The game has seen explosive growth from high tens of thousands of players into the millions.
You cannot be 100% sure, but it's probably around 5 million around the world. It's also played a lot in LAN parties and people get their maps from different sources (not everyone downloads from the Dota-Allstars website), so it's really hard to tell. I would say there are about 1-2 million ACTIVE players (all around the world), ~5 mill who have tried it and play it once a week or two (not very active, but still play) and probably about ~10+ million who have at least tried the game, and know how it looks like, even if they played only one game in their entire life.

What language is Dota?
English. DotA stands for Defense of the Ancients. fluent English is not necessary to play; however, it is necessary to read this response to your question.
Why is DotA popular?
Not really all that popular as a game. But for a warcraft 3 custom map, dota is the most successful and popular in that category. It is popular because there are 100+ heros to choose from. It is free. Unlike playing chess, dota has many options and strategys. Dota is not a mmorpg. which means those people that don't like to pay monthly fees and grind on random monsters will find dota a good alternative. Dota is not 1v1, it is 1v1 to 5v5. usually 5v5. I play dota because, to be good in dota, it takes practice and hardwork. it requires a lot mathematical calculations before game and good reaction time/game sense during games. Where as mmorpg. espcially those Chinese ones. you can spend few gram and the gm will give you a level 200 account or something is for kids.
