what about just "god" ? ingame there are no full gods, so this is a short and simple slang for demigod^^

I like DG.

Demigod or DG is short enough .

Unclean Beast = Uncle   (there is/was a GPG dev named Unclean_Beast who was nicknamed Uncle).

Cats doesn't sound right; maybe just catapults, or whatever you feel like saying.  Erebus is VL I think.  Most things seem to just be abbreviations.

catas for me... if you say something like "wipe out the cats man, WIPE EM OUT THAT FUCKIN CATS!!!!!!!!!!" (not seriously screaming just for example^^) they will directly think you gone nuts ^^.

haha i agree with gnats3 ^^ uncle beast was the first thing that came to my mind when i first heard the name

i call erebus vlad but thats just me

edit: dg and demigod are fine imo

lol torchy the rest I'm fine with but torchy. ha ha ha ha ha . I'm sry it just reminds me of a little kid shooting fiore and an adult saying now torchy plz dodnt kill me. dodnt no why just does.

okay.

But they will gradually trickle into the community, and the rest of us who have been here forever will shout them down before their slang can get too common in Demigod.

Boulder Roll = Rook Roll.  Come on, you know you want to .

We the Dota players shall hereby call.

Unclean beast- Pudge

Torchbearer- Crystal Slayer

Rook- centaur brewmaster

Regulus- sniper

erebus- nightstalker

oak- treant protector

Yes, Centaur Brewmaster just flies off the tongue, doesn't it?  And every time I see that castle walking around it makes me think of beer and manhorses...
