The Most Iconic Scandals, Bugs & Broken Updates in the History of DOTA2

#Fountain Hook

Fountain hook is undoubtedly the most discussed and famous bug in DOTA. Chen’s teleportation and Pudge’s Meat Hook created a massive game breaking bug. A bug which was used to hook enemy heroes to the ally fountain. Natus Vincere against Tongfu found their back against the wall in crucial The International Championship match. There was no possible way for Na’Vi to come back in the game, that’s when Dendi and Puppey decided to show the world the endless possibilities of DOTA. As Puppey, Chen kept teleporting Dendi back to ally base, Dendi on his Pudge kept landing Hooks after Hooks after Hooks. Resulting Tongfu to lose the game after Dendi hooked enemy Gyrocopter with Aegis. Brilliant, Hilarious, Game breaking, no matter what you call it the “Fountain Hook” remains one of the most iconic moments in the history of DOTA2. However, Valve patched the bug out of the game but until today fountain hooks remain the only bug to be used in a game of The International.
