Also fun fact, Legion from DotA raided a village (idk whether he knew about current Legion or not) and some girl came up to him for a duel. Hence our current Legion commander became legion
Nice iceberg, I miss the theory about Enigma knowing he's in a videogame because he is the only one that speaks directly to the player and questions his own existance
NO SHIT MAN I PLAYED THIS GSME 3500 HOURS AND I KNOW THAT NOW?!
it's crazy seeing a youtuber make a video on my little fun project. thanks and I hope you enjoyed it, I know it wasn't the greatest most obscure list but I had fun making it and enjoyed the vid!
Glad ya liked it :D Sry for the typo in the video tho :(
@@wilsonsticks I didn't see any typos, the production quality is great especially with the clips, nothing to worry about hah
edit: just saw the name typo haha absolutely fine mate no worries
What about Undying's voiceline when seeing Invoker; "CARL?! IS THAT YOU?!"
Completely forgot about that lol, thanks for reminding me!
is it carl or kael?
@@indrasetiawan27475 it was originally kael, but a long time ago on a dota1 wiki or write up about invoker on a chinese website the translation was karl or carl and then the meme begun
pretty sure it's carl@@indrasetiawan27475
@@indrasetiawan27475it was Cael in dota 1 but in dota 2 it’s carl
Pocket Riki is an old forum post where it was joked around when not all heroes had an aghs that if you got a aghs on riki then you could jump into your allies inventory
I didn't expect a 55 min video to zoom past me, very engaging thanks
Glad you enjoyed! :D
The 5 overlayed courier spawn noises in the first second of the match is a relic of having to buy the courier
I'm dying on a dota 2 video that isn't gameplay fails or combo, so thank you for satisfying my curiosity
Pocket riki refers to the shitpost 8yrs ago for an aghs idea for riki, where he enters an ally heroes inventory, where he gives his passives to the hero. He can also be sold for gold, or consumed for health
Invoker’s model is from Warcraft’s Kael’thas. Chinese romanization of “Kael” is Kah-Er, romanized back to English as Carl (listen to Sumiya talk about Carl). Zeus’ model was reworked too - became a buff boy. Dota 2 has family ties with League of Legends via Guinsoo, a designer of Dota 1. Sheepstick used to be called Guinsoo’s Scythe of Vyse, an upgrade of Eul’s. To follow Earthshaker’s Dota 1 lineage with his Arcana, Wraith King did the same as the Skeleton King (implied as Leoric). Spectre was a future self of Phantom Assassin. In Dota 1, Terror Blade and AntiMage were brothers, which used the same Warcraft character Illidan pre/post demonic corruption. Troll and Faceless Void equipped with basher and enough ias used to have permabash (no cooldown) - went thru BKB; insta-win! Right click Zeus was meta when Butterfly was first introduced. Eaglesong and Reaver referenced Diablo 2 items Eaglehorn and Messerschmidt’s Reaver. Buriza-do-kyanon (Japanese romanization of Blizzard Canon) of Diablo 2 fame, ended up as the Daedalus.
Thx for the vid! Popped up so many ah-ha moments of my childhood memories!
Based comment
I had totally forgotten about the Pendragon drama man, what a flash from the past.
I(most dota fans) still salty about that
Even I'm still salty about it
A former hidden channel called "Tjinzo" Covered the entire drama back then. He's now trying on educational animations and privated all his dota videos if I remember
Random note, there's a UA-camr "Eric Wright" Who makes guides on an animated astronaut suit sfm. Also gone
@@ZurinArctus0 I don't blame other LoL developers. I'm more pissed about pendragon's bullshit act and will despise him until my last breath. fuck that guy.
It sorta explains League's inability to create non-overtuned champions anymore. They dont have the limitations that the wc3 engine used to have.
44:10 well now since Kunkka drops "undead" token in crownfall event it is confirmed he's in fact a ghost pirate
Yes indeed, though I have a few gripes about who's counted as undead or a spirit or a demon, but that's for another video I suppose
Might be too late to see this, but just wanted to mention that one of the late game visual bugs was that if the game took long enough, character models would just stop appearing on the map and become extremely difficult to interact with. They were not mechanically invisible and you couldn't even see/click the highlighter circle to indicate where they were, making the game practically unplayable.
"Solo" placed 100$ and won 322 due to 3.22 coef
Great iceberg video mate, really enjoyed listening to this while playing! Keep up the good work :)
Man you have a soothing way of talking, and nice explanations, got me engaged till the end. Hoping to see more contents like this!
finally, i had been waiting ages for the dota 2 ice berg to be explained in a video. thank you so much and instantly subscribing !
