Trivia

[edit]
  • This item is based on the Scroll of Town Portal from Warcraft 3.
    • In DotA, the item is named Scroll of Town Portal as well.
  • On the August 13, 2018 Patch, a new Town Portal Scroll with a green icon made its way into the main game.
    • The item's active worked like the teleport of Boots of Travel 2, and costed only 50 Gold.
    • The item was available in every game mode until it was fixed/removed one hour later in a hotfix patch.
    • The item's purpose is unknown, but it was likely intended to be part of Mutation Mode, due to being added in the same patch that added the Pocket Roshan item.
  • The description of the item is a reference to the very first Dota 2 Gamescom trailer.
  • Activating a Town Portal Scroll appears to require the casting hero's blood. This can be seen in the trailer, and in a scene the first episode Dota: Dragon's Blood, where Bram draws blood from his hand.
  • Within the pro scene, using Black King Bar before using Town Portal Scroll is sometimes refered to as "Nightfalling".
    • This is a reference to the pro-player Nightfall, who is known for using Black King Bar before teleporting, even if it seemed unnecessary.
