Dota 2

Dota 2 is a direct sequel to the original Defense of the Ancients (DotA) mod of Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne. It is developed by Valve as a stand-alone game with help from IceFrog, who is the most recent developer for the orginal DotA. Even though it's a sequel, most of the mechanics are taken straight from DotA.

Dota is now a trademark of Valve.
