Old DotA

Div my man the early maps were not balanced ) Sentinel had the top creeps 2 times stronger than scourge creeps if i recall it correctly(The map where riki had death ward and invis on lvl5 ) )

and manta was made ouf of diffusal; hex from eul and aganim was smtng completely diffrent.. thoose vere days

That was even earlier than the time hex was made from euls(it had 9 or 8 charges) and oblivion staff if i recall correctly, and aghanims was made from soul booster and mystic staff and it was for like 10-15 heroes...

Btw i've stoped playing dota for like 20-30 versions and when i got back there was a new mode "SD" and some1 asked for swap i was like wtf how can i swap(we used to switch PCs when we played in a net club if we didnt want to play a certain hero) so they told me and I asked a guy to give me enchantress thinking it was like in the old days. Pure pwnage from lvl 1, but noooo IceFrog switched her ulti with her 1st spell and I was like FFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU! First spell untouchable WTF!!!!!!

I called "ancient times" where "everything was balanced" with pure sarcasm
It's the backdoor criers that find everything they can't cope with imbalanced that made me do this.

Well, TBH I only really played some v6.42 era maps with AI (still laughing at my attempts to outcarry old naix with CM ), then couple of updates, and didn't go online until like, 6.60? Anyway, somewhere around the point where WR and Kunkka were introduced, and 5x Old Aghanim OD raped everything.

I also recall playing old, Eul dota with friend couple of times (note - Dragon Knight was present there and didn't change at all since then well, maybe beside numbers and rescaling from 10lvl to 25lvl model), and briefly 5.84c,it was ported to work with recent patches, I think it also works with 1.26a and it's in PD map database... Nostalgia match anyone?

I read some articles about all those old stupidly overpowered heroes like 40-spell invoker or Void Demon, kinda regret I didn't know about DotA back then

Astaroth, actually this thread could be split into two parts, just get old DotA discussion away to cut out offtopic from there and give it separate thread. Somehow I think this discussion might get a few more posts.

I love it when I start topics when I'm sleepwalking and can't even remember when that happened )

Anyways I remember when I played brood first time and I read on the ulti that it gives dmg but 60% lifesteal so I didn't want to activate it cause I thought it would take 60% of my health for that dmg it gives me haahhahahahaha so fucking epic xD