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching and thanks for your subscription :)
we demand another of these things.
I enjoyed it. thanks for this
Glad ya liked it! More content is in the way :)
Courier count wasn't limited to 1 in dota1 actually. If you are willing to buy more then one, it would be totally fine and some mid players actually bought their own courier besides the one which team share and they explicitly say to "don't use this courier' to the team
Holy shit I was waiting for this to drop and then I missed it 😂😂 so hype to watch!
brilliant video this mate, first one of yours I've seen will defiantly be sticking around for more!
Great video and topic! Some things I think you may have missed that I thought might have appeared on the iceberg:
- There used to be a fourth type of damage in Dota 2 that got removed, it was called composite damage I think, which dealt a mix of physical and magical damage.
- Techies' minefield sign ability was originally a part of a set, but was then added to the default set after players complained that it could have been pay-to-win. The reasoning was that it was contributing to the psychological warfare of placing mines.
- Invoker's Cataclysm upgrade was first featured in Siltbreaker, where it was one of the abilities of a boss you and your teammates fought.
- There used to be a bug (or perhaps an interesting mechanical interaction) with Batrider's and Pangolier's ultimates, where a lassoed target would take massive damage in rapid succession from Pango's ultimate once they made contact.
- Keeper of the Light's Will-O-Wisp actually has a name, it's called Ignis Fatuus.
Thanks for the info!
Isn't Ignis Fatuus just...will of the wisp?
I've been following Dota since 2017,I've never seen a more complete video. Congratulations.
So glad youtube recommended this video, i like how you explain things, keep up the good work sir!
Thanks a bunch! There's more content on the way :)
Been watching your videos for a while when B-town told me about them, didn’t expect you to blow up so much :D, congrats man
Thanks a bunch!
I am really new to dota, but you still managed to captivate me for 50+ min😮.
Would like to see more, subscribed👍
Welcome to the game goodluck!
Amazing video, appreciate the magicka soundtrack!
Glad to see a fellow Magicka enjoyer in the comments :)
@@wilsonsticksOne of my favorite games of all time, I'll never forget the moment when I found the excalibur hahaha
I will never forget the lvl1 LC Iron Talon jungle pickers. So much MMR down the drain
Damn nice video... it brought up so many memories man like 322 alrdy forgot about that or the fountain getting destroyed.. haha wp with the video
Amazing video didnt know a lot of this stuff
the river's name: slur-free version (replaces slur with "dumbass")
the joke is that someone thought the river was called "dumbass" because their teammates would always say "don't cross the river dumbass"
finally another dota 2 creator who bring a new content, love it!
venge throwing venge brings back memories
Glad to help ya relive some nostalgia :)
commenting now to tell you that with the new hero facets vengeful can once again throw herself at enemies
The way you talk is very charming and definitely is what made me stick around and watch the video. Great job! ^^
Thanks a bunch! What topic about Dota do you think I should talk about next?
@@wilsonsticks What about TI 6? Since you mentioned it was so good :) I'm kinda new to Dota so it would be cool to hear
Just the vibes and the content were so good. It felt magical. If you look up "Magical Moments TI6" there should be a 24 minute video with all the highlights from the tourney.
7:38 meep merp was carried pver from the original dota1 of i remember, and the "dota reporter" Series heavily references it
What an excellent video! But the physics grad in me has to mention that the fundamental physical forces aren’t actually quantum, but are from the Standard Model (but also apply to quantum physics too, hence fundamental forces). Definitely going to stick around for quality content!
I REMEMBER THAT RIVER NAME that was funny as hell back then
Wtf bro this is so good holy hell, you should do more i will subscribe you!
Thanks a bunch! More content is always on the way :)
Do people really need an iceberg to learn that Crystal Maiden and Lina are sisters? I feel that that one should've been surface level at most, but it's not like that information is hidden anyway.
I will say, of all the model reworks that characters had (at least up to the point where I stopped playing), the most memorable was my favorite character's, Venomancer. Most model reworks just gave the character more details or made them less similar to Blizzard characters, but I straight-up lost limbs and that will never not be funny to me. Sure, I wasn't using them, but they can't act like I wasn't going to notice :v
Speaking of Venomancer, here's a bit of trivia for him - his lore page describes him as the master of the Jidi's Acid Jungles, but one of his voice lines says he was a "minor inconvenience" there. I was never sure how those two bits of information squared with each other.
