Having only one courier back then was one of the things we can tell our children that they have a better life than us for those that didn't experience it.
one of the casters suit up as roshan and explaining where he lived over the ages. being annoyed by all the home invaders (slacks as CM enter the pit and hit him once).
As a Supp/Offlane, I miss the side shop. Being able to build Arcane boots without risking your life/waiting for courier is a blessing as a support. Also, sneakily buying Blink Dagger at the side shop has helped me escape multiple deaths, and making the safe lane cry with dagger + echo at 9-10mins lmao
Damn i feel old Back in the dota 1 days, giving control of the courier also meant giving control of your hero (xD) When the courier died, the items it carried would drop to the ground and could be destroyed by opponent (ZSMJ famously lost a sacred relic like that) The side shop had like only 3 items at the beginning, and one of these 3 was Bottle. You had to manually buy each component of an item to assemble it, and component were split into like 10 different shops displaying a dozen items each Trees would respawn every 5 (or 10?) minutes no matter what, do you could get stuck in the trees if you walked by as they respawned. Neutrals left corpses after dying, and those corpses would block the camps from respawning. Glyph didn't make buildings immune to damage (let alone the creeps), instead it would give +999999 armor so you could still destroy a tower 1 damage at a time Dota 2 is definitly a better game I predict outposts to be removed next, nobody seem to care about them, i don't even know what they do
outposts might not be the best idea, I don't know, I haven't studies the idea well enough. But what I do know is that they offer some other thing than just "highground" inside of jungles that can make a team superior to the other. I don't think they're broken, and usually when something isn't strictly broken, it will always remain in dota. That's how it is.
the good ol' days. "We got no courier guys. Somebody buy" *nobody buys it* *carry then buys it, half heartedly* "Please support go back to base to activate it, or die and activate it" *nobody dies or goes back for over 10 min* Sigh.
I started to play dota 2 again recently and I was quite surprised to find the side shops removed, multiple couriers, outposts, neutral items, a new place for Rosh, and such.
I still remember the old Roshan, and also the creep mountain, I loved pulling the creeps there as Dark Seer ♥ Oh memories of old, I tried getting back into Dota and got massive whiplash from the map being so different, amongst many other things.
@@leipein Well it was fun to me because a lot of people would argue over it and also fight over who is gonna buy the flying courier. When I'm gaming I like chaos better for some reason
Two months ago I made a reddit post about the changes that happened from every single TI to the next. Essentially, the number of significant changes from TI9 to TI10 was about the same as the number for everything before that. The title of the post was "Changes between TIs" if anyone's interested.
Roshan had 3 different locations over the time. One was where the iconic "nobody has ever done that in the history of dota" moment happened, one was where the iconic "it's a disastah" moment happened and lastly, where he is located rn where some iconic plays also happened like OG vs LGD game 5 where ana's ember won them the fight after buying back
Did no one remember when there only one bounty rune spawn, and the one pick it get the gold?? I really miss that, lvl 1 rune war is always happens, and taking bounty as support is bound to get blamed.
I know this video is a bit older now, but I wanted to add some context to the multiple couriers. This was originally introduced in HoN (Heroes of Newerth) as a way to make the game less toxic and easier. HoN was significantly more punishing than Dota 2, in that the average GPM of a free farming carry was about 350, and kills were significantly less gold. It would be common for supports to end the game with boots, bracer, wand and nothing else, as Obs and Sent wards both cost gold (100 each) and killing wards did not give gold. This meant that the laning phase was incredibly challenging and hugely impactful to the outcome of the match. In Dota 2 there was a saying "the laning phase doesn't matter" because there were so many ways to recover if you died a few times in the lane. HoN did not have those comeback mechanics (it had a few but they were less impactful) so laning was everything. As an aside, jungle creeps were significantly stronger and not accessible to most heroes without lifesteal early on. When laning in Dota 2 - you generally purchase items and consumables. Consumables being healing items like potions etc. When there was only 1 courier, you could not get more items to your lane for a very long time. This means that heroes which scale with levels were significantly stronger than heroes which scale with items. It also meant that you could 100% shut down a carry. This means, if you are hurt, you must go back to the base. You could not send out more items to heal up. This would lead to you having less experience, and less gold. When multiple couriers were introduced the whole game shifted in HoN - and Dota 2 followed suit. The idea now was to continually transfer healing items to your lane so you can get all of the experience and continue to last hit creeps. If the enemies use all their mana, you send out 2 potions and heal right back up. This change was originally so impactful that teams were trying to abuse it by sharing consumables. This has been deemed too powerful and nerfs across the board have happened. Buying your mid a bottle, then sending out your own regen isn't possible due to bottle prices increase. Giving tangos have cooldowns, mana potions last longer so they are easier to remove, etc. Overall I personally think it was a good change for the game. Yes, it makes the game easier. Yes, there's no value to killing the enemy couriers now (previously if you killed the 1 courier their whole team couldn't use it). And Yes - it makes the game much more friendly. The toxicity level for the couriers was crazy, and I'm glad we each get our own now.
