Son. Possibly Bastard/Unwanted Son.
Yeah Aghanim's characterization kinda ruined Rubick's lore for me a bit. Rubick is an exception when it comes to my normal criteria. His personality and design are wicked sick. I just feel iffy about his dad being this weird goofball with the personality of a middle-aged high school sports coach.
@@wilsonsticks For me, its a Juxtaposition (Not Phantom Lancer’s ULT, screw Lancer, Chaos Knight is more based) of what we thought he was considering everyone not only benefits from his Scepter and Shard Now, but just about every Hero has a unique line for getting the Scepter, even Rubick wants it.
@@eagleye2893 Yes, Aghanim's character was definitely a subversion of expectations. But I think they could've taken it in a different way than just Cave Johnson but in Dota (no hate to Cave Johnson, I love him). I personally would have made Aghanim a cynical recluse who has no idea how much influence he and on the world, and is quite annoyed by the fact that everyone covets his Scepter
that's why dota has a lot of different otherworldly design because of the lore also, earth or the current world is not their home but they were drawn by the ancients power and thus that world became the hotspot for countless and endless repeating wars and is their "new home" of some sort Rubick is aso my fav design! Valve making patches: 😴😴😴 Valve making lores: 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥🗿🗿
I don’t say completely revamp him just keep the mask make him stand,walk and hold the blade normally make him taller and I don’t have a problem with short people I am short myself and I hate myself but in WC3 he was taller and bigger Rylai is the same,Akashi is the same and Pudge is the same why can’t Juggernaut All I want to say is give him a visual redesign
@@wilsonsticks may i suggest you do a top 20 or something of the heroes with the coolest lore in 'your opinion' plus a survey of our opinion in the future?
idk man, you should do the same as the Arcana, though the newer arcanas come with "sets", there are still old arcanas that are visually glorious and you don't want to switch back to the default hero, PA and CM for example
@wilsonsticks hollow knight fans have a reputation of gushing about it to anyone that will listen, so I'll just say that it's among my favorite games, and there are many MANY armored bugs. I'll hope to see a top ten hollow knight designs in my subscriptions one day. All the best to you, and +1 sub!
I played him once before the whole Dota Plus thing. . . It was a math in 2017 where I tried to run him offlane with Phase Boots Echo Sabre. . . It did not work
I don't think Shadow Fiend's design is very unique. It's a mess of sharp edges, spikes, and dark colors. It baits in all the ego-drunk edgelords. There's a reason SF's playerbase are super toxic. The model is high quality, but trying to dig deeper into it makes me feel like an idiot for bringing my scuba gear to a kiddie pool.
We may yet see that theme return. Who knows what Valve has got cooking up after Ringmaster. I think the most egregious form of this was when they updated the default HUD in 2016. The old one had so much personality and now it's just all grey, blocky, and corporate
My top is Tiny because its such an interesting evolution from cute pebble guy to giga bearded mountain that holds a tree as a weapon
Tiny is basically a pokemon
"I don't think I've seen this type of design anywhere outside of Dota"
Blizzard: -_- yeah we know, we lost.
You know... Black Sabbath wrote "war pigs", Faith no more just did it better. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
To be very fair, blizzard made his armored bugs and abandoned them as quick as they could
@@SpopySpiderAnd I love how it disgusted me the their vanilla graphic, enviroment, pallete in wow. Despite the cartoonish graphics it evoked me that discomfort.

"The true path"
"None shall hinder me"
"Outta my way"
His voicelines support that too.
when i switch from D1 to D2 i was amazed by the design of phoenix, razor, skywrath, and lc
Lifestealer is underrated. His base model is so awesome, I feel bad every time I see any cosmetics on him. He is the only character that feels like your unlocking an arcana when you take all the cosmetics off.
I adore wyvern's design. Mostly because of the contrast to her personality. You've got this giant ice dragon that just wants to read and write books
This is amazing to have not just competitive content in Dota, the people yearn for this kind of content
what a sigma
Troll warlord top 1 best designed character. Love him, love him to the bone.

best dota 2 content rn
You flatter me :)
I love phoenix, nyx and rubick details. Like phoenix not having a "mouth" as it wouldnt need sustenance or eating, at least by conventional means.

