DotA Trivia

1. Also known as the Admiral, what hero uses a Ghost Ship as his ultimate in battle?

From Quiz "DotA 2" Heroes [2]

Answer: Kunkka

Kunkka, a strength hero who uses his cutlass to strike down foes, is notably adept at controlling waves and water to male himself of use in battle. Besides being able to usher up torrents of water to send enemies high into the air, his ultimate attack is a Ghostship which can deal significant damage and cause stuns to enemies. His sword, known as 'Tidebringer', gives him a strong connection to another hero known for its water proficiency-- Tidehunter-- and while the two aren't explicitly linked, it's implied by fans that they're frenemies.

From Quiz "DotA 2" Heroes [1]

Answer: Witch Doctor

Witch Doctor, typically played as a supporting hero, is actually quite adaptable. While squishier than many heroes, his Intelligence-based skills have ranged from stuns to heals and, if left unattended to in battle, he can be a devastating foe to deal with, especially since his ultimate ability, his Death Ward, can fire off at enemies from a distance like a turret, actually hitting multiple enemies at once with an Aghanim's Scepter upgrade. A ranged hero, he's often best-suited to lanes with another hero in tow, mainly because of his paralyzing cask and healing abilities.

From Quiz "DotA 2" Not-So-Basics

Answer: Five

There will always be five players on the Radiant side and five players on the Dire side unless playing a custom game (eg. 10v10, Overthrow, etc.). Though the science behind drafting a team (unless in a party) isn't completely clear, the game tries to ensure that players of similar skill levels and MMR are grouped together and that, in this regard, both teams are even. This is, of course, based on play history. Once all ten players load in, the draft can begin in whatever way the game format permits.

From Quiz "DotA 2" Basics

Answer: Dire

The light-vs-dark dichotomy is pretty evident between the Radiant and Dire teams, and regardless of hero you can end up on one side of the river or the other simply based on random seeding (though some heroes are obviously evil and some would clearly side with good). The Radiant side always begins in the bottom left corner of the map and the Dire side commences in the top right. While the Radiant side of the map is often lush and green, the Dire side has withered away; both are split by a river running through the center of the map, crossed by paths or cut off at the ends.

From Quiz The Heroes of "Dota 2"

Answer: Vengeful Spirit

Vengeful Spirit's Nether Swap spell lets her immediately swap positions with any targeted hero in range. If her team is chasing down an enemy hero, she can swap them to be closer to the team. She can then follow up with a Magic Missile to stop her targets from fighting back or running away. She can also use her ability on allies, which can be useful when trying to escape. If she's low health and being chased, she can exchange her position for a healthy ally. Alternatively, if an important ally is in a difficult situation, she can help get them out (often dying in the process). Vengeful Spirit is often played as a support role, so it's often better for her to sacrifice herself to save a more valuable ally.

From Quiz What I've Seen Goes Far Beyond Death

Answer: She looked beyond the veil for the richest and wealthiest's fortune

Krobelus had the ability to look into the future of her client's present life and afterlife. It is a rare gift to see whether people will be condemned to the "Lake of Fire" or if they would be welcomed into the Gates of Heaven.

From Quiz "Defense of the Ancients" Hero Backgrounds

Answer: the Chaos Knight

"Defense of the Ancients" lines a roster of heroes belonging to one of two factions: the Sentinel and the Scourge. Each hero has a dominant attribute (either Strength, Agility or Intelligence), which defines its evolution during the game as well as the item build and playing strategy. Nessaj (the Chaos Knight), Davion (the Dragon Knight) and Sven (the Rogue Knight) are all Strength heroes, while Chen (the Holy Knight) is an Intelligence hero.

From Quiz "Defense of the Ancients"

Answer: Lina, the Slayer

Laguna Blade inflicts a large amount of damage (up to 1250) instantly. Lina's other spells include Dragon Slave, Light Strike Array, and Ultimate. Lion's level six spell, Finger of Death is similar to Lina's because it also does high, instant damage.

From Quiz "Defense of the Ancients" Hero

Answer: Chaos Knight

Phantasm is the skill in which the Chaos Knight makes copies of himself to confuse his enemies. This skill is also very hard to defend against.

