Trivia
A fascinating trivia about the Town Portal Scroll in Dota 2 is its historical significance and its roots in the Warcraft III mod, Defense of the Ancients (DotA). Originally, in DotA, the Town Portal Scroll was introduced as an item that allowed heroes to teleport back to their team's base, providing a quick means of retreat or regeneration. When Dota 2 was developed, the Town Portal Scroll retained its primary function as an item that facilitated rapid travel across the map.