I looove that intro to phoenix, he explodes into the list
your little scarcrow pngs are adorable, especially the one with the big heart
I figured that Phoenix intro would've been epic. Also all those little PNGs are by @BeesInDisguise on Twitter if you wish to pay your compliments :)
My top 5 are:
Hoodwink, Chaos Knight, Underlord (very underrated), Crystal Maiden and Silencer.
Silencer already had the best Model in Warcraft 3 (Spellbreakers are damn based) and he looks just as amazing in Dota 2.
Though with Skins, Queen of Pain, Doom and Ogre Magi are runner ups.
I like the Nightstalker design. Especially the switch of the design from daytime to night time with his "middle mouth" across the face opening up and such.
Damn right! One of the best hero design in my book be it visual and concept
Lifestealer should be at least top 5. From his walk, constant crawling position, mouth - he is by far the scariest thing from Dota
Lifestealer's at 11 for me I think. His lore kicks ass but I think his design could be a bit more connected to it. I remember seeing a set on the workshop called "Escape from Devarque" where he has his "master's" body grafted onto him and I think it does a better job of encapsulating his lore better than his current design.
Another cool fact about Razor is that he has the most hilarious rare quote in the entire game, when slaying an enemy:
"Zapped your ass!"
Meepo posess the most beautiful eyes from the most beautiful actor on the planet,
Steve Buscemi
It’s Timbersaw
i like earthshaker the most I think. his gorilla body sells his strength, he uses his giant stone slab for all his spells, his face is iconic
I was looking forward to this :D
Glad you enjoyed :)

The single best example of how amazing can bugs in armor be must be Hollow Knight
IO.
Something about it gives me cosmic horror vibes. No matter how benevolent it may seem.

I feel like earth shaker should definitely be on this list.
He has a decent design, but it doesn't really jump out at me. It's perfectly average I think.

Best voice lines is on my list of vids to make, but it doesn't have a high priority atm
Valve hired classically trained animators when designing TF2 and Dota 2, it shows.
Blood seeker and mars are my favorite designs
Let's accept tye obvious, all valve dota 2 hero designs are amazing!
There are many that could've been better, but that'll be explored in another vid
Always thought dota had nice visuals but honestly i marveled at voiceovers and sound design more, Oracle in particular sounds amazing
The voice lines are also a huge factor as to if I like a hero or not. Half the reason I play Bristleback and Razor is because of their voice lines.
Razor and Leshrac gotta be my fav, both by design and voice acting. And both are voiced by same person :D
Eric Newsome does great voice work :)
I like Underlord because he looks like an old Gormiti

I played him once before the whole Dota Plus thing. . . It was a math in 2017 where I tried to run him offlane with Phase Boots Echo Sabre. . . It did not work
I support: Free feet pics of DOTA2 heroes. I demand Steam to create feet / tentacle avatar to more heroes: Sven, Silencer,
Which one has the biggest gazongas?
Dawnbreaker if my research is correct
@@wilsonsticks They're the most massive for sure. Forged of pure star metal, they ought to be over 50 KG each.
Wilson from House M.D.?
No, Wilson from Castaway
@@wilsonsticks great video i just wish it included Chen. Chen Gang!
no broodmother?
Sadly no spider momma :(
Where is shadow fiend?
I don't think Shadow Fiend's design is very unique. It's a mess of sharp edges, spikes, and dark colors. It baits in all the ego-drunk edgelords. There's a reason SF's playerbase are super toxic. The model is high quality, but trying to dig deeper into it makes me feel like an idiot for bringing my scuba gear to a kiddie pool.
It's sad that dota 2 has moved away from dark fantasy themes
We may yet see that theme return. Who knows what Valve has got cooking up after Ringmaster. I think the most egregious form of this was when they updated the default HUD in 2016. The old one had so much personality and now it's just all grey, blocky, and corporate
I think IO is the best visually
