But now in DoTA AllStars the Hidden Shop is already on the both side of the team's forest.

Ones which were highlighted with color yellow is the Hidden shop placed on both team's forests.

Stats Attribute

So what in the hell am I talking about here --'stats attribute?!' Does it have something to do with playing the game?

Heroes usually have these, specifically strength, agility and intelligence. Whenever these primary attributes is being raised it may give a hero a bonus attack points.

Strength:
Increases hp and hit points regeneration

Agility:
Increses defense and attack speed

Intelligence:
Increases mana and mana regeneration

wtf When an ability is used, all cooldowns are reset and your mana is set to full. Certain triggered abilities will seem as if they have no cooldown, but will not have any effect until the time which it would normally be cooled down has passed. (One example is Borrowed Time)

It must be entered in the first 15 seconds, seperately.

Our favorite game just keeps on getting better and better. No doubt, this is the reason why we all love it. Except for the excitement this game holds for its players, it has always something stored for us.

We really can't get enough with playing it. Just after DOTA Allstars v6.45 was released, now we can already have some of its upgrade --DOTA Allstars v6.46 is already out. . . exciting huh!

Hint: Getting Woods for the Recipe Item

dota.ph@gmail.com (dota-ph||Catching Up with the Defense of the Ancients) — Fri, 03 Aug 2007 15:37:00 +0000

Woods are nothing! Nothing as in it doesn't have any significant role in DOTA Allstars gameplay. If you happen to see wood on a recipe scroll you might as well ignore it. An item automatically converts into the item once its parts which are needed for a certain recipe is in the same inventory.

Getting to know your DOTA

dota.ph@gmail.com (dota-ph||Catching Up with the Defense of the Ancients) — Thu, 02 Aug 2007 17:58:00 +0000

DOTA which we players prefer calling it is actually a custom map based on Aeon of Strife (AOS) map on Starcraft through Blizzard Map Editor. It was intentionally for Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos having an expansion pack of Warcraft:III The Frozen Throne. Now DOTA is popularly known of its latest
map version -- DOTA Allstars.

This is a game having two opposing sides. Players must select only one hero, not to mention its own skills, strength and weakness. The main goal here will be to destroy the main structure of the opposing team which is called Sentinel. Sentinel is the world tree or the scourge in other words the Frozen Throne. In acquiring such victory, player(s) must have his hero upgraded. This may be through defeating its enemies which may supply gold and experience points.

There are fundamental attributes each heroes such as strength, agility and intelligence (primary attribute).

There are three abilities which heroes can learn and also an ultimate special ability in all versions.

There are pretty neat variants DOTA has:
A. DotA Allstars

B. Gamebox DotA

C. DotA Outland

D. DotA Darkness Falls

E. DotA Classic

F. DotA Extreme

G. 6v6 DotA (This map was not official)

H. DotA Rumble
- A variant of DotA with only one lane (through the middle), with towers scattered throughout.

I. DotA: Danite's Hell
- A variant of DotA in which each hero is missing its normal magic abilities. Instead, abilities are randomly assigned from the pool of all possible abilities for heroes on the team (that is, the Scourge or Sentinel).
