Yo Slacks, haven't seen the video yet but considering your last Loregasms: Thanks for putting that much effort and heart into such a neglected part of this beatiful game. High quality content without excessive memeing, really appreciated
Das Die Der Erik I second this.
DotA2 lore can be so rich and interesting.
I wish Valve put more effort into the lore of it's world.
At least we have Slacks.
You should've seen the amount of work the Slacks patreon community put together while he was working on this episode. You'd be surprised at the sheer amount of lore and conspiracies you can squeeze out from what litte lore we know
Why would you not just comment that after you have seen the video?
mynameisaichlinn Have watched the video by now, wouldn't change anything said in the comment
Thats what I mean. So why wouldn't you just wait until the video was done. Why would you need to comment on a video you hadn't seen?
To expand on the whole "experience make you a god" thing, we are actually told this through the tome of knowledge. As most of you know, its a book this gives you experience, but you can also see that this item says "That which raises beast to man and man to god." This pretty much confirms that theory, good job! Thanks for putting your time into these videos, I really love learning about all of the lore behind DotA.
hey slacks read this
slacks, I have severe bronchitis right now and you can't imagine how much seeing this on my sub feed made me smile
Best of luck friend
daniel escobedo a
I can't belive Slacks is going to get away with naming the Dota planet after his dog.
EnderGraff1 Well Rosh is named after a fucking bowling ball
Is it actually cannon? If not it should be
How's it been four years later bruh
The death god is IceFrog he brings balance to Dota and makes imposible heroes like ES or MK to become gods with nerfs
IKR
@Floki Thus BEHOLD! THE POWER OF THE DEATH GOD, ICE FROG! KILLING HEROS LEFT AND RIGHT, OH WHATS THAT? THIS HERO MOVES 1 MOVEMENT SPEED FASTER THAN THAT ONE, AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA NERFED INTO THE CHASM!
the opening gives me a goosebumps
Been waiting for this Loregasm since the last one and it hasn't disappointed me at all, the quality of these videos are so good and I await for the next one. Haven't known much about the Dota2 Lore since the first episode of this series and since then I feel like there is so much more to know than just playing. This really is an awesome series you're making Slacks
Tigernater Yes. Funny how there is so much more to cover. And we haven't even gotten to how magic is governed!
That blood god part, The Flayed Twins, was heavy.
I was watching TV, then suddenly my phone just buzzed. Saw the notification bar and instantly tapped it right away! That's how hyped you made me and many others with this series Slacks.
Exalmer Kiros yass
ye boiiiiiii
so its by the dead god's influence that heroes who go "beyond godlike" are killed for huge bounties and basically bought down to human levels??
Sidhant Madan logically yes. I agree. The war of the ancients limits the influence of even the dead god himself in preventing people from ascending godhood.
no. he contradicted himself by saying the dead god is nihilistic and then argue that he has some purpose whatsoever. this guy is out of his depth with this video. suggestive narrative is a no no for spiritual topics that are abstract if you want to break them down and explain stuff.
seems likely
I'm early here to say again..
slacks is icefrog
And i'm here to say...
*Invoker is Carl...*
@@geromlarayos6696 Kail! 😑
These just keep getting better Slacks like seriously. Don't stop. God damn.
I stopped playing dota for a few months now but god bless these vids I am stoked when I see them
Damn slack, I can easily tell that your editings on this Loregasm is so much better than the previous, more pls!
just in time before i sleep. thanks slacks 😊
the intro getting better and better through each episode :D
these intro's are amazing actually
I love hearing the Doom 2016 music in the background! Really fits nicely to the evil and dark parts.
Slacks-- the most quotable and (not so obviously) intelligent Dota 2 content creator. Doesn't talk down to viewers(unless being sarcastic), intelligent, hilarious, clever, and DANG, HAVE YOU SCENE THAT BEAUTIFUL SQUIDWARD CHIN?! It has truly been an honor to watch the guy for more than a year.
"YOU MUST PLAY 'I STAPLE TAPEWORMS ON MY PENIS' FOR THOS GROSS SIN" spam went unpunished in the chat of his last stream, the dude is patient.
Also, his suits make him look chubby until he slaps a black shirt on. It's creepy, yet intriguing.
EDIT: The Dead god lore was fantastic. That was an incredible explanation! The Head canon is what I hope is canon. A necessity that balances out the most powerful from oppressing the world. Truly, not just a villain, but an equalizer.
Man, thanks a whole lot Slacks.
You give us what the other part of the DotA2 community wants, and that's lore.
A lot of this is also theorized, but Valve doesn't give us much to work with nore gives us any solid lore, so your loregasms have been fucking fantastic.
You have been a great asset to the competitive scene with your antics during the Majors and whatnot, along with providing the community with information on the DotA2 world.
I think I speak for the majority of us when I say: Thank you and thank everyone who puts effort into these videos.
I'm officially supporting you on Patreon.
