History
Defense of the Ancients is an AoS(Aeon of Strife) style map for Warcraft 3 and it's expansion, The Frozen Throne. Many different developers contributed to the original versions of the map and the original creator is still disputed. However, the most well known is Eul, who was immortalized in the Allstars version. Allstars was created for the Frozen Throne expansion and is a "greatest hits" version of many older versions. The lead developer, Guinsoo, implemented what he felt were the best ideas from several of the other versions of DotA. Thus the name Allstars represents that it is the best work of several other developers. Currently IceFrog is the developer of DotA Allstars.