What an absolute banger of a video
Thanks a bunch! Glad ya liked it :)
Banger 🔥
Holy based! Slope in my comment section!
The Blink Dagger extra range IS actually in the description, just press alt and the tooltip shows that. It's been there at least since 2015 when I started playing.
Kael's fun name Carl is not a D1 reference per se. It is a reference to the russian community misspelling Kael's name in one of the patchnotes. This went viral and IceFrog implemented the fun name "Carl" for Kael.
*A fun name is a name with a low chance of replacing the actual name, like Moghul Khan > Moghul Khan't Touch This.
Fastest 55 minutes I've had in my life, great and insightful video!
Thanks a bunch for watching! :D
Incredibly interesting, thanks
this all trivia soo fuckin sickkk thanks for the refreshment man
52:10 My guy is literally surrounded by trees all over the battlefield
Who remembers the secret tauren boss you could summon in the top left part of the map in dota 1 ? Did i dream this as a teenager ?
Mr. Fildrong in MY comment section?!?!
I think it was a dream perhaps
Actually☝️🤓 322 was a reference about the team losing 3 to 22 in the game that they threw
Hope I remember it right but since Dota 1, it was implied that if you use Blink Dagger far above its cast range it would only take you to 2/3 of its range, unlike using BD precisely to its max range. Same goes with AM's and QoP's blink abilities. I forgot where I read it from but it's been like that since. It was a big QoL change to add an AoE circle for your cast range in Dota 2. Love the vid (especially the Techies iceberg)!
Not trying to be overly pedantic but blink goes like 5/6ths max range when over cast the 1200 range. Qop blink can be cast past max range and will go the max 1300 range. The interaction with qop is that u can go slightly past the 1300 'max'. If u click just outside the area u can blink like 1350-1400 range, very slight gain. People will do the trick with blink dagger since 1000 vs 1200 cast range can mean a missed stun on centaur for example. On QoP no1 will do this trick as it is difficult with small gain(qop blink 6sec cd vs blink 18), whats interesting is that the qop trick can be used when Bloodseeker ruptures you. A normal blink of 1300 range will proc rupture damage, but a max blink of 1400 range wont trigger the threshold. Its why TPs and relocate dont trigger rupture. This is how it was at least, maybe its patched.
I remember Unique Attack Modifiers is you cant skadi when you have desolator or Diffusal blade but now you can combine them.
good video!
keep it up i don't know whats the video but it takes commitment to make dota videos in todays time Hopefully you succeed
And now Venge can throw herself again. That, to me, is one of many hints that Icefrog still works on Dota 2, if only occasionally.
enjoyed it a lot, goodjob brother been playin dota for 20+ years....
Nice! Glad you liked the vid :)
When the tormenter was introduced, it was once again for a short period possible to destroy the fountain by putting the tormenter in spawn. This could be done by having an io relocate a primal beast while said primal beast using pulverise on the tormenter.
You could still destroy the fountain with Io relocating Primal Beast while he was Pulverizing the tormentor. Cursed indeed. It has been since patched out.
Undying has met Invoker in his alive days. he has the following voice line when meeting invoker: "CARL?! Is that you?"
very fun video
roshan was initally still a smevil when put under the curse it was the dire that gave made him a deal to turn him into what he was today and thats why the rosh pit initally was on the dire side and its also why rosh can roam the map during diretide
and also tinker is not kliner he is gordan he mentions needing a crowbar
I like that you said "the planet Ru" as if that's the canon name of the Dota planet but it's actually the name of Slack's pet dog. Ru has passed away now it's nice he's been honored in such a way.
Sven being a fish tracks, I think in WC3 you fight statues that Sven is based on when you play the campaign against Nagas
content the dota 2 community needs
42:14 is the first one that I 100% didnt knew about. I've'nt play dota since 2017.
I would also add browser games NaVi pudge hook trainer or invoker spell trainer (the last 1 still exists). It was so much fun to play it during a class at school before...
