Chat commands - Legends of Dota Redux

Chat commands are typed directly into the in-game chat box and begin with a - character. Most commands trigger a vote that is broadcast to the lobby. A configurable percentage of players must accept before the effect is applied. You can also target a specific player by appending #<playerID> to your message (use -pid to find player IDs).

Vote commands

These commands are available to all players at any time during the game.

Command	Shorthand	Description	Requirements
`-antirat`	`-ar`	Enables anti-rat protection. Tier 3 towers cannot be destroyed until all preceding towers are gone.	Requires a vote. On the `all_allowed` map, 50% approval is enough; otherwise 100% is required. Cannot be enabled if cheat mode is already active.
`-doublecreeps`	`-dc`	Doubles neutral creep camp spawns for the rest of the game.	Requires a vote. 70% approval on `all_allowed`, 100% otherwise. Cannot be enabled if neutral multiply is already above 1×.
`-enablecheat`	`-ec`	Enables cheat mode for the lobby. Required before most cheat commands can be used.	Requires 100% vote approval from all players. Cannot be re-enabled if already active or if `sv_cheats` is on.
`-enablekamikaze`	`-ek`	Disables the anti-Kamikaze mechanic. By default, dying 3 times within 60 seconds applies a penalty; this vote removes that penalty.	Requires 100% vote approval.
`-enablebuilder`	`-eb`	Allows all players to modify their hero build mid-game via the Ingame Hero Builder panel. A 30-gold-per-second penalty applies if both teams have human players.	Requires 100% vote approval.
`-enablerespawn`	`-er`	Disables the escalating respawn time mechanic. After 40 minutes respawn timers normally increase; this vote locks them at the original rate.	Requires 100% vote approval.
`-enablefat`	`-ef`	Activates the Fat-O-Meter, a cosmetic feature that scales hero models larger as they gain kills or levels.	Requires a vote. 50% on `all_allowed`, 100% otherwise.
`-enablerefresh`	—	Enables cooldown refresh on death for all players.	Requires a vote. 50% on `all_allowed`, 100% otherwise.
`-switchteam`	—	Moves the requesting player to the opposing team. Only available when a team imbalance is detected or in single-player mode. Within the first 20 minutes only 50% approval is required; after that 100% is needed.	Requires a vote and a detected team imbalance (or single-player/tools mode).

Informational commands

These commands do not require a vote and take effect immediately.

Command	Description
`-pid`	Prints every connected player’s hero name and player ID to the in-game chat. Useful for targeting specific players with cheat commands.
`-bot mode`	Reports whether bots are currently in early-game or late-game AI mode.

Debug commands

These commands are primarily useful for diagnosing build or casting issues.

Command	Description
`-fixhero`	Forces a hero re-spawn if the hero model does not match the selected hero after the Wisp spawning phase.
`-fixcasting`	Removes and re-adds all talents on your hero. Use this if some of your abilities stop casting correctly after a build change.
`-printabilities`	Prints all ability names, hidden state, and activation state for your current hero to the chat.

All chat input is converted to lower case before parsing. Commands are matched by prefix — -ar works because the parser checks whether your input starts with -ar.
