StarCraft 2 DotA Rick Roll

Blizzard catches beta testers with one of the best Rick Rolls ever! DotA version .01 is all the bait that is needed.

Too bad the joke is given away by the title, though... Then again I honestly don't see how an alternative title could attract more people. Still, nice prank by Blizzard.

It looks a bit suspicious to me... Not in that it was faked, but to me it seems more likely that this explicitgamer website made it? The uploader was immediately all "lol best rick roll ever, check out my website". I know custom maps have been about for a while, but I have no idea if this would be possible to do for an end user. Either way, I'm sceptical.

The map is not made by the website. The guy from website just made the youtube video. Anyways, just tried the map myself, and it's awesome how the SC2 editor lets you embed videos.

Imagine finding out about this in game for the first time. Definitely one of the most epic and unexpected Rick Rolls ever.

I agree that it seems contrived. The guy knew it was going to happen and had a plan to plug his website. His behavior is just so unnatural. And does he record all his games?
