Dota 2 team’s insane 0-minute tower push video goes viral
Dimapur, May 4 (EMN): A video clip about a match in the Amateur Dota 2 League (ADL) Season 31 went viral after one team made a never-before-seen 0-minute tower push against their opponent.
The team in question was Team Illegal and they were playing against another amateur team, Pot of Wrath. Team Illegal’s insane 0-minute five hero tower push saw them catch Pot of Wrath‘s players by surprise and managed to successfully take down their opponent’s safe-lane tier-one tower.
This might be the first time in Dota 2‘s recorded history that a team had lost its tier-one before the game’s timer hit 30 seconds.
Illegal‘s draft consisted of heroes that were completely suited to early tower push including Faceless Void, Beastmaster, Snapfire, Nature’s Prophet, and Abaddon.
The inclusion of Nature’s Prophet made it easy for Illegal to take their opponent’s tier-one tower since he can convert a small area of trees into controllable treants which can then attack the tower alongside the five main heroes.

As we can see from the video above, Abaddon tanks most of the damage from the tower and Nature’s Prophet‘s treants brought more damage to the table to easily take down the tier-one tower.
This insane 0-minute tower push strategy forced Pot of Wrath’s carry player to switch lanes to off-lane. It gave an early advantage to Illegal (before even the game started) and made Pot of Wrath work harder than they anticipated for map control.
Needless to say, Illegal went on to win the game 22-19 after a sick Void Chrono ult caught two of Pot of Wrath‘s players in their bottom tier-3 tower.
