Is it possible to create hyperlinks to the ABCs? That will make it easier to refer to.

What is ||RC ? I've been noticing this lately but I don't get what it meant. You might want to include this in the DOTAtionary but I don't know if it falls under I or if it even is a Dota term.
Thanks!

IIRC stands for " If I Remember Correctjy ". Yes it is often used here, but I don't think it has any relation with DotA. XD

Nice dotationary! IIRC is often used in some forums, chat sessions and the likes. It has been used for long time even before dota arose.
