Default Easter eggs


Now that the easter is coming close, i guess icefrog is preparing an easter egg for us but now i'm asking.
Was there any easter eggs in the history of dota? if so wich ?

PS: I posted here because i consider finding an secret thing "mechanic" not just "dota chat".

Magick Wand/Magic Stick easter egg is the only one I know about.

When you have them fully charged you have 10% chance that you will hear "My spider senses are tangling" or smth like that by ladder Crypt Fiend.

Default Re: Easter eggs

The santa hat wasn't really an easter egg..
Just something for the cristmas

The only easter egg i know about is the one that you had in the cristmas edition
You have something like 10% chance that your curier model will become death sheep when you change it.

Others? Plase specify version too.

I remember the 5 lane DotA map. It was awesome.

Quote:
6.50 Changelog:
===============
* Added new item
* Tons of code optimizations so this can be the new stable map
* Added capture the flag mode
* Improved Courier Chicken a little bit due selling change last patch
* Renamed Clinkz and Pugna
* Fixed a bug that caused blackhole to end prematurely
* Fixed a critical bug with creep rax destruction that caused it to not upgrade creeps
* Roshan now has a chance to suicide
* Tons of other misc old bugs fixed (way too many to list, many abusable)
* Improved cast range on Eyes in the Forest
* Due to arguments about who should solo, there are now 5 lanes
* Increase Luna's attack range by 10
* Heroes can now suicide if they click on themselves really fast (this is to allow for some improved game dynamics)
* Lowered Zeus Agility by 3 and increased Intelligence by 2
* Naga Siren allies now falls asleep for half the duration of enemies with Song of the Siren (to prevent abuses)
* Auto Attacking is now automatically disabled for your hero if the game engine detects you using Attack/Halt frequently. It is turned back on in a 10 minutes.
* Enchantress Impetus now deals physical damage type instead of pure. She has 35 more attack range to compensate
* Improved Siege unit models


Notes:
------
- This release has been heavily tested and is now the new stable league map.
- Expect a 6.50b soon incase any bugs, lots of recoding went on this version to fix old bugs.
- I jumped to version 6.50 instead of 6.44 due to the hacked versions out there.

- More new content very soon, this was released quickly in order to give leagues an updated map to use.

I remember its changelog, it was more than hilarious. But I think this topic belongs to dota chat since we can't discuss something's mechanics if there is no something yet.

Edit: I finally found a download link that works--> http://www.engamers.com/2007/04/01/d...ril-fools-day/

That's not an easter egg BUT LOL NEVER NOTICED.
Easter egg means something like:
You chop a specific tree with a quelling blade and you get a quarterstaff.(or something similar)
The thing with Roshan suiciding is kinda easter egg.

That's not an easter egg -.- That's just straight up retarded. An easter egg is when something is shown or happens that doesn't effect the game but just something silly or hidden. So Icefrog's avatar on Jugg's flag on the load screen is indeed an easter egg along with the "Spider senses are tingling" on the magic stick/wand.

AFAIK, the tingling spidey senses sound plays sometimes when your stick gains a charge. Climatic when you're nerub assassin with a wand and you dodge an arrow 'cause of tingling senses.

Other than that, i only know of the recent easter eggs, like Icefrog's avatar on Jugg's flag, the doom sheep or Burning Roshan etc.

When you have 10 or more charges on you Magic Stick, an enemy is in fog near you and uses a skill.
But there is only a 10% chance for it to happen.

Happens rarely, but can be helpful in some situations.

There was that mini-quest thing where you had to go around killing invisible IceFrogs just so you can kill Mega-Invoker. That was funny.
