Bonus Boss is a disambiguation


We are only down to Arc Warden and Abyssal Underlord (and possibly the BonusBoss Sun Wukong) for the old DOTA veteran heroes. Once they are ported, Valve would need to add brand new heroes. Let's use this WMG as our guessing pool: What new heroes will be featured later once the crews are together? With the new revamped lore, it would be... interesting.

** His status as a monk possibly suggests that his powers draw from LifeEnergy, or something equivalent, and that abilities using them are more or less KiAttacks. This would imply that his power stems from physical mastery, and not magic.

* Deathball: His ultimate ability, he rolls up into a ball that temporarily grants him the ability to walk through terrain and damage enemies on collision, possibly while slowing or stunning them in the progress. He can move freely in this form, but cannot stop while rolling.

[[WMG: Terrorblade used to be a human]]
Along with Anti-Mage who may or may not be his brother, he was a Tuskaturi monk. But unlike Anti-Mage, he wasn't so lucky, when the Demons came raiding. So while he was raised from the dead and corrupted by the Dead God's priesthood, he retained the hatred for the demons that slaughtered him. So after thinning his own rank one time too much, he was sent to double hell, and the rest is history.

** On the other side, Sven has these 4 fundamental forces in a way. Storm Bolt, as the name says is EM force, Cleave makes sense if you oppose strong force, Warcry is some some sort of RADIOactive power and God Strength, well gravity is also known as relativity. Also, Omniknight works in a similar way, but the "Religious" (His skills are named: Purificating Light, Repel, Degen Aura, Guardian Angel) sort of stuff, rather than Sven "SCIENCE!".

[[WMG: Guesses on French Pangolin Musketeer's Abilities]]
* Stylish Jump: Similar to Mirana's Leap, Musketeer leaps to bypass terrain and trees. Unlike Mirana's leap, the Musketeer's jump has a lower range but allows him to target his jump point.
* Evasive Maneuvers: Grants him bonus movement speed and evasion when activated, allowing him to avoid attacks and then use the next ability once he's within range.
* Skillful Cut: He skillfully cuts an enemy unit, damaging them while inflicting Disarm and Break in the progress.
* Deathball: His ultimate ability, he rolls up into a ball that temporarily grants him the ability to walk through terrain and damage enemies on collision, possibly while slowing or stunning them in the progress. He can move freely in this form, but cannot stop while rolling.

Since Enigma himself is obviously Gravity, this leaves Wisp to be Electromagnetism.

Given that he is the heat death of the universe and that even the Fundamentals consider him old, it's not farfetched to think that Ancient Apparition may have ended the other universe, making way for the new Dota 2 universe.

In All-Stars, Riki's ''Smoke Screen'' was required to summon Monkey King in the 6.79 quest. Monkey King will reference this in Dota 2 as a response line for meeting Riki, most likely when they meet as allies.

Newerth has some old Dota ports that stayed that way. Dota 2 might return the favor and take some of Newerth's exclusive heroes and then fit it to the Dota 2 aesthetics and lore, it's just fair game. Not to mention, with HON's rather dwindling community, if the more popular Dota 2 showcases some of its more unique heroes, it might do good to some publication.

[[WMG: Enigma was the [[TheChessmaster mastermind behind EVERYTHING]]!]]
Would such a powerful being work for the Ancients? I can imagine even Kaldr being turned to them, but Enigma?

No. He has his own goals.

Enigma is an ancient. He was not sealed away successfully, but was weakened. That is why he can make eidolons out of people (remember what he did to that [[spoiler: poor alchemist?]]?) just like the ancients make creeps. Now he is playing Radiant and Dire against each other, constantly siding with one or the other. This is for their benefit, however. He is trying to train them, making them more powerful with each victory. Eventually, they will break out, and enigma will return to his former status.

Their leader.