lol the 1 cour brought back ptsd memories I remember half the times nobody would even buy that 1 cour and it would be ''okay whoever dies first buys cour'' good times
Having 1 courier for a whole team is hard specially when you have a toxic teammates fighting for cour and they will feed the cour so you wont get your items😆
Bruh I remember, I was snowballing early as undying give my carry free lane. Proceed to aura item for siege tower and guess what, one toxic teammate that I dont know who drop my items in courier in middle of the lane
I really think side shop is nice, getting runes and run there to get stick or the axe, when courier was still limited, and also shrines, it gave you heal so you didn't have to go back all the way. These little things add more strategic aspects to the game. Oh and you forget the ES perma stun outpost.
I remember back when from side shop you could buy a ring of regen and sell it before 10 seconds and do it again. It was basically a micro intensive regen tripling tactic. Good days.
I still remember in my past when they existed like side shop, one courier, shrine and old map. Now removed them..so rip 😭. Oh yes they said right coz many toxic want to control the courier to feed them like that. We can't do coz no one sent their item when the courier died.
"who was the guy who invented shrines, tell me right now" Said Puppey, smilingly, while planning a murder in broad daylight. Also, sideshop. Remember being able to buy 6 tangoes, slippers, stout shield. And then buy quelling on sideshop. Memories.
Actually, I missed the single courier day. Yes it is true that courier used to be object of abuse in pub games, but also that one is making every competitive games needs to have tight schedule on using it, also make it more scarier when used as baiting / vision tool. Nowadays killing courier have no prestige at all, and winning factor only decided by the draft and how much you succeeded / fucked up when execute the planned strategy.
I wish we could play the old patches, as a support player I really like the first time neutral items were added. Spamming wards and sentries and still getting items to be tanky was so good
I remember when we're too far ahead in dota 1 sniper can literally destroy enemy fountain. We also buy orbs that would give mana to couriers and buy dagons and the couriers can use those dagons. Good times.
Back in the day in DotA 1, where Radiant Ancient's position placed at bottom instead of center. Which makes Dire Team who wants to end the game faster, to push Bottom Lane instead of straightpush Middle Lane.
Dude, side shop is a really useful laning tools early game, it sells essential early item like almost all component for boots, back then you can also buy couple of regen item like ring of health or void stone to sell and resell it to get a little bit more regen while you in lane. Side shop gives you immediate powerspike when your enemy least expected.
Ah I remember when there was one courier. Someone would but tome and send them using courier and then I control the courier to give me the tome. Good times.
Hope one day the side shop comes back. Sage mask and wand are specific items depending on what heros you are against. By the time courrier brings you wand pa has already casted 3 daggers.
Pick heroes with the little shops at the top. Rosh pit being closer to Scourge, pull camps repositioning, 7.00 map overhaul. Icefrog had been working DotA for almost 2 decades now. I don't even remember all of that changes any more.