Also, Necro ulti would increase respawn time and not allow buyback to the hero that died from it, or smth like that. It was too OP :)
I always think about creating an easter and egg and reference video someday, like the monkey king banana peel, primal beast roar, or interesting and funny voicelines.Maybe you could do that next time
It's really easy making charts on that website, if you've got the time I recommend making one. Though tbf going through each individual hero's voicelines sounds a lot harder hah
in Dota 1 ealier patches, you can't buy Blink Dagger when you play as Butcher or Vengeful Spirit.
using Manta Style while in DK ultimate form, you will have to use shift button to clone the dragon instead of og hero
I read somewhere that gabe said in a recent interview that his new favorite hero is weaver 30:02
bane response was good one
7:17 this is not only about the fact that they’re sisters: in-game tips while game is paused has this exact text about them, and while there are more useful tips this one always makes people to giggle a bit and spam it
8:34 Solo made a bet of 100 dollars and the amount of winnings were 322, not 322 placed
10:50 Tusk knocked out Bristle’s eye, tis why he’s wearing a bandage. He’s cool about it tho 🙂
33:04 also Tiny’s old passive, craggy exterior. This was annoying af
38:15 also might be a reference for Francis from L4D series who was also saying “I hate C” and then anything instead of X
TI8 is arguably the best TI, the backstories from the teams and the skill of the players and had the best games.
noita music goes hard
At some point, everyone had the option to buy a courier for themselves, the idea of having "1" courier was because of the economical impact it had overall for the team.
broo, thank you for making this video. i literally haven't play dota for years. but it's kinda nice to see all the memories of this game. much love :D
RIP Dunoo
You hit the nose for me with Aghanim for being such a powerful and taken-seriously entity in the dota 2 universe (along with the fact that dota 2 is more of a mature, realistic, darker theme game) you get a goofball blue wizard??!!!! Who birthed/created arguably one of the best heroes in the game and in lore (and my favorite hero)! Such a letdown - even though Agh’s Lab was such a fun mode.
The invoker-carl is more specifically a reference to how Chinese players would pronounce Kael
Explaining pudge using roadhoag really blew my mind
A few nitpicks: no one ever said Hihi, his ID was HYHY. And TI3 meat hook was against tongfu not tofu
the intro sounds like you're smiling and it's very cute
Thank you! And I indeed was smiling :)
Timbersaw ptsd makes me kinda want to see a tree nc. 52:12
New nc update is always exciting for me a zoo hero user.
46:29
Dagon is another love craft one
Thanks for telling me the yapping warning. Put this up whiel travelling
Magina and Terrorblade are brother's turned into enemies
Im a returning Dota player and had to learn the BKB thing (among other new stuff) the hard way with Muerta. :D
i saw all the shit, im new to dota, thanks for the vod chief
No problem! Glad you enjoyed it :)
meep mrrp meep mrrp meep mrrp meep mrrp meep mrrp
blink does show its hidden mechanic when you press alt while reading the description. It has been like that since a couple years ago :(
The forced 50% isn’t a conspiracy theory. Players within a given rank are labeled as either Earners or Non-earners. When on a win streak you are labeled as an earner, and are teamed with more non-earners. Every single match is not perfectly balanced with 5 earners on each team. At max, it is usually 2-3 earners per team so queue times are faster and ranks are evenly spread. This is why players in your same rank can be dog shit.
Edit: This is how all skill based matchmaking systems work.
Hmm now i need to listen basshunter while playing again.
I honestly loved Dragons Blood and so did my girlfriend. The writing the story is amazing, 2nd season being the peak of it all imo but the overall story and emotions and the characters are amazing while i never understood how its so hated among the community.
Solo placed 100 on his lost, he was supposed to win 322 from coefficient 3.22
There hasn't been any lawsuits regarding hero names as far as I'm aware. Additionally, hero callings are completely random with no sensible thought behind them.
the aghanim's lore is because it used to largely be a useless item on some heroes and only like half of them even had an agh's upgrade even though the item wasn't hero locked like basher used to be, you could "buy it for the stats" on some heroes when it had a different recipe that included mystic staff.
the particle effects bug also used to take place with mostly dark seer, warlock and a few others after only like 70 minutes so it was semi-common in pro games for years
scythe of vyse is also an old dev name, the full name just isn't in the game anymore it used to be called guinsoo's scythe of vyse, guinsoo was one of the dota 1 devs
HOLY SHIT, HOMESTUCK MUSIC ON THE BACKGROUND!? THE UA-cam ALGORITHM HITTED ME WITH A 100% FOR THE FIRST TIME
Always happy to see someone recognize the obscure music I put in my vids :)
The way you pronounced Gob has every arrested development fan screaming at their screen 😂
epic video, knew most of these low tier things even though i am a noob (1.4k hours)
Finally, a Dota content that is actually interesting and not a Silly Build, FuNnY video made by a guy that smurfs on low ranked pubs.
Rip old Techies
For an abandoned game, Dota Underlords does in fact have a pretty stable playerbase.
and queue faster than normal dota games