From Quiz "DotA 2" Heroes [2]

Answer: Anti-Mage

One of the hardest carries in the game, Anti-Mage is a favourite of players who, with the right amount of dedication, wish to steamroll their late-game opponents. Using Mana Break and Mana Void (the latter being his ultimate attack), 'AM' is able to remove the mana from other heroes' bars, rendering them just a bit less useful in battle, and with the proper purchases, he can become nearly unstoppable as a carry hero in the late-game. This makes him a particularly important target in his earlier, formative laning stage; anyone taking their eyes off an AM could be as good as dead. Based on his backstory, he's anti-magic because his monastery was wiped out by a legion of undead crusaders.

From Quiz The Heroes of "Dota 2"

Answer: Rubick

Rubick's ultimate spell is Spell Steal. He targets an enemy hero, and whatever spell that hero last used will become available for Rubick. This can be devastating when Rubick copies opponent's ultimate spells, and can turn them back on their users.

From Quiz What I've Seen Goes Far Beyond Death

Answer: That others may die, and remain dead

There was no price that Krobelus wasn't willing to pay to see her own afterlife future. Unfortunately, Death found the price she offered to be insufficient, so she would die and continue to come back to life. Never knowing the greatest mysteries or finding rest was a great envy of hers.

From Quiz "Defense of the Ancients" Hero Backgrounds

Answer: the Magnataur

The Tauren race was introduced in "Warcraft III". All the three Taurens in "Defense of the Ancients" - Barathrum (the Spiritbreaker), Raigor Stonehoof (the Earthshaker) and the more recently added Cairne Bloodhoof (the Tauren Chieftain) - are powerful Strength heroes. The same thing can be said about Magnus (the Magnataur), which, despite his name, is not a Tauren, but rather a centaur-like creature.

From Quiz The "DotA" Quiz

Answer: Creeps

Creeps are units that are sent along the lanes towards each other along the three lanes connecting the bases. For the Sentinel, the creeps are treant (melee), and the druid of the talon (ranged), while the Scourge have ghouls (melee), and necromancers (ranged). A new wave spawns every thirty seconds. At certain intervals, a siege creep will spawn with the wave, either a glaive thrower or a meat wagon, depending on the faction. Siege creeps are extremely effective at destroying buildings. Creeps are generally the main source of gold and experience for heroes, especially in the early game when hero kills are not as common. It is possible to deny creeps, which involves killing creeps with low health to prevent enemies from receiving gold, and reducing the amount of experience gained by the kill. Towers can also be denied, but must be below 10% health. Towers provide a large sum of money when destroyed, and denying is always preferable.

From Quiz "Defense of the Ancients"

Answer: Nether Swap

Nether Swap's range increases with level, and the spell is used by Shendelzare, the Vengeful Spirit. Another skill similar to Nether Swap is Pudge's Meat Hook, which yanks the hero to Pudge.

From Quiz "Defense of the Ancients" Hero

Answer: Enchantress

Whenever the Enchantress is attacked, she beguiles the unit into slowing its attack up to 90% at level 3. This makes it near impossible to kill as the enemy can't attack consistently.

From Quiz "DotA 2" Heroes [2]

Answer: Viper

Viper, one of the more basic heroes in terms of techniques, bases all of his attacks on range and poison. Despite his main attack and his ultimate both using different types of poisons to fire at foes though, he's also a hearty tank if built up in that way, utilizing a Nethertoxin to damage anyone who attacks him and, additionally, reduce their magic resistance. Viper is a unique character for a couple reasons, firstly for being a former pet of Pugna and secondly for being biologically unsound. For many years, the character model for Viper featured wings that functioned backwards. It wasn't until 2017 that he had a remodel that fixed his impossible wings. That said, we're still not completely sure how he wears boots, seeing as netherdrakes don't have feet.

From Quiz "DotA 2" Heroes [1]

Answer: Io

Io, introduced to "DotA 2" in 2012, but late to the original "DotA" party, is primarily used as support in a team because his unique abilities allow for him to tether to allies for extra movement and health/mana buffs and, with his ultimate, teleport himself and friendly party members anywhere on the map for a short time. As Io is a mere wisp, his only communicates in beeps and boops. Because of his need for team cohesion, map awareness, and clever handling, he's often regarded as one of the trickiest heroes to play in the entire game.

From Quiz "DotA 2" Basics

Answer: Three

The lanes of the "DotA 2" map are called the Middle Lane, the Safe Lane, and the Offlane, and each one typically sees the same heroes based on the needs of each team, but can vary from patch to patch. The Middle Lane, often containing one fighter from each team, will usually get the most experience and, thus, results in the strongest early-game core players. The Safe Lane is often taken by a core and a support player and, regardless of side, will be faced off against by the enemy team's Offlane, which has less opportunity for movement based on map layout. Strong Offlane characters are often those who can gain experience without needing to get too involved in what will likely be an unfair fight (simply based on numbers). Fortunately, a solo offlaner will often get more experience than a safe-laning duo.

