Playdota.com

This is the main Dota website since Dota-Allstars.com remained into the possession of someone else than the Dota founder, Icefrog.

Having cool graphics, the website playdota.com contains good guides, informations about the heroes/items from the game, tools, forums, etc.

Others interesting websites regarding dota during the time was dotaportal.com, dotawarcraft.info, and many more.

What playdota.com is missing is a pro design.

Getdota.com

Getdota.com appeared after dota-allstars.com was launched and has been the dota maps download center.

The website never had the maps, but was just linked to different external servers where people could download the map.

Getdota.com had some design changes, the first version was a very poor in design terms, and now there is the second one, which looks better.

Below there are screenshots showing how getdota.com looked during the past years, 2006, 2007 and 2008-today.

The history of the Dota map

Dota appeared in 2005 and was developed by Icefrog, as far as I know I exchanged some emails with him and he is a nice person.

During the years, they had the main website on dota-allstars.com and it was changed to playdota.com.

Also the download area was getdota.com, along with getdota.org and getdota.net.

Getdota.info is a backup to getdota.com keeping all the maps ready for download.

The map has evolved since those early years, making it the most popular warcraft 3 map, drawing player from the original “pg” games from battle.net, or any private servers they were playing.

The graphics improved, mostly changing the terrains, spells, etc, and new heroes and items were added into the game.

Some Dota clones appeared like heroes of  newerth, demigod, etc.

But on competition Dota is keeping its success, and is played worldwide more than the original Warcraft 3 multiplayer games.
