Some guy tryed to do the same thing awhile back but his heroes we're dumb...like really not dotaish at all....be sure to add Night Stalker and Phantom Assassin...Sand King...pudge...yeah...all the others perhaps...no made up crap....all the items from the game...You'll find a way to do it!

I personally disliked dota. Hopefully this one might change my mind~ So... are you gona incorporate similar heroes as warcraft? Same heroes for both teams or different (I'm guessing probably the same)?? Just make sure you balance it for the two sides

Okay the problem with this is going to be the item buying, the skills with the upgrades, the leveling...it is going to look like rubbish compared to WC3...why not make something original because first of all, a map like this is already out...this is going to be bad...

Another one...? That's all I have to say. Dota is overrated. And it has way too many versions.

Sorry that i could not answer earlier, but i'm not so often on.
to the questions:
Two sides have the same heroes(because if not not its difficult do balance and then they are less).
I made no items but i have already a system to levelup and upgrade the heroes.
And sure i'll balance it very well (not the greatest problem ).

Thats like insulting your own map (not this one, yours bear).
Yea, whats with this dota fad???
Play Wc3 if ya wanna play dota, dont try to bring it to sc.
But do what you want. Im not the boss of you.

No, what I meant was that this map has 18 heroes, but both sides will be able to use them all? The heroes don't even have their own special abilities, and it sounds like SolidFake is going to use the normal StarCraft abilities. The only items he's using are healing items (potion, mana potion).
Solid, I recommend changing the name of the game to something original and not DotA (even I'm changing my maps name, but still probably going to use DotA heroes).

Maybe change it to a Dota-like map but not make it called DotA, kinda like bear said.
And add so more cool stuff to it. How 'bout some more special abilities/features?

I have already a good name but i won't tell you!
I can't add selfmade abilities, because i have so too stuff much on the map.
I have about 8 Items,4 difficulty levels and two modi which i'm proud about.

"The dota principe for Starcraft! Do I have to say more?"
The DOTA Principle does not work on Starcraft. You can't have custom units, no inventory, no spells... no levels.. It just isn't complex enough to work.

If your making this for Starcraft instead of ripping off the WarCraft one why don't the concept of the Warcraft map and get creative.
Your own name for it?
Different concept all together?
What kinds of spells?
There is a huge list there is just 3, why do you even bother just saying "Dota for SC" like come on, its not hard to think of a new name and do some thinking for yourself.

Actually no. It's quite simple... conceptually, anyway. It's just a fairly new concept, roughly following the AoS/DotA template (that gametype needs a proper name, methinks).

You basically buy items to increase your stats. You then go down one of the three paths and push the other team back into their main base, you then destroy the unit spawn buildings and/or destroy their "capital" building.
Personally, I just don't see SC ever having any good hero based UMS maps like WC3 has.

When will people stop trying to port DotA to Starcraft? Hell, it already has a hero that uses the Hydralisk model.
DotA isn't DotA without Meat Hook, and I'd love to see that one done
But in all honestly, any SC DotA map will be overly bland and a bare dissappointment compared to the real game.

I don't want to bring the hole dota to Starcraft...
The interesting in dota is the concept, the ideas!
It doesn't matter if it's not like the real dota.
It is quite impossible to create a real dota for Sc.
I only like the quest to make a dota as good as possible!
It shouldn't be 1:1 to WC3 dota, it only has to have ground
concept and should make fun!

All DotA concepts were stolen from StarCraft's Aeon of Strife, so it's more proper to call it AoS instead of DotA, right?

Why dont you just make the map and then argue over it .