From Quiz The Heroes of "Dota 2"

Answer: Riki

Lots of heroes in "Dota 2" can go invisible, but usually for a set amount of time, or under very specific conditions. Riki is unique in that he will always be invisible until he attacks something. After he attacks, he'll just have to wait a few seconds before he slips back into invisibility. Add in his ability to slow down enemies and stop them from using spells, and Riki becomes quite the assassin.

From Quiz Five Minutes to Win

Answer: Assassinate

Assassinate is the ultimate ability of the hero Sniper. He fires a deadly and almost lethal shot from long range and deals quite a lot of damage to the enemy along with stunning him for a while. Other abilities of Sniper are Shrapnel, Take Aim and Headshot. Sniper is a ranged hero. You tell Sniper that he's done a good job and call him to join the others who are battling elsewhere.

Answer: "This augurs well for many deaths."

"Pudding Pop!" is one of the responses for Storm Spirit. "One little spark and before you know it, the whole world is burning," is one of Lina's responses. "My sights are set!" is one of Sniper's responses.

From Quiz Defense of the Ancients

Answer: 6200

The Mystic staff is 2900 and the Soulbooster is 3300, giving a total of 6200. Aghanim is originally from the "Zelda III - A Link to the Past" where he was an evil Wizard.

From Quiz "Defense of the Ancients" Hero

Answer: Spiritbreaker

Nether Strike moves you next to your target doing extra damage. If you have Greater Bash learned, you will also score a Greater Bash hit. Casting range improves depending on level.

From Quiz "DotA 2" Heroes [2]

Answer: Juggenaut

At the annual International event hosted by Dota, voters find out which of the heroes they've selected (of tens of millions of votes) to receive an Immortal Arcana-- a remodel and bonus set-- and it ended up being Juggernaut in 2016 (though Zeus, Pudge, and Phantom Assassin have also won in other years). Juggernaut, an agility hero wielding blades, uses quick slashes to bring down foes, upgrading his blades with most of his techniques in order to maximize damage in a death of a thousand cuts. He also has a defensive ability in his Healing Ward, which tends to be a cosmetic fixture for players.

From Quiz "DotA 2" Heroes [1]

Answer: Ursa

While all of the other choices are Strength-based heroes, Ursa is, deceptively, an Agility-based hero with strong attacks, especially when built with lifesteal items. Most of his skills simply contribute to higher damage output, especially when his ultimate allows him to Enrage into a frenzy, buffing his existing attacks even more. Ulfsaar, as is his original name, is actually a bear, and while his ferocious attacks may be something to worry about, he doesn't have many options for attacking more than a single target at a time.

From Quiz "DotA 2" Basics

Answer: Two

In the fairness of even map layout, there are two non-Bounty rune locations, each placed in the river, both equidistant from each team's base and lanes. Games often start with claiming control of the first runes on the map (always Bounty Runes, resulting in gold for the players), but runes will regenerate every few minutes. Bounty Runes give gold, Haste Runes increase speed, Double Damage Runes affect damage output, Invisibility Runes allow for one player to disappear, Regeneration Runes refill health and mana, and Arcane Runes reduce mana costs for spells.

From Quiz The Heroes of "Dota 2"

Answer: Earthshaker

Earthshaker is a very useful hero on any team, with lots of opportunities to stun enemy heroes. One of his most famous spells is Fissure. It creates a temporary line of rock in front of Earthshaker. Any enemies caught in its way are stunned, and the rocks are impassable by anyone. They can be used to prevent any enemy from running away, or to stop an enemy from chasing Earthshaker or his allies.

From Quiz Five Minutes to Win

Answer: Thundergod's Wrath

Thundergod's Wrath is the ultimate ability of Zeus which causes a lightning bolt to strike all enemy heroes no matter where they are. It does not cause any damage to invisible units but it makes them visible for a period of time. Other abilities of Zeus are Static Field, Lightning Bolt and Arc Lightning. Zeus is a ranged hero. Since Zeus could be anywhere in the field, you ask your teammates to carry on and not worry about Zeus. He will turn up sometime. And so you keep moving on, trying to win the game.
