In Similarity.. probably "starcraft Dota" .. or coined "DOTX" ..
In actually competitiveness and replayability .. Temple Siege =D

But again, as people has stated.. it "doesn't hold a candle" to Dota's Glorified beauty <_<...
Actually, I've been doing some research into Dota and its mechanic... I actually many of the heros having very.. VERY similar spells. But since they're seperated into those Taverns and into Good and Evil, one has to duplicate each class ..
So... in reality, there are 93/2 ~46 unique heroes...
Obviously, they are all unique, and have different tech/attributes ... like their strength and agility.. but I am somehwat dissapointed on the similarities of the spell effects...
1. There are TONS of buffing spells.. Spells that gives you/allies extra damage
2. There are "nuking" spells (damaging AoE spells).. for nearly every single hero...
I personally felt the spells could have more variety (altho the spell names are awesome)
Nevertheless.. since i have never played Dota, and I don't know the capabilities for WCIII, which would allow a much more diverse attacking system and all that.. so I'm sure there's a lot more variety
But the Items in the game.. Wow... it is cool =D... From what I see on the website, Items are a big part of the game. If you get killed.. you'd drop ur item... that's good gameplay stuff =) (lol at animal currier)
If only I could do items as freely as them in SC :C....
Altho, I still feel that there can still be a LOT more variety...
None.
