Trivia

 * In DotA, Rizzrack's hero title was "Goblin Shredder". Unlike his Dota 2 counterpart, he cut trees for profit and was not afraid of them.
 * His alternate/fun name was "Oroku Saki", a reference to the real name of the villain in "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" Shredder.


 * Upon killing vo_shredder_timb_rival_04.mp3 "If you fall in the woods, and I laugh, will anyone hear me?" is a reference to the popular philosophical question "If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?".


 * vo_shredder_timb_rare_02.mp3 "I'm not a lumberjack, and no, I'm not okay. I thank you." is a reference to "Monty Python's Flying Circus" in which they sing a song called "I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay".


 * vo_shredder_timb_respawn_02.mp3 "Trees? Why did it have to be trees?" is a reference to the ""Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Ark"" line "Snakes. Why did it have to be snakes?"


 * and colors may be a reference to the colors of portals of the games "Portal" and "Portal 2", another series from "Valve".


 * is most likely a reference to the mythological disc-weapon of the "Hindu deity Viṣṇu". The weapon's full name is "Sudarśana Cakra" (the transliterated "c" makes a "ch" sound) and it is considered one of the most powerful weapons in Hindu mythology.


 * While vo_shredder_timb_bottle_01.mp3 "This is my scheming face." may be a reference to the character Myron Reducto from "Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law".


 * Timbersaw is probably modeled after a type of goblin named "kallikantzaroi" who, according to folklore, stay underground sawing the world tree, so that it will collapse, along with the Earth. However, when they are about to saw the final part, Christmas dawns and they are able to come to the surface. They forget the tree and come to bring trouble to mortals. This very well explains Timbersaw's hatred towards trees.
