I want to talk about Warcraft three heroes that didn’t get ported to dota or was taken out of dota 1 before Dota 2’s release. Like the frost wolf named Fenrir above.
The dota 1 development team use to have videoes of heroes they were working on but stopped when blurpi stopped making videos a list of heroes they planned is below
Heroes in trailer videos
- frost wolf
- Shadow wolf
- Rogue
- Stormshaker
- Shadow dancer
- Kodobeast rider
- Mortar team
- Dragon hawk rider
- Storm chaser
- Dragonspawn
- Shade
- Acolyte
Heroes that never made it to Dota 1 or were replaced or taken out before Dota 2
- Elder shaman
- Night crawler
- Hunger essence
- Mandrake
- High priest
- Final disciple
- Void walker
- Hawkeye
- Gryphon rider
- Fel knight
- Mountain king
- Blood mage
- Paladin
- Chieftain
- Headhunter ( changed into troll)
- Wind rider
- Grunt (should be named something different like barbarian)
- Demon hunter (Might be antimage.)
- Hyppogryph
- Ancient of lore
- Death knight
- Acolyte
- Gargoyle
- Frost wyrm ( might be winter wyvern)
- Infernal

Some of the heroes had ideas that were replaced because of bugs like storm shaker…. storm shaker had fissure with the artwork of ship wreckage in a line. And voidwalker had the art work of lifting a unit in the air with a dark circle

Heroes based on one big spell idea
- crystals revolve around a hero and when you shoot it the crystal slows enemies in the area. you or an ally can shoot the crystal
- theres like six different heroes that become stronger when an enemy uses a spell or has too much mana
- freeze an enemy passively when you attack them
- Sniper healing allies when he or she shoots an enemy
- vampiric aura that heals surrounding allies when the hero attacks
- vampiric aura that heals a target when allies attack
- have a shield that absorbs mana from enemies
- a passive that ministuns when an enemy or ally casts an ability
- spark wraith that attacks an enemy when they come near the hero instead of the area
- i want this for axe to be honest it will make rubick his ally but to force people to channel and take damage if they move.
- want this for elder titan or bane or puck but acid spray with the animation of spirits doing battle
- five heroes that function passively like aghnims for their ultimate i just dont know if the hero should provide both teams with new abilities
- want this for brewmaster but spitting out rocks while spinning in a circle
other ideas
points with announcements keeping track of everything in the game instead of just kills. like saving people, letting them go, stun lock, healing,
