Abstract: Legends of Dota (LoD) is a derivative of the classic Defense of the Ancients (Dota) map for Warcraft III, distinguished by its hero ability drafting system. Unlike standard Dota, LoD presents unique challenges for artificial intelligence due to the combinatorial explosion of possible hero-ability combinations. This paper outlines the architecture of an AI system designed for the LoD map, focusing on decision trees for ability selection, adaptive laning behavior, and combat prioritization. We discuss how the AI handles the mod’s inherent variability and evaluate its performance against human players and other rule-based bots. 1. Introduction The Dota: Allstars mod popularized the Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) genre. Subsequent “variant” maps introduced new mechanics; among them, Legends of Dota (LoD) allowed players to draft any set of normal, ultimate, and passive abilities from a common pool. This created near-infinite hero permutations, breaking the fixed-hero assumptions of standard Dota AI. Legends of Dota, AI, Warcraft III, ability drafting,
