Portal
A Portal is a gameplay element introduced in patch 7.33, known as Twin Gates. These are special teleportation gates located on the Radiant and Dire sides, allowing players to quickly travel between parts of the map. The teleportation spell takes 4 seconds to channel and costs 75 mana — the same as using a Town Portal Scroll (standard teleportation scroll).