"We need our version of the scourge... Quick a name!" " the uhmmm d...durge?"
a Dirge is a funeral song.
your videos are getting better and better. i have never been this hype about back stories of a game. you made my day complete slacks. the content of the vids are just outstanding.
I think slacks deserve a hero in dota, his name should be keeper of archronicus
He didn't even got away with having his self designed Omniknight arcana set designed by Anuxinamoon (Stephanie Everett) because even the rough draft couldn't even be taken seriously, why would you think GAyBE_N and our former lord and savior icefrog would concede to having a new dotes 2 hero designed after just one of their employee? #riddlemethat
that god of war music in venge's story was lit
Selemene commands, I must watch all the Loregasm videos
I love the God of War music in the background... makes the video much more enjoyable
Very nice editting in this one
Want more of these "Loregasms" sooner!!. Please continue to update this series at least every month.
just got home
open phone
connect to wifi
notif about loregasm
this mad my day
I absolutely love these video's. The artwork, the music, the nice storytelling. And it gives some depth into the heroes, making them more enjoyable to play, almost like there's some deeper meaning to the game. Thank you, Slacks.
*another one*
I have waited since Loregasm 4! Thank you!
Dat DOOM soundtrack
Kris McMillan Well it did its job right by giving a sense of dread when it started
Loregasm is earned you another subscriber. These are awesome.
Make a lore about the 3 spirits
And about the story of the elementals like leshrac and spirit breaker
The wind outside my window just blew really ominously as the intro music hit its crescendo. It really surprised me XD
If Radiant is mind, Dire is body, is the omniscience spirit? Because of all the "consciousness tethering" and the ability to make you immune to attacks of the body (physical damage immunity a la Guardian Angel) and attacks of the mind (a la Repel) maybe omniscience is the Ancient of Spirit.
makes sense
What about arc warden ?
He's like a bastard child, no one cares or remembers him, because he is just an extremely tiny fraction of the promordial mind that isn't all that relevant.
I swear after watching slack's loregasms i find a deeper meaning to play dota, and appreciate it even more every single second I'm in game now. It's not just a game, it's a way of life
lol invoker name is Carl lul
"dad....stop"
actually kael, it was even the real name in wc3
Körmendy Mátyás WC3 lore is different from dota2.
Akshay Sharma yeah carl the biggest narsist in game
Akshay Sharma kael
Thank you Slacks. Please keep posting these type of videos. it gives meaning to why we love this game so much :)
"Carl, is that you?"
lmao
oh damn, death god stopping beings from turning into gods sounds neat af
nah
instaclicked i love you slacks pls upload these more often
The omniscience's artwork really reminds me of Dominion Authority from overlord . Great video btw
I have a Theorie about Selemene that I wanted to pitch already. This video is propably the best place to pitch it from.
I recently looked through some dota lore. And looking up Selemene I got an idea.
Could selemene be the radiant?
Not as be on the radiants side but radiant itsself.
Selemene's shrine is built around a piece of moon that fell from the sky. So very propably its an anchient infested piece of rock that fell at the mad moon's explosion. But it must be radiant infested as the moonlight forest still stands bright and hasnt been burnt like dire would have its forests. Not to mention radiants signature is the colour blue, like moonlight, and lushes forests. Not to mention radiant is the one of the two ancients whos more spiritual and brainwashy of the two. So it would fit it to have a cult like the dark moon order.
The argument against this is that a moon still seems to exist even with the man moon being broken and selemene said to be the godess of the remaining moon... now though... i have a theory.
The dark moon order has one quest aside serving selemene. That is to prevent "dark moon" A cataclysmic event. Yet they have rivals. The dark moon horde, who want to cause the dark moon to happen.
My theory is this. The dark moon event DID happen! Its the mad moons explosion.
But there is still a second moon! Selemene's moon.
What if the debris of themad moon didnt only hit the planet, but the second moon as well? Turning it into a second mad moon on which the ancients fight for controll like they did on the mad moon? Meanwhile they have their subordinates on the planet fight the dota battles for them.
Radiant however made a smart move in the hope to gain controll of the remaining moon. And created the dark moon order. They are people, invluenced by radiant, who pray for selemene, who is radiant in disguise, to power up radiant on its battle on the second moon against dire. This gives radiant a decissive advantage and could make it win the remaining moon for itsself.
Dire, not liking this of corse but unable to make its own moon cult, created the datk moon horde with the intention to disrupt the dark moon order so radiant and dire will rip the remaining moon appart again just like the first mad moon. Thus causing a second dark moon event and taking that possible advantage of having its own sole controlled celestial body, away from the radiant.
This leaves us maybe with an interesting additional conclusion.
What if one of the many battlefields of dota, or maybe only battlefield of dota, is the very forest that Selemene's temple is hidden in? What if the radiant base is the Temple of mene?!
It could be afterall. Dire is not know for its forests, yet their map side is also full of trees.
The dota map could be the eternal battle in the Nightsilver Woods. Luna and Miranas home and the location of the Temple of mene.
