Want to learn more about the different Innate Abilities in Dota 2? You've come to the right spot. Every hero now has a passive spell, granting unique abilities that are persistent throughout the entire game (just like in League of Legends).
This guide offers a table listing every single Innate Ability in Dota 2, including a detailed breakdown of their effects.
What Are Innate Abilities In DOTA 2?
Innate Abilities were introduced in Dota 2 patch 7.36. They're basically unique passive spells that are always active—like a trusty sidekick that never leaves your side. Some of these abilities are existing passives you're probably already familiar with, while others are entirely new abilities you've never seen before.