When you’re such an ancient dota player that all these examples read to me more like a changelog of things that are different now than a look into the past…
The only reason I play offlane instead of mid lane is side shop, now they're gone. Ahh... I always love to get dagger or morbid mask without waiting courier to deliver it
Una locura todo, hace 2 años que no juego dota, el último cambio que ví fue el de las tiendas laterales, entré a jugar y estaba perdido. El courier, que recuerdos cuando el support lo compraba y siempre había un desadaptado que lo mandaba hacie el enemigo. Los wards y sentrys que ahora son gratis. Los shrines siempre me parecieron una mala idea, y me imagino que para los profesionales debió ser un dolor de cabeza. Pero que bueno que un juego esté en constante cambio y aunque ya no lo juego disfruto viendo los torneos. ❤️
I remember one play in one of the TIs where this player was getting ganked, he already bought a blink in his stash, he walked to the side shop, sold it, bought it from the side shop, blinked and TP away.
When I started to play dota 2, we had a small mini game when we started finding a match. It is a quiz to how to “build” a item and it had a score on it. At that time, I just came from warcraft and gad no problem 😌
Oh the single courier. Some games we didn't even had a courier or nobody bothered it to upgrade to a flying one. Not mentioning the fight who would get their items first. Or what about courier feeding.
Not one mention of Rosh getting a new house? :c Also side shop was super cool. I remember getting recipe for Midas on courier, and while it flew out grabbing the other 500 Gold for the glove to instantly combine it at the sideshop
I miss arguing with the team over the courier, people spam controlling the courier towards the enemy as you spam control it back to safety. Fun old times.
I liked the side shop. It's about the only thing i didn't see a reason to be removed and i still miss it to this day. If they made it so that it only had some small components it'd be a welcome addition to not have to wait for the courier every time.
4:00 hes damn right, back then only mid can use couriers not even carry can bother midlaner. And when cour can refill bottle from fountain and midlaner just using it like 10 times just to refill their bottle
looking back now it feels crazy we used to share just one courier somebody had to buy it (usually the support) and also upgrade it to make it fly you could also buy many couriers it took just one toxic guy to buy many couriers and feed them to the enemy to ruin everyone's game you could also steal somebodies tome of knowledge on the courier individual couriers is probably the best thing to happen to dota in a long time
Tbh, as support player pos 4 I really love the shrines especially the one near the Mid radiant tower coz I can keep my mid from gank like Sniper and Zeus mid with no escape ability.
Having 5 couriers, and an extra slot for TP plus 3 backpacks are a few of the best modifications to the game.

i wished they would also talk about the rosh pit changes over the years.
i remember the days when you accidentally press deliver in the courier you'd say reuse to that person who uses the courier first
Oh the single courier. Some games we didn't even had a courier or nobody bothered it to upgrade to a flying one. Not mentioning the fight who would get their items first. Or what about courier feeding.
Not one mention of Rosh getting a new house? :c
Also side shop was super cool. I remember getting recipe for Midas on courier, and while it flew out grabbing the other 500 Gold for the glove to instantly combine it at the sideshop
Love the series.
This series so good
I love this!
I still remember sharing unit control to give courier to other members
I miss arguing with the team over the courier, people spam controlling the courier towards the enemy as you spam control it back to safety. Fun old times.
I liked the side shop. It's about the only thing i didn't see a reason to be removed and i still miss it to this day. If they made it so that it only had some small components it'd be a welcome addition to not have to wait for the courier every time.
4:00 hes damn right, back then only mid can use couriers not even carry can bother midlaner. And when cour can refill bottle from fountain and midlaner just using it like 10 times just to refill their bottle
i thank god every day that the one courier was turned into 5
looking back now it feels crazy we used to share just one courier
somebody had to buy it (usually the support) and also upgrade it to make it fly
you could also buy many couriers
it took just one toxic guy to buy many couriers and feed them to the enemy to ruin everyone's game
you could also steal somebodies tome of knowledge on the courier
individual couriers is probably the best thing to happen to dota in a long time
i feel like they'll do a patch where they bring this all back.
imagine shrines outposts and side shops returned in one patch.
Tbh, as support player pos 4 I really love the shrines especially the one near the Mid radiant tower coz I can keep my mid from gank like Sniper and Zeus mid with no escape ability.
I remember buying a ring of health at the side shop for a bit of hp then selling it again afterwards.
Woaw! Starting with Elgar Cello Concerto, noice