Why isnt luna and mirana there always you ask then?
Well... The dark moon horde once used a unique arcane spell to make the entire dark moon order fall asleep. The legend though is that 5 champions defended the Temple on the orders place to stop the dark hord from taking it, until the spell was lifted.
Who sais that happened only once?
5 champions defending, who are neither luna or mirana... does sound familiar.
And luna and mirana sometimes not both being on the field but only one of them? They are rivals. Tgey would want all the glory for selemene for themselves and not the other. So they might often just....forget to mention to eachother that the temple needs defending.
Only flaw in this theory is that i have bo explenation to why the fighting continues when radiance looses.
Only explenation i have s that theres multiple shrines that the dire keeps mistaking for the actual temple and never gets tothe actual temple of mene. But the lore only mentions One shrine and One temple.
Anyway. My main headcannon is that Selemene is not her own thing but the Radiant in disguise
What do you guys all think?
Ethribin wow nice theory
What I think is interesting is LUNA is the hero who introduces you to DotA.
finally another loregasm..been waiting a month for this thing
sick intro bruh
I'm so excited whenever one of these come out. Thank Slacks!
1 LOREGASM/VAVLE EVENT.
love this series, just found it and having so many "ohhhhh thats why" moments when thinking of item sets
i love you
I have waited so long for a new vid man thank you!
Isn't Arc Warden the 3rd ancient?
I thank thee noble sir
do video about kunkka vs tidehunter and other nemesis and their connection with each other slacks will ya? [-_-]
Litterly his first Loregasm video is about Kunkka and tidehunter
holy shit dude props on the intro, amazing improvement, keep up the good work

Thanks!
PANKEK
Ajean Shuaa The snek
Never clicked a vid so fast, your a great person slacks, caring about lore as much as the game, love this series, love your headcannons, id shoot em everywhere, and i love your research, it really helps secure my thoughts since theres clues everywhere. Items, hero ability flavor texts, items, comics, so many! Loregasm galore indeed!
Also has anyone ever noticed that there are dozens of versions of hell as well? The hell that terrorblade once called home before his capture, a hell that lion has been to and back and back to hell and back (love that dialogue), and could the labrynth of souls that visage oversees be a form of hell or another punishment from hell. It has also been theorized or maybe its true that razor works with visage although with distaste?
i would like you to make this into a spin off series of loregasm, basically telling us about god in dota2 lore, overall i love this loregasm series so much
I love these videos! They are such a welcome change from all the gameplay channels, and your headcannon makes a lot of sense! Keep these up, they're a great idea!
I don't know how many times I have watched the intro over and over again. That is actually the funniest shit ever...
please do a part 2 of this, it was awesome and you've missed so many gods.
I love every single one of these, Loregasms are so much fun to listen too!
I think the Fundamentals would be a good topic for a future loregasm , great work as usual slacks
dude i dont know why but these loregasm vids are long but i still love it
The amount of work is... inspiring. Thanks :)
another loregasm!! been waiting for this!
Absolutely wonderful work. Art looked really nice, editing was well done, and the whole thing was interesting to listen. Great work indeed, i really love this series!
I see a loregasm video by Slacks and my day just got better !
Nice choice putting Gods Bound by Rules as a song in this one
Love these videos Slacks, can feel the love in these
Just keep making such loregasms..you are doin great
Please do a whole series of this God's and Godess!
CARL IS THAT YOU?!? - and I proceeded to die due to laugh suffocation
"carl is that you?"
Tbh that intro is just amazing
See intro => like
*AN ADVENTURE INTO THE LOOOOOOOORE*
damn,watched three of these and I am hooked
The artworks are really amazing!
I found it funny how some responses of Undying meeting some allies are a bunch of references to the L4D franchise.
this series is so great
Been 4 years still waiting for the rest
Its been a hard day thanks for this Slacks
i got goosebumps when i heard agnus dei, amazing stuff Slacks
The goddess Nyx! Instead of reaching out to humans to gain followers, Nyx just kinda started an ant farm. Somehow related to Lion (must earn her grace) and Abaddon (gets assassins sent after him).
Really excited to see your Loregasm cover of the Wisp arcana xd
I always have a great time watching these videos. Keep doing what you are doing sir. Highly appreciate your videos!!!!
Slacks! I love this series! One little advice! Make sure you compress your vocals and bring the levels up a bit. The volume fluctuates quite a bit!
Nice to see you are using the lizard men temple cities in this for blood seeker.
Awesome video Slacks, as always. I love your lore videos. Finally some good Dota 2 Lore videos. Thank you
these lores are a blast keep up the good work
i wish there were animated shorts on the lore for each character.
this was pretty awesome! please do a video on the lore about the demons like sf,tb, doom etc.
Shadow demon
I love the God of War soundtracks used in this video
Waited so long for this!
when slack upload loregasm "MUST WATCHHHHHHH!!!!"
